http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=1694 It's a wideband controller as well as a knock sensor monitor. I was curious if anyone was using one of these on a JZ motor. I ask because I've had one for a few years, but I've never been able to set up the knock monitoring properly, and the...

This is a work in progress. Currently it's only set up for back wheels, using some simple(ish) math. There's been a lot of discussion of what fits, and what doesn't on Supras. So, I made this spreadsheet to show people exactly how the wheel will fit...

So I've been randomly toying with this idea for a few days now..... ...I was thinking it would be fun to install a dry nitrous nozzle into each intake runner, and have it completely controlled by the ECU. Around say 2K, the ECU turns on the nitrous, then overlays a fuel map to add enough...

Woot! Just arrived this afternoon. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles original cartoon show, all 5 seasons. You can't deny it's awesomeness.

So, I was doing a little work under the hood of my car, checking my IC piping and such, and noticed this on my turbo: (linked due to size) http://offsite.lostjournal.com/rob/Supra%20Pics/gt40%20hole.JPG It's a hole in the casting right by the oil feed. Is this a problem? Would this explain my...

I was changing the oil in my transmission this afternoon, I unbolted my Suprasport short shifter, and pulled it out, only to have teh top half of teh shifter separate from the base. basically the adjustable part came off. I tried putting it back on, but it was really loose, and I couldn't...

Since when do we have a MKIV section? I LOL'd at the new slogan though.

My friend has this MKI Supra with this aftermarket turbo kit from like 1983. It's the best hack job you've ever seen. Anyways, the car got into a minor fender bender, and somehow when that happened, the motor lost compression in 3 cylinders. Maybe the crash caused it to detonate or something...

So, I took it down for a rebuild, and turbo upgrade in April. I got it running, only to have the bottom end fail like a month later. (It was my fault). So, tow my car 700km back home, pull the 1JZ out, buy a 2JZ, make a 1.5JZ, and put it in, get it all running. Then, like a week later, the 2JZ...

MKII Decal on my hatch. Now all I need to do is get rid of all the other markings on the back, and it will kick ass. I love the look :)

Check this link out. http://www.gpopshop.com/toyotakits.html They offer rebuild kits for a bunch of Toyota turbos, including CT12, and CT12B. (For those of you who don't know, CT12A = CT12) Has anybody tried these?

I'm having pipe dreams of a 3-way front stage in my car right now, mainly because I'm bored. I'm curious as to if I would be able to put a pair of 8" drivers somewhere, like the inner sides of the footwells, on the sides of the radio. I'm not at home right now, so I can't take measurements...

I finally got my 1.5JZ all back together and installed in my car before I went off on vacation, only to notice a coolant leak. Long story short, the water pump is cracked in half and needs replacing. So, I'm just curious how much work I have ahead of me tomorrow. Can I take the lower timing...

I'm giving away some seats out of my Celica to some guy in the states. Anyone know who I should ship them through?

My "1JZ GTE" Just won't cut it anymore. ;) I don't have the pics up yet, as I'm at work, but this evening, I picked up a nice shiny 2JZ-GTE with a complete uncut harness and ECU. It's replacing the 1JZ in my Supra that had an unfortunate thrust washer evacuation. :naughty: I'm thinking I...

I saw a commercial yesterday where Pontiac was talking about their best-in-class fuel economy. They were saying "You don't need an import to get good gas milage", then they went on to tell people about how good gas milage their Pontiac Vibe gets. Does anybody else see the irony in this...

I needed something to drive while I rebuild the bottom end in my 1JZ, so I bought a RA64 Celica coupe off of a local guy for cheap. I forgot to take a picture of it while it was still light out, but it looks sort of like this one I took from wikipedia (except mine's white). The car is...

I was watching some TV, playing some Metal Gear Acid, when the game froze. "Strange" I thought, so I turned it off, then back on, only to find out that the damn thing won't read discs anymore :( I ordered a new laser assembly, but it's going to be a few weeks before it arrives. I think...

The air conditioning used to work perfectly in this car before I pulled the motor out to do a bunch of work on it. Now, when I push the AC button in, the light will come on for a few seconds, then start flashing, or it just won't come on at all. The compressor never engages. I'm pretty sure...

On some forums I've been on, you can set up specific users on your account that will be ignored. When they are, you will not be able to see any posts from that user. Does this forum have that feature?
