    AFM question

    I don't have anything to regulate pressure. What would replacing the J tube do? I'm just going to limp around on my stocker until my injectors come in then i'm replacing it with the Lex. BTW, it does run rich at idle and perfect when I'm driving. However when the problem occurs (around 7%...

    AFM question

    It's an upgraded fuel pump (Warlboro). The chugging feels like fuel cut, but the turbo isn't even spooling when it happens. Like I said it's only at light throttle. The turbo is a T3/T4. Not sure of the compressor size, but the exhaust side is .48. It does throw a AFM code, but wasn't before the...

    AFM question

    I recently upgraded my turbo, intercooler, and fuel pump. I was getting the 550 injectors and lex AFM put in as well, but one of the injectors were bad. So right now I'm running on the stock injectors and stock MAF sensor. When I'm idling it runs rich. It's hard to start and when i'm cruising at...

    Is there anybody here that lives in the Chattanooga, TN area with a black MKIII currently doing a 1J and suspension swap?

    Spinning tires

    All of this happened with my new clutch. When I got my new clutch I replaced both the master and slave cylinders. I complained about how the pedal felt the whole time and thought maybe it was the performance clutch or something. After my shop guy grove it and tried to adjust it he decided that...

    Spinning tires

    Ever since I got my new clutch I've had problems with my clutch pedal engagement. I would always engage too high up on the pedal. I took it back to my shop and he adjusted it. The only two places that it would adjust to was really close to the floor or really close to the top. We deduced that...

    Supra Sighting

    I was watching G4 two days ago. They have this new show that's like Max-X or Real Videos. There was this segment about a car running through the front of a pizza parlor and guess what....it was a pre89 MKIII. Two tone, blue above the molding and silver under it. The people were saying that the...

    How much boost should I have? Only 7psi?

    I never installed an aftermarket boost gauge so every number that I put will be from the stocker. When I was with a stock intake/exhuast setup my gauge showed 8 PSI. When I put on my HKS intake and 3" turbo-back exhaust with no cats my gauge would peg out in 3rd-5th gear. I don't know how much...

    Tail Light conversion

    I have heard of an pre89 taillight to 89+ taillight conversion. How would one go about this? Is it direct fitment or is there any mods that need to be done?

    Whats the best year MkIII Supra to buy?

    Any MKIII in my opinion. I personally like the pre89 front bumper, but i like the 89+ taillights.

    Don't be this stupid!

    If sand worked so well why would we just not run without an intake? Our cars would run so much better with constand porting and polishing!! On a side note: The shop I go to only works on imports. One day while i was there the shop owner drove a 1970s Ford truck in. I was wondering why he was...

    New Turbo

    I've decided on going with the T3/T4 combo. Is there any setup that will get me my goals without going over 15lbs? (not for pressure limitations, but for room to grow with)

    New Turbo

    I'm fully aware of the supporting mods needed. I know that 15PSI is the limit of the CT26. Is that because of the stock compressor wheel or the housing itself? I thought it was because of the housing and I didn't want to max it out to reach my goals. Ok, 57 trim. Any other suggestions? How about...

    New Turbo

    I've got good news and bad news.... The bad news is that my turbo is starting to smoke/go out. The good news is that gives me a good reason to upgrade it. I have a choice between a T3/T4 and an upgraded stocker. Price is a major issue due to my monthly income to debt ratio. My goal is 400 or...

    bov question

    If you're running on stock boost that's what will happen. If you bump up the boost with a boost controller or shims then you'll be able to make it sound at around 4-5k.
