So after getting my car back from a performance shop I noticed it was pluming white smoke out the exhaust, upon removing the downpipe I found oil sitting in the exhaust housing. :3d_frown: The turbo is a Garrett T04R and probably has less than 1k miles on it, it was installed professionally with...

Whats going on guys, well after 4 years of my car sitting in my driveway it's back on the road and as bad ass as ever! My only issue is that upon getting it back from the performance shop it's been puffing white smoke at idle, smells like oil and I'm wondering why. It was brand new oil from the...

Hey everyone I am about to have my coil packs mounted on the firewall, for those who have done so already I ask you which plug wires did you use? And where to get them? Kinda need them asap to finish up the car! Thanks... Edit: I realize the title and question is very direct, I'm just trying to...

As the title states I'm looking for a trustworthy shop to work on my supra, one experienced working with the 7m and is located within the PA berks county area. If anyone knows of any please feel free to list them..Thank you!

Hello all, For those who have not read my last thread stating my starting and fuel problems let me get started by just saying that my car will run if I jump both the fuel pump and starter. But refuses to crank via the key/ignition. So after believing it could possibly be a blown ecu I...

Whats going on guys, I'm trying to bring my car back to life and I'm running into a few difficulties, namely getting it started. The car sat for 3 years in my driveway and after swapping in an FFIM and trying to start the engine to make sure its running I got nothing. No clicks, nothing. I...

So I'm thinking about scrapping my daily driver dsm and buying an sc300. I will most likely go NA-T with it and I'm looking for ideas for a smooth turbo setup. Something that will need little tweaking and be relatively reliable. I passed up a deal to do this in the past and I'm not letting it go...

I've never put pics up of my setup or car before so I thought I'd throw a couple up for the hell of it. Engine pic is blurry because my parents took my good camera on a trip with them!!:3d_frown: Enjoyyyyyy About 4 months after I bought the car, and about 3k in money I dumped in right off the...

I bought a new exhaust manifold (second one), and I need some longer studs for the t4 flange, because we all know you need damn spacers in order to run the thing without your comp housing hitting the damn runners..haha Now I bought my last studs from atp turbo, but they are pretty short and...

I'm slapping my Volks on come summer and I'm hoping to run some decent size tires in the rear, they are +40 offset all the way around. 17x8.5 front/17x10 rear, how wide of a tire could I slap on there without rubbing? Thanks everyone...

I've been running one of those nifty ebay HKS 40mm knock-offs. Well it has a 15psi spring in it, and it creeps every now and then. Well the other day it creeped to about 20psi, which scared the crap out of me since I wasn't tuned for that pressure level. Well anyways, my question is if I can...

For those of you that are currently using and/or have used water/methanol injection on the 7m, I'd like to ask your opinion on the effectiveness of the system. Would you recommend it? If so are you running the sprayer off a pressure switch, and at what psi are you spraying? I make about 400whp...

I had a stainless steel line recirculating the coolant but its kind of big and the top fitting stripped out of the housing. So I was wondering if anyone blocked off the ports? Used a different recirculation method? Thanks all

So I went to re-calibrate my tps sensor with the help of a friend and a nifty snap-on voltmeter. And after a while of trying to re-calibrate the sensor I plugged it in and went for a drive. In first gear I almost get to about 2000rpms then the engine cuts power, I dont mean it shuts off, it just...

Well, I just wanted to ask if anyone who is using the old MAF-T is using the GM MAF in blow-through mode or any other way. The reason I ask is my A/F ratios get pretty crazy at initial start-up, such as off the charts lean. Then after the car warms up a bit they go pretty rich at idle, 12's...

Does ARP make exhaust studs for our manifolds? I believe its a 14mm stud, Im just in need of locating some because my car as a nasty exhaust leak at the manifold and three of the nuts were loose, and one stud just pulled right the hell out..lol...Thanks all..

Ok, I just replaced a cracked valve cover with some nice painted ones I bought from GotToyota (thanks :icon_bigg ), after I finished the install I replaced the coilpacks, plugged them in, grounded them. And went to start my car and got a big clunk. Sounding as if the starter engages but no...

Sup everyone, has there been a company out there that has put out any manifolds where the t4 flange is angled, similar to most 1j manifolds? This is for the 7m as you may already have assumed. Reason I ask is for clearance reasons, my T04r and ebay manifold are quite a tight fit. And from what...

That combo doesnt work does it, because I've obviously tried it with no success. Any ideas? Thanks everyone C-

I've been searching for a 4inch pipe for my turbo, I've seen plenty of custom jobs but I'm kind of lazy and looking for a nice looking polished pre-fabbed pipe. I've checked a couple of the normal online stores, I also tried atp to see if they have anything, but no luck. Any ideas? Thanks...
