    Would You Sport A Whale Tail Like This?

    Close but no bannana. The corners don't go well with the corners of the bumper..now if it could be changed to match the contour of the bumper and tail-lights...maybe! You say it's worth a lot though? what's it from? Trans Am? (I'm guessing that's what T/A means...) EDIT - how the hell...

    Calling out, you Gutt-less, Torque-less 1JZ's !!!

    Sounds like an awesome event! Too bad I'm 725 miles away and 13 hours (at the speed limit ;) ) I can't afford that much gas :D

    still having OIL PROBLEMS. arent things fixed??

    Yeah, you'd have to take those piston's out. Any oil leaking that you can see? Another fairly common oil leak that you might forget is the distributor, or in your case the CPS or Cam Position Sensor. It's gear-driven by one of the cams, and as such has an o-ring oil seal that can dry up very...

    I can't seem to pick a comfortable driving position...

    I have no loop....my car's too old. :biglaugh: :nono: That's some good info, thank you! I'll try that. I did feel comfortable with a new position I just tried and I think the front of the seat was lower! :) Haha...possibly, but I doubt it. Seat full back I can't drive safely, too...

    Cobra Wheels on a Supra???

    Thanks! Actually that's great because there's a silver turbo near me I've been eyeballing but it has icky-ish looking american racing rims or something. Either way...WANT. I like those rims...not sure if they're my favorite but sure look good compared to a lot I've seen.

    Cobra Wheels on a Supra???

    Anyone have a picture or see a supra with FR500 mustang rims? Other than that post with the black supra that looks like it's going to be pushed out of the way by a train. Those look a bit different, barely.

    just found my next supra!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    that's awesome! Oddly I have been eyeballing a nice 1990 turbo (doubt it's a JZ but I guess it happens! haha) and looked at it the same day I found this thread. I might leave a note on the car if it doesn't move in the next few weeks, as it hasn't for a while and has cobwebs, light moss on the...

    Little black square in defrost vent..

    I believe that it's behind the little holes in the grille-like thing above the glovebox. There are some random slits that I imagine let air through to the sensor, though I don't know for sure. My glovebox is out already thankfully so I'll look soon. Thanks guys!

    I can't seem to pick a comfortable driving position...

    You think so? Have you had any experience with chiropractors? I've heard many things, some of which describes a lot of useless and often harmful 'adjustments' which only make the problems worse, needing even more frequent visits...

    Found a nice review of our supra

    I see and have already noticed the similarities between the supra and other cars, namely that Porsche, but did another company such as Porsche contribute to it's design?

    I can't seem to pick a comfortable driving position...

    Does anyone else have this problem?:icon_mad: I'm about 6 feet tall, and 160ish lbs, for reference. I adjust my driver's seat so often...almost weekly I imagine. More often than not I'm uncomfortable these days. I find that odd since all I hear about our seats is that they are comfortable...

    Little black square in defrost vent..

    So how is the climate control in the mkIV? Assuming it has this feature. I'm wondering if creature comforts are improved in the newer car. My climate control needs a new head unit I think, it's not controlling correctly and only heats up or cools off if I change the temp to one extreme or the...

    ***The Two-Tone Supras Thread***

    woah...I'm wondering how a panda would look with everything below the trim level black..., the rest white, except maybe the hood. that rear shot looks great. As for the two-tone brown, I think I saved the pictures from that thread when it was for sale.... I want to buy one I've seen locally...

    Does anyone have pics of a Flat Black , blacked out supra?

    Haha...I think it would be a real bitch and very expensive to strip and repaint a ferrari...and sad after all of the work they do checking the paint and fit/finish of those cars in the factory. I'd bet vinyl. I DO have a magazine where they wrote an article about rattle can flat-black painting...

    my heater will not work!!!

    Sounds good, thanks :) I'll give it a listen for servo movement, since my low fan speed is shot, and I can turn the system 'on' without the blower kicking on. I know there's a fix for that too but I haven't gotten around to it...

    Installing crank timing pulley woodruff key, oil seals, and pressing balancer on?

    I didn't bother calculating it out but yes, felt about that much :) It's still running well! Better than it has... I'm sad I had to fix it that way but...I'm going to think about a new car soon anyway probably. I took pictures of this though so I can share with the new owner should I sell...
