Alrighty I've been trying to sell my car and get into something a little more race friendly. It's not going well, banks don't enjoy loaning more than $100 for a 20 year old Toyota. Before I do something stupid and sell my supra for half of what its worth, I'd like to know if it could...

Some of the Bham supra guys from SF are meeting on Sunday. I have no clue how many people will be there or if we have anything planned. Come on out if your around.

... ERRR I mean get sucked I had some major WOT problems a few months back, and just found this picture on my camera. The engine kept choking out and dieing over 2800RPMS. I logged with my wideband, spent an hour or so checking hoses and boost leak testing. Then my roomate pointed out...

This usually goes to MMP, but I guess its coming to Steele as well this year. Anyone plan on going? I went a couple years ago and it is mostly civics, but other than that it may be a good time. We may can get a mini-meet or something. I may drag even though I know some bham guys that are...

Just spent a couple days swapping to N/A valve covers, trying to make the bay a little cleaner. Here's a couple pics in case anyone is interested. When I get some more cash I will use tookwik's coil system for sure, but this was kind of fun. Any questions?

Since my car makes good power now its time to focus on other things. I have been converting my interior to a single color, cleaning up paint, and cleaning up the engine bay. Kind of embarassing telling people about my 360hp supra and watching their face when they see my nasty engine bay :<...

I am sick of going to dyno everytime I need to re-tune. For the cost of a few visits I could buy my own wideband and learn to tune myself. I know most of the widebands have extra data-logging inputs so I can track other things. It seems to do any non-real time tuning I'd need to know my RPM...

Preface: -The following is a good guide on how to remove the oil pan with the engine in the car. Many of us do not have the equipment to "pull the engine" for every problem. With this you can re-seal the oil pan, change the oil pump or attempt some bottom end work. -I successfully cured...

My car was planned to be themed black/blue/white. I just got rid of my white wheels, and not much else is white. My engine bay looks like ass and its time to start cleaning/painting crap. I'd like to see some engine bays on black/dark blue cars only. I"m trying to get an idea of what I like...

Well I had a low tapping noise, and I assumed it was rodknock so I'm looking at the bottom end to check my clearances and whatnot. I want to see if it's fixable or if I might as well get a new engine. I've never done this before, so I need a little help. I have been taking pictures of everything...

*Note I copied this from a post I made on a local car board. I realize there are real Australians and Europeans here. If you have any comments or want to elaborate on things I may have got wrong, feel free. Thanks. I just got back from a month of backpacking through east-coast Australia. I...

Well I have a spare engine to build up but it won't be done for a long time. I'm slowly gathering parts as my budget allows. In the meantime I'd like to not drive around a supra with rodknock. This is not my permanent solution, and its not a daily driver so please don't tell me how cheap I am...

I feel like such an idiot that I had to post this story :D I don't expect any sympathy, you play you pay. I just put a new spec stg 3 clutch in last week. I've been driving like a grandmother everywhere I go for the break in period. I was hanging out with some buddies of mine I hadn't seen in...

Long story short my current pcv setup may be the cause of lots of oil leaks. I am currently running 15psi. If I set the pcv system back to stock will this pressurize my crankcase even more, or will it flow as intended. Thanks alot.

I'm hitting fuel cut at my wastegate's lowest setting, so off to the dyno to get tuned. I'm not running 550s, just an upgraded fuel pump and AFPR to bump up my pressure. I just don't want to run lean on the way to the dyno. I read somewhere that if I don't WOT then the ECU will steal read off...

He's into photography, so here's a chance for my halfway done project car to not look like a bucket. hmmm you can almost see the engine.... heres some examples of my own photographic skill :< Now I just need to get some pictures of my shortblock buildup.

My filler plug is about to strip out, and I don't have a new one to replace it. I'd hit it with a torch but it's so close to the gas tank :D. Before I totally destroy it, I thought of an idea. Can I just fill the differential oil through the driveshaft shaft side as long as I get my 1.3 qts in...

After requesting a quote for my 88 turbo that will not be daily driven: "Thank you for your Internet request. In order to process your request, I will need some additional information. Please provide the following information for each customization. 1. Type of customization: 2...

Can't find the right one anywhere, and the TSRMs aren't the same as mine. If anyone has a diagram for the fusebox under the kick panel I'd appreciate it. Its 88 turbo 5spd, has tems and abs. thanks alot.
