    Mk3 Supra diff and subframe design vs Mk4

    The mk4 started to use euro style stuff and design like differential vs subframe mounts/bushings. The mk3 is more analog, still it is the same as quite as the mk4 during it's operation. The mk3 diff is better secured on the A70 subframe than the mk4 is. The mk3 has 6 bolts/studs secure...

    Properly swap a V160 6 speed transmission into A70 Supra.

    Yeah, I got some pictures, but I was in a hurry after installation and forgot to take the final shots. No worries, in 500 miles I will go again to the shop and lift the car for the diff oil change based on the brake-in instructions. But here are some pictures... My oem 1990 LSD Diff 3.7...

    Update! Car is running real nice with no issues after the V160 swap. All look good and smooth. Haven't had time to install the 3.5 diff, but I will soon. Will have to make a video soon for the community...

    DIY: R-12 to R-134a Conversion (How To)

    Yes, I would like to know that... Seems the auto-shops have two types 86-87 , and the 87 type. Which one will do for the 87+ models?

    DIY: R-12 to R-134a Conversion (How To)

    According to the TSRM and Cygnusx1 the LOW pressure port is located on the 7M compressor manifold isn't it? And the HIGH pressure port is on the hard line near the dryer/condenser...

    Properly swap a V160 6 speed transmission into A70 Supra.

    DIY: R-12 to R-134a Conversion (How To)

    Can somebody help me on that : I have a 2JZ swap. The 2JZ already has an R134 compressor on..., so the car's A/C system is left with only one charging port which is located on the hard line that is located on the right side of the condenser , since the other port was originally on the 7M...

    High coolant temps,summer time, A/C on, traffic. Optimizing the cooling system!

    The oem copper/brass were on the 1986-1988 mk3 models only I think...I always thought they were better than the newer style ones 89-92 and couldn't understand why Toyota did that change on the facelift model. They supposed to improve the parts/units not to downgrade, not to mention the aluminum...

    High coolant temps,summer time, A/C on, traffic. Optimizing the cooling system!

    Hello everybody... It may look that some oem factory parts don't do much or don't play a major role in a properly operating automotive system such as the coolant system of a car. In our case we do want to view the issue that JZ (1jz or 2jz) swaps takes a lot of space and limits the radiator...

    Properly swap a V160 6 speed transmission into A70 Supra.

    Yeah... it's something that I have in mind. Thankfully my Supra is a 1990 model and has the top oem bracing bars. But yes, a gusset subframe is a good idea...and in general a nice reinforcement !

    Properly swap a V160 6 speed transmission into A70 Supra.

    Yeap....hahaha. Well nothing to worry about. 5-6 years ago when I was swapping diffs one bolt from the right diff mount wouldn't unbolt and spinning like crazy. The hexagon nut inside the subframe that is factory welded to the frame come loose...and I create a service hole in the subframe to...
