    Rear Hatch Glass

    A few months ago during the end of fall, there was a huge windstorm and a tree branch broke off and went straight through my rear windshield like a harpoon through cardboard. The glass ended up shattering. Since then I have searched local autoglass places and safelite and have come up empty in...

    The 86.5 with no general direction :)

    So, this thread is a bit late since i've started over a year ago slowly adding to the car. It is an N/A 86.5 w/ perfect compression JDM motor w/ OEM Toyota HG/bolts. After I hit a deer at 65mph, I reassessed what I wanted to do with the car. I am still undecided in which route I want to...

    JDM Throttle body using N/A upper intake manifold.

    I have a dilemma. I am currently in the process of a NA-T conversion and am using my N/A JDM intake manifold, N/A JDM Y-Pipe and JDM Throttle Body. The JDM GE motor that I bought did not come with a bracket that allows adjustment of the accelerator cable. The JDM throttle body appears to be...

    wtf JIC Coilovers

    So this morning, I begin my routine seasonal undercarriage and suspension cleaning as well as doing my breaks and replacing some bushings while I'm there and I find something horrific. 2 of 4 (both rear coilovers) of my coilovers upper spring seats are completely annihilated from when I last...

    Throttle Response, momentary hesitation between throttle and power

    I dont know if this is natural for all supra's or if its just my throttle linkage or fuel system and this is kind of hard to put into words. When my car is warm and idling, or when driving at a normal RPM say 2500 in 3rd gear, there is a noticeable approximately near 1 second hesitation...

    Strange idle patterns upon ignition when engine is already warm

    When I start my car, most of the time the idle is normal around 800rpm, but every now and then I start it and the idle skyrockets to 2500rpm and I am stuck turning the car off and on until I get the normal idle speed of 800rpm. It has a tendency to do this after I've already driven x amount of...
