I want to share my current Vehicle speed sensor settings and gear display settings. They work ok, the speed display on a laptop matches the speedometer pretty close, and it displays the correct gear for the most part, but I think there's room for improvement. So if anyone has a setting they feel...

Hey Guys, this was originally a question, but since I figured it out, I thought it would be a good idea to edit this post into a small write-up. Here's how to create the USB cable if you don’t have it. If you buy your dash brand new, it will come with it. You need it to connect to...

Were you guys aware that based on Brian Crower website, the 280 7M cams are now available for purchase? I searched and was suprised it was not mentioned. Just sharing:icon_bigg http://www.briancrower.com/makes/toyota/7mgte.shtml

Besides setting the AEM to retard timing when it sees knock which requires logging and setting up a base knock to eliminate noise. What are other good safety features one should enable with the AEM? For example, at what AIT temperature should I have the AEM do something about it? at what water...

I just thought about this, i'm at work and I cant test this yet, maybe someone will know. Now that I'm running a AEM EMS, did I lose the 9-12v fuel pump switching that the stock ecu does via the resistor/relay box? if yes, did the system switch the voltage to constant 12v or constant 9v...

Quick story, my friend owns his own shop and was before that a Lexus master mechanic. I've been fortunate thanks to him to meet many local high performance leaders, including Racing/tuner industry leaders. One day while I was in his shop, a guy that used to be Lance (Toyomoto) head mechanic came...

Does anyone happen to have any pictures they might have taken during their AEM install of how they made it fit? That thing is huge compared to the stock ecu. Or any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

Ok, now that I have your attention:) . I am planning on removing the air-bag computer (under the armrest) while my interior is being re-done, and I was wondering if it's a totally independant system. Will it affect anything else? My airbag as not been connected on the steering wheel for the...

I'm trying to see how these rims below would look like on my car in Bronze, or Mat black. I'm including different angles of the wheel to hopefully make it easier. Thanks Better yet, Paint buckshotglass's car for me. I got authorization :icon_bigg

I'm trying to find the part number for the windshield trims. I've searched here and on cygnus. Cygnus has all the other windows info, but not the windshield. If anyone can point me to where it's on cygnus, I would appreciate it. Thanks

Quick question guys. I am getting an AEM EMS soon and currently have an MKIV TT fuel pump and 550cc injectors. At the moment, I dont need bigger injectors yet, but will for my future plans. Will I have any problems in the mean time with 1000cc, MKIV fuel pump, AFPR with my current set-up(see...

My first Dyno ever since owning a car was this past Wednesday night. It was really just a few run to see where I stood, and what potential my set-up had. As you will see, my A/F ratio was all over the place. I lost my steady low 11.* A/Fs ever since I installed my VPC and never really had the...

Have you guys heard about this pump? These guys claim its a pretty new item and have it as an *introductory price*. They say its a drop-in "Upgrade" for the twin turbo supra, and flows 280 lph! or is it just the famous cosmos fuel pump? Here's the link...

I used some CRC electronics cleaner to clean my CPS, is there something else I can spray in there afterwards that will help protect it? Someone told me to spray some WD40 in there to lubricate stuff and keep things from drying up. Is that a good thing to do? Is it preferable that it stays dry...

Ok guys, I'm getting ready to install my rear MKIV TT Brake to go with my Arz front kit. I have everything already, at least I hope. Here's what I need to know. From Djonez's website, 4cefed.com, on his write-up, he mentions that the MKIII rear brake lines bolt right in. Based on that, I...

Can we use the coolant overflow bottles that have the feed on the bottom of the cans/reservoirs? (I believe that's how the MKIVs are set-up?) We have the type that has a top feed with a tube going towards the bottom for the system to suck the coolant back when it cools down; but is it ok to...

This is the first time I hear about this. To those who might be interested. (I already have my BBK) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-SOARER-TWIN-TURBO-FRONT-BIG-BRAKES-SC300-SUPRA-MK3_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33564QQihZ014QQitemZ330108225078

I hate to ask this, but I went to radioshack today, and they didnt have the 2400 ohm resistor(as required by the VPC/SAFC hardwire graph). Even on their website, they dont list the 2400 ohm. I'm assuming 2400 ohm would be the same as 2.4k ohms. whats the closest one I could use? I know the...

Quick question guys. I have a vpc I'm installing soon (couldn't pass on a great deal). I will be hardwiring it. I already know what to do, but I had a quick question on the best way to do it. I understand that there's really 4 vpc wires that need hardwiring. Gray(AFM signal) Black(neg)...

Would any of these be considered good crimping tools? Is there one that you guys prefer, like those ratcheting crimpers? I have a couple of examples links, you advice is appreciated. Or should I look into a different style of crimper tool? Thanks...
