I'd flush it ASAP, or atleast drain the radiator and put some fresh coolant in there.
Also if the total repairs for the "engine" are more then $1500, you may want to look into a 7MGTE complete engine from suprastore for $1500

im only spending like 700 or so its 350+ to rebuild turbo i spent like 250 on gaskets and 100 on random stuff ill have to buy while putting back togeather.

are suprastors engines rebuild or just sold the way they were found?? im kind of skeptical iv heard they were a good site but i dont even get to see what the engine looks like.

im almost ready to put the top end back togeather all i need is over sized oil drain plug wasshers and my spark plug wires that have yet to come in... should be here on the 21st


ohh and note to all oreily autoparts sucks dick! they told me all the parts i needed were dealer spacific( plug wires, and vacume line tube with a valve on it) so i went down to advanced autoparts and they had every thing just needed to order it due to the car being 20 years old.

anyone have sugestions on a intake system for the supra turbos? the whole stocl box on mine is in pretty bad shape it was sucking things into the turbo i could see pits and bent blades in the turbo along with coolant running down the intake tubes

You may find what you're looking for in my post from earlier on "Rubber Intake Armlet" there were some good links in there for parts of the intake system

After 4 days of work i have finaly goten the turbo off. not an easy job

i need a link to a repair manual can anyone help me with that? alot of things are harder to do without a manual lol

i need to take the exhaust manifold off now and replace the gasket and ill soon be putting things back togeather. i checked the old plugs today and they were all nice and even everything looks good so far : )

Sounds like that store/parts guy in particular sucks, because the O'Reilly's I work at here in MT has 3 different sets of plug wires and plenty of vacuum lines/one way valves in stock... In any case, it unfortunately all depends on who you talk to.


Probably your best repair manual on line is the TSRM. Factory repair manual for a 90, but almost all of it applies to all MKIII Supra's.

Ok I'm having a hard time finding replacement parts for my supra. I need the oil lines for the turbo and I still can't find oem innercooler hoses...

[916MKIIIx2]

For both of the lines you're looking for you can order online at most places that sell hose, cut to fit... or you can buy a ceap aluminum IC pipe set from EBAY for about 80 bucks. Look and you shall recieve

Iv seen ic piping kits but didn't know if they would be a direct fit from ebay. And. Have looked on plenty of sites for the oil return line or pipe what ever you want to call it ( the oone the one that connects to the turbo and has 2 pieces that goes to the oil pan and engine block) and I have yet to see it any where. I would just re use it but there's a hole in it

About all the kits you find on ebay are gonna be somewhat universal... Did a quick search and found these oil line kits for the feed and return. Can't vouch for the quality as I still have my stock ones on there.

I prefer name brand hose and fittings. Places like SupraSport and HorsePowerFreaks sell line kits as well; But I trust that I'm going to get better quality and reliable parts.

For the IC hoses you can just replace the old ones with hoses from SiliconeIntakes.com. Excellent prices.

The E-Bay "universal" IC piping kit sold as "CX Racing" (I can't remember the vendor's name) is nice quality. The kit was labeled as being for our year Supras... it takes a little work to get it all in properly and one or two cuts. I had to order a couple extra couplers which I ordered from SiliconeIntakes though. SI also sells vacuum tubing but I don't think they sell a kit for our cars... it's worth it to replace old vacuum hoses.
