    should I drive it for a certain amount of miles after this or just be sure to go though all the gears a few times?

    Shifting to reverse problematic

    This is exactly as I have done it since I started driving a manual... doesn't work for the supra unless I shift to another gear then without letting go of clutch shift into reverse. actually I usually end up waiting more than 1-2 seconds, probably closer to 5 or 6, is that what I am doing...

    Shifting to reverse problematic

    yeah... drain and dump in the stick, but I was gonna get it checked for leaks anyways, and hopefully the shop will clean and do a 100% flush out... should I just do it myself? is the "100 percent flush, and clean" a rip off? Either way I have to order redline online so I was hoping someone...

    Shifting to reverse problematic

    by that I meant that if it has happened to others then others are more likely to have a solution. :) If I post symptoms and no one has seen them on a supra before, then something is probably really wrong because this forum has more knowledge of this particuar car than toyota/any garage :love:

    Shifting to reverse problematic

    Also I have my air intake looking like this: does anyone know what specific part that is? I do not want to take duct tape off the previous owner put on until I can replace the part. Thanks!

    Shifting to reverse problematic

    When I start my car it is inside a garage and I must backup... if I put the clutch down (obviously all the way) and attempt to put the car in reverse, I get a noise (not very loud, but a grinding, with vibrations I can feel in the drivers seat) and then it shifts and runs fine. When I Push...

    The funny part is that it's still the fastest car in the school's parking lot (minus the rich kid's CL55 AMG :icon_evil) and as for a 7mgte swap... I will never have enough money, as I would need to buy the engine and pay someone else to install it as I do not have the know how, If I ever...
