just a quick question. i searched but didn't come up with a definite answer. what's the max boost recommended for the stock ct26? i'm sure you can just crank it up, but at what level does it just make hot air?

i know i'm a little late with this thread, but i wasn't sure i was going to keep her. the car is a 90 turbo targa with the whiteout package. i stole the car 2 winters ago for $600, not knowing if it ran or not. i pushed her out of the garage in the spring and started putting it back...

long story short, i need help identifying some bearings. i bought a rebuilt shortblock last year, but it had issues. this past weekend i picked up a rebuilt complete motor, and it has problems too. :( the new motor needs standard sized rod and main bearings. my shortblock has brand new...

just so you know, i searched a few forums for the answers before posting. :) i'm getting my "new" engine ready to go in, and i'm trying to see what i can remove to make it a cleaner install when done. i see that driftmotion sells an "egr delete kit", but it only includes 2 blockoffs. from what...

well, i just had a guy ask me if i wanted to trade cars. i have a 90, with the white package and targa top. the car is VERY clean, and just needs some tlc and an engine rebuild. also, it's a manual swap and has about 116k on it. i haven't seen the other car yet, but here's some...

just looking for advice / tips here. i picked up a bullseye power turbo that's a direct fit. i plan on installing it, my lex afm, and 550 injectors. i currently have an intake, hard intercooler pipes/greddy bov, bic ddp,greddy profec b, and full 3" exhaust. 2 questions........ should...

i may be picking up a used but rebuilt engine for cheap. i was told that it was all redone, and has a mls headgasket and new pistons etc... the engine is out of the car right now, so what can i look for to judge the condition of it? thanks in advance for any help.

well, my car suddenly started going up to 14lbs of boost intermittently. i tried turning the boost down, but it didn't help. next i went back to the manual bc i had, and still nothing. i checked for leaks, and i checked the wastegate actuator. no problems found. i finally ran the vacuum line...

ok guys, i have a weird one for you. i've been dealing with a little bit of a rough idle and extended crank when starting that i think is due to the way i gapped my new plugs. first off, i installed ngk's that cross over to autolite 3922's. i know the stock gap is 32, but i was told to gap...

i've been over every thread i could find concerning fuel cut to try and figure it out. i understand that some cars have a higher threshold before hitting fc than others. my question is why? if in fact fuel cut is monitored by the afm, tps, and the ecu..... is it possible to replace any or all...

i know that everyone says not to use an fcd, and i understand why. at this point i plan on using it with a lot of tuning. i tried to use crisps instructiuons, but they were only good if i have an hks fcon. i found this after hours of looking and need to know if it's correct for a 1990 supta...

i'm sure this has been asked before, but i couldn't find it. will a faulty tps cause the car to hit fuel cut? from what i understand, the car measures the amount of air flow and the throttle position against preset limits. my tps is set at .5 volts closed, but won't go past 3.xx volts wide...

i'm not sure if i posted about this earlier, but i got rear ended in my supra a few weeks ago. i know there's bumper damage, but i had a question for you guys.... since the accident, the targa top leaks at the l/f corner and the power drivers seat has about an inch of back and forth play. can...

hey all. i'm finally replacing the shitty boost controller that came with the car for a greddy profec b spec ii. :) i'm sure i'll figure out how to adjust it at some point, lol, but i do have a question... i'm missing the small filter that goes on the vacuum line to the main unit. will i be ok...

i finally solved my boost leak issue, so now i'm on to the next thing. is there any advantage to havint the inlet and outlet on opposite sides on an intercooler? i've heard that there's better cooling with them on opposite sides, but i know that the piping is shorter the other way. on...

so i just spent the last 3 hours installing struts and springs on the supra. i got everything new.... springs, struts, mounts, and boot kits. half way home i hear a rattling sound from the back of the car...... looks like the main nut on the rear struts is loose????? i know i tightened them...

i don't know the price yet, but the local vision ford store has an 89 supra for sale. 29k original miles. very nice red color with gray interior. it's a non turbo, auto, hardtop. the car is in MINT shape. if i can find out the price i'll post it for you guys.

i'm hitting fuel cut randomly and had a couple questions. my mods are cone filter, bic ddp and full 3" exhaust. i have a cheapo boost controller set to 9 or 10 lbs. sometimes the car runs like a raped ape, and other times it hits fuel cut. the question is.......... can i hook up a fcd if i...

i'm in the market for some suspension upgrades and had a couple questions. i know this has probably been asked before, but i couldn't find any answers. first, i see a lot of people going with tokico's and lowering springs..... are the tokico's illumina's that much better than the blues or...

i thought i had the problem fixed when i sealed the wing and replaced the grommets on the hatch itself. this morning i found the spare tire area full of water, and it was dripping from the interior hatch cover. is there anywhere else that i might have missed? is it common to need the rear...
