Hey guys,
On my MK3, my front windshield wipers don't seem to be working properly. When I put the wipers on the "intermittent" setting they work for a short period of time, and then the wipers just out of no where go onto the "low" setting. But the selector is on the "INT" setting. So then, I...
Dear jesus, talk about torque. Was that through an auto or 5 speed?
My buddy with an 88 Turbo Auto put down 240HP 300TQ and he was with a Megan 3" Turbo-back and Turbosmart MBC @ 13PSI on a 1300KM (approx. 850 miles) stock rebuilt 7M with a head port.
A wideband tells you your Air/Fuel ratios. If there isn't enough fuel going into the engine (aka AFRs reading 13.0 or more at WOT) then your engine will begin to detonate aka eventually blow up. If your AFRs are reading say 10.2 at WOT then there is too much fuel going into your engine and it is...
I drove a stock 7M car at 12psi and then I drove my 7M car (now 1JZ) that had a 3" Turbo-back (with a true 3" elbow built into my custom DP) and it was quite a noticeable difference. As far as wideband goes, I have an AEM UEGO Wideband. Does the job really well and looks pretty good at night; I...
Mcammarn got it right there. All up to you. I'd advise that you get a ride (maybe even drive) a 1JZ and 2JZ swapped car (if you can) and see how it feels. I got a ride in one, and I fell in love with the 1JZ. The unique sound of the motor, the ability to rev to the moon and the way to engine...
You can upgrade the twins but again you run into a wall eventually where the turbos just can not flow enough air to make more horsepower. The best is to go single turbo, this way you can choose a turbo that will spool quickly and have less lag, or you can choose something bigger have a bit more...
Definitely get rid of the stock twins while the engine is sitting on the stand and get a single turbo. I wish I had done this because my turbos are already smoking and I swapped my 1J into my Supra in April. Won't hurt to spend some extra cash and go full standalone right off the bat so that you...
For sure! I will try and contact Invidia and see what they say. If that's a bust too, then I'm just gonna go with some Teins. A lot of people say they love them (no matter what car they put it on) and the experience is just that much better with the EDFC.
K20 how do these coils ride though?
I found a set of these coilovers for the MK3 Supra. But 3 of the 4 are blown and I emailed Racing Gear and they won't do oversea service. I even tried calling Tein and they won't do it either. Can anybody help me figure out how to get a rebuild on these beauties?? They're kind of rare parts and...
That was definitely a good read O.Z. That completely changed my mind on water-cooled turbos. I always thought that oil-cooled was the way to go. I was definitely wrong. Even though whether or not the turbo is cooled by water depends on the manufacturer.
Methanol injection reduces intake temperatures to keep things safe when boosting (which is hard on the car even though the engine is designed for it). Methanol injection is definitely a great thing to have when driving a Turbo car IMO. (again, research more on the advantages of meth injection on...
