    What date did the 89 become the 89.5?

    Yes... like the section in the TSRM that details how to check and replace the heater core.

    Need some advice on buying a supra mk3 91

    Things that make me say "Meh" about the first link: - Rear seats not shadow grey? - No pics of driver's side seat bolster that's usually cracked or ripped - Not the turbo model - Auto slushbox - Parking by Braille tape around front bumper - Wiring harness poking out of console near the shifter...

    clutch options 8xx hp ?

    I figure I'll order one. What the hell, not like it's a drop in the bucket compared to the clutch!

    2jz vs 7m reliablity? hope this isnt too noob of a question.

    And how old is the clutch? If you've got 100k miles on it, then it's not unreasonable.

    Quarter Panel Vents - Do they do anything really?

    Actually, I'm pretty sure I just bought new ones from Toyota.

    1989 MkIII 7mgte Turbo Targa will not pass 2800 rpm... years long saga Please Help;-)

    Code 11 is interruption in power to the ECU. Often caused by bad grounds on the bottom rear of the intake manifold.

    clutch options 8xx hp ?

    I'm installing that same CM 850 unit right now. Are you using the FCV? What does it feel like? Do you still ease the pedal with it, or just pop it out and let the FCV deal with it? Does it affect quick shifts when you're already moving too?

    2jz vs 7m reliablity? hope this isnt too noob of a question.

    Crankwalk is due to single plate clutches that need a lot of pressure... which you certainly will *not* need to hold 500rwhp, so it's a moot point. I'd suggest sticking with what you have, with the biggest consideration being that you already have it.

    Available Room for fuel Cell

    The small one will fit in the stock location. The large one would fit if you cut out the spare tire well and welded in a flat floor.

    Looking for a specific car restoration site...

    Used to have it bookmarked, and now I can't find it. This place did crazy restorations... like an old Ford Model T, they had wheels machined out of Magnesium, then hand painted with wood grain to look original. They re-plated bolts so they had the original factory goldish tinge. They...

    Damped clutch discs vs solid hubs

    A couple points... IIRC, the spec discs are thicker, so they probably can't fit two sprung discs in. Also, there are a fair number of folks pushing similar power levels through a tilton triple, which is also entirely unsprung as I recall.

    Cheapest place to get rear hatch window trim?

    Yes, those three holes that hold the white clips. The washers come on the lower window trim. I was kind of shocked to see them, because when I pulled my original window trim, there were no washers left. A whole lot of dirt, but that obviously wasn't really slowing the leak down.

    Cheapest place to get rear hatch window trim?

    Stock there are foam washers on those holes. 20+ years later, they are usually deteriorated to the point that they are useless.

    Cheapest place to get rear hatch window trim?

    Plasti did spray is pretty awesome stuff, works rather well. If you want to get it from a dealer, try the usual suspects - Vancouver Toyota in Washington, Jay Marks Toyota in Texas.

    Capacity of stock fuel filter

    I think the stock lines out of the tank are actually equivalent to -5. I've run 568 rwhp through the stock filter for years - through the stock lines out of the tank to the fuel filter, too. -6 from there forward.

    My new toy

    Those are the Euro lights... notice the extra lights under the plate mount? :) Very nice Virago. No LED bar in the spoiler, either, that's awesome.
