    Boss Jr. 57 Trim Sleeper

    That is good to know. I know it is better than a CT26 by far, but I am glad to see a first hand account. I just bought by 57 jr from SupraSport. I want it streetable, and about 350-375 rwhp. Not 500, and scaring people or hard to control when it hits that hard.

    The Luxocruiser 3650 lb sled thread

    I changed my mind. I don't want to take it apart and put it together this many times. I ordered my Boss Jr. I am not putting the elbow on the CT26. We all know they work way better than the Toyota elbow. As stated, I am looking at 350-375 rwhp, and not more. It should be very streetable...

    Loose wires!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The pump doesn't prime unless you have an engine run signal. Unless, you short the FP pin in the diagnsotic box. I don't know if you were refering to that or not. This sounds like timing to me. Having a lot of fuel doesn't necessarily mean rich. Lack of burn will put fuel right out the...

    fuel pump relay mod

    Amps don't push voltage. Amperage is the actual flow, resisted by....resistance. Voltage is the push, the difference.

    The Notorious 90 Degree hose

    I changed one of those once. One of my old 7MGE's, a dark blue 87. I don't remember it being difficult. I probably just pulled the distributor out of the way and had room to work.

    7mge head bolts????

    The stock headbolts are as strong as the 2JZ head bolts, if you think it is an issue.

    ?? about MK4 TT wheels + found a source for centercaps??

    I was going to say not everybody's wheels rub. Existing wear and tear coupled with lowered suspensions matter quite a bit.

    Question about fuel injectors

    New is also good. http://www.suprasport.com/LIPP-AFM-with-adjustable-set-screw_p_178.html Here is an example compared to stock. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?67868-The-Luxocruiser-3650-lb-sled-thread&highlight=sled+thread

    Crank Clearance problems...

    Getting rid of the pressure bypass for a temp based thermostat is one of the best mods you can do. Consider it. It isn't hard to do.

    car dies below 3k

    What else did you not unhook when you too the head off? Correctly installing a distributor/CPS is not hard. I think you have a big hole in the intake after the airflow meter.

    That and if you expect an educated answer you will get one.

    Not wanting to start

    Well, replace the alternator if you are sure it is bad. Then recharge the battery. If you have to jump start the battery, then it is discharged. The longer it is discharged, the more likely the battery will not recover. If the terminals are loose, you could have the exact same symptoms. The...

    Lopey idle, sometimes stalling, after 550/Lex mods

    34 triggers fuel cut, not the other way around. Maybe you should just swap to a "1j" as the ricers call it. That will fix your problem. If not, be sure to buy a coil pack and switch that one, since buying parts that are not known to be bad work for you. Have with your stalling car that you don't...

    Lopey idle, sometimes stalling, after 550/Lex mods

    Ignoring the rest of the post, you better believe people will sell mismatched garbage. I am sure Obama can give a legitmate sounding solution. I have 12 440cc injectors, and 6 550. You have to realize, based on the information you provided, which is 2 flow at one rate, 4 at a...

    starting/ running problem

    That was sarcasm. Optima, bottom of the barrell. Now he really has a reason to pick. Moving along, What are the DTC's? (24 and 31?)

    Ignition problem?

    Why would it say something different?

    Is the cruise control switch fused?

    What year, and what does the EWD show for that year? The switch only sends a signal, it doesn't do high amp work, so that is your free hint.

    Mrs M says the same thing every time she rides in it, especially the trip we made out there. I will see if I can make it.

    solid pinion spacer (crush sleeve)

    How is bearing preload achieved? Shims won't do it, they will just change clearance. I just asked a coworker from GM Powertrain (he isn't there anymore). The preload is just coming from the nut, and more and more models will go to it. It is simple and he says it works.
