    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    I know you guys think I gave up or something, but i didn't. I've just been too busy to work on my car. Only thing I have to report lately, is that I replaced my crap Chinese $15 Ebay fpr with a fuel labs unit. It fix my rail pressure bleed-off somewhat, so I'm happy I spent the money...

    Coolant tubes dont match Cygnus diag.

    Ive used that in the past as well, but it will eventually crack from exhaust heat. I installed my last one with some reflective DEI heat tape around it, and it lasted for 6+ years, with no cracking.

    Aeromotive FPR Issue - High pressure at idle / Low pressure with boost

    The connections look good, but the original vac line to the fpr was the small vac line under that large 90 degree vac line on the side of the intake manofold. Whats connected to that now? Also, what size lines are those? AN6? I used to live in Kennesaw too. Now i'm in Lawrenceville.

    Code 51 / TPS ('88 7M-GTE)

    Verify that you have the multimeter in the correct range for the VC/VTL-E2 checks. Some multimeters cut at 2000ohms, and you need to select the next range value.

    Heat shielding intake gasket

    I've used the gasket you're talking about for 5 years on my last engine, no leaks. Your mileage may vary, and who knows how much good the gasket really does?

    Coolant tubes dont match Cygnus diag.

    Umm- Pass the cost on to the customers?? I think they might have wanted to just go ahead and sell more cars, rather than raising the price even higher.

    Small Fixes; High Idle, EBrake

    You can't adjust your tps by moving it and driving it around. The difference between correct adjustment and incorrect, is maybe a 1/4mm. It has to be adjusted per the TSRM sequence. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=101

    Speedometer problem?

    Get under your car, and unscrew the speedo cable at the passenger side. You will see a keyed end once you take it out. Have someone put their fingers on the gauge end, as you spin the tranny end by hand. If no movement, then one of the two sections of cable is broken. Unscrew the lower section...

    What part of wiring harness do I need?

    No, I'm saying use the 87-88 harness, and just figure out what connectors you might need to buy to replace any missing items. OR, you could plug the 89+ harness in after repinning it(without using 87-88 harness plugs). You need to look at the two pinout diagrams to see the differences. Also...

    Are you bowing out of the Supra game entirely, Grim?

    What part of wiring harness do I need?

    Fusebox harness doesnt need to be swapped out. You only need the engine harness. If you use the 89+ harness though, you will need to repin a few items to work with an 87-88 ecu. Also, some of the sensor plugs on it wont match some of the 87-88 sensors. I would suggest that you loosely install...

    Where do these MAF wires go?

    Looked at the tewd's for 88- and 89+. Don't see all those colors for the MAF(colors to MAF remained unchanged thru the years.). Only yellow wire I see going to the ecu is for FP. Can you unwrap that tape a bit farther to verify nothing was spliced higher up?

    Weir stage 2 LSD upgrade review!

    I did the stage 1 kit on mine, but im not sure what the breakaway torque is now. I don't plan on ever drifting it, so im not too worried. I did install a solid pinion spacer on mine- its similar to setting up the lash, in that you have to add the right amount of shims to get the pinion set right.
