    Torque Pattern

    A buddy of mine has a 7M he bought with his shell he was going to fix up; it also had a bent rod, lol. But that motor has a lot more problems then just a bent rod...

    What should Oil pressure be at various points???

    Well, my aftermarket guage is not installed yet. But on my 89 guage at idle I'm just at "the" line (tiny bit below sometimes) and then at just about anything other then that its 40+ psi. ~90* ambient.

    is it just me or is supraforums down for you too?!?!

    supraforums sucks mainly because its only useful parts are the FS sections. It's just a buch of junk with even reciently new posts. But yes, it goes down all the time.

    Turbo A Ecu in 90T

    That would be amazing (providing it worked nicely) too for the daily drivers. As differing temps and such won't effect the tune; since its always being adjusted.

    Stock wheel weights

    Hey guys, I've been thinking about wheel upgrades and I have been contimplating a couple different options. However, I don't know the weights of a few of them so if anyone knows it would be great. -91-91 5 spoke -MKIV NA 5 spoke Thanks!

    fuel system pressure gauge

    I think your limited to more perminant options like in cabin or mechanical FP guages. Since non-carburated cars run at such a mugh higher pressure I'm assuming that a plug in tool would probably get blown right back out without being threaded in somehow.

    NA LSD rear swap

    Hey guys, I've been looking around and I think it would be interesting to switch to the NA 4.30 rear setup for my DD. Now, I know that I need the rear from an NA Sport package, and that to make the speedo read right again I'd need the NA gear for that as well. However, I was wondering what the...

    Finally!! Another choice for 7m Damper

    IIRC, you said that this was a one-off and it costs a pretty penny. But IJ (or Figgie if you know) if I wrre to call them up and try and get one of these, since they already have one made, could I buy one without having another one-offed? Also, lets hear the price on this thing if anyone...

    antilock light

    I just took out my ABS computer. Is there any way to make that light shut off with the computer removed? Or is it just something I'm going to have to live with?

    How to wire in new guages?

    Okay, Stereo stuff will work fine. Since I don't have a stereo anyway... I saw some people were saying over at SF to wire it into the clock also. but the stereo is easier anyway.

    How to wire in new guages?

    Hey guys, whenever I get my guage pod I'll be installing my new GReddy guages but I have a question as to what I need to tap in to in order to have the work correctly. Here's what the manual says I need: 12V power source line Ignition power source line Parking light source line So whats...

    OIL: Pennzoil vs Amsoil NON-synthetic

    You guys are talking of non-synthetic oils correct? Because I noticed that when I compared my 20w-50 against some non-synthetic oil of a lesser weight the synthetic was still thinner in the cold weather then the dino oil.

    massive brake burning problem

    So, I just went on another trip. With one difference; I removed the ABS computer, and just to make sure it is disabled I easily locked them up by jamming the petal on a wet gravel road. The results were no smoke no smell. Though I am not counting out locked up caliper, for now it seems to...

    massive brake burning problem

    Yea, the wheel didn't have any more resistance then I would think it should have; I'll compare it to the left front to see if its any different. If I were to temporarily disable the ABS how would I go about doing it. Could I just disconnect all the harnesses from the computer?

    massive brake burning problem

    If the one caliper was locked then wouldn't the steering be pulled to one side? Only steering effected symptom I get is pulsing. Last night I also was thinking it could have something to do wth the ABS. So, could it be that the one caliper was engauged only a tad bit? My brakes have some kind...

    massive brake burning problem

    Hey guys, today was the 1st time I was out driving the Supra for a longer trip then 5 minutes in a while since I finally got it insured and registered. However, I ran into quite a problem with my right front brake. During the drive about 20 minutes into it after I had gotten gas on my way back...

    OIL: Pennzoil vs Amsoil NON-synthetic

    Nope, no blue for me. Only smoke I have ever heard someone see come out of my car was black; and I think its just because perofrmance parts were removed just before that and it may have been just re-learning the fuel curve. That was the only time it has done even that. Hmm... need to update...

    OIL: Pennzoil vs Amsoil NON-synthetic

    That Amoil is the exact stuff that I use now. Though I don't know how worn my seals were when I bought the car a year ago using the synthetic has not turned up any leaks actually. My turbo has 104k on the clock and the rest of my motor has 75, only oil i see is a relatively tiny amount in the IC...

    OIL: Pennzoil vs Amsoil NON-synthetic

    Well, from that obnoxous commercial thats always on SPEED; Castrol GTX does have additives to help prevent thermal breakdown. I don't beleive thats synthetic right? As far as Amsoil... I didn't know that they even made a non synthetic solution, lol. But from the extreme quality of their other...
