    Supra Boost Leak Help

    I've already removed the stock BPV and can't blow through it.... also used my dads compressor lightly to see if any air will blow through and nope. Seems OK. What's the best way to do the leak test? I'm searching through some threads here...

    Splattering/Missing under load >10 vacuum

    Hi Guys, Had a week off on Holiday and then had the car booked at my local Mechanic, and the problem of splattering/missing under load was due to the spark plugs failing... gap was larger than spec and the leads were also shot. FYI for anyone else experiences what appears like power...

    Splattering/Missing under load >10 vacuum

    Driven the car with the ECU Temp Sensor unplugged and it drove the same as far as the splattering/missing. What I then tried out is lower the mbc from 13psi to factory psi levels and the car seemed to run slightly better. I took out the MBC and then the car would drive fine to 6psi but...

    Splattering/Missing under load >10 vacuum

    Thanks JDub, I've so far read the vacuum gauge radings guide and also checked for codes. ECU only reported code 51 - switch signal which has troubled area's as tps circuit or tps, ecu or a/c. Don't know how that relates to my problem? I'll drive it tomorrow without the ECU temp sensor and...

    Splattering/Missing under load >10 vacuum

    Hi Guys, Did some research but it seems to be a maze of possibilities from what I've gathered so far as to what may be going wrong here. My car has been running perfectly fine with no mods done to it in the last year other than a full service (all bets + filters) in the last year. What is...

    Annoying Window Rattle

    Oh darn, that's not the answer I was expecting! lol... Mine's got a wobbly half way but not 3/4 or 1/4 height. I"ll probably look into it one day too when I feel like taking apart the door trim :)

    Progressing Power Steering Stopped Working After Oil Change?

    Thanks guys for making me look for a connector, I found the culprit and I was surprised it stayed on as long as it did. The plug wasn't connected and it amazed me how much downward pressure the bottom end of the plug had. I reconfigured the wiring a little to make it easier to connect and...

    Progressing Power Steering Stopped Working After Oil Change?

    Thanks Ian, just trying to rule out as much as I can to try and diagnose this a little better. I"ll be going under the car shortly and I'll check to ensure the PPS is still all plugged in properly. Probably another jack up then release will fix it! :sarcasm: haha.. you could only dream.

    Progressing Power Steering Stopped Working After Oil Change?

    Sorry guys, by reds I meant when you turn the key all the way to the "ON" position just after accessories, but not to start it. So all electrics are on, dash is lit up which isn't apparently good for a car if it's for a prolonged period? That's all I did wrongly I thought throughout my...

    Progressing Power Steering Stopped Working After Oil Change?

    I'll check for the wire when I get home in an hour or so. I used Dexron III ATF fluid for the steeing yep. :) When I did the reservoir clean-up I had a syringe that I sucked out most of the fluid with to start, and then took both vacuum lines off so I could get the reservoir out to clean it...

    Progressing Power Steering Stopped Working After Oil Change?

    Hi All, I have a pretty interesting scenario as my car had fully functioning PPS (albeit it sometimes felt a little vague, but was none the less power steering) until my last oil+filter change which I did three days ago. I accidentally did the mistake of leaving the reds on for about 30...

    Twin (Y) Muffler Options for MK3

    Hi Guys, Just want to know which exhausts people rate as being of good quality with a decent price for a twin tip muffler, and where I can look to buy this from? I had a look slight look around and the X-Force muffler won't fit under our cars apparently... but the Magnaflow will. Guess...

    What supporting mods are required for Upgraded CT-26 @ 12-14psi + FCD

    Thanks Suprahero and GTSFireFighter, reading both of those CKAnderson recommends about 12psi on Stage 2 which is before Fuel Pump and FPR. See what I was planning on doing is testing at anything above 10psi on the Dyno to ensure AFR's are in check. I know at 10psi they're in line with what...

    What supporting mods are required for Upgraded CT-26 @ 12-14psi + FCD

    LOL... I've had it that way for over 3 years at 10psi. So far no fail on 20+year old part??? But in regards to the FCD I'll still need to ensure that's definitely there as i've only been told that it's there, but the car hasn't hit fuel cut even when tuning my old HKS EVC IV when it does its...
