    my 1990 supra build!?

    Any turbo dipstick will work. If you are missing the dipstick tube that bolts to the turbo and slides into the lower dipstick tube of the block, you will need that also.

    Odd Question time - RE: 7MGE on Engine Stand

    Keep in mind its best to take the pan off if you are going to flip the motor over. Any debris that may have accumulated at the bottom of the pan over time could potentially drop all over your pistons and crank when you turn it upside down. I have never been able to turn a completely assembled...

    Coolant, Intake Side

    I can't find a good pic, but there is a coolant line coming off the metal coolant hardline that runs around the back of the block, and it should go to the bottom of the throttle body. The other throttle body port should have a hose going to the ISC, then from the ISC a hose should be going down...

    oil leak question

    Yeah, you can use 3/8" hose. Its a tight fit, heating up the hose end in some boiling water helps stretch it over the fitting (credit to IJ on that one). Just make sure it is oil safe hose.

    Battery and Brake lights are on.

    Even if the alternator was completely hollowed out, you should have at least battery voltage to the positive post of the alternator. Did you check the fusible link?

    My *sort of* build thread. (PIC WHORE)

    Well it has been smoking for some time now, I have another thread on here with all the details. Pretty sure it is a ring issue at this point. I just changed the valve stem seals and the first 3 cylinders are still filling up with oil after idling for a period of time. When i take off from a long...

    My *sort of* build thread. (PIC WHORE)

    Fuel cut with Mapecu

    http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291410/catalog.aspx?F=1708&P=3 That's the stock vac line setup, the rear port in the manifold should be feeding the heater valve and the cruise control. You can tee off this for your boost gauge and map sensor. Did you reset your fuel pressure after...

    Fuel cut with Mapecu

    This is a problem. The throttle body ports are ported vacuum, not manifold vacuum. You need a dedicated manifold vacuum source for your FPR, otherwise when you get into boost, the fuel pressure wont rise properly. Connect the proper vacuum source to the regulator and you may find that you will...

    Fuel cut with Mapecu

    Considering you are speed density, boost leaks cannot cause fuel cut. Do you have any way of monitoring the emulated AFM frequency output (not familiar with he map ecu)? Fuel cut will happen around 1500 hz, but depends on other factors including coolant temp, throttle position etc, but for a...

    questions about ACIS! and how it really functions

    It could be malfunctioning. How are you watching it when you are flooring it and above 4,200 RPM anyways? At low throttle and low RPM it should be open, and it will close at throttle angles above 60% below 4,200 RPM.

    questions about ACIS! and how it really functions

    Theres a sticky on this :) http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?144276-ACIS-Reference-Thread While over 60% throttle and high RPM the valve is opened, effectively shortening the runners.

    Battery and Brake lights are on.

    Yeah make sure you have proper charging voltage with the engine running. Anything that causes the battery light to illuminate will also cause the tail lamp failure light as well as the brake light to illuminate, so it is a charging issue. Make sure the belt is tight and in good shape, make sure...

    my 1990 supra build!?

    You have gray plug harness, so you need an ecu that is 89+ with gray plugs on it, it doesn't have to be the exact year. Make sure you get one that is for manual trans.
