I installed my Idle air control valve, but have no idea what tubes connect to it. I know the large hose connection in the center of the IACV goes over the engine and connects to the intake piping, but what about the smaller fittings that run straight through it? Are those stupid coolant lines...

Hello everyone, I have an exhaust manifold that has about ~34mm wastegate hole. But I just purchased a Tial 44mm wastegate. What problems can occur if I don't port the manifold hole larger? Should I port the Manifold to 44mm as well? Orr...what should I port it to? Larger or smaller than...

So i picked up the inexpensive cast manifold from Ebay a year ago while i was doing my build. I'm not proud of it, but at that time I did not care about doing anything the right way. I just wanted it done so i bought the dirt cheapest parts I could find. I bought that Ebay cast manifold and a...

This is what I mean, I cant tell if this mounting plate is on an angle or not because the angle of the picture is awful. http://www.driftmotion.com/mf-7mgte-p/dm76.htm

looking at the "cheap" tubular ones on ebay, I didn't notice if any of the mounting plates were on a specific angle? I know the more expensive ones are, but the cheapo's for the $200 range I cant tell if they are or not because of the angle, and they always put them on a flame background with...

I've been building my car for damn near 3 years now. And Its only taking that long because I'm a broke b***h and seem to do everything the hard way. So here is my newest issue. I have an HX40 on an aftermarket Manifold (the short tubed ones that look alot like stock). The exhaust outlet is a...

I run a manual Oil pressure gauge. Removed my electronic one last year when my oil pump gave out. Thanks for the info tho! SO i can move to the priming stages now I think...

Yeah, could be destroyed by now. But I wont know until its actually running. Ill try the timing cover thing. Have to pull off Harmonic balancer too right; cuz the pump drive is in the top right of the bottom cover? Ugh, I hope this works. Im kicking myself. I am my own worst enemy sometimes.

The car has been running with 0 oil pressure a couple times now. No matter how many times I crank it over, or how long it runs (max 1 minute), oil pressure is not created. I installed this pump bone dry. Completly forgot to prime.

I did a fresh engine build and forgot to prime the oil pump. The 7mgte is already back in the car. Is there a way I can prime the pump now that it is back in that car? I also have the Oil softline in the pan instead of the crush bent tubing as well. Has to be a way to squirt some oil down...

Yes, out to in on both adapters. doesnt seem like anyone can help me and my poor car :-/

Alright guys, so I've replaced the relief valve in my oil filter housing, I did a filter relocate with the ADAPTER screwed onto the housing where the filter would go....I think that's how I need to do it? If not well then bam, that's my problem. My relocation kit is this one-...

So its not code 51. Its 52 which is knock sensor. I have to drain the gas and get new stuff in there. Cant start the car now because I just learned that I have 0 oil pressure. So the revs will have to wait. I shimmed the pump when installing, what ciuld be wrong? Now I have to undo the...

That is exactly what is happening!! 1,600 it shuts off and picks back up about 1000-1200. Thanks Indigo! So the fix is>>> 1- to hook up the IAC/ISCV module 2-close the throttle body completely 3-calibrate the TPS by slightly moving it back and forth while jumper wires are in until the 5-1...

I found this by searching. :biglaugh: Does this really work for adjusting the tps? Because I do have code 5-1 right now...

Thanks! This is exactly what I wanted, some ideas of what else it could be instead of the IAC lol. Ill check into this right after mounting the IAC if the car is still surging. I currently have the idle screw holding it open a tiny tiny bit so air can still flow to engine. Should I adjust the...

SO run a rubber hose from the intake tube- just after the MAF housing- but before the turbo inlet correct? My car is a summer car. In Michigan.....you cant drive the Supra from November to March lol so I can leave the coolant passages open I presume

I installed a FFIM with a IAC flange on it, but blocked it off. My car is surging very badly when starting. It'll rev to about 1800rpms and then kill itself until it drops to about 1000rpms and it will turn itself back on, then climb back to 1800 and do it over and over and over. This happens...

I haven't ever let it run over 20 seconds or more. and its only been started about 5 times to check timing marks with light. So Im hoping the machine shop put the tolerances tight and itll still hold tough. And an easier route back to the pan would be through the oil cooler and right back to...

I put the magnet extension in as deep as the spring would sit, and it came out with nothing. lol.
