    5.0 supra its a comin

    Agreed. The guy that lives in the downstairs apartment has a 5.0 Mustang. He blows twice as many HG's as any 7M owner I know. His car is for sale BTW. Fully built motor with fresh everything (incl. HG's), TKO trans, Moser rear and a bunch of other stuff. $4k negotiable. It'd be cheaper (and a...

    mystery part on speedo drive

    I believe this is the valve stem seal thing you are talking about- http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/at/AT_042.html The speedometer driven gear in the transmission is a pretty simple setup. Here is the exploded view from the EPC-...

    15Qts of Oil in a 7M, Never a Good Idea "Pics"

    I knew a girl that had an old Jeep as her first car. It would burn a quart a week and she had gotten used to topping it off. Finally, she broke down and got a new Jeep. Guess what? She kept right on adding a quart a week to the new Jeep, thinking it was normal maintenance. After a few months...

    what activates the fuel pump?

    Yes, fuel pump is under ecu control thru a series of relays. The mk3 system doesn't provide a "prime shot" like alot of other cars do.

    Why DLI won't fire COP

    I agree with that statement. :drink1: The compression coil is charged the same as the wasted coil though.

    Why DLI won't fire COP

    What lead you to the conclusion that coil primary resistance would increase due to cylinder pressure? A little birdie told me that N/A plug wires work good for moving the stock coil pack off the cam covers.

    Toda Hi lift cams 264 10.3mm(7mgte)

    Cool, wasn't aware of that. I forgot to mention that Jeff Watson @ Champion Toyota can source these parts for people here in the states.

    Toda Hi lift cams 264 10.3mm(7mgte)

    IIRC, it is a small 4 cylinder, only available in Japan. They have a small nipple on the bottom of the bucket that serves as the shim and they are available in different sizes. I did a writeup on the old Supramania, too bad it is gone forever. There is a nice writup I found on one of the 4AG...

    Toda Hi lift cams 264 10.3mm(7mgte)

    I don't think so. A custom made chip might help some but, a VPC is using the manifold pressure the stock cams create to define the AFM signal it sends to the ECU. A "MAP ECU" might fare a bit better, since you can change the signal it sends pretty much where you want to, it can compensate for VE...

    Toda Hi lift cams 264 10.3mm(7mgte)

    I wouldn't put those cams in a street car. I also wouldn't try to run them with a speed density piggyback. I have the TRD "Group A" cams in my GTE, slightly more agressive than the ones you are asking about. They make for a pretty poor street car but can be alot more fun at the track. Use...

    Using JZ's igniter in 7M-GTE (+)

    Results as in "the fruits" of the effort (I.E. detailed schematics).

    Using JZ's igniter in 7M-GTE (+)

    The stock JZ will have 2x the dwell of the 7M, since it is not a wasted fire system. The 7M ignitor is going to fire the coils twice per cycle, just like it did with the stock coils. This is providing 1/2 the dwell the JZ coils need to charge. Using two ignitors simply feeds twice the current in...

    Using JZ's igniter in 7M-GTE (+)

    My advice is going to cost more, since it is actually accurate. IGT has absolutely no control over dwell time. It is simply a trigger signal that controls ignition timing. Dwell time is controlled internal to the ignitor on the 7MGTE, 1JZGTE and 2JZGTE. I also happen to know for a proven...

    Using JZ's igniter in 7M-GTE (+)

    I don't plan to. If I asked for help on something original, I most certianly would post all the details up for the community that helped me put it together rather than make them pay for it. Maybe I should start charging for advice. Tell Tem to ban me. I've been screwed by enough of his...

    Using JZ's igniter in 7M-GTE (+)

    Regardless of how much assistance I provided in the end, I feel my time reading your questions and posting replies was wasted. I offer technical advice to help fellow mk3 Supra owners with thier cars. I don't offer technical advice to buisness people developing new products. That isn't what this...

    Using JZ's igniter in 7M-GTE (+)

    Getting my new supra home?

    The state of New York has a special temporary "in transit" tag available for exactly the circumstances you describe, similar to what Pioneer has on the back of his Q45. How they do it in Massachusetts or Maryland I do not know, every state is different. I would hope the seller would be willing...
