More tension when door is open, to help retract the belt when you take it off. Isn't Toyota thoughtful ?
The should have spent MORE TIME getting the BHG problem solved.
By the way, after owning my supra for 6 years, and moderating this forum for about 3 yrs, I have determined that the headgaskets will go bad (leak again, even just a tiny bit) about every 3 yrs, or 20k miles.
I will do a thread on my findings soon, so look for it, I will sticky it in the general section.

So, is there any way to tell when the head gasket is leaking "slightly"? The head gasket in my car isnt a Toyota gasket, but it isnt a MHG either. Plus the bolts aren't ARP and I haven't checked yet to see what the torque is on them, but would hope that whoever rebuilt the engine torqued them correctly. I get to see them when I redo the top, but if putting a MHG (or alternative gasket as I dont really plan on putting in oversized injectors or a larger turbo) and ARP headbolts would solve the issue longer, I would go for it. I plan on keeping the car for about 10+ years so I do want to pamper it a bit.
