What holds the targa top to rubber pads. Uhhh vacuum? Nope gravity. Of course it has to slide into the front holders.

Just gravity.

One thing to think about a parts car is what I want off the car. We made my 88' look like a 89 -92' style. Found a 90' 1j swap car that had caught on fire due to poor wiring job. The head was off the car but we did not want the engine. Paid $500 we used the tail light and rear center section...

Parts car. You need every piece of trim around all the windows, full paint job with rust repair as well., engine rebuild and it has junk interior. I would love to buy it and waste tons of money and time. Oh and not drive it for how long. Buying this car to make nice is beating a dead horse...

I would also add a trans cooler and add a Trans go AW4 -A340 shift reprograming kit. My car had a higher stall convertor when I got it. Makes a big difference over stock. If you are blowing coolant out the overflow or loosing coolant the Head gasket is failing due to just a gasket problem...

Was wondering if you have the head off and what was causing your problem?

When you say "stripped" You meant "rounded off the bolt head". Is that correct? If so. You should look at some tool upgrades. Having the right tool for the job makes everything go smoother. Imagine walking up to that bolt with your 3/8" air impact or good cordless and 14mm impact swivel...

The trim you are talking about is expensive. I thought about having the trim wrapped with the same stuff they wrap cars with. It should be durable and look ok.

Yes a great system. Only thing that is a negative is the weight. I like the way they look almost like a factory muffler.

Don't buy a POS that needs everything. Interior to make nice is $1000 or more. Engine rebuild several grand paint several thousand. Plus all the hoses and everything else that have not been changed are due on a worn out problem car. Another several thousand. Some people will say you can do...

Your pressure plate is bad. That is why you can move shift lever at higher RPM's. Assuming for sure you don't have a hydraulic leak external or internal past a seal.

I hope it sells for close to asking price. It is about time to get some decent money. Really clean MKIII platforms are few and far between, especially 1992.

First step throw your torque wrench away that you used on cam caps. Buy a high quality torque wrench. Matco sells a great torque 3/8" drive that goes from 5-75 ft lbs. Great for most engine work. Then get a 1/2" drive torque wrench to go to 250 ft lbs. This way you do not have to get a...

Yes but you still need a turbo, fuel system, clutch, ecu and misc then tuning so the saving are not that big. 500 daily rwhp with OEM reliability is not going to be cheap. Ya anyone one can throw stuff at cars and write all day about problems. How many 500 rwhp MKIII are there that can be...

The camshafts have flat spots to use a wrench to hold. I have never tried 5th gear and parking brake. It should work. BTW If you use a chain wrench cut a piece of drive belt to go around crank pulley before using chain wrench. I thought it was a obvious thing to do but forgot to mention it...

When I go big. 2jzgte $2200- $2800 depending on the day Tweek harness $1200 USDM injectors. $350 MKIV fuel pump $250 Cast manifold signal turbo kit moderate turbo maybe 6262 some room to grow. $3000 Bell housing and clutch $1100 Misc small overlooked budget busters $1200 Aem plug...

Show us some pics. Sounds crazy.

Your way of adjusting TPS is "different" I would follow the repair manual. If you really have 25 IN HG of vacuum at idle your ignition timing is to far advanced. This will cause strange issues as well. Have you looked at the EFI section of repair manual. It is very helpful. Check...

Your Toyota dealer can get you the rubber cap.
