    SP61 boost issues

    I think the wastegate is staying open . SP staff told me I might need to add preload to the spring. I added about 1/4" of preload on the actuator rod but still only boost to 4psi base boost running on the wastegate spring. SP told me I should add more preload to bring my base boost to 10 psi...

    SP61 boost issues

    The stutter problem was a bad Maf sensor but that's fixed. The boost issues is not fixed yet. On the dyno even when the boost controller set at 1.3 bars (18.8) psi , I don't get more than 12 psi. It spikes to 16 by 3800 rpm but then goes to 12 as the rpm's increase. I dropped the downpipe...

    Doesn't start after 3 month of sitting

    I worked on the car this weekend. The car cranked and backfired. But still no codes. I knew this symptom was from a Cps problem I had before. I disonnected the cps and got code 12. Reconnected it and it started . I guess the plug-socket connection must have been bad. I am so happy I got it...

    RazoE and 1J you are right. I will rule out the fuel since it has started before sitting this long. I will try to see if I have spark and let you know.

I decided to mount an oil filter relocation kit and a sandwitch plate in order to install oil pressure and temperature sensors. I...

    Max width tires to fit these rims

    That blue is my favorite color. It's unique. I like these rims they are light and very strong. I am using the stock lugnuts. Here another supra member is using 17x9 Impul rims with 20ET he used 255-40-17 tires on his old setup using these rims...

    No they are not photoshopped. They are real. I didnt get the 17x10.5 +27offsets figured they would be too wide and stick out too far the f. I got four 17x9's maybe it was the wrong choice. the 275 fit fine on these 17x9... I test fitted the fronts and they stick out slighlty but I may get...

    [ yes you are correct. Here is a test fit for the rear using Nitto drag radials 275-40-17 17x9 +25 offset. I still have not installed the front. They are the original GT's with 17x8 +38 http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x80/kebr0001/DSC03288.jpg...

    IMO 17x10.5 with a 20 + ET is tough to fit on the supra. I am guessing it will stick out and look absurd.

    Really? what is your rear wheel offset. I am just worried with those wheels it might stick out too much. I know the 17x9 s fit for sure. I dont mind rolling the fenders alittle bit. I also was planning to put 275 40 17 on those wheels.

    Max width tires to fit these rims

    I 've been looking at some MK4 TT wheels and I know they fit the MK3 supra but I think these wheels look better. The only concern I have is the center cap size. I think they should since they have the same bolt pattern right but the offset is 25 and the center cap size is 2.5"...

    Max width tires to fit these rims

    Hello guys. I was wondering if anyone knows for sure what is the maximum tire width I can fit on these rims. They are 17 inch mustang GT wheels. I am not sure if they are 17X8 or 17X9. They are very good wheels and are light weight. Currently they have 245-40-17 tires mounted. I would like...
