    Smaller hole than Wastegate Valve? Consequences?

    What turbo will you be running and how much boost do you plan to push?

    Let's see your setup

    All period correct, except for maybe the subs. I do have a set of UK KEF Kar120B's, but can't bring myself to using them yet since they are still NOS. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?111575-How-to-cram-a-6.5-quot-with-cast-basket-into-your-door-*Pics*&highlight=orion+hcca

    Help me troubleshoot 3 ABS Codes

    I have never heard said "hiss". Not even when pulling the check connector.

    Help me troubleshoot 3 ABS Codes

    This is what I had planned to do next. I read that same thing in the TSRM, that is what's so perplexing here. The check connector looks to be in perfect condition. I only go into diag mode when the engine is running if the tires are not moving. Weird.

    Help me troubleshoot 3 ABS Codes

    That's the weird thing, the "check" connector is plugged into the actuator, but acts like it isn't when the wheels are not in motion. Standing still at a stop, the ABS light will blink codes, once moving it goes solid again. There are two wires coming off the connector. The ground wire is...

    Help me troubleshoot 3 ABS Codes

    ^ Why would this be happening? I checked grounds and they are all good. And I am getting ground to the ABS module as well. Pump Motor Relay is testing good, so I'm fairly certain the two front speed sensors are fine too. There's got to be a specific issue causing all 3 codes. Where do I go to...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    ^ This is the HPF Turbonetics 62-1 HiFi with Stage 5 Turbine and 4" inlet on cover. I previously had a SupraSport 60-1 Stage 3 with 3" inlet (what all SS turbo's had). SS had the Turbonetics hotside copied and cast down in Mexico. Had the same (if not worse) jamming waste-gate flapper issue...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Indeed. :) Well, technically it's more 7M than JZ. Only 1/3 of the upper plenum and the TB are from a 1JZ. The lower plenum portion and upper and lower runners are 7M, the rest is just aluminum plate. I tried to make it look as factory as possible as well as increase the volume. Fitment is...

    Volt meter in boost spot

    I did this mod a few years ago on a 90T and used the jumper wire. It seems to work just fine except that the gauge jumps from 12-13, back and forth, when the turn signals are on. Does not fluctuate otherwise. I've taken voltage readings at the battery with and without the flashers on and there's...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Finally started putting my rebuilt hifi turbo back on. Turbo Lab did a great job on the wastegate flapper mod. I can't wait to try it out. I decided to try and fill the .5mm gap between the hot side and the ddp by gluing hi-temp gasket material to the mating points. I used 2000F exhaust putty...

    Hagerty Value guide

    From what I've seen actually sell, non-turbo engine and automatic transmission greatly diminish these vehicle's value. For the estimates given above, that car would have to be mint. Maybe these go for more in Canada. I don't know.

    Hagerty Value guide

    $2500-$3000 would be my guess.

    R154 shifter is it still good to use

    That sorta looks like the cheapie made in China ebay short shifter to me. Although I've never seen one retain it's chrome long enough to wear out like that.

    Hagerty Value guide

    Either young kids bought them up and beat them up or they just sat and rusted away. Either way, nicer examples are become more and more scare and the ones that are out there are usually owned by their original restorers/builders who have too much pride in their work to let them go for next to...

    Anyone using a soild copper gasket between their turbo to oil return flange?

    Ebay seller just sent me these instructions. Seems like a hassle to me to anneal before use. Plus I don't like the idea of having to coat it in copper spray or RTV as that kind of defeats the purpose. I didn't want any to block the oil return opening when torqued down...

    Anyone using a soild copper gasket between their turbo to oil return flange?

    OOh, I like that flange with the gasket, however, it appears to taper into a very tiny looking drain opening. What is that, -8AN maybe? It doesn't look much bigger than the bolt holes. Also, how does the flange shield the oring from the heat when the oring is pressed up against the bottom of the...

    Anyone using a soild copper gasket between their turbo to oil return flange?

    I originally ordered a Turbonetics gasket from JEGS. http://www.jegs.com/i/Turbonetics/880/30141/10002/-1 What I received was a very pliable smooth black rubber gasket that severely deforms when torqueing it down, to the point where it actually blocks the edges of the oil flow passage of the...

    Upgrading Turbo needing help deciding on the best route

    I'd avoid purchasing a used turbo at all costs. I've purchased several "low mileage no shaft play" units off of the forums and I've had to have each one rebuilt in under 2k miles. I'm getting my Turbonetics Hifi back from rebuild. Was blowing smoke on decel from the moment I installed it. Turns...
