Now that we've moved to a place with TV, we have to sit through commercials. There is one thing that really gets under my skin though. These commercials for crappy little econo boxes are advertising 40 miles to the gallon fuel economy like it is something to be proud of. To give a bit of a...

I just had a little question. How are factory ECU's programmed? Like pre-OBD and now? I was just thinking that for the most part, ECUs are made by a third party manufacturer (Denso, Bosch, Delco) and arrive at the factory already assembled. Are they programmed beforehand by the ECU manufacturer...

Hey, I know I've seen this before but I can't remember where I saw it. It was a replacement for the arrowed piece in the picture that held HKS stuff. Does anyone know what that is called or a picture of it. If anyone knows where to buy it (unlikely I assume), that would be awesome as well.

I had a question about reading compressor maps. I think I did this right but would like someone more knwledgeable on the subject help me out. This is a Boss Jr 60-1 turbo. I don't know if all 60-1 compressors are the same across the board; I just found this in google images and edited it in...

With all the talk about digital dashes and how everyone else in the world gets them but us in the States, this should hopefully turn out to be a good thread. A couple months ago, I, like many others before me, decided to attempt the project on my own. My goals with this were to find a way to...

Hey, I have a Boss Jr ball bearing turbo in 60-1 trim. Am I right in assuming that this is just an off the shelf Comp turbo with a ct26-style exhaust housing made by LIPP? If so, does anyone know what the part number for the turbo is? I'm just trying to get more info on what I have and what...

I have a quick question about the voltage on the speed sensor line. I am troubleshooting my cruise control problems and have come across a poorly installed (and removed) alarm system wiring job under the dash. Now, I get no indication of speed on the cruise control diagnostics. According to the...

Hey all, I'm trying to set this AEM 30-1130 up on my car for sequential injection. The thing is, I am finding a bit of a problem with conflicting data. This is the thread I used. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?140728-AEM-EMS-tuning-questions Anyway, how can I set this up? It...

Hey everyone, I am planning a Supra drive and cruise for sometime around late August-Mid September timeframe. I haven't nailed down an exact date yet because we are pretty flexible, so whatever Saturday works best for you. This would be an all day trip and would run from Pasco, WA to Portland...

Hey everyone. I haven't been an active member on here since the end of last year when I got my 87 turbo for free. Since then my experience with the Supra Community has been nothing short of amazing. Since I started driving 13 years ago, I have owned lots of different vehicles. I'll see if I can...

Hey, I have a 1987 Turbo and my cruise control has never worked. I press the button, light on the switch comes on, press the set switch...nothing. At first I thought it might be a switch problem, so I whipped out the factory service manual (a necessity for these cars) and went through the...

With the PACNW Supra meet being cancelled this year, I have the weekend free that normally would have been used to drive to Boise and back. I'm on Whidbey Island, so would anyone be interested in doing a drive along Highway 20 or something that weekend?

Hey, I just bought a first gen hks evc. Who all runs this? What are your thoughts on them? I hooked it up and even powered off, it buzzes once every 2 or 3 seconds. Is this normal? I hear that there are dip switches inside the control unit to select internal or external wastegate. Does anyone...

Hey everyone, I just acquired a digi dash and I'm trying to get the connectors for the back. I PM'd Dr. Tweak but he doesn't have those connectors. Does anyone know where I can source those? Also, to power the cluster up, I just need to apply 12v to pin 1 and GND to pin 9 of the 20 pin...

Hey, I just scored a used Greddy (or Trust, I don't know the difference) intercooler kit for a really good price a few days ago. The thing is, I have no idea about this kit at all. I have no documentation on it or anything. I tried google and everything. No one has a manual for it or anything...

Hey, I've looked all over and I can't seem to find a fix for this. I have an 87 supra with basic upgrades, like 550cc RC injectors, 60-1 ct26, AFPR. The regulator makes a really loud clicking noise though when the engine is running. I'm running the stock fuel pump and pulsation dampener, but no...

Hey everyone, is there a good machine shop around the north western part of Washington? I scored a shortblock for cheap and want to start getting the prep work done to build another motor.

Hey, I traded some parts I had for an AEM 30-1130 Standalone ecu for an 89-up 7mgte but my car and harness is a 1987 turbo. I would love to trade straight across for someone with a AEM 30-1110 for the 87-88 supra, but since that is unlikely to happen, I need to make an adapter to make it all...

I remember reading that the later 7m cranks and blocks were stronger, and I discovered that the engine in my 87 targa turbo has a later model engine in it. Now, how big is the difference in strength between the older ' weaker' blocks and cranks versus the newer reinforced and fully...

Hey, I'm going to skagit brewery tomorrow for lunch and was wondering if anyone would want to meet up. I'm gonna be there around 1100 or so and would like to meet some supra owners if possible. anyway, let me know. I'm sorry this is such late notice. I just found out that they do $10 growler...
