    does it irritate anyone else when people use improper grammar?

    improper spelling or grammar is irritating me too, at least in written form..... first because I'm kind of a spelling fetishist (:D), no matter what language, and second because it makes the author/speaker harder to understand if there are many spelling/punctuation/grammar errors. I think when a...

    small autobahn cruising video

    I recently made a small video from the footage of a buddy of mine, we just thought we'd share with you folks :) right click -> "save as...": good quality version, 640x480 resolution [126mb] crappy quality, crappy 240x180 resolution and crappy sound [25mb] the footage was made on a ~500km...

    Supra Recognition?

    hm, in the past 2 years that I own my MKIII, I've seen a total of 4 other MKIIIs (no MKIIs or MKIVs) on the street.... and by the time I realised they were Supras (and not 8-series BMWs which are much more common here), it was too late to wave at them :p

    emanage vs. map ecu vs. s-afcII

    nope sorry, you can't completely dump the AFM with the eManage. there is an optional pressure sensor available, and as you said, it allows for better tuning. but the eManage cannot translate the voltage signal from the pressure sensor to a karman-vortex frequency which is needed by the stock...

    What is your Ethnicity? RACE...

    wow, I never knew there were so many people with german "ingredients" in north america...that's astonishing. even though I agree with Jeff, I think everyone's national parentage is interesting nonetheless :) so suprra_girl, you are telling us that you're a Maori? :p

    Washed the cars today. Supra was out ( plateless)..

    judging from the picture, I believe it's a B+M lip, almost half of the MKIIIs here in germany have them (at least I'm under the impression).... like here or here or here etc...

    How many people fuel up while leaving the Supra running?

    haha, KeithH's story reminds me of a buddy of mine.... once he was fueling up with the engine still running, the cashier must have seen smoke from his exhaust or something, so she came running towards him and halfway out, she yelled something like "are you crazy? do you want to kill us all...

    Kicked in the nuts!!!!

    I guess they only showed those 10% of the people getting kicked who actually found it funny afterwards... I myself wouldn't find that funny at all. the second to last one was great, though :D

    Turbo A ECU

    are you sure they are exactly identical? according to the japanese EPC, the TurboA indeed has two pressure sensors, one with the P/N 89420-14050 and one with 89420-14020 (which is the same as on all 88-90 turbo MKIIIs). probably one is for the ECU and one for the boost gauge? here's the EPC...

    How many people fuel up while leaving the Supra running?

    I normally turn the engine off during fill up, but my turbo timer occasionally thinks it would be better to leave the engine running ;) that way I can also lock the car when I'm paying while the engine is still running and cooling down...

    emanage

    I guess you are referring to this diagram? as I see it, the IGt signal coming from the ECU is connected to both the RPM input and the CH1 input of the emanage, as well as to the base of the transistor. I think the problem with the diagram is that the transistor has been added afterwards...

    Shocking story

    a "workaround" is to touch the car body while stepping out of the car, so the voltage will discharge between your shoe and the ground instead of between your hand and the car body, which is much less painful :)

    keep car idling when ic pipes have blown off theory

    an alternative would be to use some proper hose clamps, so that the hoses/couplers don't come off so easily ;)
