I just noticed today that my car at speeds over 20mph about the car vibrates really bad steering column included. Before recently I would get similar vibration when I was off throttle or braking, but now its happening all of the time. Has this happened to anyone before, could it be the tie rods...

Where can I get the pins, I'm building my harness from scratch and no one in town has these pins.

sorry to completely jack your thread yongai, i hope you're learning a lot though. I may be at 5deg now but durring timing it was either 5 or 20deg BTDC and I chose five, are you sure its still just a tooth? It's more likely that I'm off a tooth, and I need to get a new cps seal any way.

ah, now I see. so how would you fix it, turn the crank pully to 0 and then take the cps out. after that would you turn the crank 180deg. or one full rotation then put the cps back in? I'm saying this because you can't really put the cps upsidedown.

if they were 180deg. out then wouldn't it not start because spark would come when nothing would ignite, please explain this to me if I'm wrong, but I worked on an old fiat in which the timing was off 180 degrees and it wouldn't start. Putting the engine together I made sure the timing marks...

^^^ true dat, last time I tried to time the car I spent about an hour trying to get it right with the cps and the best I could do was 5deg. BTDC, maybe my cps is off a tooth?

I'm pretty sure the 7mgte only has a cam position sensor, but I could be wrong. Checking your timing is the same for both kinds of ignition though, so I would suggest you start there and see if your timing is off.

no idea, but I'm going to have my mechanic friend help/teach me.

I found it, its 77740-14240, time to go to toyota and see if they can get me one. I wonder what they would charge me? probably an arm and a leg.

so no one knows the part number for the JDM canister?

I have done that, but there were no part numbers or cars I could find a smaller one out of.

part number/ pics? just in case I have to go to a junkyard to find one to fit my budget. that doesn't look too much smaller.

I'm looking for the updated ignition clips. they look like these pictures. I'm trying to amass a number of these so I don't have to worry about screwing up re-pinning them for my IS300 ignition mod. I'm just looking for a part number so I can put a bunch on order at my local Toyota dealer. Sorry...

I have heard that some guys have gotten smaller charcoal canisters that work, but I have found no one who could tell me where to get one. I would really like to put a catch can where my charcoal can is, but I won't do that until I have secured a charcoal can that is smaller so I can hide it...

that's what I thought, but IS300s have a 2JZ-GE, so technically they are 2JZ coils.

what about 1jz coils. This guy says, says that these are 1jz, but they look like 2jz coils http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Supra-7MGTE-Up-Grade-1JZ-2JZ-NA-Coils-/200531350654?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2eb099947e

does any one know the part number for the jdm charcoal canister? I was going to put a catch can where mine is, but you can't really get rid of the charcoal canister, so no catch can until I have a new smaller charcoal can.

I sent them a question asking what the thickness and grade of the pipe is. I know nothing of that stuff so when they answer me I'll post it and see how bad it really is.

I'm getting about 14mpg in town, right now my timing is at 5 degrees before tdc. I think that's is the reason I'm getting bad fuel economy and I'm running pretty rich at full boost, every one tells me that when I get on it there is a decent gray/black cloud coming from my exhaust. Maybe your...

I was on the bane of my existence the other day and I found this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/7MGTE-SUPRA-DOWN-PIPE-DUAL-FLEX-CT26-TURBO-DOWNPIPE-3-/110584706645?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3ASupra&hash=item19bf5cb655 Does anyone have one of their DPs? I'm a very...
