Why is champion different prices from any other Toyota?

 

[hvyman]

because they give prices at or slightly above cost for supra forums members. Iirc the parts manager i think retired owns or owned a supra.

All other places mark up the cost price by a lot.

There is also elmhurst toyota.

So how do I go about ordering them at a discount rate from them

 

[hvyman]

Go on supraforums adn go in there section.

Easy test. Put it in 5th from a dead stop and see if you can start going. If you can its bad. If it stalls its good.

well its start moving but it does stall still. but im sure its bad i cant give it any gas without it slipping unless im in first at like 10mph lol

 

[hvyman]

If you gas and let go of the clutch like you do with first and not burn it and it stalls then the clutch is fine. IF you can keep going and it revs then its slipping.

 

[Turbo Habanero]

k ill go try real quick and report back.

Also the Throw Out Bearing is the same as Clutch Release Bearing?

 

[hvyman]

YA.

Hopefully it doesn't take me more then a dy after getting parts to get it all together..
