    Some more supras from the netherlands

    Thanks for your response :) What music should it be then ? This techno-like music is my personal favourite but if people dislike this music I might switch to other music. (However this type of music is used a lot in most car/supra videos) Any other opinions? :)

    Some more supras from the netherlands

    Well since i'm from The Netherlands (I live near the German border) i really wouldn't know! lol But it's a good question. I'm sure a German will see this thread sometime and respond.

    Some more supras from the netherlands

    Finally got around to finishing the video of the "Custom turbo and supercharger meeting". A meeting where every car from every brand is welcome, as long as there is a custom turbo or supercharger involved under the hood... It's the 'full version' of the first video in the post above which had...

    Genuine Group A Racing Supra at 2011 YTCC Spa

    Good info, I really didn't know that. :) I wonder if the homologation of Alexander's car requires the presence of the 'official' group A cage.

    Genuine Group A Racing Supra at 2011 YTCC Spa

    Yes this is a targa. I believe the car originated from switserland. The car has all of the interior completey stripped out, a badass roll cage and has a race / rally homologation. (i have the complete interior of the car stored in my house lol :) the car was as good as new when alexander...

    GoPro HD Supra Cruise

    Sound is good, picture quality is great! Can you mount the camera some more towards the windscreen as half my screen was filled with your dashboard ? lol

    fuel pressure/egr vsv question

    Problem found already? Maybe it's an open door but poor idle after boost is most likely a boost-leak. Can you pressure-test the intake from just after the AFM to the throttle body ? I've had similar problems and after pressurizing the intake system I could easily tell where the boost leak was...

    Tuning + Upgrading

    I got a lot of misfires with the NGK irridiums. Got the copper gapped @ .8 and everything was ok. While you don't have a wideband, please at least get an AFPR and set your base pressure with the vacuum hose disconnected around 40PSI. Take out a Volt meter and configure it to read your Vf signal...

    electric fan?

    Flexalite dual fans with the flexalite fan controller. And just to be safe, also wire the fans to your aux fan connectors so if the flexalite fan controller fails it will always fallback to stock sensors.

    Some more supras from the netherlands

    In my last video thead I mentioned selling the supra in favor of buying a MKIV. Well, I'm not selling the supra anymore. To celebrate the fact that i'm holding on to it made me decide to attend some meetings. One was a static "engine stare meeting", one included highway racing across the...

    Supra build easy horsepower

    He's probably talking about an ajustment screw in the lower part of the afm. the part that lets unmetered air in. In the supra that screw is capped off (if it is even in there, i never looked). When doing the lex/riemer mod (i.e. 550cc injectors and lexus 1uz-fe afm) you can ajust the screw to...

    Supra build easy horsepower

    12 psi is on the edge of fuelcut. that may work, and will for sure work with the stock fuel system and stock turbo. it will not work anymore when you upgrade your turbo.

    Supra build easy horsepower

    After the rebuild, get an open intake, open exhaust. preferably 3" all the way from the turbo to the endtip. Get an upgraded turbo. You can get upgraded ct26 (stock) turbos. Best is a 57 or 60 trim. 57 is more reliable, 60 trim is kinda reliable and brings you another 30whp. Install a...

    A tribute to my supra turbo

    Thanks. :) I prefer the MKIV model and build quality above the MKIII. And besides that, after owning it for 7 years I get tired of fixing the cps wires and other crappy wiring. Again! :lol: So it's time for a fresh other car. We'll see what comes along. In the meantime I'll be driving this car...

    A tribute to my supra turbo

    She came a long way. Rusty, stock, everything broken including most of in the interior. Bought as stock 7m turbo in 2004, now almost mint and pushing an "all day long" 360 hp and 600NM tq. Drives like a dream. Now for sale as I need the money to buy a MKIV. I'm sure I'll miss that old 7M...

    Blinking CEL

    35 seems a tad low. is it with or without the vacuum hose removed? fuel pressure should NEVER go below 32 psi. It would explain why the car runs better when you make more rpm as the fuel pressure rises 1:1 with your vacuum. Also another thing to check are your spark plugs perhaps?
