True...that's the low end. Mines always showed 10 psi at idle before I changed out motors. I did a mod to the oil pump relief valve and get about 10-15 psi at idle (warm) on the new motor.
Unfortunately I have to work most weekends...I kinda watch AzSupra to see when you guys are going to meet up. Haven't been able to make it happen tho. When is the next one?
I'm glad to do the ceramic for you guys...got a lot of experience w/ 7M parts :naughty: Pricing is usually less than...
We've talked...at least PM'ed :naughty: Can't help but get a tan in the winter in the "valley of the sun"...lol
Cave Creek, if you remember...I do the ceramic coatings ;)
Take a look at the pic in this thread, 2nd post...it shows where the oil sensor is located on the motor:

When you added the oil relocation kit and oil cooler (I assume a larger one), you also added volume to the system. And that is not...
Yep...need to listen to GrimJack. This is a true statement.
The square mounts came on '87-88 and some early '89 cars. The round mounts were introduced mid '89 and went to '92.
Heehee...I get a lot of free beer from my buddies as "rental fee"
You talking about the auto tranny? I've always done autos...had one on my Chevlle SS, a turbo 400 w/ a shift kit. Thought I'd go the same route on the Supra, so I had it built to take the HP, installed a 3000 rpm stall...
You're using 15" wheels on a Mk III? That's different...the stock sawblades are 16". Most of us go to a 17" or 18" wheel.
Ok...go here:

It's a tire size calculator. For example, I wanted to go with an 18" rim and need to know what tire...
Thank you JJ...from you than means a lot ;) Spent a lot of hours on that motor.
Yeah...that's a two post with a 9k capacity and yes, the garage is next to my house. It's 55' x 35' w/ a 15' ceiling. :D
Yeah it is...found out the Cressida 7M motor uses the same sensor.
Here's a couple of pics right before the motor went in...no, that's not me. That's one of my crazy friends. We just finished taking the old motor out and cleaning up the engine bay. :biglaugh:
Heehee...that's a chrome ceramic coating :naughty:
That looks good! I didn't go that far down because it will cause a hole on the bottom...didn't want to deal with welding it up. ;)
You can port it easily with an air grinder. It does help with stock turbo spool, but not as much as an aftermarket elbow or big mouth DP. Just be careful how much material you remove...you don't want the steel too thin on the bottom of the inlet.
Here's a comparison pic...you could remove...
Yep...betcha that's the Oil Pressure sensor wire. The blade connector connects to the top and the gray cap fits over the top of the whole whole sensor.
Here's a pic...the oil pressure sensor is the round brass part forward of the oil filter housing, under the forward exhaust manifold heat...
Good to know...never really thought about it, but since I replaced the stock boost guage with a NA voltmeter...that means I can remove the sensor for under the hood.
It does beg another question...how does the stock ECU sense boost? Or is it just based on flow received from the AFM.
