    California Emissoins Help!

    I'm no expert, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night, AND, I live in California. I have discussed a swap with a large number of people, and NO, it won't pass a proper smog inspection, it isn't an engine the car came with, or I would have bought that 2jz car in Houston that Dude just put in...

    PVC IC piping?

    I saw an old thread on another site with a link to use of PVC piping for IC. They said it worked great, but the link was dead. I searched in here, but couldn't find anything either. Has anyone tried this or is it been proven to be a bad application?

    Grumpy Old Men ?? Hmmmm

    I'm 52 and I fart dust! Now, I've built a lot of 60's and 70's Chevys, Dodges and British sports cars, but I don't know CRAP about this Supra I have. I feel like a complete idiot asking about turbo's and AFM things, because I never worked on a car that relies on electronics to haul butt...

    Can I upgrade turbo without doing anything else?

    So the consensus answer is that it's OK to run a 57 trim? A 3" catback and a DP would be OK as well? So what I'm asking is do I need a different AMF or some form of electronic tuning to go this way?

    Can I upgrade turbo without doing anything else?

    Bone Stock, but I also live in Cali. Would the bigger turbo and exhaust cause any smogging problems? THanks for the help guys. I'm quite naive and ignorant on the mighty Supra as a relative newbie...

    Can I upgrade turbo without doing anything else?

    I think my turbo is making a screaming/scraping type of noise (something is...) so, I was wondering if I can get a 57 trim for a little more performance. But would I need to get a different AFM or something? Or can I just put on a better turbo and call it good?

    e-brake question

    Is there a diagram in here anywhere on how the e-brakes work on the mk3? Everymorning when I leave for work, I feel.hear a weird grindish noise, but it goes away fairly quickly. I'm wondering if it's the e-brake sticking a bit...

    turbo noise?

    I can go hard enough to spool the turbo up, but not full on, and the motor sounds perfectly normal. But if I really mash it, I get the same spool up, but the motor is making some weird loud scraping/shreiking noise. What does a turbo sound like when dying? #2) Can I replace the turbo with a 57...

    Am I the only stock car in here?

    I bought mine without knowing what it was, just something to drive rather than my slightly modified cummins dodge. It is my daily driver because it's soooo smooth on the freeway, cruises at 80 with ease, handles better than I had any idea it would, and when clean, it looks very cool. (black...

    Cars you can bank on...86-92 Supra

    In my local newspaper this morning is an article called "Cars you can bank on" It's written by Larry Printz in the Virinian Pilot in Norfolk Va. I'm in Socal, reading it in the Ventura Co Star. He says the 86-92 is a car that people are going to want to have. It has a rep as a well-built and...
