Could not having the valve in there contribute to the head being dry? I pulled off the covers while I was re-adjusting timing and the cam Journals and gulleys were bone dry.:nono: I shimmed the pump when I put it in, and I also did the braided line upgrade. I put the magnet extension in as deep...

In the 7mgte fiter housing, is the spring and relief valve. I rebuilt my engine over the course of a year so some things came up missing. Now I don't ever REMEMBER removing this bolt spring and valve, but after starting it last week, It reads about 2/lbs of oil pressure!! I took the oil relief...

update, I shot it with a timing light after removing my fan and alternator belt, And #1cylinder isent firing until about 50* clockwise after the 0* mark. Something is messed up in my timing. Im going to tear off the covers and retime it tonight. More updates later!

I retimed the CPS, but did not adjust to the 10* yet. The only code that is flashing is 22. Which is a water temp sensor circuit. After retiming CPS I got it to start and run under its own power, but here is what it sounds like. Sounds like I have dead cylinders. Watch until the end of the...

So I am supposed to rotate the CPS back and forth WHILE the car is running? How am I suppose to see when the crank matches up to 10*? It will be spinning at 1000rpms.??? Also, how can I start my car before this ignition timing is completely set? I'm so confused.

yes stock ecu with the safc2 controller wired in. i will check codes tonight. Do my best to use jumper wire, never done it before

UPdate- 7/26/14 I shot it with a timing light after removing my fan and alternator belt, And #1cylinder isn't firing until about 50* clockwise after the 0* mark. Something is messed up in my timing. I'm going to tear off the covers and retime it tonight. More updates later! UPDATE:: Retimed CPS...

I am installing a wideband on the drivers pillar and do not know what wire to tap into for power, or what one to use for lighting/dimming, and ground. There are so many wires on the drivers side I dont want to mess anything up. and I cant read a wiring diagram from cygnus or anything, I just...

GUYS! JESUS CHRIST I DONT HAVE A "FROM HEATER" INLET ON THE INTAKE SIDE OF THE FRICKEN PIPE-can we concentrate on that?, THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME FIX THE RANDOM TUBE ON THE EXHAUST SIDE with a cap now lets move on....lol

Gotcha. So its the same on both RHD and LHD vehicles, so is it possible the one that others are saying to cap off is actually my "from heater" (inlet)? and then the center tube sticking straight up on the back of the block is the "to heater" (exit)? would it hurt anything if I hooked it up this...

That doesn't make sense to me. Why would they leave a hole and say "cap this one off"? Hmmm. Well my other problem is that, I don't have the inlet "from heater" on the intake side, which means I don't have an entry for the coolant. Also I'm running without a heatercore, so really I just need to...

My coolant hard lines dont match the cygnus diagram. I have four openings all near eachother where as the cygnus diagram shows one coming from the intake side of the block labeled "from heater" as well....I do not have that entry. Also ihave anexit on the exhaust side that is not pictured in the...

Hello, I recently bought a wastegate It looks much like this Wastegate My problem is that I do not know how that lower plate mounts. I dont know if the beveled edge Goes twords or away from the plunger on the wastegate. And then I do not know if the Metal gasket (which also has a beveled...

Lol I just wrote that thread! All was going smoothly until I came to this Turbo A signal. Thanks a lot, I wonder why Apexi doesn't explain what their "remarks" column is for.

Just a few questions, hopefully you can help, here is my VIN# JT2MA71L4K0109444 my VIN# says my car is an 89 however I do not know the manufacture date- the sticker is no longer there. On the Apexi wiring diagram there is an entry in the Supra category that has year 88.8 by itself and has...

The Diagram in Step 4 shows the "Turbo A Pressure signal". When looking at my ECU harness, I do not have a wire in that spot on the plug. It is an empty pin. There is no wire color mentioned nor wire labeled from the SAFC2 as "Turbo signal". ANSWER- That Turbo Pressure A Signal is for a...

I DO NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYONE BREAKING BURNING FRYING RUINING WIRES OR OTHER PARTS OF THEIR VEHICLE WHILE FOLLOWING THIS WRITE UP. PLEASE READ COMPLETELY BEFORE TRYING TO INSTALL. INSTALL AT YOUR OWN RISK So I have been Wiring up my Apexi SAFC2 for the past couple of days. All the...

i had a spun bearing, so i had them machine the crank put over sized bearings in, new stock rods and pistons with new rings, and then hone the cylinders. I turned just the block into them with everything on it. and Yes, they disassembled everyhthing, and put it all in one big bag. Which is the...

Ive got my 7mgte block back from the shop, and they didn't replace all the front and rear covers, and gears. I have no idea how this stuff goes back on. I have 2 gears, a spring, a cup of bolts and washers, a large front cover for the waterpump, a smaller cover, and then another...

im to lazy to document my build thread. But I pulled the engine of my supra the other day after it developed a knock. So today, i tore down the engine. I had a TON of metal shavings in the oil pan. I'm scrapping the turbo, the header, the power steering, and a few other things. Upgrading to a 63...
