    Composite head gaskets - Toyota vs Fel-Pro

    I don't think so. Fel-Pro makes nice gaskets. In fact, they do make many OEM big name gaskets. Do they ship to Japan? I think not. Who ever said they were bad anyway?

    Code 12

    A leaking EGR valve will cause a rough idle also. Even stalling if it is wide open.

    Sport/LSD

    Huh? Don't have what? LSD? 4 of my 5 Supras have had LSD, including 3 GE's, and none had the "sport package".

    fuel cut?

    Fuel cut happens when the airflow meter hits a certain frequency under certain conditions. If you are not putting the air through the engine, which is a huge restriction, flow goes way up, and you hit fuel cut quickly. That is why it could be an intake leak. Or your set up is moving more air...

    Knock sensor questions

    All OEM nuts and bolts are metric. Yes, an upgraded rewire is a good idea, as many have trouble with open/short trouble code. I wouldn't buy a used knock sensor. The only reason to sell it is it does not work, or the car is scrapped and being parted. It isn't like buying an intake...

    91-92 Auto's

    I haven't seen TSB's or new vehicle overview for a 91 or 92 for transmissions. According to the 89 press releases, that year had an upgrade.

    woo hoo!!! Car is running with big ass turbo!!!

    A bigger turobcharger moves more air with less restriction. Of course you hit fuel cut sooner. Good job. Now go spank somebody's ass at the red light.

    timing answer please.

    Nothing wrong with voicing an opinion. What do you mean back up spark and fuel? You are not supposed to drive the car in diagnostic mode.

    Daily driven supras?

    The exhaust? Have you not seen how big the mufflers are? This is one of the quietest cars ever made. If you go to open pipes, that is different. The car serves as a great daily driver. Comfortable seats, good mileage, isolated from the outside world with the windows up and top on, what more...

    They failed in geography? And then put central plains and rocky mountain region in the midwest.

    Sport/LSD

    You don't need a sports package for the LSD.

    timing answer please.

    No. Diagnostic mode. Limp mode was used for a short period of time, but caused pollution, the one thing it was trying to stop. Limp mode was used when a critical input was lost, so timing and injector duration were set a fixed levels.

    Advice Installing Gaskets

    That is to keep the gasket in place when holding a component something other than upright and flat. Not for sealing.
