    rookie rebuild question

    I would not use any gasket sealer "FIPG' from the toyota dealer except where it is supposed to be used. If the engine just had a dry paper gasket from the factory do it that way. I have seen several people post about rebuilding engine and then they have a oil leak. I bet they used cheap ebay...

    Clicking Noise in Between Gears. Input please

    I would check that the carrier bearing is Tight as well as your well as the rear trans mount and all the bolts on driveshaft. If you can have car on lift or jackstands and see if you can hear or see anything move while shifting. You can make some load by lightly appling the parking brake.

    A Starting Issue

    The one thing you move when changing the plugs is the coil pack. I wonder if your harness to the coil pack could have a intermitten open and when you remove it to take out the spark plugs. That harness cost about $30 -40 from dealer or Driftmotion. And, you are saying that you are not...

    heater core bypass

    To get one that fits properly go to the toyota dealer. I know the 89' turbo supra has a rubber cap on the heater pipe below exhaust manifold. My 92 does not have this plug anymore. This way you have a properly made rubber cap for the intended job. Plus it will fit the pipes in question.

    If you're an mk3 owner: How do you respond when someone says, "It's just not a mk4"

    Is your valve lash set correctly? And are you sure your balancer is correct. Good idea to verify this also. The outer part can slip on the inner section that goes to the keyway.
