  1. Great video! And I really like the sound of the car as well
  2. Alright, I can get new oil next week I hope. I have to order it and get it shipped to me :/ Then I will try and do what you said, if that won't do the trick I'll try and swap pumps.
  3. Okay, you learn something new everyday! I won't do that anymore... I will have to order dexron 2 oil before I can flush out the reservoir as there are no stores here that sell that. I might as well flush out the entire system. Is 2 liters enough for that? And are there any brands that are recommended?
  4. That looks absolutely insane! Stunning craftsmanship :o
  5. Did the test and it seems to be all good, thankfully. Did the test with steering left to right while engine was running and with ac on and off. Noticed when turning the wheel the whining gets a lot worse and at full left/right turn its very high. The tippex line isn't 100% straight as it was a tad hard to reach Before starting the engine: After:
  6. Fluid level is normal, though I have no idea if it has been changed to the wrong fluid by previous owners.
  7. Alright, thank you very much for the answer :-) Are all Supra power steering pumps the same? If I were to go looking for a spare one and get it re-furbished.
  8. Sent two images your way a couple of days ago :-)
  9. I have been having some issues with the steering on my car. When it`s raining outside the hydraulic steering pump will make a lot of whining noise but when it`s dry there is less noise. Lately the steering when at a standstill and at slow speeds has become harder. I do not exactly know what it is and how to find out what it is... - Auxiliary belt or tensioner going bad? - Wrong fluid in the power steering system? - Is there a wheel bearing in the pump that can go bad? - Could it be the crank pulley going bad? - Or should I replace the whole pump? The car only has 35k Miles on the clock. Here is a video when the car is at idle, the sound in the video is higher then what it actually is but I suppose it's not a bad thing when diagnosing it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugAbHjwRWmc Also how do I embed a Youtube video directly into my forum post?
  10. Thank you mate I can give it a shot in the calendar competition, though it`s a tad blurry.
  11. Looks like you found a very good car! Please keep us posted on the progress :-)
  12. Put the Supra in the garage two days ago for winter storage after a proper wash, I am gonna miss driving it a lot! But it gives me good time to get the Volks refurbished along with new rubber on all four corners. Anyway here are the last pictures I took before putting her in the garage.
  13. I read Dexron 2 on this forum and not to mix the two so I am not 100% sure on what to get and where :/
  14. Could anyone point me in a direction where to order power steering fluid? Having some problems finding something myself.

  16. The turbos cancel out a lot of the sound. Do you have a restrictor plate on the car? Ironicly I made a video today of my exhaust. BPU with an HKS High power system. You can check if it sounds similar to yours, though I would guess your car should sound louder than mine.
  17. Have you checked the Oil and radiator level?
  18. My roof leaked a bit by the passenger window until I followed the instructions under the arm rest. Here is a picture of it.
  19. Was broken and sold for parts right after the sale went through.
