The climate control module on my 87 lost it's low fan switch and the button faces are all chewed up and wrinkled. If I swap out to a newer years eg 1990 module is it still plug and play?

In the process of bringing my 87 out of winter hibernation I cracked the nipple on the coolant reservoir cap. Now it just sucks air and won't draw coolant back into the block when it cools down. Local Toyota dealership has the part listed as no longer available and asking at other parts stores...

Two weeks ago my 87 7MGE blew its head gasket and I’ve been taking my time to do things right. This morning I was going to pull the heater union to check its condition and replace the crush washers before dropping the head onto the block. For future reference for others the book says you will...

Last weekend I suffered the dreaded BHG in my 87 –GE. For the last 3 months I’ve had the mystery of where did the coolant go, usually just a cup or so that was missing from the reservoir. It had the occasional waterfall sound behind the dash but the temps were always stable until last week. On...

I have an 87 NA with 107K miles that I use as a daily driver and have observed over the course of the last year that my oil pressure on average (dash gauge) has been slowly getting lower. Based on what I have learned here I have been running Pennzoil Platinum 5w30 with Pureone filters for the...

Recently I went to a local exhaust shop looking to fab up a custom exhaust for my 87 NA AT. I went with the managers recommendation (my first mistake!) and they ran 2.5” pipe from the cat flange back to a glasspack, then back to a Flowmaster 40 delta 3” in 2x2.5” out muffler #430402. They...

What is the best shop in the Portland/Vancouver area to have my auto transmission worked on? I’ve got kickdown problems, slipping, erratic shifts, long story short…it’s hammered. I’m looking for a shop that will get it done right. Any recommendations?

Hello everyone, There is something about the MkIII Supras that I can’t get away from. Maybe it’s the styling, maybe it’s the speed….or maybe it’s just that I love the smell of brake cleaner in the morning. As of two weeks ago, I became a second time Supra owner. I bought an 87 hardtop...
