Well from what I pulled out... I wish I had some tips on pulling the lines as I could not get it out from between the engine and rack.
Looking at the line it seemed to be in one piece with no holes I could find. I wont know until some other parts come in if the new line fixed it. (Or if the...
I have the driftmotion line right now. If my banjo bolts had not been tightened by a T-1000 I would be done. I have to get a bigger wrench tomorrow as the other bolt is spinning. I cant get the bolt loose to save my life so Im taking the fan and shroud loose tomorrow to deal with it.
The...
What do you mean there are no provisions for the idle up valve? The lines go directly into the pump on both sides on the Driftmotion line as does factory. Only difference is the banjo bolts are gone.
You heathens do know I have 4 91 polished rims in the shed with centercaps? They need to be finished up but are nice and shiney. I have them in boxes in the back for someone who is interested in passing a spot of green my way.

Who is Brian? Damn every helpful person I meet either sells their supra or packs it away.
If you hear from him please have him shoot me an email or Ill send him contact info. I owe him something and never see him or Devin anymore. Speaking of Devin and his Supra have you seen him anywhere...
Yeah, I figured since the owner had a supra he was someone to get info from and maybe send the car to on stuff I couldnt handle. I didnt get a good vibe.
I ended up paying 32$ for 3 t-bolt clamps in 3 different sizes as I couldnt remember the hose size that I was dealing with (I was passing...
Not to the MD meet Im going to try to hit the local ones though. I have to travel to VA beach the 18th so Im keeping close to home this weekend.
Because they were 2.99 to pick up locally I wanted folks like cenessy and others to know. Good t-bolts.
Well after getting ripped a new one at "Adrenaline Performance" for tbolt clamps in 3 different sizes (I needed to replace the worm clamps) at 10$ each I have located a place with them in bulk.
Agri Supply in Petersburg off Wagner road has them in the piping section with all the different...

I hade the digital Dash in my 85 Supra which was an L model. Great car. The major issue I had was when the bass hit in the stereo the dash would blink out and not come back. I put in a huge alternator and dual batteries which stopped it though unless I went crazy with a test cd.

Go to vendors and look up mdsmotorsports. I got mine form them and its been fine. I think some of the other guys sell em but support a member vendor... Besides I know that guy will answer his phone and help you. (He did a great job for me with some advise)
Just be careful some mods dont help...
Im telling you my sons sleep mat has been very useful working on the supra. Heck my friend laughed when I told him the only reason I put in a strut tower bar. (I needed support to lay on when reaching through the motor as I hate breaking sensors at 80+ a pop)
Braided lines from MDSmotorsports...
I popped one when gorilla pulling on the head side nut on the turbo. I love my swivel head gear wrench though. Better safe than driving back to sears bitching about the bloody knuckles.

I havent gotten the starter replaced yet (freakin cold outside) But I have developed a tick under acceleration that is worrying me. Car has great power but #4 plug was carbonized to hell. (granted I have a feeling the all so great toyota mechanic at Priority put a fouled plug back in when he did...
I have:
a spare 3000 pipe and some intercooler hoses in good shape.
4 centercaps that are in great shape for 5 star 91 rimes with shiny chrome paint on them.
4 5 star 91 rims 90% polished that look pretty sharp.
1 85 supra igniter new! (free to good home)
2 brand spankin new yokohama...
These guys are on Hull Street in Richmond VA... Looks like they are in a rough part of town but they have a dyno.. Apparently an AWD dyno!
I heard about a meet up there saturday and was thinking about going to get a feel for the shop. Im working on the Supra so I may not go this week but...
Has anyone dealt with these folks. I was told about them and one of the guys there has an orange 97 TT. It looks nice but I am hunting a place to get my supra worked on.
It would be nice to find a good tuner shop locally for when my girl needs the full rebuild.

When I had to do this some very good supra guys helped me online. Im looking at you squid and Devin....
Get a set of gear wrenches you will use them all the time on this car. If you want to be cheap just get the 14mm swivel head gear wrench. It makes removal and installation a breeze BUT do...
