I bought a new 88 rear corner trim piece for an ungodly amount of money and then bought a full set of 89+ trim (did the tails because of this) made out of fiberglass for 265.00 from retrospect. I would go the extra though and get them out of CF if you go that route.
Retrospec just made a CF panel like this for someone.. was it you? Has the ties/blanks but not the holes for the gauges. Looks just like yours except CF. (just curious.. :) )
Yes oil is usually blue, but can look white in the rear view mirror if its not a lot. Generally, I put my hand in the exhaust plume and them smell my palm. If you smell the sweet coolant smell it can usually point to the beginning of a BHG. Heavier white smoke can be smelt at a distance quite...
Well, a failed headgasket would be constant white smoke (and mine was billowing white...), its better to do a CO2 check (kit is 65.00 on Amazon or I think you can rent one from an autoparts store) and I would really make sure you track down the short. Supras are adverse to fire... lol. I had a...
I was going to answer, but then thought I would ask for more detail. A tiny bit of white smoke or clouds? Why did your battery short out? Why would you look for bubbles? Does the white smoke stay while accelerating and increase?
Details.... and... how mechanically adept are you?
Your...
I went camping last week and on the way back I spotted 2 celicas, a Lamborghini, 3 really nice looking Mustangs (newer) and typical assortment of BMW and VW's with oversized wheels.
All I could do was dream about cruising in my 88 while plowing down the road in my 77 e300 Ford Empress...
Don't confuse price with quality... Lol.
Oem is proven. Your probably fine anyway because the 7mge won't overtax the drivetrain likes BPU modded 7mgte will.
I put a Centerforce clutch on my 87 solely because I picked it up from a guy building a NA-T that decided to go 7mgte. So I got mine for a...
Okay.. did you just hear the entire forum go... "I hear that man!"
I think we all get there. Just wondering are you also a member of the Alberta Supra Club? (I go by same name there)
If you have all the piping I could email you a step by step for redoing that intercooler piping. Bad wiring is a nightmare on our cars, I had my whole loom basically rewired and improved.
Looks like you have a lot there, just all jumbled. Good challenge :D
Just reread your message, my step by...
DM does carry them, but they are just a distributor. I went directly to Beech for them. I like to deal direct as possibly when possible. Hopefully they come quickly.
Looks really good. Just a note.. I used gloss black engine paint on my wiper arms specifically because they get a lot of sun and bug abuse (only drive in spring/summer). 3 years and they look the same as when I painted them.
Looking under your hood.. it seems you have an upgraded turbo already. You may have the 550/lex mod if the PO wasn't sure. I do know that the hardpipes for the intercooler are put in there kinda wonky... pretty sure that is the Driftmotion 3000 pipe replacement you are currently above your...
this puzzles me. I did the trunk seal in about 5 minutes.. no adhesive.. it just pressed into place. It is built to hold itself on from what I can see without any adhesive whatsoever. (unless you weren't using a new one and it was worn...) I just started in the top centre and pressed it on ...
The DP wouldn't hit without the 3/4" spacer, but then I would have to shorten the DP and swap in a 1/4 to 1/2" spacer because the turbo housing would be too close to the HKS longrunner manifold. The Lokar Dipstick looks awesome.. gonna order that. I like Wes' items, they look classy and do the...
Kk, will see if I can find one, if its like 60% it would fit. Right now it would be pressing onto the hot side of the turbo.
For the oil dipstick tube are there "bendable" tubes for that? I woul like to move the handle out near the shock tower but that would be quite a bend and I think my stock...
Its another..
Getting the SP6265 installed (on the HKS Longrunner manifold) and run into a couple of issues.
As you can see by the photo, the charcoal canister had to be removed. Anyone know of a smaller one that would work in its place?
Also, my oil dipstick wont be able to go in...
