That is a cool tool, I need one of those. Thanks JJ :)

Stock compression on the n/a isn't all that high. If it was say, 11:1 or better, I could see it being a bit risky. It's not that much higher than the stock turbo CR, iirc. Personally, I like the idea of a higher CR turbo motor, but it would need to be well tuned to run right. If I did decide...

Burping Tool If you are having trouble getting the air out, this might help. I use it on most vehicles, as it prevents spills. It does help get rid of any air that may be trapped in the system as well.

Speaker wire is big enough for the switch to the relay, but not the power or ground to the fan. You want at least 10 ga.(smaller the number, bigger the wire) or bigger multi-strand wire. This chart should help you determine the correct size wire for your needs...

"Air Intake Temperature Sensor Code 24." http://cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=FI&P=96 If you know you have this code, you might want to test and replace as necessary.

Codes??

I thought downshifting for the auto was controlled by the TPS?

I use an alternator from the 89 turbo, auto trans on my 87 n/a. Just had to move the tensioner bracket a little, as the 89 alt. is a little bigger.

hmmm... Actually I think there are some around. You might want to check the n/a section on supraforums. I'm pretty sure you would need some sort of piggy back air/fuel controller at the least.

How about a big turbo on a well built GE with GE electronics, supporting fuel mods, and MaftPro? Too bad high grade gas is so expensive....

I'd be interested as well. That's not much more than I paid for my replacement(alum. with plastic tanks). I need to upgrade it soon...

Although the Ford dual fan set up does work quite nicely(I have them on my car), the rest of your cooling system needs to be in good working order as well. Do the block test mentioned. You can take your radiator to a radiator shop and have it tested, and either cleaned or get a new one. You...

^^ Cool :) I would've jumped on your s.s. during the group buy, but I drive my car every day. Hard to do without a shifter...

It would probably work well, as the tank would gravity feed. Maybe make it big enough to fit in the straps, so its not relying on just the fitting to hold it in place? Might have to make some longer straps, though.

http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=AT&P=41 That's how you test the neutral start switch. Could be any of the afore mentioned problem areas, as well as the relay, broken wires, theft deterrent system, or as simple as a blown fuse. You're not gonna know until you...

The drain is on the bottom of the tank, iirc? I'd be worried about road debris knocking it off. Maybe put the box up by the stock fuel filter location, and run a feed line to it from the tank? Seems I've seen people feeding the sump with the in tank pump, then using that to feed the bigger...

I talked to a guy named Steve at turbochargers.com, and he said a basic rebuild(cleaning, seals, and bearings) would be around $275. This is a Houston company, but you could probably find someone local to you for around the same price. If the turbo is the problem, that is...

Looks like the hose leading to the 3000 pipe is broken at the clamp as well? Is that stainless piece supposed to replace the accordion tube from the turbo to the AFM? Driftmotion(http://store.driftmotion.com/index.php?sid=14684605c1312e&category_id_int=141 at the bottom of the page) sells...
