    Fuel psi regulator install

    The rear one is the fuel pulsation dampener. People sometimes remove that as well, but you want to replace the front one. That's where the fuel is exiting the rail, headed for the J-tube down on the side of the block, and heads back to the tank. I assume you're replacing/ or have replaced the...

    No accel during boost..whining after shut off

    Assuming your engine is a turbo and not an na-t, the O2 sensor should be of the 3-wire type. IIRC, two of the wires are the heating element circuit, and the third is the signal wire. And it does make sense that this could be your problem, as when a 7mgte is cold, the car is in open loop...

    MKIII supra drag race looses targa

    Same same, verbatim. Only mine didn't come off till about 65mph, and it scared the shiite muslim outta the CRX driver behind me. He got out of the way in time though, since the top gained so much altitude before falling.

    New Turbo-A decals

    You just ordered them from the local dealer? I figured you couldn't get those here since the cars weren't sold here. BTW- How much were they? Dang Canuckrz- you just beat me in.

    No accel during boost..whining after shut off

    Seriously- I know you mentioned a new cat, but it really does sound like a cat blockage. Happened to me, and I started bogging more and more when going into boost. Took it off and found it was like 80% blocked. Replaced it and bam! crazy boost right into FC. PS- my cat clogged up in less than 8...

    lets play a guessing game, wat do you think broke?

    It's the head gasket. sorry- I know that didn't help, but it's late and I couldn't resist. Good luck, and when you find out what it was, you ARE required to post the result here for posterity.

    Blown headgasket...

    Flush your cooling system thoroughly and get rid of that brown crud in it! Also, that cooling reservoir can be removed by pulling it straight up, and off its mount(watch your fingers though). Blast it out with a hose to get rid of all the crap in it while you're cleaning the whole system. I also...

    Juntao 5m swap to mk3 first I have heard of

    Back in 1985, my college roomate(yes- I'm THAT old) had a brand new 84 Supra, and he had to replace the valve stem seals in his 5M three times over 25,000 miles. Was that a common issue with 5M's? I ask, because I don't know.

    Motor Swap

    I once pulled the motor w/ the power steering pressure hose still connected- messed it all up. As for the clutch, remove the two inspection covers, and you remove the clutch fork by pulling it straight out. Then you rotate the motor so you can get at each clutch pressure plate bolt.

    "Knock, knock! Who's there? You're motor b**ch!"

    That might just be the injectors..... NOT. sorry man- but that just means it's time for a turbo swap.

    F1 Clutch Never again

    I have the F1 stage 3 with an aluminum flywheel, and it's slipping after~ 5,000 miles. I don't beat on the car much, and I don't think I have more than 275tq at the wheels. I actually think my front tranny seal might be leaking and contaminating the disc, but when I replace it, I'm going to make...

    Georgia Supras

    Hey guys- I went down to the Varsity this past Thursday(9/3) and I was the ONLY mk III that I saw. In fact, I only saw 1 or 2 Mk IV's there, and the owners weren't around their cars. It was, however, packed. Lotta s13/s14's, Suby's and Hondas, and a few vette's, mustangs, etc. the most...
