Check it exactly the way the TSRM says, if you think that is the problem. http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/fi/FI_106.html And this is the way I go about doing things. But I think its fully worth the price of admission to get brand new parts you KNOW have a long life ahead of them...

Just to reinforce what everyone has said. I also think that it is either a boost leak or fouled plugs. Though I have never delt with oil between the valve covers personally before that could be a problem with the plugs I suppose.

If the car is bone stock I'm not completely sure that is normal. My car since I've had it never had the stock DP on it, but I don't remember any fall off at high RPM at that low of a boost. 13psi now it falls off a lot at high RPM, but thats a lot more pressure for that same little turbo. It...

Only thing I can think of that even runs at that time is the fuel pump, which could be on its way out like gixxer had mentioned. The bubbling is air in the heater core more likely then not. If you think you put too much oil in, check the dip stick. :)

Actually for being that small and light it packs a pretty good punch. Now, I'm not powering anything off of it like a million watt stereo or anything; but I have left my lights on for about 3 hours before, to my suprise it cranked up at its normal speed. One thing you can't do tho is let it...

The stock turbo from my findings (not upgraded) really runs out of steam from 5800-6500 RPM. It just kind of dies off at the end, so a bolt on I think would be your best bet (smallest SP or BOSS turbo should do, and it'll be a lot more reliable then a upgraded CT)

Well it will vary greatly between different kits from the same brand. With a disk though at 400 whp I have my doubts that it will hold for very long.

I as well do not agree with people who say it should not be a 1st car. 1. When you get it, do all maintenance work to it what I did was: -silicone vacuum hoses -replaced every fluid in the car with full synthetic (motor, coolant, trans, diff, brake, clutch, steering ATF) -(I didn't do this...

I swear to you guys I am serious about buying this thing. I'm waiting for them to finish the friggen paper work at the local Toyota so i can start working. I'll buy it just to show I will, even though what I actually want to get done 1st is any body panels I want to replace and then get a...

Mine :)

I only have one car, and like Cryo, I'm 17 and in HS. Supra has been perfectly reliable for me, I keep up extremely well with maintenance and watch my Greddy guages pretty well. Mods: Apexi intake Cooleeze full IC pipe kit NGK plug wires NGK Iridiums 1 heat range colder JBLMK3 EGR block...

Would have been nice if I had gotten the one I payed for last time Ideal... I've tried PMing you, tried to get you on AIM and everything else multiple times. Yet I still have no T-shirt or money refunded.

Who cares about where this thread is, especially if there is no OT. F1 is awesome and gets a spot. :) Anyway, Jeff, I remember seeing BAR honda specifically hitting 19k no problem on shifts. The problem was for a while (last year especially) they had to drop them because the motors were...

You may want to use some fuel stabilizer as well. Or at least keep the tank FULL so that it won't go bad as quickly.

Yea, since I have not seen a strictly V8 race in F1 (only been watching for a couple years) this is pretty exciting to see some super high rev V8. I remember that the announcers were predicting 20k+ rpm this year; due to the motors being smaller.

What grim said and also it is slim; but I suppose possible that the engine mounts could be bad and the fan is grating against the shroud.

Cometic will be the most forgiving when it comes to bad prep. Stick with cometic.

Just leave it zeroed out accept what the manual says (IIRC something with the idle) and then get the LM1 and tune it. Don't change a thing until you get the WB though.

I totally trust my car. I'd be happy to take it anywhere; because I take good care of it doing routine maintenance and replacing anything that even looks worn out or slightly rigged or malfunctioning. I have coolant temp, fuel pressure, and oil pressure guages which I watch pretty well. But i...

Like I've said to you before ma71supraturbo, but I'll make it public here as well as SF. Mine has this gap; I have done many high speed runs with it, and a couple hard launches. I've had no fluid leaks or knocks or anything. Driven like this for rought 1500 miles. Not a lot I know, but so far so...
