    Clutch release/soft pedal problem

    This is new problem for me so Im asking for your guys' help. I got in the supra yesterday morning and thought I somehow forgot how to drive a stick, then realized the pedal was extremely soft and easy to push in, and I only had to let it go about 1/2-1 inch for it to engage. Popped the...

    Stock intercooler vs. aftermarket

    I cracked my stock intercooler a while back and replaced it with an aftermarket one I had laying around. Its heavier and theres a bit more piping, couple extra brackets and clamps, and a lot more scraping on driveways so Im considering slapping a stock one back on. But before I do I was...

    Power steering belt

    Earning some idiot points here but I cant figure out how to tighten the power steering belt. Im not even sure how I managed to take it off when I replaced the timing belt during my BHG repair. Can anyone enlighten me here? The online TSRM doesnt really give an explanation.

    I need all 89+ NA owners to go pop their hood right now...

    ...and tell me in what order the distributor wires are so I can splice in my replacement plug. The replacement plug I got from the yard has black, yellow, green, and red wires if I remember right. My 89 harness wires are different. Also if they're not all hooked up can that keep the car...

    Crank pulley bolt removal

    I popped the head off the engine and my dumbass dropped a bolt down inside the lower timing belt cover in the process. I know to get the bottom cover off you have to take the main pulley off, but with so much stuff taken off the engine and the timing belt just dangling, is it ok to just stick a...

    Automatic Transmission won't engage or shift when it's supposed to.

    As the title says, when I turn on my 89 NA and put it in Drive, it'll go at first. But after its been running a little while (still below operating temp.) if I put it in park or neutral, then try to go back to Drive or Reverse, it won't engage anymore, or it takes a long time for it to take...

    Running without an intercooler (pics)

    I gave my intercooler a nice big crack a couple days ago. Today I took it off to get ready to replace it and I noticed that if you rotate the upper pipe it lines up pefectly with the lower pipe coming from the turbo. Even the shape of the pipe wraps around components nicely. Do you think...

    Please Help I really messed up this time.

    Tonight I got out of my 91 turbo 5spd and forgot to put the E-Brake on. The car rolled away straight into a curb head on really hard and ended up on top of a giant hard bush. It still starts up but then idles really low and unsteady and eventually dies unless Im giving it gas, even while Im...

    Rod knock-type noise

    I started hearing a knocking noise a little while back that sounds like the early stages of rod knock but it goes away when I step on the clutch pedal, then comes back a few seconds after I let it go. Throwout bearing? Flywheel bolt? Anybody?
