Ha, I wanted an '89 to be exact, not remove some stuff from one. I could make this a teal car, but this doesn't mean it is an original (:
Yeah this car is my daily driver lol.. This is why I am working so hard on it.
Lucky for me I have an extra car to use while I do this.
I will be...
Hum, this seems strange, I am not to familiar with the Supra's 5-speed system. I am pulling my Motor and r-154 out of my '88 to swap into my '89 if I learn anything along the way or can think of something I will let you know!
You know I have had a lot of people ask the question. " Why did you ever part out that '92 Teal Supra "
Well the answer is I dumped a lot of money into it. I bought a 1jz for it, and I spent over( 60 ) hours doing the wiring on it to fit my '92. The whole summer that was all I did was start...
If you know it was " truly " replaced then I would re-torque it.
I have had plenty of success with 74 FT-LBS.
When you do this, hopefully this will help the guy last a little longer.
Well, there you have it. I just thought maybe it may have been covered somewhere and I just could not find it. Apparently, this has already helped one person and myself.
Hey there Jay. Man talk about A.D.D i have plenty of it. I do get off task quite a lot. I will be working on the car and then more over to the engine, then Ill start taking off the rear end. Ha.
The power loss I am sure is now due to a inter cooler pipe. When I was taking apart the car there...
Yeah, seeing Supra's like this is never fun. I really hope I can turn around everything and create the car I have been wanting.
Tonight the 5-speed, and the motor come out of the '88 so I will have parts to sell to start covering my costs.
I take parts cleaner and clean the hole. Take a cue-tip and get all the gunk out. Get the compressed air blow it out to make sure. Put the Arp Flywheel bolts on, and use * red * locktite.
The Red locktite is said to make it near impossible to get those off, but a impact does the trick every...
Hey thanks. I am just trying to see how much I personally can do on this car. I like these cars a lot and this being my 7th one and owning all years 86.5-92 is also a pretty neat thing. I hope that is really going to be a nice drivable car, but at the same time I want to put down 400 Hp.
I...
Okay well! I started sanding down the engine bay to get it ready for the paint job. It's not bad now, and I have to get more pic's tonight, it's not as good in these pictures but it is getting there!
I have the chain fall holding the body up so I can get the lower suspension and sub frame...
I tired looking in the search as always, but nothing. Maybe I was not typing in the correct thing, I am not sure. I have the whole front cross member and suspension ready to go up, but I need to know the spec, I think it is 80 Ft-lbs, but I am not sure.
Would someone please confirm what I...
Alright, well I thought I mine as well get a build thread going. I didn't plan to do what I am currently doing, but I got lucky so I decided to make some changes.
I just bought a '89 Supra turbo Auto on March 25, 2009. The car has 130,000 on it. Well when I bought the car I knew it needed some...
Of course not. I am just saying that there is no need to continue something like this we now know, and it is time to move on.
If I was a MOD I would have closed it already (:
