    Yeah, it's all good. What better way to get a ticket than running two supras at WOT!!!

    ***Centralia Spring Meet & Greet - May 3rd***

    Well, all the Tri-City folks made it home! It was my first meet and it was a lot of fun. At least until Dunckel got me a $175.00 ticket! :biglaugh:

    Aeromotive AFPR Questions (Newly Installed)

    Yeah, that's what I thought it was. It was scary! I need to get my walbro installed. After that, Maft Pro and a set of 550's! :icon_bigg I'm hoping that turning up the pressure to 40 will be enough to keep the fuel rail pressurized. I don't like the excessive cranking that I'm...

    Aeromotive AFPR Questions (Newly Installed)

    Well, I am very much a newb the supra scene entirely! Not sure if it was fuel cut. I'm shimmed to 11psi of boost so I know I'm right at the point of fuel cut; but, never hit it before. When this happened, the seat belt was the only thing keeping me from going threw the windshield. (not...

    Aeromotive AFPR Questions (Newly Installed)

    I am going to turn up the pressure to 40 today. I can't see any harm in that. Yesterday, when I merged onto the freeway, I got on it a bit and I either hit fuel cut or I need to turn up the pressure a bit. She fell on her face at about 4500rpm. Scared the crap out of me! :biglaugh: When I...

    No; but, I bypassed it. I installed the full kit along with the regulator. SS lines and all.

    Aeromotive AFPR Questions (Newly Installed)

    I still have stock injectors and fuel pump. I set my fuel pressure to 35psi with the vacum tube off. Any problems with that setting? What is the typical fuel pressure at idle w/vacum tube attached? I also notice that since I've installed the regulator, the car cranks longer before...

    2 Questions. re: AFPR & Puff of smoke.

    Yeah, sometimes then and sometimes just at idle. It seems random though.

    2 Questions. re: AFPR & Puff of smoke.

    I set the pressure with the vacum tube off. My turbo is new; but, it did the same smoke thing prior to the new turbo and prior to the regulator.

    2 Questions. re: AFPR & Puff of smoke.

    Question #1: I just installed my Aeromotive AFPR this weekend and now my car cranks longer prior to starting. Is this normal with these regulators? Once started there are no issues. There don't appear to be any leaks and fuel pressure is set to 35psi. Question #2: Unrelated to...

    I'm changing my timing belt and this is what I found. What does it indicate?

    I'm thinking that too. As soon as it was mentioned, I remembered that there is this ever so slight little rattle type noise. It's not consistant though. I may go a week without hearing it. Hey Aaron...thanks for the hook-up on the Intercooler by the way. I do appreciate it! :icon_bigg

    jdm shit motor

    This exact thing happened to me. They claimed 40k miles and drop in ready. Right! The first engine had been run on low oil and all the internals were toast from the top down. I sent it back, they agreed, and sent me a second one. The second one had a BHG on #6 and badly eroded water...

    Shimming the Waste Gate. Good or bad?

    Hey guys! I just installed my 57 Trim yesterday. Sweet!!!!! :biglaugh: My original CT was stock with the wastegate shimmed and after I pulled it off the car and removed the shims prior to storing it, I noticed that the spring seem a little weak/stretched. I'm not sure if that makes sense...

    ARP Head Stud Question.

    I am thinking of removing the stock head bolts (currently torqued to 70 lbs) one by one and replacing them with ARP Head Studs and torquing them to 90 lbs or so. The car has 117k with the original engine that has never been apart. (except for repairs that I've done) Head has never been off...

    I'm changing my timing belt and this is what I found. What does it indicate?

    Yeah, after reading everyone's suggestions, I think that's part of why the "starter" method didn't work. I didn't have any gap at all between the frame and the breaker bar. I was afraid to use the ground for fear of it lifting the car enough to allow for a whole revolution with the breaker bar...

    Alrighty then... Not sure what prompted all that; but, anyway... Hopefully it's all out of everyone's system. Sometimes we forget that this forum is a community for people of like interests to share tips, tricks, and friendly advice. :icon_bigg That being said, thank you to everyone for...

    I'm changing my timing belt and this is what I found. What does it indicate?

    Well, I am not by any means the strongest guy out there; but, certainly not the weekest either. Lack of strength isn't the issue. As already stated, the fact that the bolt has been on there for 21 years and been exposed to road grime, moisture, weather, and who knows what other foreign...
