It was quite cool to see the flame machine from you sig and that SC300 was awesome :) I definitely enjoyed the train of Supras we had going at the end! The auto had been engaging and disengaging pretty hard throughout the day so I pulled out the TSRM and fine tuned the throttle position...

Heck no, it caused a Portal reference! Drove my car on the Whidbey drive on Sunday and met Pyro15D and suprasick as well as seeing honestabe and Ben again. Good times and drives! Had to resolve some issues with the auto upon returning home but I think I am just about ready for the Red Door.

I have seen and heard honestabe's Supra and I cannot imagine how he could have fun in a Yaris :P

I have been away for about a week...but does this mean you are back in a Supra?!?

Excellent!

Why is everyone giving up on the Supras????

My oil leak seems to have been fixed with the FIPG after all :) Guess it was just residual oil that dripped off, or the metal slowly crushed into the FIPG. Oh reverse lights...why you no work? (This scares me as the only answer seems to be damage to the wiring harness...still need to diagnose.)...

Wouldn't that be sweet! If I were rich I would have a very large heated garage with multiple lifts, a full set of Supra and MR2 SSTs, and a 3D printer of similar quality to what Red Bull Racing uses.

That is a fine stack of 20s you have. I am jealous! Replaced my TPS tonight. Here is a pic of the new and old. Left is superceded PN 89452-20050, right is likely 20 year old original PN 89452-28030. The old one was gummed up or something, so it would take around 30 minutes to...

Waiting as well, on parts :( But now that I have a better source than Champion my parts are cheaper and faster :) 3 things to fix and I can come to a meet. Oh, and Pryo, which soft line kit did you get for the turbo oil? SupraSport, Driftmotion, or RabidChimp?

Having a problem with my TPS reports... 8 different bosses came and told me to look at this thread: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?46793-Code-51 Diagnosed the TPS as faulty, here's hoping the new one arrives by Saturday!

Fix it good Bird! My problem was the oil return line indeed. Probably the same trouble Pyro was having, I could see that only the top half of the lower gasket was crushing. At least it was low pressure oil leaking out :) Tried making adjustments and coated things with FIPG, so now the leak is...

Yeah, 9 seemed right to me based on the stud size. Was kind of hoping maybe it was 25 and my leak is the result of way too low of torque. Looks like the turbo is coming off again :( Thanks for the response!

That sucks! My knees were killing me just from standing on the concrete when I put all my manifolds and turbo back on last weekend. Hope you feel better, maybe some other TN members can come help?

Speaking of looking good, you and Silver MK3 have some nice looking Supras! Love the undamaged front lips. That is my next goal.

Nice head, I got my intake pieces that clean (cheated and paid a pro, totally worth it!), but the head is not gleaming like yours! Here is the way the intake looked, I was amazed! The insides were covered in what I had assumed to be 20 years of oil, but no more!

I finally got the Supra back together but discovered an oil leak from the turbo oil return pipe at the block. I started reading through the TSRM tonight to prepare for replacing the gasket on this pipe again this weekend and noticed something odd. On page TC-9 they show the torque for...

How was the install on that? I am really interested in their product. (Cygnus website liked it!) Also did you get the metal or ceramic matrix version?

Silly me, I always forget the SC300. Very cool! Hmm, had what seemed like 20-30 minutes of white exhaust. It smelled bad at first like burning but not coolant, then became odorless. It was starting to get cold out, so I am not sure if that made the exhaust appear to have color later on. I...

Nice, is that an IS300 Pryo? Looking sharp! Thanks for the support Faye and Pryo! I really wish you guys were not so far away indeed. I can follow the TSRM, but some things just come with experience that I don't have. (For example, I could not get the timing light to show me anything at all...)...
