    MK3_4ME's Purple Nurple '86.5 1JZ-GTE Supra Build

    Definitively o2 sensor. There should be a 3 wire plug nearby for it to plug into. Looks good so far. Keep it up, the pay-off is worth the work.

    Need some tutoring on an oscilloscope purchase

    I have no experience with most of the scopes being talked about here. But i do have experience with fluke and vantage products. The vantage stopped getting updates many years ago, but it does include instructions on how to test most automotive sensors, actuators, switches etc. It will even show...

    1JZ Power steering problem

    What do you mean the power steering fails? Is it noisy, leaking, hard to turn the wheel? Your going to have to give more information.

    What are your favorite things about MKIII Supras?

    The drivers seat, I cant believe some people take those out. Definitely the most comfy car seat ever. And the fact that when I turn her on , she returns the favor.

    1jz serpentine slipping at around 5000 rpm

    Id check where the tensioner is, in its throw, before I started replacing parts. As belt length may be the issue.

    7MGE CA Smog test aborts

    User error. When you first start doing smog tests you get tons of aborts. You only get seconds to get to 15mph, then you have to keep it between 14 and 16 mph for a couple of mins, then jump to 25 and keep it there.

    The quest for tight steering...

    I bet your inner tie rods have play. Remove the boots and have someone move the wheel. 10 to 1 youll see some play on a 100k car.

    Crank/Keyway problem. Please help
