    WI Supra owners.

    Im ready for this meet!! I've gotta replace my bearings first! :( I had just built the motor 4 months ago, but my oil pressure line was leaking for a while and I ran it low on oil once after I was out on HWY. :$ And the PO blocked off the line from the oil filter elbow that goes to the oil...

    Rod knock Qs

    Well I would NEVER use bearings from one engine and put them in another even if they "look" good. Just get new bearings or use the N/A block if you don't want to do the work. Check to make sure the crank journal is fine with a mic or take it in to get it checked. Make sure you mark which...

    last time my supra idled at 2k rpm my TPS was out of wac. happened twice. I just readjusted it as per TSRM and it fixed it. thats what im betting. check out the resistances with a volt meter.

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Lol results were that it was indeed fixed. Oil pressure stayed at about 36 and was climbing to 40. But an oil line popped off spilling 3+ quarts of oil on the ground. Right as I looked under my car and saw what was happening, I turned my car off and saw that the oil pressure at 2k rpm (cold...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Ok so I changed the oil and filter... And I gave it a little in 2nd and the oil pressure stayed at about 37 psi and was climbing a little bit. So I think I fixed it!! I'll let you guys know how the pressure is when I drive it more. So it coulda just been a clogged oil filter then?? My oil...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    this is how my setup is. Its the best pics i could get. There is no room to switch it to the NA fitting and delete the elbow. The way this XS Power manifold is, the sandwich plate wouldnt clear it or even the oil filter if i got the sandwich plate on. So im just going to try the oil change...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    So I absolutely need to get rid of the elbow? It doesn't look like I will be able to get it to fit with how my manifold sits there. Why do I need to get rid of it? Could I just shim the oil cooler relief valve so that is pretty much can't open? So it's just using the filter and the sandwich...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Well I put about 5 in on a refill. But I always check my dipstick and make sure it's above the full line. I pretty much get the whole oil reader thing in oil. So I'd say prolly 6 total. So that port for the oil cooler line isn't needed if I already have my cooler lines on the sandwich plate...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Haha I was wondering why you were giving me all those specs that I've never heard of!! Lol Well I'll be changing the filter tonight and see if that dies anything. I wish I knew if this just started or has been the whole time, but I was busy watchin my boost, AFR, RPMs and the road to see what...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Ok well I don't think were talking about the same thing then. Cause I dnt think there are any coolant lines going to my "extension housing". And the sandwich playe just allows for extra lines to be used I think. My filter is in the same place, just spaced with the sandwhich plate. Maybe i was...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    If the extension housing is the part that connects to the block that the filter screws onto, then yes. Why would that be it??

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    And I have both ports/lines from the sandwich plate going to my oil cooler. Is that fine? Or does one need to drain back inti the pan like stock routing??

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    I forgot to mention this. So I have the sandwich plate on my stock oil filter thing. But there is a metal pipe extention that would of connected a hose to the stock oil cooler. Right now that is plugged off because I have 2 lines coming from the sandwich plate to my oil cooler. Would that have...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    So why would my oil pressure be that different? I shimmed mine 4.6 mm. But I don't think it would be 30 psi difference at cruising at 2k rpm. I'm at about 30 psi cruising.

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Ok well I just found an old posting that I posted my clearances in. Mains in MM:- 1- .038 2- .038 3- .038 4- .04 (not exactly sure, it's just a tad smaller than the .038 marker) 5- .038 6- .038 7- .038 That's all within the spec from what I've read. I can find the rods right now bit I...
