What did you do to your supra today? Pics
- Thread starter boostinsupra
- Start date
Finally got my poopra back the front main, oil pump drive, and cam seals were replaced along with the timing belt now no more oil leak the crank has been worn down a little bit from the crank pulley wobbling slightly also wore down the woodruff key but that was replaced too it should be fine though. Car felt great but it also felt that the timing might be slightly off maybe I was just used to driving my brother's prelude I gotta get used to driving the poopra again. Damn clutch engagement is so high up I can't figure out how to lower it.
Rebuilding the ct26, finished cleaning up the housings but damn it's cold outside. Calling it for today. Got a call machine shops heat went out and he can't cut anything since the machines require room temp of 65F oh well

that is weird I figured machines would love the cold since there won't be any problem with overheating lol
Kinda finished rebuilding my ct26, come to find out the hot sides cracked by the wastegate valve. Can't believe I didn't see it after scrubbing for so long. Now I'm stuck with either getting a new housing or saying f it and look into a new turbo.

metals contract in cold and most measuring equipment is calibrated between 65-70 degree f. I use to have to re calibrate CNC machines as the sun would hit different size of the shop causing one side of the machine to get out of square.Doat;2029773 said:
Housings are a dime a dozen or you can get the cracks tig weldeddrogon;2030077 said:

I found that out rather quickly, I ended up doing that but now I can't get the hot side back on. The compressor housing went on like a glove. Should I heat up the hot side to get it in? I got the pins lined up

Just a preview of some of the goodies I have. Hopefully I have some time this weekend to install and give you guys a real update.
Let us know if you feel a difference with that Run UP additive. Are you gonna dump $100 of that additive in at once?
One is for the Supra. The other is for the daily. I've seen results first hand on the dyno, just going to try it out for myself.MarkIII4Me;2030394 said:

It might be, but they had it in stock. It even came in the right bag and had the right label. I say that because Chinese counterfeit is rampant outside the US.

Drive the Supra yesterday to make sure the new R154 was okie dokie. Everything checked out except I have a small leak somewhere (suspect speedo gear location?) it may also be slightly overfull and just pushed out a little trans lube. Is toyota redline MT fluid clear like engine oil?
I have a spot right below the shifter...
400 rwhp is a lot of power for a street car... Lol

Did you pony up for it yet? It looks much better than I was expecting. Like an original interior. But it also shows how bad the leather on my parking brake handle is. Among other things. Many interior things are discontinued, and worse, out of stock.

I probably will buy a new one if I go with the Illumina II's if they ever come back into stock... I wasn't expecting that switch to be $95, I was expecting like $400+.
