Re: The Legend Returns! I believe so, yes. BMW Z4 (or 5) and the Supra. I expect more differences between them than the 86/BRZ though. Heff

It would not be A1Cardone. Toyota's suppliers are the ones who do the remanufacturing (Aisin, Denso, etc.) for any Toyota parts that they do offer a reman on, this sometimes limits what parts have reman units available. When Toyota remanufactures a unit, they replace all wear components (whether...

Re: The Legend Returns! Pricing is key for this car I think. The MKIV ended up pricing itself out of the market back in the 90's, it would be a shame if they made the same mistake twice. I also think the collaborative effort on this car may turn off some Supra enthusiasts, but a good car is...

Re: The Legend Returns! As far as I understand, or have read, or believe, it will be a twin turbo inline-6, non-hybrid and RWD. The manual transmission is rumoured to be available in the BMW version (updated Z4), but that the Supra will only be getting an auto/paddle-shift. :( Still, as long...

At the 2018 Geneva Motor Show, a modern racing concept signals Toyota’s commitment to bring back to the market its most iconic sports car. Get the full scoop on March 6th at 3:45 a.m. (EST) http://pressroom.toyota.com/releases/the+legend+returns.htm Jeff

It's definitely possible, however as mentioned, you'd have to add the wiring to the passenger side door. Jeff

Gotcha, yes they are definitely not the same thing. :thumbup: Jeff

You can't really run a six-channel igniter sequentially with only 4 channels on the ECU, you could still run 6 individual coils, but they would need to be fired in wasted-spark batch fire mode. Without six channels, it just cannot be done. The important thing to note is that multiplexing isn't...

For what it's worth, the VVT-i 2JZ ran wasted spark (not sequential) ignition and the igniter from the 98+ GS/IS is only a 3-channel. If you are sticking with the factory 7M-GTE coils, this is a perfect non-multiplexed option, but if you want full sequential ignition, you'll need a 6-channel...

This is true, but not a reason the 2JZ wouldn't run on a 1JZ harness. It would just be running semi-sequential just like the 1JZ. Something to be aware of when setting up the ECU for sure though. All settings would need to be for a 1JZ, tuning would need to be done for the engine it is...

Welcome! Jeff

Multiplexing isn't supported by most aftermarket ECU's, it's not a common design. Most ECU's will send the trigger signal to each coil/ignition channel that they want to fire (be that in single coil, batch/wasted spark or sequential), however the way the 7M-GTE ignition system works is there is...

Yeah... haha. I actually may like having the parts more than I like using them... sometimes anyway. It's always a bit sad to use a part. Maybe that's just me, lol. Jeff

It's been a bit of a crazy year, meant to post some updates earlier, but didn't get a chance to. I did get the flywheel installed along with the new clutch disc. It feels fantastic, though I may still adjust it a bit, not sure yet. Much lighter makes for a more rev-happy experience, but it's...

Nothing I am aware of. DRL's started coming into play in 1990, however they were mandatory (only used in Canada at that time), by the time any vehicles started having "OFF" positions for them, the design Toyota was using had changed 2-3 times. Nothing direct fit for the A70, I don't think. Jeff

BMW M235i/M240i would most likely be my suggestion. Driven a few, almost bought one but decided to do the engine swap on my IS instead. Still consider it from time to time, but now that I'm a student again, I'm poor, so probably won't happen, haha. Jeff

Had a pretty cool '91 FJ80 for a while and did a bunch of work to it, ended up selling it to Stanzaspeed who then did a bit more before deciding to sell it to fund more Supra-friendly activities. Still, it was a great truck. I would very much like a SWB 70-series at some point in the future...

My goal is for the new forum to be much more content/media/photo-friendly, however as was stated, storage can be a concern for sure. As it stands, I don't think it would be too big of a deal for a while; at some point we may need to consider other hosting, but the forum isn't busy enough for...

Last time I was in Vegas was in '06. I'm probably overdue to head back. Perhaps 2018 is my year. Jeff

What is this magic? I haven't seen it in Canada yet. Next time I'm in the US I'll check it out. Jeff
