    Long story but possible ecu issue (link g4 ecu)

    Glad you found it. I want to point something out that will slow you down in the future. Know what I mean?

    ABS delete question on brake lines

    Despite producing some cars that are no more than a turd in the punchbowl, GM knows very well how to build cars and do it right.

    Field artillery will lawn dart when the load is dropped (accidentally) from the bird. Or so I have been told.

    ABS delete question on brake lines

    I know, I said steer while locked, or what would be locked. You haven't had to do it, as shown by your explination below about things I am very familiar and educated on. Well, yeah. (you set yourself up, I had to do it) You think your abilities are better than the most accomplished race...

    smoking at idle and idle only

    You aren't the first person to pull the cat and get smoke afterwards. All it did was reveal your problem.

    smoking at idle and idle only

    As soon as you remove the cat you have excess pollution in the form of smoke and you asked what happened? And yes, the blue tint inside a lighter smoke is oil.

    ABS delete question on brake lines

    ABS allows the vehicle to steer when you "lock up" the brakes. You clearly have not had that situation unfold while driving if you think they are the same. I agree, don't do it. It allows you to steer because the brakes don't lock up. The actuator is doing the same as pumping the pedal, only far...

    Is my brake master cylinder dead?

    So....is there still air in the rear? The rear is bled before the front. In fact, the right rear is bled first, then work your way to the left rear, right front, and finally, left front.

    2 Issues Strange Cranking Noise and Long Idle Issue

    I would start here. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=FI&P=112 That is the cold start circuit. Just because it is plugged in doesn't mean it is working. Pull codes. There are a few things you would be looking for. DTC 22 is the engine coolant temp circuit. If...

    DDP vs Elbow + DP vs DP w/ Elbow

    The law is never to be used on a public road. So if you burn up to 8 tanks of fuel on the road, you are in fact violating the clean air act, and could be fined heavily. Not that I am going to do it. I have nothing to do with the EPA. If you live in an area that does not have a high enough...

    mk3 max piston size

    HKS sold 85mm pistons, along with many other things like Auto trans upgrade kits. Those days are long over. I know of one that tried it, and the block failed. I don't know that it was x-rayed or anything else. But with what IJ is saying, don't bother. You want a bigger engine? Get an LS3 all...

    Injector resistor bypass=87 mkIII. to run high imp 550cc injectors

    High amperage will open faster, all else being equal. Toyota went to high impedance injectors to save manufacuring costs and reliabilit (deposits-heat) increases. Not because they work better. Large injectors are still low impedance, but with the lighter components. You are like those that say...
