nobody know?

woops sorry jetjock.. i meant to put jj but my finger must have slipped.. it was almost 3am my time when I posted that!

:) what are you drinkin? I may swing by some time and check on the truck!

hmm somebody may have mentioned this but i'll say it just in case... check the thermostat housing gasket (the part in red)... I had this one start leaking on me before.

Just a quick question for you experts out there. I searched for a bit but couldn't come up with anything that would answer my question directly, so here it goes. I have an 88 NA 5spd gauge cluster... and a tach out of a 88 turbo auto cluster. Now, what would be the best way to go about...

ahh yes, thanks! ya that is what I meant.. when the water/coolant freezes it allows for it to expand by those plugs coming out... should have worded myself a little bit better :3d_frown:

Fixed the leak. yes it was a leak. I don't know how I missed it. IJ: you are absolutey right on that one, I did just do a once over of all the ic piping (or I thought was all of it).. I was actually in the process of rigging up my air compressor to the intake system (block off at the 3k pipe...

hehe.. it's an na car tho :icon_razz 4.30 lsd still, but has a gte under the hood. the combination of the 4.30 and the gte is pure sex btw...

CRE he paid a mechanic to set it for him and that's what the guy did... (just to clearify)

:rofl: won't kill my NA on topic: Lets see pics of this turbo auto... mileage on both cars too.. my .02.. I wouldn't trade unless his body & interior are cleaner and in better shape than yours (don't forget if yours has lower miles on it too)... because doing a turbo swap on your 5spd na...

Does anybody have a picture of the back of the tach? I need to know where the two little wires coming off of the tach motor/needle go on the pcb... I took them off a while ago to replace the pcb on my na tach... any help would be great!

slacker, you said you are in penticton? I'm in kelowna and would love to check out this badass build in person sometime, it's looking great!

connector is clean... no corrosion, both the afm plug and the harness plug are good. The afm is really dirty inside tho. a fairly thick layer of goldon coloured grease.. I think that's my problem. If I knew somebody with a supra I would try a good afm and see if it solves the problem but I...

hmm did some research on cleaning afms.... turns out the only way you can clean it is with freon gas so it doesn't craze the optical sensor... so my question is, can I go to say, wal-mart, and buy a $16 dollar bottle of that a/c stuff that is designed for both types r12 and r134a, will that...

It started it a week or so ago, I thought it was just a big leak at my intercooler which has been patched up, so I bipassed it and found that it still does it. So I then yesterday tore the whole intake off and replaced all the gaskets vac lines etc... and it still does it. I had only been...

It is fuel cut... the ecu is storing code 34 after it happens (Turbocharger Pressure)... at 9psi the car bucks violently and the cel comes on for about 4-5 seconds. So you think it's the afm that's causing the issue then. I know the ecu uses the afm as a reference for if it needs to cut the...

What is a welch plug? sorry for the noob question.. like a freeze plug? To stop the block/head from freezing in winter?

This little issue is starting to drive me crazy. I spent a good several hours yesterday replacing all the gaskets on the intake manifolds & egr and replaced all the vacuum lines (making sure no loose ends weren't hooked up aswell), and I also checked all my ic piping for leaks... nothing was...

hmm... I'm going to try making one of those boost leak testers and test the system for leaks by pressurising it (and block it off at the t body).. I know this will only test the intake/ic side of it but it will still eliminate those parts as an option. I'm also going to find a way to get my...

Yup code 34... now if I fixed the leak... and didn't clear the codes, would I still hit fuel cut? Because I don't have any other leaks in the system that I know of, unless my bov is leaking...
