    MSD digital + adapters issue...

    I have just wired an MSD Digital 6215 box using two MSD adapters 8912. '87T ignition is stock and the MSD was wired and used in another 7M application so it *should be* good. When I use the bypass plug, the car runs great. When I use the MSD box, it runs like it has a serious misfire - I...

    Arrrgh - #$%&!@*^% tranny.

    Lost the damn tranny this morning in the Supra. :icon_mad: I can shift into first gear with the clutch out, but when you engeage the clutch, it kicks the shifter out. If you hold the shifter, it grinds and forces the shifter out. I literally did nothing to hurt first gear. I've been doing...

    -Rich's rebuild

    I don't usually hang out at forums too much but I felt like tossing up a rebuild thread because of all the help I got and am still getting from this forum. Not just searching for info, but from Jeff Tamulis who has sourced parts for me and to jetjock for the AC info. So I started from...
