I personally didnt machine either the block or head, and am going 15,000 miles and still running strong. The one thing i did use is the liquid aluminum bars leak, which fills in any gaps that the MHG doest seal. WORKS GREAT! My local supra shop (well its a performance shop that specializes in...

Smash in the front end and say someone turned in front of you and ran, then your insurance company will pay for it! :evil2: Just in idea.....prolly woulda had to call the cops on the scene tho...damn......sorry about your luck, man, that is a horrible thing to have to go through! So are you...

i have a SSQ and have never stalled or run like crap.

I was just wondering because in my last car i couldnt handle not having a radio for 2 days, and the other da i was driving and realized that in the month since id bought my car i listened to the radio maybe twice lol. I think i may have to take it out to put in more important things such as...

Does anybody actually listen to the radio in there TURBO supra? The noise of a spooling turbo mated with the "knee weakening" sound of a properly tuned blow off valve is all the music i need! That and the speakers in supras are junk.:icon_mad:

Nice house BTW. Looks awesome.

Before i got my turbo, i had an 86.5 NA, with pacesetters. The o2 sensor is way off, but running a wire to it solves it, any muffler shop will do it.

so boosting at 10lbs, what would you put it at? I hear it is always better to run rich, which is why i got the FPR. Im a motocrosser, and have seen what running lean can do to an engine.

anyone ? what about the FPR?

I was told that if you take care of it soon that you dont need the crank resurfaced because there is no damage to the crank. I was also thinking of going with king bearings because they say the fillin low spots and adapt to high spots?

Has anyone heard of or used toga rod bearings? They have them on horsepowerfreaks for the 7mgte. Ive developed a very very very slight rod knock and id like to change the bearings out before it gets any worse. Also, i am installing a FPR to sompensate for raised boost, and was wondering how...

thanks a bunch......sounds complicated but was really easy......engine code 52......ta dah! knock sensor.

you would definitely have to send your turbo out to be upgraded...$450...but your cars down for a week or 2. Ive heard an upgraded turbo can handle 500hp.

ACTUALLY....i would fix your car first....beating on a car with rod knock is not cool and can lead to costly repairs. From what everyone heres told me, if you can hear the knock over your engines natural sounds then the bearings probably fried already, and waiting to do damage. That being...

get a full exhaust, meaning......turbo elbow, downpipe, 3'' exhaust and straight through mufler...intake as well. There is an amazing amount of power waiting to be unleashed due to the restrictive turbo elbow and cat on downpipe. I just got done doing a full exhaust and i cant believe the...

Just wondering how i can check the engine code myself? I went to an import tuning shop to get a code read, and they said with the obd1 system like we all have, youd have to have a different connector for each individual car. He said that i could do something to make the check engine light flash...

as far as the oil pressure being high, i dont know....i actually changed my oile that same day, so i know theres not too much. Maybe its because im using synthetic turbo blend 20w50 oil? i know it helps with oil pressure a lot.

you know what, i never checked license plate lights....and i know its a small problem...but my supra is very clean and solid, and runs great, so it bugs me when people get in the car and see a light on....and they automatically think somethings wrong with the car ya know? BTW ive owned three...

click on it and it gets bigger.

Sorry about the quality. It was taken on my phone. It appears to be an indication that one of my tailights are out....but i checked every tailight, turn signal, and reverse light....even the third brake light in the spoiler. Is there any other reason why it would come on?
