shipping would maybe be another $5 on something that small
for those trying to repair their resistors, Are you trying to apply solder to the coils in place of the ceramic paste? I hope not...
Keeping parts around isn't cheap. In this economy, the leaner the process, the better for the bottom line. Cutting spares inventory is a no-brainer. Sucks for us, but compared to many other vehicles, we still have a ton of parts readily available.
We need a sticky, I'm tired of doing this.
1.) Pop out the threaded inserts in the rear calipers. Measure all dimensions. Also measure the centre to centre spacing of the holes on the mk3 caliper.
2.) Measure the brake rotor bores of mk3 and mk4 rotors.
3.) Go to your local machine shop...
Are you going for a two-pin jumper (i.e. for the check engine light) or something that plugs into each female pin? If going for the former, a paperclip has always worked for me.
With that said, I can check compatability next time I'm around my stash of spare parts.
I don't think you understand how an alignment works.
They put your car on a rack and measure the alignment of the wheels relative to the ground. Stock "settings" still apply. While lowering can result in the "ideal" alignment settings being beyond the range of adjustement, generally the...
agreed. the hotter you can get the tip, the less time you have to have the soldering iron in contact with the wire, minimizing the melting/stiffening of the wire covering.
the difference between a temp controlled soldering station and a cheap iron is night and day.
mine took a good whack with a large socket to get in there...chipped a little off the side, but nothing that affected the contact with the shifter ball.
If you can source a set of mkiv turbo rear calipers and rotors for cheap (mine were ~450 including a cylinder rebuild kits), and can enlist the discount services of a machinist, the two-piston mkiv rear upgrade is a cost-effective upgrade option.
Otherwise, look into a rebuild kit for the rear...
you need to do a little bit of research and stop being scared by things you don't know. Setting the TPS is extremely easy, you need a feeler gauge and voltmeter. Then, use this:http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=101
Your problem does sound like the ISC valve...
Here it is in the car
I'm actually surprised how much of a difference the wheel has made. At low speed, there is no longer any rough-road/leg movement induced bucking. Taking off from a stop is much easier as well. I'm going to look into getting a small run of these made (and possibly a...
