From my understanding (and please correct me if I am wrong), the factory ECU has a "stumble code" inserted for self diagnosis. The engine doesn't misfire, but it regularly stumbles at idle (about every 10 seconds if I remember right). I noticed this on my 7M (ran perfectly fine, just did a...

Another winter... and I missed driving my car again.. lol.

Reading this, I kept asking myself "what would I do". Of course.. in Canada if we carry a gun they will beat us up and put US in the garburetor... (spelling?). But I have watch informative youtubes about American rights with being pulled over and you gotta judge if its good to butt heads with...

If you can afford it, get the block and head decked correctly and go with a metal head gasket and ARP studs. Head gasket issue gone when done this route properly providing your head isn't warped, cracked, etc. and whoever laps the block does it correctly. It can be done with the engine in the...

If your going with an exhaust switch... I have the HKS catback with the twin tip muffler. Looks stock (but meatier) and has an excellent low tone but not loud (until I really crack it open.. then its really loud.. lol). Im not a fan of the huge chrome mufflers.

^^ This. If your building for power a cheap fix will give you a headache later. If your building for a quick fun cheap car that isn't your daily driver... have at it... do it cheap and you may get lucky. If you have to rely on the car? Do it right. Right aint cheap unless your an excellent...

Lol, that reminded me of Monsters vs Aliens where they had 2 red buttons. Both huge and red... Identical and beside each other. One to launch a Nuke war and one for coffee. :D

lol, I have an entire blue coupe interior (non-targa) from my 87 Blue that is in near perfect shape (leather) other than a couple pieces that were broke in the back of the hatch when it was hit. I may be pulling the entire interior and selling that (door panels, dash, steering wheel, etc.) at...

Love that cargo cover (w/e its actually called) Much better than the plywood one. What material did you run with? I know you mentioned it a bit farther back..

Personally I enjoy it, but wont do my 88 on our roads simply due to the salt. But I grew up driving rear wheel in snow, so its very natural to me. I freak out more in a front wheel drive actually because they are soooo much harder to correct after losing your steering. At least with a rear...

That my friend is snow.. lots and lots of snow... lol. Dan lives 3 hours north from me and they got hit good. You kinda have to use your mind's eye to picture the roof... because you can see the spoiler. Some people up this way think that they can drive Supras for winter. It can be done, but...

A mechanic working at a Toyota Dealership bought a rolled over (totalled) 92 mk3 for the drivetrain. Another mechanic bought the entire interior except dash, pillars and headliner off of him. It's all been neatly stored since that day, so the interior is in effect brand new. One of those rare...

What do you guys think my grey car would look like with a 92 mk3 brand new burgandy leather interior. Found one in storage since 92. Only thing mission is the Pillars and headliner. Perfect leather and steering wheel...

Canadian Cylinder head (they have a website) built my 7M shortblock. Graeme knows the engines very very well and does it right. George from Raptor Racing has a built shortblock from him as well. Very good work if your interested. Shortblock cost me 2800.00 CDN shipped (forged internals). He does...

Im selling for 350.00 USD + shipping (what I paid for them). If I have the clips I will throw them in free. These are like new, just cheaper and Im firm on that price. I have everything except the turbo for a BPU on a 7M.. lol. I am not actively selling them (as with almost all my parts). I...

I had all mine replaced with silicone vacuum lines (pretty red). When my engine got rebuilt, the shop threw them all out and put proper ones on without asking.. lol. Did it free too.

The only problem with that philosophy is that if your engine dies, you have a car to tow (at best) or could put yourself in a dangerous situation (at worse) depending on where you drive. Most Supra owners will advise against having a MK3 without having a secondary "daily driver". Unless your...

Is that a teal one? Nice... very nice. Winter has its icy fingers around my throat.. no final run for me.. (no car for that matter.. its still dismantled awaiting parts... )

The one time I had a lot of blue smoke on decel was my turbo seal going. Yours sounds a bit more severe. I pumped a lot of money into my car to avoid band aids. Your motor sounds like a huge hurt locker. To me the hint is that with the catch can on your not smoking. However it sounds like your...

There is far too much wispy description in what was done to really advise properly. Why don't you give a much fuller description of what you did. I thought you bought a "new" engine for your car. Confused why it would need the crank and bearings redone. Having said that.. have you cracked the...
