Im on N/A #3... *1st was a 86.5. It came with a bunk motor and it froze up on me. I knew nothing about cars at this point and probably could have prevented the issue if I were more knowledgeable. swapped a N/A into it and got impounded the night I finished the work necessary to smog and...

Yea thats along the lines of what Im thinking. Ive checked all timing and all the mechanical adjustments are correct. Like when piston 1 is @ TDC the crankshaft pulley is VERY close to 0 degrees and the cam pulleys marks are lined up evenly with the marks on the cover notches. I dont wanna get...

Is this really that bad of a question or what? Or no good answers for it? Ive done somw research on it myself and not I understand the statement has to do with aif-fuel ratios during combustion. I also understand how much the bad AFM can affect the mixture and such now. Still would...

First of all. How can one tell if someone is running lean or rich? just by the smell? I dont understand really. I dont really want to ask what could cause either because im sure the list would be long. i just want to understand what people are getting at when they say things like that. Examples...

Thanks. 7M is the plan right now but then again it depends on my situation when i decide to put another motor in it. I mean its definately gonna happen since I want to paint the engine compartment and such. It will be another year till I get to that point tho im sure.

Yeah I figured as much... Ive seen the forum and been in the forum but I really didnt make the connection until the end of my last post. My eyes are just drawn to the "7M-GE" text in bold hahah. I will for sure post in the right section from now on tho.

Ive been around here for a bit now but Ive just now decided to introduce myself. My names Sam and I live in the East Bay Area of California. Im now on my 3rd N/A supra and plan on keeping this one for a long time. The previous 2 were amazing cars that I have very fond memories of and if it...

Looks damn good! How much of it did you have to smooth out on your own and paint? Im considering doing that to my car. One of the previous owners was in an accident and gave it a POS miracle job and now there are a lot of places the paint is lifting up and peeling back so it will be A LOT of...

Anyone here ever replace their window molding with new? Im interested in anyones experiences replacing the exterior molding on the windshield, hatch, door or the other small triangle windows molding? Were the results worth it? How much did it cost ya? Only place to get that stuff that I know of...

Thx for the input guys... Im prolly gonna wait on it. And I think you are right BorHor JDM MKIII 5 spoke. Just hte price is really hard for me to pass up.

There are some wheels for sale supposedly off of a JDM Twin Turb MKIII. They look just like the silver painted MKIV wheels but all 4 are 16x7 with a 44 offset. I think I may have to buy them cuz I would be able to put the 225 50 16s I just replaced. I have 3 crappy apex wheels and a full size...

Thanks for the link. Just when you think youve scoured google and found em all! hahah.

Sounds good. AFM it is then. Ill be sure to read up on their differences. But Ill definitely take your word for it. Thx. Ive already gone over all of my vacuum hoses and verified that the routing is correct. I just have not actually tested any of the VSVs that are incorporated in the setup. I...

yeah I hope so thats exactly what I was hoping to hear. Thx for the reply

88 NA. My car doesnt idle up to warm up and stays at like 900-1000 RPMS @ idle when warm. I know my MAF is bad and have a replacement on the way. Is it possible thats what causing the high idle? I still have yet to check the TPS but I dont want to adjust it until I have time to remove the TB and...

or at least larger than stock rims... in that case even smaller rims than normal like some 10" spoked gold daytons bling bling! hah. Anyhow anyone ever calibrate their speedometer to reflect the difference in the reading? Is there even a way to do that? Or is everyone just estimating as to how...

I got an 88 NA. Not exactly sure which diff. yet tho but Id be willing to swap it for another just to get better gas mileage. Right now I get like 19mpg average and thats with a lot more city driving than freeway. I still have a lot of tuning up to do also. One of my goals with this car is to...

Yea its definately common I think. Since all 3 mkIIIs Ive owned had the same issue. The lower molding on the rear hatch starts lifting and then leaks into the interior of the hatch. Then out to the floor from there. I used some RTV too.

Damn thanks guys. Woulda never guessed thyere was thant much of a difference. Glad I asked now.

Thx guys. Much appreciated. I already have the ohm meter. I would rather not buy anything unless I need to thats for sure. Anyone else got any input for me?
