Nic Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) Depending when they were last changed, I'd add the following to the above list, 2 x oxygen sensors, distributor cap, rotor arm and plug leads, fit genuine OEM Toyota parts for the best results and reliability. Also check the brakes, if they are the smaller calipers and haven't been overhauled for while a rebuild may be in order. Check condition of brake pads and disc wear, if you are doing work on the brakes new braided lines and brake fluid flush would also be worth doing. If you can get the car on a ramp get all the suspension components checked for wear/play. Whilst on the ramp torque up all the suspension and sub frame bolts. Check the repair manual, it details the service items/schedule http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/content.php?51-Repair-Manuals Edited December 6, 2013 by Nic (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) Check the coolant to see what minimum temp drop it can cope with. Fill the washer bottle with screen wash/water mix which will help stop it from freezing. Tyre condition and pressures. Spray grease door hinges, bonnet catches & locking mechanisms Edited December 6, 2013 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren_Whifbitz Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 All of above if you have the £££, if not just do the essentials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham1984 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 All of above if you have the £££, if not just do the essentials The essentials being everything in the list above, might as well get a NA-T kit while you are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich.2211 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 The essentials being everything in the list above, might as well get a NA-T kit while you are there. Yep, it's included in the 60'000 mile service. If your NA hasn't had this done then you can suffer from a severe lack of performance and the inbuilt 'minge magnet' starts to fail.

SupraP-Z Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 hahaha, i was thinking how far down the engine to go, might as well go NA-T while im here, im doing most things. My list atm goes like this: Spark Plugs HT Leads Distributor Cap Rotor Arm SS Braided Brake Lines AIR Filter OIL filter FUEL Filter Rocker Cover Gasket change/clean up weeping oil Was thinking i may as well change the cambelt while im there... Full fluid flush and change, oil, brake fluid, clutch fluid, power steering fluid, diff oil and gearbox oil Auxiliary belt Refurb/Overhaul J Spec calipers (New pistons seals etc) What else am i missing? i havent included the aux tensioner or crank pulley...are those expensive?

Havard Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Will also be changing all four discs and pads when i get paid. I got quoted around £130 for oxygen sensors....EACH! That sounds high. I paid about £75.00 each when I had my NA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham1984 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Rockauto in the USA do them for around £80 delivered, for two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraP-Z Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) I have found what seems to be a UK site for Rockauto...the prices are silly cheap! http://www.rockauto.co.uk/catalog/raframecatalog.php?ck O2 sensors, denso part - £22.35 for an oxygen sensor!!! im guessing this isnt an original toyota part though as it states OE style. What look like stock toyota HT leads (denso part) can be had for under 30 quid! i got quoted around £170 from my local toyota for HT leads....crazy! Does this seem right to you guys?
