    Death of a diff

    It's been quite a while, but figured I'd post up the most recent carnage at the drag strip... https://youtu.be/0Kw9Gg0zwVA

    AEM Tuning shop

    Hey everyone. I'm about to go with a full AEM standalone setup in addition to my forged internal built block, 62-1 turbo, etc etc. I am looking for a trustworthy shop that can tune the AEM with the 7mgte. I'm located in Norman, OK, but I'm willing to tow it somewhere in neighboring states...

    mmmm tools - prepping for big boy build

    Hey guys, it's been a while since I've posted. Finally received my degree about a year ago and have been training out in the field for the past year. Now I'm coming home and am planning a huge re-rebuild of my 89. I already rebuilt the engine a few years ago with forged internals, 62-1 turbo...

    Another Rims thread (with criteria!)

    Hey guys. I have the engine built up, turbo that I want, and everything mechanically where is should be (aside from some very minor things). Now I am looking into getting some rims along with a nice paint job, possibly a front lip, and maybe a slight drop. I really don't know much about rims...

    Maft-pro and boost cut issues (logs/settings/mods included)

    I went out and spent about 1/3 a tank of gas tuning the supra tonight. I ironed out some of my boost control settings, but fuel cut is starting to rear its ugly head. I have a 10 psi spring in the wastegate, and boost control is set to hit 12 psi. Logs: This one has two boost cuts (I...

    Moving to Houston next summer

    I've lined up an internship for next summer in Houston. I'll only be there for 3 months or so and then I'll be coming back up to school in Norman. I'll be working in central downtown, anyone have any suggestions/warnings on any specific places to live? I've only been to Houston for TX2006, so...

    8 second XS Power MKIII

    I've never seen this video before, and I did a quick search (mostly build threads came up :P). Found it while browsing streetfire. http://videos.streetfire.net/video/8-Sec-XS-Power-Supra-run_177120.htm

    Pressure plate exploded, clutch options?

    Hey guys, it's been awhile since I've been on SM. Between the supra's pressure plate giving out, buying a tacoma, and interning 300 miles away from the supra for the summer, the supra has been put on the backburner. Now since it's well into summer, I'm starting to do some research about where...

    Mix-matching clutches?

    I had my SPEC stage 3 pressure plate's strapping bust on me recently. I checked it out today and I think my clutch disc is fine. Can I use something like the 520 ft/lb rated Southbend pressure plate with the SPEC 6 puck sprung disc (from a SPEC stage 3, 520 ft/lb rated clutch set)? It would...

    Don't try to save missed shifts!

    *cliffs at the end :P* Well a few weeks ago I went down to the drag strip because I had finally worked out all the problems and the maft-pro had been running fine for a few weeks prior. I made three passes, all of them were horrible. I blew apart the upper IC piping in the first two and the...

    Bitter sweet day

    Well today started out pretty decent; washed the supra on the way to get new rear tires installed. Got the tires mounted, turns out one of my rims is a little bent up (you can see an inner caliper move in a couple of spots) they said it wasn't too bad and just balanced the rim for me to where...

    Narrowed it down to these 5 tires...

    I'm in the market for a new set of rear tires only. They will be mounted on my mkIV TT rims (these tires are all sized at 275/40/17). Looking mainly for dry/summer performance since I don't drive much in the rain/snow. I do not auto cross, but I would be taking the supra to the drag strip...

    What vehicle to tow with?

    My supra has many mods that make it very fun, but not necessarily the most reliable daily driver (not due to breaking down, but due to me messing with it :P). I'm moving about 5 hours away for the summer for an internship and I absolutely do not want to leave the supra here. I have been...

    maft-pro Tap vs. Splice

    (EDIT: new wiring diagram showing exactly what to do is posted on post #9) Before I start off, I have searched and read through all the maft-pro archived threads that I can (a lot of the thread link listings are dead and don't work) and I am still seeing conflicts in wiring...

    MAFT-Pro plug and play connector...

    Hey all. I am just now getting around to installing my full maft-pro kit. I know that I am going to be wiring/soldering a ton. I was wanting to make my own plug-and-play harness connector that would allow me to revert back to stock if I ever wanted. Something that would do either one of two...

    ECU water temp sensor replacement wiring

    The wires to my ECU water temp sensor plug have snapped off from the plug. I have an old hacked up wiring harness, but the ECU water temp plug was missing on it. I found another 2 prong plug that I modified (broke the clip part of it off) to fit on the sensor. It actually worked out pretty...

    Very slugish, wont accelerate

    Cliffs: replaced shims, now car wont accelerate or even rev fast; no boost leak, no clogged IC/intake pipes, all wiring connected, no codes. Edit: mods include built engine, turbonetics 62-1, hard pipes, upgraded IC, BOV ... nothing else really pertinent. I just replaced some shims in the...

    Rear transmission mount bolts - help!

    I cannot remember/find out what size the bolts are that the rear engine mount (transmission mount) uses. There are four bolts that bolt to the transmission and four that bolt to the car. Are they 14mm heads or 12mm heads? Anyone know how long they are? Any help would be appreciated.

    Additional clutch help needed

    Hey guys, I know there are other threads about clutches (I have been reading them for days), but I need some more specific advice. First off, my power level is going to be around 350 hp for a few months until I get fuel/tuning mods, after which I should be running about 450+ hp to the wheels...
