eave a comment brakes for the toyota supra ma 70 here an image of the original sales leaflet by toyota germany you can see the brake disk the five connection bolts and the brake caliper braking system not the parking brake the braking system of the toyota supra consists of a hydraulically operated front and rear disc brake systems the toyota supra has had disc brakes since the introduction of the first one 2000 gt some normal cars don t have disc brakes but drum brakes disc brakes are normally for high performance cars or racing cars exactly just like the toyota supra there are some cars available having disc brakes only at the front wheels the rear brakes are equipped with drum brakes for example my neighbor s car a bmw 3 series note that most braking power is applied to the front wheels normally around 60 to 70 depending on car and engine specs the whole braking system of the toyota supra mk3 is managed by an a b s computer this computer constantly checks if the wheels still spin when you hit the brakes when the wheels don t spin anymore the a b s actuator will release some pressure from the brakes so the wheels get a chance to spin again now you all people want to know why this is right well when wheels don t spin you cannot use them to steer and the last thing you want when braking is that you can not avoid any obstacles nearby or coming closer to monitor the speed your wheels are turning around with both the front wheels are equipped with a speed sensor the rear wheels share one sensor which is located just after the transmission which goes into the differential maintenance the only maintenance i m familiar with at the moment is replacing the brake pads these pads look like this the brake pad you see on the top is the rear brake pad this on has the dimensions of w 125 5 mm h 42 0 mm t 15 5 mm the brake pad down is the front brake pad this one is bigger because the braking force applied on the front wheels is bigger the dimensions for this pad are w 125 5 mm h 56 0 mm t 15 0 mm you can easily replace your brake pads with new stock ones this is an easy job to do yourself the first wheel will take you about two hours and every next wheel you ll do will take less than 15 minutes the part numbers for the braking pads are in my country the netherlands please supply me with part numbers in your country when they are different 0446614030 set braking pads 4 for front 0446614110 set braking pads 4 for rear replacing the brake pads this is the procedure for replacing the brake pads securely park and block your car loosen the bolts for the wheel to be removed a little lift the car using a jack secure the car with wooden blocks or something else so if the jack fails falls collapses the car won t fall on your foot or something remove the five bolts you just have loosen and remove the wheel this is how the car will look when you remove the wheel except for the black plastic i used while painting my calipers now remove the bolt that s on the inside of the car the one nearest to the ground you can now open the caliper this is the caliper while being opened yes people you are right this is the wheel on the other side that s because you have to replace the pads on both rear wheels or both front wheels never replace only left or right side now remove the caliper and gently lay it on something high enough for example some wooden blocks like in the picture don t bother removing the brake fluid line this is not an option takes you a hell of a time to fill up the whole brake line system with new fluid now gently remove the metal springs from the brake pads these springs are there to unbrake when you remove your foot from the brake pedal pull out the brake bads and check if they are really that worn as you think the car should now look something like this except for the red paint and the black tape ofcourse take your new pads and put some copper grease on the back of the pads this is for preventing the brakes from making bad noises do not put grease on the brake part front of the pad if you do so maybe by accident remove it all fast braking and copper grease do not match it s very dangerous grease the pads a little up on the backside to avoid annoying sounds while braking put the new pads back into the caliper make sure you don t put copper grease on the disks or pads don t forget to put the springs back in i did forget it on one wheel and you have to re open the caliper that sucks close the caliper and put the bolt on the backside back in it s not a bad idea to grease the bolt up a little in that way it can be easier removed on the next replacement job now it s a good time to check your tires if they are still in the optimal state check for things that should not be there right rear tire had a big screw in i discovered while painting my calipers this can be in your tire if you are unlucky aftermarket performance if you don t want to go for stock braking pads but you want better braking performance there are a lot of other braking pads you can choose from i know people who have successfully applied these brands to their mk3 toyota supra porterfield racing brakes this company based in costa mesa california can provide you with carbon kevlar racing pads three different types of racing pads are available the r4 the r4 s and the r4 e the r4 is for racing applications the pads need to be warmed up as well before they can really operate at full performance the s in r4 s stands for street these pads are the most common ones used by many supra owners the r4 e is the so called endurance pad this pad is the best choice when you do a lot of racing for very long times hence the size of the fuel tank not an option bear in mind carbon kevlar brakes don t leave that much dirt on your rims which is a very good plus i would say my rims always are dirty as hell the order number for the pads from porterfield are ap336 for front and ap337 for rear tell them you need the r4 s type as the r4 and r4 e have the same order number the front brakes are 89 and the rear brakes are 79 axxis metal master pads this company formerly known as lucas metal max or repco metal master pads is from australia currently i don t have enough information about these pads nor do i have a website of this company if people can supply me with please do so general tires 17 october 2001 supras leave a comment tires nothing about tires yet general rims 17 october 2001 supras leave a comment rims for the toyota supra ma 70 it s quite difficult to get good rims for your toyota supra i ve spent over three weeks to find good rims for my car the difficult part in finding good rims is the offset or et value these are just two names for exactly the same the offset of a rim is the value in millimeters hail the metrics system the rims stand to the side of your car the bigger the offset the wider if the value is small your wheels will fall into your car a little if you put rims under your car with an et value being too big the tires will scratch on the inside of the fender especially when your car is either lowered or you take a huge bump some people have used the grinding machine to remove the little thickening at the inside of the fender but i don t think it is a fairly good option if you put rims under your car with an et value being too small it is possible the tires will scratch to the inside of your car especially the wheels you re steering with some companies specialized in repairing rims are able to change the et value of your rims they do so by removing some aluminum from the rims where you mount them on the wheel bearing please keep in mind these companies are only able to make the et value less as it is quit impossible to put some aluminum on the rims et values can be negative as well the right et value or offset for the toyota supra ma 70 is et 37 rims are indicated by more values than the et value only the other parameters include diameter this is the normal size people refer to when saying 16 or 17 inch width common values are 7 or 8 inch bolt pattern number of holes for the bolts 4 or 5 size of the holes for the bolts pitch circle diameter p c d the toyota supra ma 70 has 5 bolts for every rim the pitch circle diameter is 114 3 mm which equals exactly 4 5 inch this value is the diameter of the imaginary circle created by the middle of all bolts mounting the rim if you put other rims under your car than the stock rims 16 inch x 7 inch your et value can change a little although the et value is not something you need to comply with to the millimeter precisely it s more something like an indication one two or three millimeters change is not really a big issue when you take a very fast turn or something the tires can swing a couple of millimeters around as well the et value given for your car is the ideal et value though the following rims has been mounted under the ma 70 supra without any problem 16 x 7 et 35 16 x 7 5 et 35 17 x 8 et 40 under my own ma 70 18 x 8 et 40 please read the page about tires as well to get a good indication of what tires can be combined with your rims chosen related links general information about rims and tires the tire and wheel bible this site is quite an awesome site giving you a lot of information about rims and tires give it a look it s very informative suppliers of alloy wheels tsw very nice rims especially the vx1 model in europe also known as venom currently mounted under my own toyota supra the tsw site has a nice application page where you can see what sizes fits under your car as well as how they look under your car well it s more or less an impression it s not your own car of course and the bad thing is the supra mk iii is not in the application guide http www enkei com the enkei site i ve never heard of before but today somebody put it on the uk supra s list quite some nice wheels over here check it out bbs these wheels are quite common over here in europe especially under european cars like volkswagen bmw or mercedes can t find a web page if you know the url please email it to me general buying a supra 17 october 2001 supras leave a comment buying a toyota supra i m writing this page as a general reply to all people sending me emails asking advice when buying a supra a lot of people visiting my site do not have a supra and can only dream of having one currently well people the dream is over as second hand supra s are getting way more cheaper there are however some things you have to take in consideration when buying this awesome car here are the following things explained service history check if the seller can show a service history see what has been done on the car in the whole period of time and see if the car has had some big repairs recently maybe this is the reason the seller wants to get rid of the supra ask the seller why he wants to get rid of his supra check if the car has had some serious damage in the past how is this fixed does it look ok if you cannot judge for yourself have someone judge it for you has the car always been serviced by toyota is the count of the odometer registered in a lot of countries the car s odometer is registered every time it s taken for servicing in holland this is called the nationale autopas outside check exterior check the whole car for rust and dents places where rust are common are on both the doors lower part in the hatch trunk where the rubbers are rear spoiler all points where it bolts into the car the side skirts they are plastic but behind is metal around the taillights can be rust as well see if the car has been over sprayed to check this open the door and check if you can see any color difference check if you can see any color difference on the whole car a re spray can tell you the car has had damage check the windows are all windows marked the same or is one window not the same as others if a window is replaced the car might have been stolen or again repaired check the wheels do the rims still look ok how about the tires are they worn new tires cost quite some money so buying a car with good tires is not a bad thing can you see the brake discs do they look very worn or carved replacing brakes is not cheap either check the taillights is there any water in the lights water is not a good thing open the trunk check the spare wheel has it been used a lot a good spare wheel is never used of course check under the spare wheel is there any water or rust in here if you find this the rubbers on the trunk or the taillights are worn a lot of supra s have this problem check the targa roof does it still keep the rain outside the vehicle maybe you can check this by checking the cloth in the car do you see any wet marks interior move more into the car how does the car look from the inside does the inside look the same as the mileage on the clock if the car looks totally worn out and the clock is only showing 100 000 kilometers you might want to check if it has been tampered with do all gages still work some cars had a bad oil pressure gauge do all interior lights work and how about the electronic windows and the filler cap opener check the rest of the inside if everything looks ok engine checks open the hood and get a general impression of the engine bay check for oil and coolant leaks especially the valve covers are known for this oil leaks at the valve covers is not really bad but it can show the maintenance of the engine is neglected get the oil filler cap off check the state of the oil if there is some white or gray cream in the cap this might be a blown head gasket engine the other possibility is the valve seals are worn ask the seller if he had any overheating problems with the car check the color of the oil the oil color can be best seen at the end of the dipstick so take that one out as well if the oil is very black it hasn t been changed in a long time while having the dipstick in your hand see what the oil level is check the oil level for the automatic transmission as well check all other levels like engine coolant level power steering and brake fluid if possible check the condition of the turbo do so by checking it s the original turbo and not a replacement replacement turbo s will have some scratches or scratches on the exhaust manifold s heat shield because of the repair if you got the time get the accordion hose off the turbo and check the wheel play of the turbo s turbine wheel check if the turbine wheel rotates without any big problem test drive the car listen to the engine in a good stock supra you will hardly hear the engine to check the engine sound open the windows and drive near some walls do this at both low and high speed revs accelerate to about 150 km h if possible and hit the brakes as hard as you can check if the car stays in a straight line if not release the brakes immediately to prevent killing yourself better to do this test when you are prepared for doing it than when you need to do it and find out the car will turn around or not continue in a straight line at least check if...
