    I spy - somthing red? NGK Iridium BKR6EIX-11 Plugs From My 1UZ=FE

    Hi all, I have been having a odd ball hesitation when driving, I have replaced both coils, put a very good ground on the igniters, and have always ran premium 92 or 93 octane fuel and still had it. On this engine I put the NGK Iridium BKR6EIX-11 plugs in the 1UZ, I just pulled them out tonight...

    1989 Turbo Auto - 1.37V at IGN Fuse, No ECU power, More details inside

    Hi all, I got a chance to work on my 89 turbo automatic car over the weekend. The goal was to see if the engine runs, and basically address whether its better to part out or attempt to fix. When I started working on it, the engine would crank but would not produce any spark/fuel and the EFI...

    After 14,000 Miles - 1UZ-FE W58 Swap Reflections

    <As requested info below pics> Hi all, for the last year I have been driving my 1987 Supra with the 1UZ-FE W58 swap. In that time I managed to put just over 14,000 miles on the swap, and had a few problems but more positive inspiring things than anything. I just wanted to give a reflection...

    A friend and I checked out a local yard today and wouldn't you know it, I found my most recent Supra that I sold last October. A guy came and bought it, on his way out he yelled back, "When were done with it, you won't recognize it!". Well, I did... Kinda sad in a way, the car had...

    Daemon Gauges - Got any info?

    Hi all, I just picked up a set of Daemon Gauges recently (60mm). I looked them up before I bought them and it seemed like a deal, but upon further investigation after the purchase I'm unable to locate the power boxes and sensors online. I have talked to a rep in China, but they have not got...

    Wiring the 1UZ-FE into a Pre-89 Supra

    Hi all, I thought I would put together a complete &#8220;guide&#8221; if you will for a Pre-89 1UZ-FE swapped Supra. This swap is gaining in popularity so I figured if we have a good platform to get wiring information it would help ease the process. First I will list the Supra connectors, then...

    ECU Location - Where does it go?

    Hi all, I have a 1UZ in my 87 Supra and since the 1UZ harness was designed to go down the fire wall to a panel under the carpet there is a lot of excess harness and its making it difficult finding a suitable location while still keeping the glove box usable. As of now I have the top panel...

    Found this in the Junk Yard

    Hi all, took a trip to a local pick and pull and found this "gem" I remember seeing a pic of a new 1989 Supra with the same stuff but it said "Rob's Supra". It also has the polished fender flares, if the stuff wasn't in so bad shape it would be a neat thing to grab, but I figured I would share...

    Hi all, I'm hearing some "popping" and other noises out of my passenger side parking brake when driving, its only talking back a little at a time but its got me worried. I do not drift/ romp on the parking brake, occasionally I will ease into it when coming to a stop in a parking lot, but...

    Lightweight Hood - Is It Worth It For A Daily Driver?

    Hi all, My 87 Supra is in need of a new hood, the one I have is a little rough. I was considering getting a carbon fiber or fiberglass hood for it but I do not know if its a good idea for a daily driven car. I have considered trying to fix the existing hood but that would require removal of...

    Rear Window Wiper - Having Trouble Removing.

    Hi all, the rear wiper in my car stopped working. I'm pretty sure the relay box on the motor is to blame, but I cant remove it without removing entire motor. The problem is that the wiper arm and the splined shaft it mounts to have rusted together. I have put a decent amount of pressure on...

    Constantly Popping The EFI 15A Fuse

    Hi all, I was heading home yesterday and out of no where the engine shut off. I thought it was the TPS or AFM, so I tried to start it, it cranked but didn't start. I pulled over and checked under the hood, the 15A fuse in the main fuse block was blown. I looked over the harness and there was...
