    Seriously? What did they do to it?

    If you decide to part it out, id like the MAFT-Pro system. Seems like one of the more worthy parts on the car.

    Anyone smoked their lights

    Did you sand them / wet sand them at all? Clearcoat? They looked good at first but the more i look at them they dont seem as clear as ive seen.

    160 degree thermostat

    So using a 180degree tstat your coolant levels stay at around 195 degrees? I don't have a aftermarket water temp gauge but im workin on it... So 180 tstat would still allow the ecu to work properly? Are the part numbers the same at both stores? Napa - Advanced - Autozone wherever i go. Again...

    Heater switch valve question.

    So what your saying in the first paragraph, by losing 8-10F of ac goodness you mean it just wont be as cold? If so i can live with that since i don't use my ac anyways, (It sucks, i never recharged it, havnt got around to it, just dont use it) The second paragraph, saying as long as the...

    160 degree thermostat

    What is / how do you remove the jiggle valve? I havn't replaced a thermostat on a car yet, but i know it can't be hard. Id just like to know what it is / how to remove it before i tear things apart. Also, where would i get a stant superstat? Online somewhere im assuming, doesn't sound like...

    BVSV Broke?

    Man i never said if this would improve anything, or anything like that. I was just asking if any harm is done by doing it. I know the cars are made the way they are for every exact reason, (Been told this too many times on this forum) but im just asking what the BAD would be if i did that since...

    BVSV Broke?

    And im literally dumping the exhaust gasses by my passenger tire :biglaugh: Anyways, just throwing this out where. What could go BAD if i just plugged the BVSV area and blocked off the 1 nipple on the TB that has to do with the BVSV?

    BVSV Broke?

And sorry i got exhaust gasses and gas vapor mixed up in the earlier post, it happens. And again, not talkin shit bout you...

    BVSV Broke?

    Do you know which line im talking about? How would the line going from the BVSV to the CC cause tank pressure? Ive been told by several owners without it that its the bigger plastic line coming off the back that goes to the tank. And off to read that stuff about #2 EDIT: Looking at number two...

    BVSV Broke?

    Ok ill go ahead and get one. I just dont see the point as i removed the CC and blocked off the vacuum line going to the CC from the BVSV. But alright whatever, get a new one, hook the lines up and keep that one blocked off like i have it.

    160 degree thermostat

    If i bought a t-stat from the dealer would it include the o-ring thing and a gasket for the neck?

    BVSV Broke?

    Its a giant loop. It pulls vacuum from the TB to pull the re-circulated exhaust gasses back in. At least, thats what ive gathered.

    BVSV Broke?

    This is the info i was looking for. So just get a plug/bolt/something to block off where it screws into the t-stat neck then block the nipple off at the throttle body?

    BVSV Broke?

    I read through the section and basically just read that im venting flammable gasses 100 times. Enough said. Also, i just don't see the point of replacing it if im blocking it off. What are the downs of blocking it off? Can it cause any harm? Im listening to what people are saying (Not being hard...

    BVSV Broke?

    Thats no good to hear. Id rather not spend 40$ or so on something thats just being blocked off in the first place. I don't really see it causing any problem... Just want some input from the pros ya know.

    Heater switch valve question.

    http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291420/catalog.aspx?F=8716&P=1 Part 87240. From what ive read this controls the flow to water to the back of the head. I know people have taken it out, to make it full flow at all times, which would in theory keep temps down, but what are the cons to...

    BVSV Broke?

    Alright, so the top nipple of my BVSV or whatever its called (Referring to the cygnus x1 thing http://cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=EC&P=4 ) and its causing a vac leak. Heres the thing, i pulled out my charcoal canister and plugged off that vac line. By looking at the...

    160 degree thermostat

    No heating probs, t-stats leaking a little so i was about to replace the thermostat/gasket/o-ring thing and was just seeing if a 160 would be better. Yeah im just gonna listen to other people and grab a 195temp reg one. Should i go to toyota for this (Like i do for SOME parts) or should i...

    160 degree thermostat

    Would a 180 over our stock 195 throw the system off too much? Or would it be, deal-able? I know it'll use a little more gas because its trying to warm the car up, but isnt that only at idle? I could care less if my idle went up 50-100 rpms because the cars colder. Yes it'll use more gas, but it...
