My '89 turbo has been sitting since May. I drove it for a few days during Thanksgiving and for a bit during Christmas, during which the clutch pedal went soft and I couldn't switch gears. I'm sure it's the slave. In April I will need to drive it from Ohio to South Carolina, a 10 hour drive...

Just got back from the hospital. Here's what I've figured so far: Rod went through the block, shot off and hit the turbo. Blew up the turbo, deflected and made a chunk of the exhaust housing shoot through the firewall. It went at just the right angle to hit me on my right side, breaking two...

The time it would be in storage would be a year in the least, with the extreme probability that it will be more. What would be the best way to store it? I have a set of shit tires that it can sit on.

Yup. It's been extremely cold that past couple days and I can't get it to open. I've tried everything, including prying the shit out of it while someone else yanks on the lever. I had to try to get help while at a gas station last night, but no dice. Today I tried it since it's a bit warmer and...

Last night after changing my oil I noticed that the warning lights for the alternator not charging were on. I thought it might have been a fluke, seeing as how they shortly disappeared. Today I went to check my oil (7Mlol) and noticed that the wire that goes on the top/side of the alternator was...

This has happened a few times. Every now and then I will bury the pedal and hit boost. Afterwards when I am at a complete stop, I will notice a good bit of smoke moving from the rear to the front. It smells of just hot engine, not burning oil or coolant. This only happens at a complete stop...

'89 turbo is the car. The brake, battery, and bulb indicators on the dash are on. So I read up and it's the alternator not charging. I just did a fresh BHG fix, and the alternator wasn't charging. So I bought a brand new alternator and belt which fixed the problem. Then recently the lights came...

Just assembled the motor after fixing a massive BHG. Everything was assembled, and it was double and triple check. Put in a fresh battery, and it cranks just fine. But it cranks a whole shit ton before it fires at all. When it does fire, it is extremely sporadic and sounds like ass. At first I...

So a friend of mine told me that she talked to a guy who claimed he owned a 2006 Supra. This didn't fly well with me, so I decided to have some fun. Select: All, Read, None ShowAllUnread Your Supra. Between ****and You Me January 13 at 12:06am Got any pics of...

I made my second mistake: Buying another Supra. I'm running an 88 N/A, and I wanted boost. So I bought an 89 for a grand. It has BHG. Now I was planning on yanking the motor out, fixing the HG, doing a few things here and there and dropping it in my 88. The thing is, it's grown on me. The...

I didn't know exactly which section to put this in. By browsing JDM motor sites found my Google, how the hell am I supposed to know if that site is trustworthy? I don't want to spend $1200+ and then get a big hunk of useless metal. Does anybody have any experience or know anyone who does?

So I noticed yesterday that my engine temperature was high yesterday. It was about a 15 minute drive from work to my house. I check the coolant and it's low. So I add coolant. Today, I see the bird cage indicator is on. I check the coolant reservoir and it's very, very low. Both yesterday...

Just as the title says. It doesn't happen often, it's very random. I will unlock the door, open the door, and then the alarm goes off. Previous owner said it will happen and it's happening. What could be causing this? I don't think it's weather related. It hasn't done it in the rain nor cold, so...

So, this is my first real thread. I'd like to start off by saying that if this belongs in another section, I apologize. I'm a new Supra owner. N/A '88. I would LOVE to turbo the hell out of it, but money dictates everything. Without a large bank account, would it be wise to consider doing a...

New member posting up. I have recently (last month) purchased my very first Supra. 1988 N/A, everything stock for now. Hoping to get more involved in the Supra community, and possibly learn some stuff so I don't blow up my car. Eye candy?
