    Boost leak like symptoms

    Have you tested for boost leaks? Have you checked for codes? How did you discover it was linked to throttle position?

    Divorced Downpipe??

    I'm with Randy on this. The BIC DDP is damn quiet until the wastegate opens, fits like a dream, and no issues with cracking. Hell, the fit is so damn perfect I have it bolted on without any gaskets, and it's still perfectly sealed.

    Steel DBB vs Ceramic TBB?

    I don't know about ceramic in this particular application, but I've been using ceramic ball bearings in other areas for a couple decades now, and it's widely regarded as superior to steel everywhere else.

    R154 and W58 same clutch?

    It's possible to put the disc in backwards, and it causes problems. Did you assemble it like this page details: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=CL&P=11 Specifically, with the 'snout' side of the disc pointed towards the transmission rather than towards the engine...

    What is this tube?

    Depends on how fast it's leaking. A small drip won't affect a pressure test.

    Legal Matter: Realty/Law Experience?

    Do Not Copy isn't the marking the locksmiths pay attention to, that's just there to make the consumers feel happy. :)

    "new" ct26s off the boat from china

    Might be worth it just for the parts. New exhaust housing, new compressor housing, new wheels, and toss the rest! :)

    R154 and W58 same clutch?

    The W58 uses a push type clutch, the R154 uses a pull type. No, there is no possibility that they gave you the wrong one without you noticing. Sounds like the hydraulic lines have air in them.

    That explains the My Little Pony sticker on Duane's Yaris! I knew there was a story behind that...

    Fan Delete

    I'm with Keith on this one, folks. I've seen a lot of problems with e-fans. I've seen very few with stock belt driven fans. I know which one is staying on MY car.

    Supra Drawing

    Very nicely done. Looks very close to the work I did for the lumiblue theme! Is that a photoshop or illustrator image?

    Legal Matter: Realty/Law Experience?

    I suspect that a charge of 'breaking and entering' requires both something broken, which wasn't the case, a key was used, and entering, which also wasn't done by the sounds of things, a lock was simply opened. Remember, IANAL, especially not in the USA, so checking with one can't hurt anything...

    ....aaaaand Star Trek is now dead.

    Hate to be the devil's advocate here, but I've heard the same kind of complaints about every single trek show to date. Seems they've done pretty well, considering this is, what, incarnation six? Find another show that's been that successful.

    Has anyone installed a backup camera in a Supra?

    They are easy to find. www.mp3car.com has at least one just off the top of my head.

    Is this normal (one wheel burnout)

    That's either not the Limited Slip version of our diff, or it's busted. Badly. :) Next question will be... how do you tell if the car came with LSD or not?

    Looking for Toyota pickup / Forerunner...

    My mom's old Mazda pickup looks like it's just bought the farm, so I'm looking for something from the same era as my Mk3 Supra so that I can work on it instead of sending it to these hack mechanics around town. If you know of a late 80s / early 90s series pickup / Forerunner in decent condition...

    prove to me a divorced downpipe is better then a regular 3"

    Vented. Hmm... now we are talking about recirculated? Probably should have put that in your first post instead of changing it halfway through the discussion. There isn't hard evidence for this yet, as he wasn't making that style back when he did the dyno testing to prove the design. The pipe...
