I'd try changing that first...

What was the average price for a brand new 1989 7MGE MKIII Supra back when it rolled out of the factory gates and, what would that be in todays money?

Good for you!!!

I'd be fascinated to see how you get on and what sort of performance you get out of it.

What sort of motor are you using?

Keep us posted with lots of piccies.

Aha, is this why I am getting only about 17 mpg? The PWR button next to the gearstick.

I'm going to try switching overdrive on and see if that saves my gas..

Thanks :)

Buttons

Just a quick question that is probably really obvious but, if you don't ask, you'll never find out.

Radiator problems

I have a 1989 MK3 Supra (7MGE) with a blown radiator.

Thanks in...

When the coolant system is fully pressurised, i.e. when the engine is good and hot how hard should it be to squeeze the radiator hose?
