Would you please explain, i'm listening to all advices and opinions, as I myself am new to the supra community. And not a real strong car background to boot either.
-
Yeah, i did that, was just looking for more current opinions.

I plan on getting my N/A turbo'd eventually. Hopefully soon. Would you recommend that i find a turbo kit for it? or Do a complete engine swap? My the entire car only has only 67,000 kms on it.

So, some of you may remember that my belt tensioner went and i fixed that. Now, right after, the car has begun making a high pitched squeal. Very similar to a bird chirping, coming from under the hood. I took my belt off and there was no sound. Then i spun each pulley and found that the water pump/fan is the one making a slight squeak, I'm assuming when its spinning, that the light squeak turns into a loud chirp. I then held the fan still and spun the water pump and found it is making the noise. So my question is, what's the best way to fix this? 1994 mkiv na supra. Thanks Vukelic.
-
yeah, i'm pretty relieved.

if anyone was curious as to what it was, it was my pulley tightener, in the centre of the front of the motor. and my serpentine belt.
-
I don't know if it changes anything, but when i turn A/C on the sound goes away, turn AC off, and it comes back, almost instantly.
-
haha alright sounds like good advice, we don't really have any good mechanics where I come from so it's tough getting a second local opinion.
-
Well if i do that, will it wreck anything in the car long term? Or what can i expect to happen over x number of years?
-
So if its a gearbox bearing, how bad is that to fix?
-
Well i may try that later, but the noise is really more underneath the console in the car, at least thats where is feels like it coming from. Close to the back of the engine. If this is also informative, i can feel a vibration increase in the shift stick and the e break. Around that area.

The air conditioning is not on. However i noticed that rpms dropped to about 700 after a few minutes. It doesn't seem to be only when it's in neutral. the noise kind of barely fluctuates when i press the clutch in and out. I noticed also the noise is not only in neutral and idling, i tried rolling along it first at about 1000 rpms and it still made the noise. Any other thoughts?
-
So i tried the turning thing, and the sound doesn't really change however there is a really high pitched whine when the wheel is turned all the way, both ways. How can i lower my idle rpms as well?
-
Also it has about 66,000km.

Just recently i was driving my N/A 1995 Supra home night when I thought I heard a whirring noise. I listened for a bit more but it went away. Once i got home i noticed it was whirring when in neutral, just idling. it sounds like its coming from the front, kinda of near the clutch fluid reservoir. I am not super car savvy so i can't exactly locate it myself. I noticed however my car idles at around 1100 rpm, and thought maybe this was too high. Any ideas folks?
