Hi,

some things are done, i bought a cheap used TRD gauge cluster surrounding becouse a little bit bling bling is allowed

Image

Image

one of my targets for this year was to adjust the rear suspension but after 16year no toe adjusting was possible any more so i deciced to buy a set of pu-bushings, worked out the whohle arm and pressed in ne new ones, for that you have to dismount the longitude arm, the problem was the bolt when i opened him the whole bolt with the buching turns which means i destroyed it so i also had to pu-bush it but i doesn't want to dismount everything so i build a tool for that work

Image

Image

Image

Image

it works perfect and when it becomes to strong just heat it a little bit, but just to press the old one out

Great way of replacing that bush! :)

Good to see you are leaving the other bushes on the hub standard :)

The radius arm bushes are of a spherical design and they have very little "play". Fitting a PU bush will introduce a lot more unwanted movement..

Replacing the inner bush on the rear subframe is however recommended :) (in my opinion)

Rear radius arm bush looks like this...

Hi Kris,

i understand, after that i know why i was able to move them so easily 8)

Yes, that's the part... I strongly suspect that these are sourced from Toyota... part No T42210-14010

They are available from Toyota, I've bought them in the past :P

IIRC they are a part that is listed for the Supra... a friendly Toyota Parts man helped me find it a loooong time ago ~£35 each I think?

Hi,

small update

a modified underpanel with the target to raise the air flow trough the radiators and the engine bay

Image

Image

a small plate to protect the gearbox radiator connectors

Image

tomorrow i will mount a fire-extinguisher, and then it is enough for this year
