    Distance between 7M and shock tower?

    When I posted this I knew the board's resident douchebag would reply with something proving that he has no reading comprehension as usual. I'll say it so you can understand - derp, the engine's not in the car derp, rather than trying to guesstimate based on where the engine mount is, I figured...

    Distance between 7M and shock tower?

    Hey all, hopefully someone has done this before and knows - I'm putting my engine (7m) together on the stand and the exhaust manifold i'm using is forcing me to add a big spacer to keep the compressor housing from hitting the manifold but the angle of the T4 flange has it pushing the turbo out...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Today I pulled the Supra into the garage to start swapping out my smoky smoky turbo... (pictures: turbo seals may have gone but I still won the 2-day trophy for my class :icon_bigg )

    Hunting a misfire - Injector impedance question

    That's true, and that's my fault for not listing all of the mods I have. I was just thinking that it would be obvious that I bypassed the resistor pack but I should have mentioned it. Really I was just bored and wanted to talk about how I found an injector with more than double its specified...

    Hunting a misfire - Injector impedance question

    Wow, and here's why I just lurk here and don't post. Of course I know how to install the injectors, they've been installed for years and working fine, with the proper wires tied together. Nick is more interested in arguing something completely different than providing anything useful at...

    Hunting a misfire - Injector impedance question

    The gradual change was most definitely due to the injector getting worse as time went by, I'm guessing if I keep ignoring it then the resistance will climb until it's completely dead. When you install the high impedance injectors on the 7M you remove the resistor pack. Yes, older...

    Hunting a misfire - Injector impedance question

    No, that's not it. What do you even mean by "wrong injectors" ? Is anything but the stock 440's is wrong? The injectors have worked for years, not to mention they're the same 550's that many many 7M owners have upgraded to... Anyway, I borrowed a 660cc injector from my buddy who has a mkiv...

    Hunting a misfire - Injector impedance question

    Hey, so I've been chasing a misfire, occurs at idle, not on every rev, randomly. Started a few months ago and has gotten worse over time to the point where now I can't ignore it anymore. Spark/coil is good. Compression is good (170-180psi in every cylinder). A/F (at idle) stays around 14.7-15...

    Mk3 maft Pro setup

    Full Throttle is still answering their phone? I found them to be way less than helpful in the past and now their site seems to get about zero updates. Anyway, nothing has really changed with it in the past few years since the last update. What's wrong with using the older information you've...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    If I could change one thing about my Tanabe exhaust it would be to have a smaller tip - People are always like "car looks good, get rid of that coffee can" and then I get angry and mean. I don't want to change exhaust tips tho because I like the "Tanabe Hyper Medallion..." etching on it...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Ha! I spent years looking for the Tanabe exhaust at a price that wouldn't kill me, finally got this one from a member here about 2 years ago... I love it, it's my favorite mod on my car - the other exhausts I've tried (generic and Raptor Racing) were so loud and annoying, the Tanabe is awesome.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Thanks! Yep, sorta custom, I got this body kit for free years ago but thought it was too ugly to use. Then when I was getting ready to repaint I decided the lower part of my front bumper was beat so I cut it up and fiberglassed them together. Also cut up/fiberglassed the side-skirts a little...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Finally got it all reassembled - just in time for the first snowy week of the year... (still needs a bit more wet-sanding/buffing but it's so cold)

    3- piece spoiler parts

    Toyotapartzone was the first place I tried, they said those parts are no longer available and canceled my order... that's the 2nd time that's happened to me on that site so I don't think their site really shows what they carry. I have another local Toyota dealer that I can go beg for help and...

    3- piece spoiler parts

    Hey there, has anyone had any luck recently buying the retainers needed to install the 3-piece spoiler? The dealer told me that they're all gone and they can't get them anymore, if that's truly the case then I'm pretty bummed that I waited 4 years to install this damn spoiler and the parts...

    Cheapest place to get rear hatch window trim?

    So those of you that have used plasti-dip on those trim pieces, it worked well and has lasted? How much prep did you do? I removed what was left of the factory paint with sand paper (also did the top trim on the doors) and primed/painted them and it didn't even last a year before the paint...
