    Upgrades: Is there a 'best' order?

    ^ Glad you didn't say both, because I've been barking up that tree for a LONG time and I still got nothin! I'll post some updated pics tonight. Just promise not to flame the lack of 'put-back-together-ness' :icon_bigg

    north eastern IN meet??

    Old thread... I'd probably hit it up. Would probably be myself in the 82 and one of my buddies driving my mkIII. Rumptis may go if I do, probably jeff, Maybe MDC. Make it in Indy or somewhere closer and more of us would show up because all the other Supra owners ARE BROKE ASSES and...

    5Speed to Auto convert.

    ^ What he said I'd trade you an auto harness/ecu (89T) for a 5sp harness/ecu (and I'd be interested in the parts for the swap, but mostly just the harness/ecu) You'd also need the front half of the driveshaft, a shifter, linkage, trans fluid lines to the rad, an auto rad or a trans cooler...

    Truth about Intakes

    Helped or not, my RabidChimp intake looks a helluva lot better than the stock black plastic crapp. :icon_bigg I didn't notice a difference in sound... but it's kinda hard to hear over the new DT header that I put on at the same time. As far as performance enhancement, it gave me a...

    Car wont start

    Check your ground cables. The battery terminal, the large wire going to the block and the little wire bolted to the chasis.

    Upgrades: Is there a 'best' order?

    The car is technically for her (which is why it remained an Auto) so I'd atleast like to make it so she could drive it if/when she ever decided to. And incase she reads this, it's fiance now, my bad. :icon_bigg And what's with the :umno: ? It's not cool to let a female drive a Supra or...

    Upgrades: Is there a 'best' order?

    I'd LIKE to have a 12.95 or faster car. :icon_bigg Just so I can be cool like my bro and his Mustang. BUT I also want it to handle good, as close to my mkII as possible. Basically a quick car that fun in the curves, yet I could let my GF and her friends take it out and not worry about...

    Uneven idle RPM

    Is your throttle linkage letting the TB close all the way? That's the easiest to check, just see if you can push it closed any further. I'm 100% what does what with these engines electronically, so I can't help you there. :icon_conf

    Upgrades: Is there a 'best' order?

    I just got my 89T going and was wondering if there was a way that I could do my upgrades and not have something become obsolete after another upgrade.... I.E. I don't want to get IC hardpipes when I wont be able to use them w/ an upgrades IC or turbo. Things I'm looking into now are...

    SERIOUS car problem

    Sorry, just reading through all of this... Any update? From the sound of things you've taken a LOT of hard routes to check something easy. But it sounds like you've learned a lot doing it so it all evened out. Advance/Autozone/ wherever SHOULD have some sort of Alternator tester that you...

    Car wont start

    ^ yeah, the oil can keep it from grounding so you wont get a spark. I was going to suggest checking your plugs and maybe bleeding the fuel rail (just loosen one of the bolts on the fuel rail until gas sprays out) Then you can get a good whiff of the fuel in there to see if it may be bad also.

    torque converter ?

    MY dad's old Ford truck shook like one of those vibrating beds when doing a steady highway speed... would almost rattle your brain loose, yet was kind of fun in a way. IT turned out to be the TC. :icon_conf Just my past experience, whatever it's worth.

    Okay I'm SICK of my code 52. PLEASE help me fix it.

    it's almost 9 now, I'm at work/school at the hospital, not exactly a busy place this early on Sat mornings. :icon_razz Just drunk drivers for the most part. They ussually make it entertaining though. And about your KS rewire, how hard was that to do and what kind of wire did you use?
