Glad to hear my stuff is finally showing up in Google searches. The project has its own web site as well at http://1uzsupra.com which had links to all of the photos, videos, and write-ups I have done plus links to other people's projects, vendors, and related forums.

Thanks for the advice Nick. I'd love to get the car out to SILV, just not sure I could get the time off needed to drive that distance and back and still enjoy the show. Maybe one day when I get rich I'll just have it trucked out ;)

That new avatar pic sure looks familiar...

Subscribed! Thanks for letting me know about the thread and glad to help answer any questions as they come up.

Many thanks to Jeff and everyone who helped make this event great. It was nice meeting more fellow Supra and SC owners, not to mention putting some faces/names to screennames/cars :) Made it back home after the four hour drive in one piece with only one near miss when a Monte Carlo decided to...

Dyno videos and dyno sheet from this weekend. Sorry, they were not set up for torque readings when they had me on the dyno. We had to specifically request this but they failed to inform us of this when we paid, they were more into doing speed/HP readings instead. Enjoy! First Run...

Saturday pictures! http://picasaweb.google.com/1uzsupra/Indy2k9Saturday?feat=directlink

Hopefully most of those registered will show! Would be a good group to represent at the show. So what is the current count on those doing dyno runs? I know we're one of them and we're really looking forward to getting some numbers on this 1UZ swap. I think I am running really rich too but no...

Sweet video. Every time I open my garage I have the 2001: Space Odyssey theme song playing in my head, lol. http://www.palantir.net/2001/tma1/midi/zarathustra.mid

Still working on getting the interior put back together and need to do an oil change. I won't have time to repair the exterior trim but those are only minor items. Hoping to find time to do a bit of detail work but I doubt I'll be able to get to this either with what my projected schedule is...

PM'd.

Hey, I'm still in the NA class :icon_razz I'll do it. Let me know if we need to prepay.

Looks like we'll be staying for both days now. Reserving a room at the Super8, 4033 East Southport Rd. Also if anyone wants any of the parts I have in my for sale thread, I'd be more than happy to haul them down seeing as how a few of them are a bit heavy to ship. Willing to let them go cheap...

Now that we're going to stay for both days, I am seriously considering putting the car on the dyno. I need to get a baseline before I make any other changes and this would give me paper on the 1UZ swap to boot. What are the official details now on this part of the event? When, where and how much?

Well, they were the best cars there ;) I should have moved the cooler, lol. Pic#4 is good, would be better if I had that scrape on my bumper fixed. We're seriously thinking of canceling going to the other event we had planned on May 10 and staying in Indy for the 2 days instead. Twelve hours...

Pictures from the GVSU Spring Car Show 2009 that PCguylovesSupra and I attended Saturday. Great weather and excellent turnout although we could have used a few more Supras there. http://picasaweb.google.com/1uzsupra/GVSUCarShow2009?feat=directlink Also had fun with a Silvia on the way to the...

Problem fixed! Main failure was one of the ignition coils but several other items needed to be replaced as well due to age, corrosion, and literally turning to powder in my hands (one spark plug wire did this).

Problem fixed, we're back on for the shows this year! Looking forward to seeing everyone at Indy and Chi.

Good news! After swapping out both distributor caps and rotors, plus replacing both ignition coils, the car is running even better than it was before this problem appeared one week ago. Not a minute too late either as there is a car show at GVSU tomorrow (4/18) which I had preregistered to attend.

Further test results reveal that it may be a faulty ignition coil. I measured the resistance of both ignition coils as well as the two cam sensors and the crank sensor. Here are the results: Passenger side = LH Driver side = RH LH Coil primary - 0.5 LH Coil secondary - 11.90k RH Coil primary...
