    Bogging and Stuttering, Check Engine Light but no code?

    My starter went out so I changed it. I also checked the knock sensors while I was down there, cleaned my K&N filter, and checked the turbo fan. All was good or seemed good. I bolted everything back up and now it bogs and stutters. I got an engine check light but when I jump the terminals, it...

    Code 52 Plague

    I should have known and tested better but couldn't really get down to the knock sensors with the correct socket (I didn't have a deep 27mm) so I've been dealing with that dam Code 52 for about a year. I even did the rewire kit. The mechanic that did my head gasket replaced the ks' so I figured...

    To Machine or Not to Machine....pics inside...

    I bought this motor from a guy who bought it from Attarco. It was a rebuilt crate motor. Before he could do the swap, his son wrecked his Supra so he stored it with the intention of finding another shell. That did not happen so here I am with the motor. When the guy stored the motor, he failed...

    Question for those that have rolled their fenders.

    My front tires rub so I need to get my fenders rolled. I stopped by the shop to make an appointment and the guy noted that he can only roll the part between the two screws at the top. The problem these screws are mounted at a "tabbed" out area and are actually cutting into my tire tread...

    I've had this issue for some time now. Last month I found a really good article about going through your wiring to make sure the dimmer wires were done correctly with aftermarket deck. It even had pictures! Thought I saved it but I guess not and now I can't seem to find it. Post the link if...

    Tsrm

    Hey All, I have a good .pdf copy of the TSRM. It's for a 90 but you should be able to use it for all years of the MKIII. Put it on any mobile media and have it available whenever you need it. Enjoy! Click here

    CPS Alignment

    I took out my CPS to change the bypass hose that blew up and forgot to reference its position so now I have to realign everything. I'm going off Shaeff's timing article but my CPS doesn't seem to line up quite like the picture sample. I have the cam gears at 12 o clock and piston 1 is at TDC...

    Removing Head Bolts

    In the TSRM, it says to remove the head bolts in the order shown in "3 passes". What exactly does this mean? What torque do I stop at during each pass? Should I just check the current torque on each bolt and divide by 3? I took a snapshot of the section and attached it for review.

    Engine Wiring Harness

    Hi All, Need some help. I have a 90 Turbo AT. The stock wiring harness (82121-14720) is no longer available. The harness (82121-14721) is available but is for a 92-93.5 Turbo. Does anyone know if the 2nd part will work for my car?

    Hi All - It's the new guy (Finally Got Pics)
