After waiting nearly a month for a TRD thermostat, that seems will never arrive, I found another option... Cosworth has a new line of low temp thermostats, and just happen to have a Supra fitment.

I think jason was hoping one was 140*F but wouldn't fit.. I think 160 isnt LOW ENOUGH

I think I may go with the TRD though. Future upgrade eventually. need a water temp. gauge first

I am not worried about six degrees, that is within the noise in which most of those things operate - they almost never start, and reach full opening right on target.

Figures... I now have lots of choices. In addition to the Mishimoto 140, and the Cosworth 154, the TRD 160 just showed up.

Now which one do I return.

Actually the Cosworth cost more in this case. If you shop you can find the TRD unit for under $100.

What do you do when you have a small race car... overcompensate with a big trailer. Now with a 29' box we can haul two cars.
