Looks to me like someone left the old oil filter - and possibly the old oil - under their car as they were driving out of the garage. That would make quite the mess.

Not until after I have the new turbo installed! Which should be this week, if I'm lucky.

Someone should mention that Duane is still running a stock clutch type LSD. It's been freshly rebuilt, of course, but still we're talking 800+ whp and nearly 700 wtq.

Boost leak checker FTW... http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19718&highlight=boost+leak+tester

Aaron, I'm sorry, but you just don't understand. If you send me something via FedEx, I still have to pay the duties and taxes. It's usually about 12-15%, depending on the item. They insure it, they ship fast, and so on. If you send me something via UPS, I have to pay the duties and taxes AND...

Errr... actually, with the rod disconnected you just won't be able to build any boost. You should be perfectly fine to drive it like that, as long as you can put up with the sluggish performance. Welding on a washer should fix it nicely.

This is awesome, thanks!

Adjustable height and telescoping steering wheel will come next. These cars are BADASS, they came with features 20 years ago that still don't come on cars today!

In a word... no.

I'm like Mike, I've been in the industry for a long time. I've spoken directly with people who: - put the mouse on the floor, so they could control it like their sewing machine - plugged the computer into a power bar, then the power bar into ITSELF - one lady was complaining that whenever she...

No special tools, and it's pretty easy. I can do it in ~3 hours, so give yourself double that, plus some time to run to the parts store and buy some extra parts that you discover need replacing. :)

Is the wastegate an internal unit? That would be a problem, it's unlikely that any of the manifolds sold for the Supra will adapt easily to an internal wastegate meant for another car... If it's external, then you should likely be able to get a manifold pretty easily. Then you're just left...

Let's not, and say we did, ok? Mike is paying the bills for this, and he wouldn't appreciate everyone running up his bills for no reason.

It'll be a big hassle unless it happens to be the unit that was built for the Supra, which I'd consider to be unlikely at best. Turbonetics does put a 60-1 or 62-1 compressor wheel, on a Garret center section, inside CT26 housings. Horsepower Freaks sells them.

There are so many things wrong here...

That's a stock flywheel.

Luckily, he's not the only guy around here with a camera. :D New ARP's holding on the flywheel: Picture of the engine bay, engine running, after we finished putting everything back together yesterday. I'm sure Duane isn't posting much right now because he's busy terrorizing all the local...

Get a new one, they don't cost much. They are officially size baby buffalo.

Tearing it down was pretty funny - well, from my point of view, anyway. We're both under the car, trying to get the tranny to come down, and it won't. We knew something was wrong because the flywheel was loose. So, I persuade Duane that we should separate the pressure plate from the flywheel...

Injectors have no effect on fuel cut. They could all be stuck on - or off, for that matter, and it wouldn't trigger a code 34. The fuel pump is likewise not involved. The guys are right, in that we've seen this error code thousands of times, and it's always been a boost leak. How did you...
