    oil leaking into exhaust housing?

    Turbine oil seal isn't designed to seal oil in the manner you have subjected it to. The seal ring/piston ring on the turbine side when seated will still have a gap. http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff165/jusmx141/T3%20Rebuild/T3Rebuild19.jpg So as hvyman already stated, you fill it with oil...

    Yellow plug ECU terminal pins source

    They are made by AMP / TE Can be purchased from many different distributors: Digikey, Newark, ect... Though the last time I looked at stock, no one has them. Minimum order is typically qty: 36,000 if they aren't stocked.

    Divide PTW BY 2?

    You need to measure all points on the bore, top, middle and bottom. Determine if there is any taper. Recommend reading this section in its entirety. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=EM&P=74 I believe the online manual does not outline the cylinder taper...

    Divide PTW BY 2?

    Why not just follow the TSRM? Everything is outlined for the stock pistons. 7M-GTE: Standard Oil Clearance - .0028 - .0035" http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=EM&P=78 Unless you are using aftermarket like JE. Then each company has their own spec sheet to use. For JE...

    Why we are happy with sub par fuel economy?

    Not to mention the obsession with increased HP / Torque year after year. Seems counter intuitive when building a small commuter vehicle. A good quick overview of this trend, a bit dated but still relevant. http://econbrowser.com/archives/2010/04/improving_the_f

    Why we are happy with sub par fuel economy?

    They are making better / more efficient engines. The problem is the amount of safety & electronic nanny controls that are required to go into vehicles now. Cars year after year are continuing to bloat & increase in weight. Greatly offsetting the MPG it can actually achieve. Would like to...

    7mgte question.... wires from harness under dash

    You will have to verify what they are first. Based on the wire colors they are not related to the HAC sensor. But to answer your question, yes if you have a code 32 its the HAC sensor.

    7mgte question.... wires from harness under dash

    My best guess. Looks like its for the Automatic Temperature Control System. Functional Test & Adjustment A/C service connector. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=AC&P=43 "A/C Short Pin" http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=142

    7mgte question.... wires from harness under dash

    My best guess from the location of the photo.. Looks like someone messed with the factory connector. Were they connected? Here is what mine looks like. Under the yellow tape are 3 connectors: 2 blue w/ white wires and the center is green w/ red. The green wire can be connected to either blue...

    Higher oil PSI?

    Anyone tested an old oil relief spring rate compared to a brand new part? Part fatigue has been thoroughly tested for the oil squirters already.

    Higher oil PSI?

    Coolant thermostats don't last forever either. No parts have an indefinite lifespan.

    Higher oil PSI?

    Mazda RX-7 oil cooler was designed much better than the Supra. http://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/oem-oil-cooler-943711/ Oil Thermostat is located within the oil cooler. Its basically a full flow system from the factory, like most install on Supra's in the aftermarket....
