Got the 7mge from the 90 Cressida swapped into the 87 supra. Runs fine however, I am wondering about a couple things. First, the Cressida 7m intake and fuel rail were used but it appears that the Cressida 7m injectors are upside down. It works but seemed odd. Also am using the Cressida intake...

Just wondering if anyone has any fore knowledge or opinion on the Precision SP6262 Turbo. Im about to purchase it as a direct bolt-on replacement for my CT26 60-1 (cant go T4 for another 2-3 years due to other upgrades planned). Everything looks good on it, but finding other people who have...

Okay, as most who have read my posts will know.. my car sits as follows: Rebuilt short block (Wiseco Pistons 0.5 overbore, polished rods and crank), rebuilt head, 550 RC injectors, Denso MKIV Fuel pump, Aeromotive AFPR (set to 25 psi currently), DM 7MGTE Intercooler kit (CX racing actually)...

I have a 60-1 CT26 on my car now (with a lot of other upgrades to accommodate) and am not really impressed with how it runs. The 57 Trim felt a lot peppier on the road and I think that my butt is getting too used to the CT26 pull and now just thinks its normal... lol. So.. I want to upgrade my...

Okay.. so after 3 days of fiddle-phuquing got my Driftmotion "plug-and-play" intercooler installed. I had to make a manual to map out the pipes because there is no instructions at all... lol. AFter playing around with the 3000 pipe replacement (which didn't fit properly) and its attached pipe...

New engine build, (almost everything new including a 5mm shimmed oil pump) and I am paying attention to my gauges for once... lol. Now.. on a 7MGTE in my 1988 Supra, I beleive the proper Toyota readings are as follows: 4.3psi (0.3kg) @ idle 36-71psi (2.5-5.0kg) @ 3000 rpm So, watching my...

Im not really happy with a 600 km failure on my DM 57 Trim CT26 (in fact, I am really pissed off about it... ).. but having said that, I am thinking about possibly moving out of the CT26. However, my DP and manifold are all setup for the CT26 and I am not really looking forward to doing any...

I have had this pointed out to me and I am just looking at some comments. Currently running with a 57Trim CT26, 550 injectors, 3" exhaust and Lexus AFM. Brand spanking new rebuilt engine. Now, I ran out of $$ so have to wait on the intercooler/bov upgrade until later and am getting mixed...

I want to go stand alone on my 7MGTE in 2014. So, I am doing reading/research and I want to know a couple things. First, technically I am not a mechanic although I have rebuilt engines, I do not do my mechanical work on my 88 MK3. Everything major has and is being done by RCTS in Calgary...

Background: 1988 Toyota Supra (new shortblock with wiseco pistons, upgraded 57 trim CT26, 550 cc injectors, Lexus AFM, AEM UEGO Wideband, HKS EVC-2 Boost controller, AEM AFPR (DM), HKS 3" catback Exhaust, Raptor DDP) Okay... ran across some problems with my build and just want a little input...

Okay, so as my engine is back in the car and all the hoses/wires getting repaired/replaced/upgraded, I notice that my VSV is "bypassed". Apparently, the solenoid on the bottom of the unit is prone to failure over time. So the quick fix is to connect the vacuum hose that come from the driver...

I bought a 87 Supra NA hardtop about 2 years ago. Picked up a 7MGE to replace the one in it due to either a fallen valve or busted rod. Car is in really nice condition and I paid less than 1000.00 for everything. Now the sad part is... I sold a knock sensor out of the car for 100.00. The...

Just wondering if I understand this correctly and looking for clarity so if I discuss it, I dont come across as an idiot. Just rebuilt my shortblock and had to do a lot of talking/searching/reading prior to ensure I dont do it twice. Now I think I may have misunderstood something and want to...

Something odd happened yesterday and I'm wondering if its going to be very hard to troubleshoot. When I I turn on my ignition the temp control lights are bright, but when the engine starts, the climate control lights get very dim and the fan has stopped blowing. Dead blower motor? Fuse is fine...

Okay.. the only thing worse than a little information is too much information.. lol.. I am a little overloaded with too much research, not enough understanding. I currently run a stock clutch (no idea of mileage..) and am doing a 57 Trim upgrade (lexus afm and 550's supporting it, but no...

My engine is apart and I get to see what the previous build did wrong (read - everything). I have to find a shortblock now (I am in Canada). Any ideas on where to look for a GOOD one? I am trying to steer away from JDM as much as possible, but if all else fails, I may end up looking there...

Okay, I was hoping never to delve into any MK3 electronics, but apparently I may not have a choice. My 90 Supra had a dying battery (knew this.. was waiting to buy a new one) and I went this morning to spray out the engine bay in preparation of going through all the vacuum hoses, etc.. to...

I am rebuilding my engine and noticed that the gasket for my EGR system was blown out which had the exhaust gases basically cooking the hose at the back of the block (coolant elbow) and split the egr hose as well. My mechanic says that i can delete it if I want although it will raise my EGT...

Just wondered if anyone has any thoughts on this. Car is in the shop, because we "assumed" the CT26 was shot. Getting 57 Trim/exhaust/injectors/etc... (all except intercooler upgrade at this point)... because the turbo failing was what I was waiting for to upgrade that. So, they pulled the...

I just thought of something.. and was wondering... I am planning on going through from Alberta .. to Nevada.. and to Calif... next summer or the following one. My car is about to get the cat deleted. Can the police actually touch my car if I am running catless with a Canadian plate? (Im...
