    No Boost Cut !!!!!!

    Obviously it doesnt. But the knock sensor tells when it should. The only thing wrong is having one isntead of two. The two are for extra sensitivity, as Toyota over does just about everything. You shouldnt go too high on power anyway. You want 400rwhp, get a Supra Turbo. A good tune, and...

    Explain the CPS to me in detail

    That wasnt enough info on how it operates? To get the amount of teeth, I think you will need to count it physically. I know I sure as hell havent done that. Do you know what a relucter wheel is? Or better yet, do you understand inductive magnetism. Becuase that is what the wheel is doing...

    oil leak

    If it isnt the rear of the valve cover, it is the rear main bearing cap seal. You must seperate the engine from the trans to change it.

    Using Shell Rotella T 15W-40 oil

    Your gauge went up becuase the more viscous oil did not flow as well. Pressure is resistance to flow.

    No Boost Cut !!!!!!

    That GE airflow meter is called the vane air flow meter. You could change the AFM to the MR2 turbo VPC setup. It uses the same meter. If you can find one on ebay.

    Pinks on with an import. THE ACTUAL guy :)

    Unfortunately I think it is very accurate. The overwhelming majority of import performance parts and support is for Honda, not the Supra or Toyota. And most are piss ass slow with nothing more than a fart pipe and bad paint. When one actually can run a high 14 at the track, there is a crowd of...

    Battery Disconnect Because of Small Power Draw

    Have a buddy watch your test light hooked up to ground and the negative post of the battery while you pull the fuses one at a time. When it goes out, you found out which circuit it is.

    CHANGED hg, fixed valves, no start.

    If the vaccum lines were not hooked up to the fuel VSV, he would still have pressure. Is this the same engnine as the other thread? You did not fix the problem and just assumed bhg? Or did you see something in the teardown?

    turbo ignition for the non-turbo????

    Building or buying a controller to give you 3 ignition fire signals. The ignitiers are not interchangable. HKS sold the controller at one time, seperate or with their 7MGE turbo kit. You could try ebay for the part.

    Are there many 1UZ-FE MA70's out there?

    An FE head is just a head with a gear drive and one cam pulley on the head for space on V engines. Yes, I know what an S series engine is. I also think the 1UZ has great potential.

    Warning, Iraq post. WMD? Nahhhh.....

    Grimjack, I am not saying you are trying to rewrite history. I am saying those that write history (teachers and publishers) are trying to rewrite it. And hide it by saying it is written by the winners. My mistake, I know you arent trying to rewrite anything. No that isnt what you said. Nice...

    Tranny Question!!!!!!!!! Help!!!!!

    Who really thinks they can get away with going 156 mph instead of 135 mph anyway?

    help with decision

    The surface needs to be flat more than polished unless you are going MHG. Then you need both. Make sure you check for coolant leaks thoroughly.

    Are there many 1UZ-FE MA70's out there?

    I dont think having a gear drive the cams hurts anything. The 1MZ FE Avalon/Camry head flows plenty of air. The V8 Supra is a terrific idea. And if Toyota sells one for '07 or '08, I am in. Dean Marcum has also done the conversion. The bigger the pump, the more air it can flow.

    Warning, Iraq post. WMD? Nahhhh.....

    Well not really. He was always a threat to us, and we always watched him. We (the US) has a vested intrest in ideoligies of the ruler and circumstance, not the country. This nation started as bitter enemies of Great Britain. So we should still be enemies? Of course not. That was then, this is...
