    No, they do not just bolt on. There have been a lot of threads on this. Some examples: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?25787-MKIV-Brake-Rotors&highlight=MKIV+spindles http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?103528-mkIV-brakes-on-MKIII&highlight=MKIV+spindles...

    1jz Plugs gapped to .20 and still blowing out spark?

    It's one possibility. And it's one of the easiest to test and/or eliminate. Read JetJock's voltage drop testing walk through here, it will help a lot: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?54914-Voltage-Supply-Problem-ECU-(highly-technical)&p=771496&viewfull=1#post771496

    1jz Plugs gapped to .20 and still blowing out spark?

    Fuel pumps are very voltage dependent. The MKIV pump runs acceptably at 12v, runs very well at 13.5v. I generally run a large gauge home run directly to the positive terminal of the battery (with a fuse on the battery end) and feed the pumps off of that via a relay. The only thing I use the...

    You could try getting the pump flow tested, or replacing it with a known good unit. Since your problems appear to have started when you swapped the pump, I'd suspect wiring or the pump itself as the culprit. A set of six 550's theoretically flow about 200 lph @ at 100% injector duty cycle. If...

    turbo not boosting and low idle?

    Factory BOV's don't seal well because they are intended to recirc. They all leak to one degree or another.

    Honestly sounds like more of a fuel system problem. Give us an overview of your car: Turbo, injectors, fuel system, base fuel pressure, pump, lines, etc. Adding fuel isn't going to help if the fuel isn't there to be delivered. You could be deadheading the pump. Read this post (it's not...

    turbo not boosting and low idle?

    The factory BOV setup is a recirculated system. Both ends are connected to the intake - that's not your leak.

    Blown MHG?

    I came here to say that. The long aluminum head on the Supra relies on even loading on ALL of those bolts. If any of them were loose, that's your problem.

    turbo not boosting and low idle?

    Surging idle and boost problems are almost always caused by a boost/vacuum leak. I'll give you 10:1 odds you have one and you just haven't found it yet. It could be anywhere between the AFM and the intake manifold. Trace everything, double and triple check - you'll find it.

    srsly guys. What's up?

    I strongly disagree. You take what you want from this site. If you're a hard core tech guy wanting to go fast, you had better listen to the likes of me, IJ and other oldschool guys. If you're looking for longevity and maintenance, JDub knows his shit. Electrical problem? Nobody will get you...

    srsly guys. What's up?

    Something that belongs in Off-Topic... Thread moved. As for the OP's question - this is a site for people to interact who love Supras. Some of it is techincal, some of it isn't. Some people aren't all about speed, some people only care about speed. One thing is for certain, while the forum can...

    Have you named your supra(s)?
