    Emergency Brake Light On

    Lately my emergency brake light has been on constantly. I make sure that the e-brake is disabled and that my fluid is good. As far as I can tell, none of the brakes are having any trouble. What else could this light be indicating? Or is it possible the sensor for the lever is broken? I've...

    Coilover Suggestions

    I have an 88 turbo, and I'm looking to get coilover suspension. I don't need much, just something that will handle well and keep my tires from rubbing (I have very low clearance). I'm looking for something in the $1K item. I've heard that the Megan Tracks are good. Any suggestions / owner...

    New Turbo-A decals

    I just picked up some Turbo A decals from Toyota for my MKIII project. One thing's sure I'm going to need to get one heckuva nice paint job before I go sticking these on :icon_bigg

    Need thread diameter/pitch of heater union pipe

    I recently took my head to a machinist to get resurfaced. In the process he stripped the threads out of the head where the heater union threads in. I've already straightened things out with the machinist and am not looking for solutions, I simply need the diameter and pitch to re-tap and...

    New Supra Owner

    I have just purchased an 88 Turbo with targa top. My brother has owned Supras and that is why I was interested in getting one. The car that I've purchased has a blown head gasket, but we're looking into replacing the entire engine. The interior and exterior of the car are in very good...
