Old thread, I know. I was in the search engine to answer an old repeating question. I don't think it is sad. I think it is a great thing. The wife never says no to riding in it. There is one cam gear in the FE head. The cams rotate from a common gear drive to save space. And yes, with...

You said you wondered about an 88 Supra with a 7MGE. The car tested by Car and Driver is an 86.5, and will not be different from the 88. Aside from weather and altitude on that days testing. I also documented a bunch of info from stock cars tested, besides the articles scanned. These are all...

WOT is wide open throttle. When you put your foot on the floor, the throttle plate opens as wide as it can. That is what WOT means. Maximum TPS voltage is sent to the ECU. And you will be in open loop on the stock TCCS. TPS is a correction to RPM and airflow. It tells the ECU your intention...

My BOSS with ceramic ball bearing will be dyno tested. After I pick it up and install it.

A 3650 lb car(with driver) with 200 flywheel horsepower will go about 88.35 mph in the quarter mile. Many factors influence the ET, besides the area under the curve. A mid to high 15 in decent air with a 4.30 and W58. Click on my original Supra reviews post in the refrence section. A...

Non ball bearing makes it a GT35 and not a GT35R, in Garrett nomenclature, correct?

You could have a stuck number 1 solenoid. That would put you in direct drive, which is 3rd. You will accelerate very slowly. I am not sure if there will be a DTC set if a solenoid fails or is physically stuck(from lack of maintenance). An open or short circuit sets a code.

The Titan version seems to be destroked, and a spark ignition. I want the oil burner. At 1800 horsepower, the oil burner would likely have 3781 lb/ft of torque. It could sit in the driveway right next to the Yukon.

If the 86.5 has a better interior, I would use that car. You could make that a really quick street car with the short gearing. When will you go over 140 mph anyway? The best price option is to probably start with a donor car, like the one you aren't allowed to have. Then renew the engine...

http://www.toyomoto.com/ The had a 600 horsepower Supra, before the 2JZ even came out. I think. I remeber the cover to Turbo magazine. Back when it was good. It covered Buicks, Mustangs, and Supras. Bright red. Too bad they moved on.

I have seen a couple of igniters die when hot. But they were Corolla's, and it was only a couple of times. Strange, since that engine makes very little heat.

I wondered if that would get your attention. Their manifold is quite "ugly", but it is not divided, so it should have a little more peak flow. I don't believe it either.

Probably not what you are thinking. Or maybe it is. The 4.2 diesel, blown. I like it. If they weren't an arm and a leg, I would pay the extra to import it. It probably needs particulate filters in the exhaust. Among other things. If only we could get better engines in the US. Or at...

Based on the log manifolds for sale that claim to have supported 1000hp, more than that. As we have a semi-log, short runner. Or there are liars for vendors, big time.

They weren't bedded right, and melted. After the rotors are cleaned, you can check for runout, parallelism, and warpage.

The tire pressure on the side is part of a statement. Read it. It says the tire can handle a maximum weight load at the set pressure. It is a warning about overload. That has nothing to do with hou much air you should use. There are many factors, put out in this thread. If you are extensively...

That is true. Why do yo doubt that? The writing on the tire does indicate the type of tire it is. No, they didn't. They chose a tire pressure to compromise with the tire that is on it, the old gatorback when new, comfort, long life, and and handling. If you had a 4 cyl Camry, tire...

Wow.
