    1990 Toyota Supra Turbo Buildup - Satans Little Helper...

    Woot! Finally, you got around to viewing the thread :p Any problems you can forsee? I've decided to get some spare turbo water & oil feed gaskets just in case the softlines don't work out, although i loathe the idea of removing and reinstalling the turbo for what seems like the 8th time. Going...

    1990 Toyota Supra Turbo Buildup - Satans Little Helper...

    Well, i've been outside today - first time in months that i've done something productive with the damn thing! Thank the weather for getting warmer (10+ degrees outside!), and the dry day :D Originally, all i was going to do - was install the alternator, but on finding out that the alternator...

    3P's TCCS Disassembly/Analysis

    Whilst poking around on the net the last few days, i came across this: http://www.planetsoarer.com/ecu/ecu.htm Which looks like the exact same thing we're doing here. Hell, to some extent, it even looks the same, right down to the Xilinx CPLD: Possibly worth dropping the guy an email? From...

    Safe without power steering?

    Mk3 + no power steering = STUPID. These are heavy cars - they were DESIGNED with power steering in mind, every single one of them had it fitted, even the 1G-GE models, which were the lightest of all. If you want to risk your life by running a hack job on the steering system, go ahead, but don't...

    Does anyone here use Solidworks?

    Second go at the CT26 oil feed/drain flange - this time, instead of being setup for weldable JIC fittings, the holes are sized to be ready for M10 and M20 taps, so you can screw in JIC adaptors. Cross section - note that this time i've added a 0.75mm fillet to each hole, in the case of the...

    Does anyone here use Solidworks?

    i figured it out - rather than trying to make the shape, and then sink the holes into it - i make the holes first, sorted out all the distances and the like, and then used points, and the spline tool to make the rest of it. Have a look: Now i just need someone to make it :D

    Does anyone here use Solidworks?

    All i need to do - is make a Simple shape, a 4 sided flange, with curved 'corners' as it were. Like a stretched diamond, the only thing is - i've been fiddling with solidworks for hours, i can make everything i need to, but on a rectangle, or a circle, i can't make this shape - solidworks only...

    Toyota A-Series Transmission controller

    First design of it - no - we're tailoring this for the 7M setup first of all - if you can get those flowcharts - that'd be great, the sort of flowchart for software, not for fluid though!

    Toyota A-Series Transmission controller

    Good News, everyone! Thanks to a few others jumping on board, the hardware design has reached beta, we have an idea of how we're controlling everything, and instead of an Atmel AVR - we're going with a Xilinx FPGA instead - this way we can tailor it to our specific application. Compared to the...

    Moving back in with the parents to save money?

    In some cases, in the UK, it's becoming damn near impossible to afford anywhere to live. Rents approaching £800 to £1000 a month for even the shittiest place excluding any kind of bills. Property prices are insane outside of the US. Most people my age are still living with their folks, not...
