In a months time from getting the shell, I had my 7MGE cleaned up and installed into the '87 donor shell. The only thing that kept me from having it running sooner is the wiring was sketchy at best for the fuse kick panels inside the car. And the fact that I found out the accident actually...

Yep, blue leather. As far as I can tell it was considered the sports package for the 86.5

I managed to find this '87 shell for $500 so I snatched it up and got to work. It even had a 7MGTE long block but most of the useful stuff had been taken out already. Something to build later.

I picked up my first MK3 Supra in '08. It was an 86.5 original Wisconsin car that was used but very clean body wise. Had it for a month then get rear ended and bent the day lights out of the rear driver side of the car. I had just put some new exhaust on it that day too.

Nothing wrong with N/A. Matter of fact the 7MGTE was only about 20-30 HP over the original N/A. Which in '86 turbo wasn't even an option. Besides, you have the better and stronger rear end of the two. Good luck with the project.

Nice ride, wish mine looked that nice.

Sounds like a dream come true, welcome and happy caring for the car.

Hello again, Just wanted to share a picture of my engine. It's been installed back in the car along with various parts to continue the larger task of wiring. For the past month and a half I've had my nose buried in research about the electrical systems for these cars. I must say it's an...

That is so ridiculously AWESOME! Exactly what I've been searching for and couldn't find. This will prove to be extremely useful. Thank you MA61 XX GT

According to the trouble shooting section in the repair manual it shows the signal should move between 5v and 0. This is kind of looking like a simple on/off switching 5v reference but I'm just trying to verify that and at what % of the pedal it changes. Outputs from my ECU is not a problem. I...

I take it no one knows. Seems to be a 5v signal. Would just like verification from a working system that the 5v is on/off and what % of the gas pedal it changes.

Anyone? I'm attempting to get my TEMS system working with a MS3 + MS3X ECU. What I need is a detailed description of the signal from each wire (L1, L2, L3). I didn't have the TEMS up and running before I started wiring in the Megasquirt as well as not knowing that there were 3 wires from the...

I'm looking to figure out the signals that are sent from the ECU to the TEMS computer through wires L1, L2 and L3. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=116 Down in "Service Hints" the first three with the letter "H" in front of it are for those wires. With...

Not sure if you can help me but I'll give it a try anyway. I'm looking to find out what exactly the three wires from the ECU to the TEMS do (L1, L2, L3). I need to figure out what kind of signal was being communicated between the two. I'm already assuming it works in conjunction with the...

I'm looking for details about the three wires (L1, L2, L3) that run from the ECU to the TEMS computer. I know which three they are so I don't need to know that. Rather, what I need is what those three wires do specifically. What kind of signals, what for, and which direction. I'm...

1) Parts for this car/engine are becoming hard to find 2) I'd like to be able to source this simple part from other suppliers than Toyota 3) I'd like to get a spring with a hair more tension

Would anyone know what the T-Belt spring is rated at? I found that the overall length is 69mm but can't seem to find anything on it's max load or other ratings. Thanks.

Rodel, You hit the nail on the head with suspension first. Been planning that but haven't got my R154 and motor back in yet to clear some working room in the garage. Plans are to change all chassis bushings, change shocks/springs/mounts, sway bar links, have it frame racked/measured/and...

Just curious what the advantages of less offset on the rear wheels would be. I understand less offset will set them out a bit further but what are the detailed reasons for having the rear offset in the low 30's? Thank you for the replies by the way. :)

Don't have the suspension installed yet but by measuring where it sits. Used a straight board to put across tire up to the fender and measured from the inside sidewall to closest components. What I should probably do is lock the wheel in each direction to find clearances on the front as well...
