Just wanted to follow up with you on this, as there is indeed no wiring difference that I could find. Plugs right in. Now, the extension housing (tailshaft housing) is different as the speedometer...

Excellent. I much appreciate that information, as I've been waiting to swap transmissions until I had at least some confidence that the wiring connections are the same on both. Thanks for chiming...

To my knowledge practically any of the quality sealants (I like 3M) will work to seat and seal your replacement hatch seal. Just make sure the lip the seal is seated on is clean and rust-free, and...

Nope. It's simply to provide additional fuel for a cold start, only time (to the best of my knowledge) it functions. I'd pick up a replacement from a junked car somewhere.

Time to check all your piping and clamps if you haven't already done so, both sides of the intercooler and turbo. Hopefully you'll just find a loose section or clamp.

Don't suppose your car has the Super Monitor does it? Super easy if it does, but most Supra's don't have it (even 87's and 88's, pretty much the only years it was offered). If not, here's a link to...

It's a common problem with the MkIII, not enough voltage going to the starter through the ignition wiring. You can work around it as Interested says, but it's just that, a work-around. I've got the...

Hmmm... are you losing any coolant? Have you taken a good, close look at your oil dipstick and the oil on it?

Right off hand I don't think the parking brake hardware is available anywhere but through Toyota (if it's still available there). It wears out so seldom (and the shoes so thin even when new) that...

IIRC, the only difference between the two styles is that the 89+ trim requires you to get the 89+ tails and center panel for the rear corner pieces of trim to fit properly.

How'd the coolant look? If it's been sitting there could be a fair amount of trash in the system, especially if the previous owner(s) didn't maintain it well.
