    Will start assembling my engine in the coming weeks and...

    Without a boost controller and a properly functioning wastegate you will not hit FCO with stock exhaust or upgraded exhaust. With that turbo, you'll probably hit FCO in the 9-11psi range, which will be perfectly safe.

    Noise in engine bay

    Clutch adjustment - http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=CL&P=3 Maybe throwout bearing is getting worn out. Try the adjustment and see what it does after.

    Trowing CODE 34 after AVCR install? i have vpc.

    The AVCR must be providing a boost leak if it's not allowing 20psi while a MBC is. Either somewhere in it's system it's leaking boost or maybe you hooked it up incorrectly.

    Radiator????

    Also from what I understand the original radiators were available in stick or auto, but Toyota changed the design to all autos. It won't make a huge difference, besides the stock radiator is a pretty poor design (plastic). If you're modified you should seriously consider a larger all-metal...

    HELP! my turbo is smoking...

    It's fairly common for either the cam covers to leak or the CPS to leak, spilling oil onto the exhaust manifold/turbo. If you take a close look you can usually see some sort of residue where it's burning off.

    Coolant temperature issues.. Advice?? Ideas??

    If the turbo was leaking coolant that could cause problems, otherwise no. With the car cold, fill the radiator to the top and put the cap on. Start the car and start squeezing and pushing on the various coolant hoses. Generally they spring leaks at the clamp, by squeezing near it you can make...

    quick interior question

    Not sure if you can remove that stuff and reinstall it. Heat gun would be your best bet though. I was under the impression that stuff would not absorb water. Those are for the seat.

    87 turbo hartop issues please read

    You may have gotten lucky, but usually ANY cleaning attempted on the AFM ruins it completely. Brake cleaner does leave some residue. You could have a bad knock sensor or your rewire job wasn't perfect. The ECU is very picky about the knock sensor wiring.

    Soft clutch

    Flush the lines and see if that helps. Watch to see if you have any air in the lines, that could be indicative of a small leak.

    Wierd Code Problem??

    No 34 won't be linked to those codes. 51 and 52 won't always come on immediately if there is a problem. It sounds like your knock sensor rewire wasn't done completely perfect, or possibly one of your sensors is going out. The other code indicates you need to realign your TPS. Both 51 and 52...

    Intermittent starting

    Try jiggling the auto shifter to see if that will allow it to start. Other then that, it could be a relay failure (very uncommon) or a wiring fault (also uncommon). Double check the fuse, replace it even if it looks good just to see if that helps.

    Difference between the 86-88 and 89+ coolant sensors

    The only coolant sensor required for the car to run is the 2 wire on the side of the housing, this one reports temp to the ECU. The single wire temp sensors control the stock eletric fans, and the two wire on top of the housing is for the CSI.
