Poodles...thanks for the heads up, I did not know what you meant by the fingers shifting in your earlier post, I won't chance it...it's just too much work. MK3Brent...thanks for the pics to show how it should look like. Reason for going with something with such a huge clamp force is...

Hey thanks for all the responses!!! I appreciated and I also checked the diaphragm again and it seems to be okay. In the pics the bearing is offcentered so it looks shifted, but it is actually in place pretty well. That explains why the clutch pedal safety switch was bypassed by the previous...

Is the RPS 3200lb. a good pressure plate???

I need to know what brand this pressure plate is, so that I know to get a new clutch or not. It does not appear to be a repainted stock clutch (although it does have toyota inscribed on it) because of the double diaphram. It looks to be reinforced pretty well and it does have RPS on the side...

What are the consequences of not having a thermostat? Can it cause overheating if you don't have one? Just something that I heard, that some people don't run thermostats. Just curious if this is a good idea in our cars.

I will post up some pics as soon as I get a chance too. Thanks for all the feedbacks thus far. It would be good to see a before and after tell tale of the car.

No feedbacks???

I recently picked up a 89 supra na that a member here had turned into a turbo. It has everything from wiring to transmission from the turbo car. When I purchased it it had a blown motor. I had a rebuilt (stock internals) motor left from a project that did not fall through and put that one in...

It connects to the top of the egr valve...here's another pic http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=EC&P=4

gixxer750, I thought about N/A pistons to when I did my rebuild, but decided not too in favor of higher HP. But I had a civic once...and had a built motor with higher compression pistons and it was fast...like you said, more power with less psi and less turbo lag....that will be my next...

I third that...because it just happened to me last night. I just put in my rebuilt motor and it would crank over but would not start. First it was the fuel pressure regulator leaking (which caused a small fire, close one) then it started backfiring when I cranked it. I checked my timing and I...

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe Dave H runs a stock 2jzge NA-T that is suppose to be one of the fastest NA-T utilizing a stock block and his custom kit. I have installed his kit on my bros sc300 and at just 5 psi he makes 294 rwhp and 305 rwtrq. That is with the stock injectors, stock...

In my opinion a complete tune up like what you're about to do is a good start because it will eliminate a lot of possibilities and it gets the tune up out of the way too. Sounds like a spark plug wire problem though...my bro had a similar problem on his lexus sc300 and that is what it ended up...

Yep, I just unbolted like grimjack said and zip tied it to the chassis...no leaking fluid...and no buying new washers and fluid. It's easier this way...I did the same thing when I swapped out my brothers 2jz in his lexus and my sis's V6 camry too...

I did a similar project to my toyota truck and it passed emissions with no problem. I used a throttle body from a newer version of the motor and it had more vaccum outlets than my original. I just block it all off with rubber end caps and it looked legit. It didn't bother the smog technician...

I would leave the power steering and a/c on the car because once you take it off you have to recharge the a/c (just as grimjack stated) and not to mention bleed the power steering rack as well. A friend of mine took them both off when he removed his car and it delayed his swap for an extra day...

I'm still in search of one??? Thanks.

Are you selling yours??? Or do you know who can custom make one??? Anyone??? Thanks.

Does anyone know if an adapter exist to allow a T3 or T4 turbo to mate to our stock turbo manifolds??? Thanks.

Thanks AF1JZ...that is definetly the B+M kit...now the question is...is it obtainable??? I am going to do some research on it, but if anyone else knows where or how please let me know. If I find out first I will post it just in case. Worst comes to worst I will just have to take a dip at...
