I think mine take's the cake for stupidity award.. Ok this was about a year ago, when I first started to get into supra's and didn't know my head from my ass when it came to working on car's. I was trying to set the timing, so I got the socket set out and turned the crank to the tdc marks...

try driftmotion.com FYI: your looking for a 1jz manual bellhousing, 2jz's never came mated to the r154.

Thanks IJ! I was about to do that for the 2nd time in this thread..:biglaugh: anyways problem *appears* to be solved, I pulled the throttle today and cleaned it up and got my multimeter out and re-calibrated it. IDL to E2 with a .5mm gap was messed up. re-installed, and re-did my timing...

Yeah I'm going to recalibrate the TPS today. it's weird though, cause in diagnostics if I push the gas I get the flashing code 51, indicating the TPS atleast knows when the throttle plate is fully closed, making me wonder. Like i said when i checked the TPS with a ohmmeter i got no reading from...

Shit..can`t believe I forgot to mention that, BOV is recirculated. Edit: Hah I DID mention the bov! almost fooled me! :D car is a 88 7mgte, 244,000km, mostly stock with filter,3inch straight turbo back exhaust, walbro 255lph pump. its been sitting for a year. trying to get it back on the road...

So I think it is the TPS. I unplugged it and drove around and it idle's and drove exactly the same as if the TPS was plugged in. this was after I checked the TPS with a ohmmeter and IDL to E2 with both a .5mm and .9mm clearance between the lever and stop screw showed nothing on the ohmmeter. the...

drained the old stuff and put the MT90 in..made a huge difference, it's still harder than normal to downshift to 2nd but it'd manageable now. before it would refuse to go into gear till the car was basically stopped. I only took it for a 5 minute drive and could definitely notice a difference...

Could this still be a boost leak? or should I start looking at things like TPS and ISC? also ecu isn't throwing any codes.

yeah I was thinking about it some more, if it shifts thru the gears fine (a little notchy, but ok) when its not moving, but has a hard time downshifting when rolling, I fear it could be the synchro's, its most difficult downshifting into 2nd. I have the day off today and am going to spend some...

well I`m starting to think it might be the hacked short shifter..I topped up the clutch fluid and bled the system, checked for leaks, clutch engagement is much more smooth and consistent now. but it`s still hard to shift. I`m wondering if the shifter is the same for the W58 and the R154, if so I...

maybe I'm way off here, but sounds to me like your bov is vented to atmosphere. if it is recirculated..then I dunno.

car is a 88 7mgte, 244,000km, mostly stock with filter,3inch straight turbo back exhaust, walbro 255lph pump. its been sitting for a year. trying to get it back on the road. heres the situation, if i hit boost and bring it up to about 4k+ rpm and let go of the gas completely with the clutch in...

checked the socket and bushing, they both seem ok..I was suprised the bushing wasn't disintegraded. it must have been replaced before I got the car. anyways, I took it for another test drive today and noticed the clutch pedal is a little bit sticky. I'm guessing (hoping) I just need to bleed...

it's definetly not normal, it occurs when downshifting from any speed..i basically have to wait for the car to come to a complete stop to be able to get it into gear. and this problem does not happen on either of my other 2 supra's. I haven't gone past 3rd gear though because ive just been test...

Ok the car is a 88 7mgte with r154. the car has sat in the garage for a year since I bought it. i've been working on it and getting it back into running shape. so I took it out for a test drive today and it is really hard to downshift, like you have to slam it to get it into gear, this only...
