    Jeff's 1992 Toyota Hilux Xtra Cab Project (56K Death)

    Yeah the 3.0 blows goats. Thank you, I'll keep posting progress. Yeah, I'm basically doing a frame up resto, however I'm leaving the body work for a later date due to time and finanical constraints. Thank you, and I'll fix the pictures, I think I deleted them by accident. Thanks Rick...

    Jeff's 1992 Toyota Hilux Xtra Cab Project (56K Death)

    So almost two years ago, I picked this truck up. Seemed like a good investment at the time. The shitty 3Slow gave me nothing but problems. Some real morons had worked on the car and I continually found stupid performed by previous owners/poor mechanics. Finally the nightmare came to an...

    1jz harness, extend or reroute?

    If you are good with wires, extend it, its definitely the better route. If you think you are gonna screw it up, It may be better to have someone else do it or to cut a hole. That said I cringe at cutting holes, and if you do, try to find a gasket or a plug to fill the hole.

    Actor Ryan Dunn Of ‘Jackass’ Killed In Car Accident

    Its possible. Ive seen people walk away from accidents at that speed. Regardless its scary. I was always a fan of Dunn and sad to see him go, but he knew the risks and played the game anyways. Better him than an innocent victim.

    subframe bushing Delete?

    This whole thread is laughable. As a rule, if moderators are telling you you're wrong, you should reevaluate you position. They weren't appointed moderators because they were clueless.

    DIY headgasket questions..again

    Torquing or loosening head bolts out of sequence can warp the head. The sequence was determined for a reason, don't deviate from it.

    coil overs?!

    You shouldnt spend your entire budget on just the coilovers. Failing to replace worn bushings and joints, proper corner balancing and a quality alignment will cancel out any benefit coilovers may have to offer, and potentially even make the car handle worse. That said, I'm personally a fan of...

    ebay full gasket ?

    I would spring for toyota gaskets on anything that would be a bitch to replace, like a rear main/crank seal or oil pan. Its worth the extra money, when it means you wont have to remove a transmission to replace a seal. Odds and ends like valve cover gaskets, the kits may be worth a shot if the...

    New to Supra's, could use some advice..

    Buy a complete engine with sensors, harness, ecu exc. Get it in and running. Save the block and head for when you get power hungry. That way you can be building an engine the right way at your own pace while your supra is running. Then when your motor is built, you can pull the old motor...

    Fuel Pump Trouble!!!!!!!!!!!

    Is there any other kind of ecu? could have sworn the "e" stood for engine. Its under the flux capacitor, come on JJ, you should know this. OP: I agree in stating it sounds like a bad fuel pump relay.
