yeah i think everything is leading to the turbo seals going out. it smells like burning oil..also i just regapped the plugs and i have NKG wires. it could be the regulator. there is also a gasoline smell every now and then. i think i need bigger hoses than what u have running to my oil catch can from the turbo inlet pipe and the valve covers. anyone have a catch can with bigger hose fittings on them?
I am feeling ENRAGED right about....NOW. Went to a movie tonight and i drove the Supra. I parked it, come out after the movie and started it up.......my birdcage light is on. Sure enough I have almost no water/coolant in my overflow. It was dark so i cannot be sure that it didn't leak out but recent troubles tell me that i have what we call a ::bhg:: Now i cannot express myself in words right now but to say that im pissed is an understatement. I will do a leakdown test tommorow at work and if it is blown, I will be having quite a garage sale shortly....because i will not rebuild the 7M. I refuse at this point.... :madfawk: Im pissed
sorry to hear about that bro, i hope that its not a bhg cause that would just put the 7m on a lower pedastle than what it is right now, let me know what you find out on your leak down test
I will have some parts for sale very shortly.....but not for reasons you all may think! Should be interesting.....

My finger pointing towards a heater core or heater valve? :icon_bigg
the return hose from the heater core was leaking coolant down the firewall so I could not see it. I saw it yesterday morning when it I backed out and saw some pink fluid out by where my slave cylinder is......I just traced it up from there.....I just tightened down the clamp, so far so good! :biglaugh:

What do i win? i was closest to the leak :icon_surp
Val: Stock OEM main bolts.....how much?
I can get ARP main studs but i would have to line bore the mains but i dont have quite enough dough for it. Brian @ tachyon told me i can use new stock bolts and just hone it and would be just as good.

I'd prefer new from toyota val, I have my old stock main bolts. Just wanna make sure it holds together.
Well, i had a VERY productive day thursday. I put on my new LF inner tie-rod, and new center carrier bearing.......new from carquest for $95 bucks. Only problem is i had to swap it into my old bearing housing. Took a little over 1.5 hrs from start to finish and back on the ground for the bearing. IT FEELS GREAT ! no vibration all the time and my popping from 2nd to 3rd gear is gone. Yeah, im still working on the brake lock up on the RF but little by little its getting fixed til the turbo is back together. I will swap all the newer parts to the turbo when i get it done.
Lets get a meet together on Saturday night.......thats November 1st! You know the drill, @ sonic on beach @ 8:30! See you there!
Will be moving......hopefully ill be done that time of night but , you never know. If anybody wants to help let me know. Friday im moving all the stuff to my garage in my townhouse and moving stuff into the house on saturday.
Well, I got moved and mostly unpacked. Having a "house warming" party for friends and your all invited. Parking will suck because I own a townhome but atleast there will be beer and the grill going :naughty:. Date TBA but hopefully in the next week. Hope you guys can come out.
Will be selling off extra parts and peices so if you need anything let me know. I will have a for sale thread starting next week when I get all of my parts in the garage. Just ask and I'll let you know
