    Driveshaft center bearing question.

    Hey all I drive a 89 Cressida. 7mge w58 3.9lsd. The car use to be auto and I converted it to 5speed. Car has a new OEM clutch. The car is really jerky when changing gears or just letting on and off the gas pedal. And I'm pretty sure it's not my driving as most other manual cars I drive seem...

    Cold start noises

    My pedal adjustments might differ a bit from that because this is a cressida and I had to kind of modify the supra clutch pedal to fit in there. But basically I have the correct amount of freeplay, pedal height is going to be different from supra, but the pedal stroke covers 95% of the clutch...

    Cold start noises

    Clutch kit is new so has a new release bearing. Which adjustments are you talking about AJ'S88NA? The clutch pedal is well adjusted if that's what you're talking about. The car didn't make this noise right after the 5speed swap. It's just started making this noise 1000kms after the 5speed...

    Clutch is brand new. So is pressure plate, pilot bearing, and release bearing. I did not replace the clutch fork I just took it out and cleaned it up and regreased it. I drained and filled the transmission with 80w90 castrol regular gear oil. Um in 5th it's hard to tell since the car is...

    Auto to manual w58

    I've been pricing out some clutchs mostly oem remanufactured and new ones. Now I know most of you say the Ebay clutchs are crap. But from what I've been reading all the people that say those are crap are boosted. Are they atleast as good for a stock replacement. Like it's just a 7mge with a...

    Auto to manual w58

    Hey all I'm in the process of a 5speed swap using a w58 on a 89 cressida with a 7mge. How would I keep my ABS working? I need a speed sensor right? Anyone have one? Also with a 3.9 differential ratio the speedometer is out. So is there a way to correct this without changing the diff? Maybe...

    Questions about installing heated o2 sensor.

    You guys have any part numbers? Or know what car these 4 wire o2 sensors came off of? I have no access to go through a bunch of o2 sensors to see what would fit. Also I do have the flange fitting to get a screw in o2.

    Questions about installing heated o2 sensor.

    Not looking for a wideband o2. Just a 4wire replacement o2 instead of the single wire it uses.

    Another should I retorque question.

    I did search before asking this but it seems that it differs depending on studs/bolts/head gasket/mileage/time. Okay well last year at this same time(December 2007) during my winter holidays I did the head gasket on my 89 Cressida with a 7MGE. I used ARP head bolts, Toyota OEM Headgasket, and...

    cressida front end on a supra...

    I don't think it would look good at all. The bumpers on the Cressida would completely kill the look on the Supra. Supras look good the way they are. And that Soapra is super nice, been awhile since I've seen an updated picture of it. Keep the Cressida and turn it into a sleeper.

    Hey all I need a picture of what the rear strut mount looks like and how the spring is seated to it. Reason for this is because I am using MA70 rear springs on a MX83 Cressida with supra struts and springs on the cressida strut mount. But the springs differ a little mainly in the way they...

Right now I have the Ford LSD additive with Castrol 80W90 Hypoc C gear oil (I think it's mineral type oil). And I've had it in there for about 30 000kms now and I just checked the maintenance schedule...

    Auto tranny problem (A340E)

    Sorry if I sounded like the know it all type. I've checked my coolant temp sensor for resistance and it's good from cold start up to fully warmed up. I've checked the resistance at the ecu connector and its pretty damn close to the reading at the sensor. So I would say the coolant temperature...
