    What's my current hp.. Educated guess

    If it's stock boost, you're not going to be making much more power than stock.

    Airbag conversion problems

    Because it's brand new, rare, discontinued, and it was nearly that expensive new anyway.

    What's my current hp.. Educated guess

    No mention of what boost pressure you're running so there's nothing to go on.

    alright time to debate

    Cast manifold is simply more durable (generally), torque is based off turbo selection (how fast it spools) and response is crap on a turbo car and always will be :rofl:

    code 51. stalls when pressing on gas pedal.

    It's possible the TPS is bad, the wiring is FUBAR, or it's adjusted wrong. AFM won't solve your issue (the HKS suite are simply piggybacks and calculates a signal to send to the ECU that mimics the AFM signal)

    Steering Rack replacement questions?

    All Supras have power steering. Nope, the PPS racks are very different. Have to swap the solenoid I think. Just said it wasn't leaking? Why is it "bad?"

    Heater fan failure

    From what I can remember, yes, it's easy to get to. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291420/catalog.aspx?F=8712&P=1 kinda explains it.

    I may be THE FIRST.... Nah, I can't be...

    The #1 reason to run a 1.5JZ (1JZ head, 2JZ block) is wiring into the MKIII.

    headlight question please help :)

    If you do this, get true projectors, not the crap $14 "projector" housings and an H4 HID kit. The glare is crazy.

    headlight question please help :)

    LED's are fine, but it looks like he's trying to use them for main lighting. Fog lights don't have the required beam format or height to be used as the headlights. He might THINK it's good because he has massive amounts of foreground light, but anything over 15mph and he's outdriving his lights...

    Interested in Reloading

    The same is true for most reloading. It's never a huge savings, it's just enough savings that it allows you to shoot more often for the same price. If you're not shooting a lot, it's not worth it at all.

    red hot turbo.

    If it's oil cooled only, use a turbo timer. Could also be the tune, but I assume you would have noticed it running lean on your wideband.

    Airbag conversion problems

    OK, I'll be kind. Factory MKIII airbag is a first generation one, and the one you have is a later SRS airbag. The systems are very different, and early airbags SUCK (have fun getting hurt)

    Anyone know about steering rack updates?

    Water pump seized, destroyed alternator belt

    Running only water? They usually make noise for some time before failing, so something is weird...

    Supra interior

    Flocked, alcantara, suede, it's all done to eliminate glared off the dashboard. Not a bad thing to do, and it's proven to work (look at any serious race cars and you'll see it done) Only bad side to it is cleaning it and making it last (as the sun will eat it)

    oil in intercooler pipes?

    Yeah, you're more likely to push into a coolant passage than an oil passage. So by the time you have a BHG so bad to get to an oil passage, you're likely mixing oil and coolant...
