All my parts finally came in the mail so now i can begin getting the car fixed.

Along with that i can install my new rims and tires and I already installed my new heater fan. When the supra runs again its going to make one hell of a grand entrance!

Hope the car stays some what reliable for the winter as I have to drive it and my funds are kind of low now after buying all this stuff.

good stuff doom, now get it done!

Good to hear man. Nothing better than to know someone is keeping their Supra in good mechanical condition. However, as far as a grand entrance is concerned, you are probably wrong. My Supra can hang with a 370rwhp 300zx TT and I consider it SLOW. So no offense, but your car is not fast, but keep the rate you are going and it should be in the future. Just remember, fast is a relative term.

Only advice I can give here is "don't cut corners" if you do it'll return to ahunt you later! (don't ya just love opening new parts!)

yea LEARN AS MUCH AS YOU CAN NOW cus then you'll be like me

learn everything after its been done and then smack your self for not doing it before

(valve stem seals, cometic, rear oil hose, vacuum lines under throttle body, o2 sensor, valve shims <- dont pull the little valve stem caps unless you have to and keep them IN ORDER, i didnt, now all i hear is that loud CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK.)

Well I didn't mean that I was goign to go around street racing everything in sight. For where I live my car is very fast comparede to all the civics and sport compact cars. I just mean with a refreshed engine and new rims and tires it will make one good comeback when it comes back. kinda of get tired of hearing everyone in my town always come up to me and ask how the supra doing or did u sell that thing i don't c it around anymore. Ppl know me becuases of that car now that its been down for almost a month its kinda of sad.

yup its a toyota gasket kit from Jeff at jay marks.


5W-30 is becuases im driving the car in the cold canadian winter -40 weather sometimes. Not the best choice but I don't have anything else to drive. Hope the supra likes the snow.

Emp: It will slowly get better as the valves recess a touch!

His clicking isn't THAT loud deffinatly keep you cam followers (the little puck looking thingers) in order though. Get a feeler gauge and make sure your clearance isn't too great between the puck and the back of the cam lobe. Ask a machine shop what the clearance is supposed to be. If my memory serves me well, good clearance is between 6 thousands and 11 thousands of an inch. Any more than 11 thousands will cause clicking when the cam lobe comes down on the follower.

heh the whole ride home at arround 2k rpms thats all i could hear when my cd player paused between songs unless of coarse i had the big o'll diesel turbo truck sound going on. i dunno what i did but after driving it arround for 500 miles up and down I-5 my car just seams to spool and respond better. i geuss it was the new o2 sensor i put on before i left and my ecu learning how to work all over again.
