Hey guys....Just bought a three piece spoiler for my 1990 N/A. Do I have to buy the damn turbo antenna?? I know it has an extension to reach through the side spoiler on the passenger side...But the N/A antenna will also work but wont it leave a hole the rubber plug that will gather water and...
Same here! I bought ARP head bolts (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) and a composite felpro hg. Had the head machined. It was shaved 20 thousands of an inch so I put a 20 thousands shim in to get back to the right specs. Normally this isnt necessary but I had to do it because so much was shaved off. I...
I just got my 1990 Supra 7mge running again after head gasket job. Car is running great but my oil pressure gauge seems to read low. I dont really understand exactly how oil pressure reading is suppose to behave on the gauge. Is it normal for it to read really low like almost zero while driving...
Good idea. I will post a video. This car is completely stock..down to the radio. Its got 103,000 miles and is near mint. Lovin' it. Im not getting much done in my personal life right now. All I wanna do is Drive!!!:):)
Put a new head gasket in my 1990 Toyota Supra. ARP Bolts...Torqued at 90 FT PDS. Had the head machined. Put her all back together but could not get her started. Finally got her timed perfectly. (Very touchy timing) apparantly on tooth off on the Distributor and your screwed. Anyway finally got...
Engine temp sensor fell off. Didnt notice it until I had run at 80MPH for Like 1/2 hour!! Replaced head gasket. 20 thousands taken off head. Replaced head gasket w/felpro composite gasket. Put her all back together w/ARP bolts. Still overheating like mad. Since I got her so HOT,:: angry :: Do...
I had 20 thousands shaved off my head on my 7mge and want to put on a thick forgiving graphite head gasket (2.0mm-3.0mm) before torque down to cover the space between head and block. Any suggestions PLEASE!!
When they say to make sure u machined the inner timing cover. They mean when u work the block right? The head on my 7mge was machined. 20 thousands taken off. The block was left alone. But I heard talk about making sure the inner timing plate was machined also?? Should I use a 2.0 thick graphite...
Tks..I was wondering (after I take it back apart) if I could eliminate that damn shim altogether and use a thicker (maybe even metal) head gasket. Like a 2.0mm instead of a 1.4 thickness. Im not overly worried about horsepower or performance but I sick and tired of the over-heating issue. Does...
My 7mge keeps overheating even after a new head gasket. The coolant backs up and into the reservoir and then out of the overflow and onto the ground. Water-pump..Radiator...thermostat all seem ok. HELP!!! At one time "snake oil" crap was put into the system to try to seal the head gasket. I...
IM not sure it what type of metal it was now (maybe aluminum) but it was shaped to fit on top of the block to make up for the difference in the shaved head. It was made exactly to fit this motor(7m). It wasnt specially made. They were available, so Im assuming they are used frequently if you...
