Anyone fixed wind noise on mk3 supra??

'lo all

Just taken on a lovely new project in the form of a '91 supra..

At 60mph+ though, wind noise from the wing mirrors is terrible!! Is there a standard fix for this anyone knows of?

Here's hoping...

Huh? I can't say i've ever heard it, i can drive with the targa off at 60 and still hear birds chirping. Arre you talking about with the windows up, or down, or is something loose? I can't say i've ever heard of anybody complain about this, but bomex does make "aero mirrors", there about 1/3 the size as stockers and they give you a huge blind spot too, look nice though

just press the small rubber in which the glass runs (near the mirror) together so the rubber comes closer to the outside of the glass.

@ the service bulletin , toyota knows about the probs and changed the stay including the rubber for the mirror ....

Wow, thank you for that! I will have a look asap.

I've just spent 2 hours this Saturday repairing the rear window wiper... works a treat now, although a terribly messy job!

you can tighten the mirror closer to the body by prying loose the triangular cover on the inside and tightening the three screws inside... if it's a matter of a small gap, silicon might fix it

Those screws should be tight already, if there not then you were about to lose a mirror. Also, you do see the date on all of these threads your digging up right?? Most of them haven't been touched in over seven months and there's no reason to.
