    Issue with boosting, possible boost leak?

    Hmmm, that's what was confusing me, and what was making me think my multimeter wasn't working. (since I tested those two first) I'm assuming this is what is throwing my code 41 then; how can I investigate this? Or would buying a new tps and adjusting it be a smarter decision? And i'm a little...

    Issue with boosting, possible boost leak?

    Just me overthinking things. Well, you were right! Code 51 appears while depressing the pedal during code reading, and 41 is still there as well. No IDL, NSW, or A/C current to ECU during diagnostic check.. with one of the possible trouble areas being the tps. So this means bad wiring, short...

    Issue with boosting, possible boost leak?

    Jetjock, thanks for the info. The check engine light has never came on, other than about a year ago when I was hitting fuel cut before I had the boost controller. That being said, no other codes have been thrown. 41 is the only one that shows. I can go re-read the codes and slightly press the...

    Issue with boosting, possible boost leak?

    After reading a code 41 and finally buying a multimeter and feeler gauges, here are my numbers: 0mm VTA-E2: 1 (infinity, there was no deflection/movement on the multimeter) less than .5mm IDL-E2: 047-055, multimeter at 2k, feeler gauge of .483mm. With a .508mm gauge, it read 1. .9mm IDL-E2: 1...

    Issue with boosting, possible boost leak?

    Maybe the tps wasn't bleeding air, I don't remember if it was coming from there or that general area. I replaced the TB and ISC gaskets today, along with the 3000-TB coupler and clamps. I also replaced the injector insulators, O-rings, etc. with the injector kit from DM. Vac hoses are all good...

    Issue with boosting, possible boost leak?

    Background: 1989 7m-gte, automatic, BPU (turbo back exhaust, intake, bosch bpv, AEM Truboost set to 11.5 psi) I can't seem to find this boost/vacuum leak. I can hear something at idle, and its on the driver side around the throttle body, but might be back behind the engine on the intake side...

    Nebraska/Iowa Supras

    I would've loved to see it! I was looking for some supra's at ICC, but only saw a few. There was a red mkiii that I saw pull in, and a blue mkiii with a cf hood. I talked to him last year. That's about all I saw. I did meet Supra Trey though.

    Nebraska/Iowa Supras

    The hood is stock, just custom fabbed and painted. Its actually roll on dry-erase paint, and the louvers are chalkboard paint. I wish I brought some dry erase markers to the car show. But like I said, I didn't plan on entering.. hell, I didn't even wash it. And I saw that 2jz supra on...

    Nebraska/Iowa Supras

    The 1320video show on 84th and I at that hotrod shop? That was my car. Haha I was walking around pretty much the whole time, and we left a little early. I hadn't even planned on entering the car show.. but somebody convinced me.

    B&G spring review

    Never got around to updating this. I've had my B&G's on for about 3 months now, and I love them. A lot of people say that you need to let the springs settle, but with these, as soon as you get them on, they're pretty much settled. I wish I had measured the difference between stock and these, but...

    Searching a rear picture of a 89+ tail light center

    Not sure if USDM/JDM lenses are different at all, but I bought a second set to tint out, and when I switched them over, I didn't feel like messing with the lock or the wiring or anything. So what I did is just pop the lens off the new center section and swap it with the lens that's already on...

    Craziest thing you've ever intimidated

    Ealier body style SRT8 grand cherokee was pretty intimidated when I pulled on him from a roll, and then a dig. From what I could tell it wasnt stock, exhaust for sure and an A-pillar pod with 3 gauges. Who the hell knows what gauges he needed for that thing.. For all I know they could be a...

    How to Fix that Busted Up Front Lip!

    The fiberglass mesh on the back didnt really harden, and probably isnt necesarry, but it pulls the two pieces of the lip together and the flexseal holds it in place. Is it actually helping structurally? I have no idea. I have no doubt that it'll hold vibrations and flexing, as its literally...

    How to Fix that Busted Up Front Lip!

    Since I doubt very many people know me, I guess ill introduce my car first: '89 Auto 7m-gte, white package and blue leather interior. 100k on the clock, and my grandfather has owned it since 1990. It was completely stock when I bought it and in immaculate condition for a 23 year old car. I've...

    Nebraska/Iowa Supras

    There's a couple of us here in Omaha. I have an '89 white package turbo, somewhat BPU. It's decently fast, but its damn clean. A friend of mine has a '91 turbo, also white. His is quite a bit faster, you might've seen him at ICC or down at MAM later that night. I've seen a pre89 blue N/A...
