    1989 MkIII Supra often refuse to crank over when hot

    I've been battling this issue recently with my mk3. 1jz 1989 with a R154. It started to refuse to crank over randomly when the engine is warm/hot. At first it was rare but now it's almost everytime the engine is hot. I redid the wiring harness last year, so i'm pretty confident the starter is...

    1jz-gte from a jza70 in a ma70 1989. I was running a ms3pro, 800 sard injectors, stock ignition components including the igniter. I decided to make a new engine harness, swap the injectors for mk4 550cc(plus a resistor pack) and now I have a very very weak and orange spark. I can start the...

    1989 canadian mk3 turbo mt with a 1jz. I used DM 1jz/2jz mk3 mount bracket for the swap, however the engine wouldn't go in until I gave the firewall a bit of a beating near the area where the A/C evaporator rest agains't. It barely got in and the rear turbo intake pipe was always touching the...

    1jz boost dropping at high rpm

    here is my problem. Without boost controller it will spool to 11psi and stay there. With a turbosmart tee manual boost controller with added boost, it will spike to 14~16 psi then drop back to 11 psi by the time I get to 5500rpm (and all the way to 7500). Then I removed the "gate system" from...

    1jzgte 89 supra swap woes (Leaking FPR and no dash illumination)

    Hello I recently swapped a 1jz-gte from a jza70 into my 89 turbo. I have two or three remaining issues. First is that my fpr is leaking where it bolt into the steel block (with the fuel feed hose). I tried changing the crush-washers but it still leaked a bit. How can I fix it permanently...

Everything is good until the car get warmed up to operating temps, then for like a minute or two, when I hold a constant speed, the car will let off the throttle and snap on it, kind of like fuel cut (but it isn't) and MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH less aggressive and...

    Coolant leaking, heater bypass?

    This is not a joke, my hose blew while on a roadtrip and somebody took that picture, now that this has been fixed. I circled in red a hose coming from the back of the head, to a black module of some kind, with another coolant hose going from that module, into the firewall. I'm guessing this...
