Why not just drive it and enjoy it. Since the car is new to you keep an eye on all fluid levels, Epecially oil. Instead of tearing down a great running engine to check condition.. I would get a oil analysis kit from someplace like Amsoil. This will tell alot about enternal engine condition...

The toyota dealer.

If you are going to go for more power from your engine, Why would you go through all the work of doing a head gasket replacement and not use a steel headgasket. You would be better off using stock headbolts and steel headgasket than using OEM style gasket and arp bolts or studs. Just my two...

I would order new fill plug and gasket from toyota dealer and then drive to a shop to remove your plug. They would probably charge about .5 to 1.0 labor hour to try and remove. I don't think the cover will come off in the car. I think the diff assembly has to come down. If you would remove...

If you take it to a shop they can use the air hammer method. Alot techs use this method to remove a fan clutch from domestic cars. Just order a new fill plug from toyota dealer.

1st trick don't drain fluid till you remove fill plug. It is very hard to turn car upside down to refill. Use a quality 6 point socket and long breaker bar as stated above. Make sure you push on socket with one hand and pull with other. If it is rounded off to much by using cheap tools there...

What is wrong with a factory rear diff set up. They can handle alot of power. At the time the MKIII supra came out it was the Toyota Flagship. All the latest and greatest technogoly out there. Turbo, intercooled, double wishbone suspension, independant rear,abs,on and on andon. The...

I say take the tank down and do it the right way. Once you start doing short cuts and half a## doing things where does it end. Heck why run premium fuel? Regular is cheaper. Right. Plus it is alot easier to change the fuel filter with the tank out.

So are you really going to change out third members at the track?

There is TSRM Toyota Service Repair Manual in the 7MGTE " sticky " section. This would be wise to look at before you start each project.

So when are we getting together?

Why not use an oem timing belt from the Toyota dealer

I wonder how some the MKIII cars have made it 20 plus years with the horrible gauge set up. OH lets see AAHH. Maybe someone checked the oil once in a while.

I think if you are halfway close to Driftmotion it would be a no brainer. Very few shops have ever seen a MKIII supra. I would highly suggest a Supra expert shop. They can tell right away if you are missing something. And i would follow there suggestions. Or you could take it to some "...

Super clean 1989 blue supra on autotrader.com. 52k miles leather turbo 5 speed. All original. 27 pictures and it is GA. Far superior to the ones on craigslist. 6K. go get it. Straight body. nice interior. OH did i say unhacked on.

Buy factory repair manual and EWD book to start with. And your budget is to low for the list of cars you want to kill. However a 400 whp car is a blast to drive and will run or outrun alot of cars. Your budget can you get you that. I meant budget for engine and upgrades on top of already...

I would be think about getting a set. I would also take the top off more. If you have not had the targa off. You will be suprised. One thing I am going to get made this year is a cover to place over targa top opening when you park car to run in store or go to your friends house. I hate the...

I spent two years looking for my last supra. Drove several hundred miles a few times and looked at lots of more local ones. Most where way lower car quality than what i wanted. Pictures of the cars and then seeing the car can be two different things. It will be cheaper in the long run to...

Hey are you saying gauge is a POS like " piece of shxx" or a positive only gauge like boost only.

At an idle your engine vacuum vacuum should be 18 -20" on proper running engine. If the idle and timing does not change while jumping TE1 and E1. You can probaly will never see 10degrees of timing with timing light. That is ok. The car running at idle warm will probably be 15 to 20 degrees...
