JDUB ... you are awesome dude because it does take a while to get the engine to idle and is hard to start but once it is warm, cranks no problem and idles nicely. That definitely diagnosed my rough start problem. Thanks for the advice/info

That's what I'm afraid of ... So I will try to find the wires regardless but I will have to find another plug to splice on to the harness. I guess anyone would happen to have one handy they could sell me? Are there any other engine harnesses I could get one off of [i.e. going to a junk yard]?

I will calibrate the TPS when I get home from work but does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on what to do about the coolant sensor? The plug coming from the harness is destroyed. How vital is it that, that sensor be hooked up?

My BVSV is just bare with no hoses running to it if that makes a difference for anything. The A/C Coolant Sensor Switch? Yeah that is hooked up so I guess I just need to take the throttle body off and calibrate the TPS then

Update: Found the Coolant Temperature Sensor ... that is where the good news stops. The reason I did not notice/see the sensor is because the wires that are supposed to run to it have been ripped out. And to make matters worse, I don't see any trace of of wiring for the sensor and the plug...

I was not aware that buying a new TPS that it would still have to be calibrated. Also, does anyone have a picture of their coolant temperature sensor because I did buy a brand new one but what I have doesn't seem to match up at all and I know what I bought is right. So any pictures pointing it...

I have an interesting situation. Upon start up, the car is a little hard to start [from what I read all 7M's are a little rough to start at times] but none the less pumping the throttle while cranking gets the job done. However, I must keep it revved for a short period of time to make it idle...

I bought the car pretty much as it for 2000 so rice or not it was a better deal for me then the 87 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe project I had

I see what you mean about the NA cams ... They are already installed but in the next few months I really considering making the valve train stronger [s/s valves, titanium retainers etc ...] I will just switch back to the turbo cams. I just want to get a few miles on the engine before anymore...

Here are some pictures of my Supra

I decided on the NA cams because I heard some people say it gives you a bit more torque and helps the turbo spool a little quicker

I look to run 12psi ... waiting to get insurance on it so I can really get it on the road. But I meant stock AFM and ECU but I am running a piggyback via the HKS FCon w/ graphics controller ... any particular reason to advise against the fuel cut defender?

lol I seriously hope it never blows up or crashes. I will post the pictures when I get home. There is A LOT of work done to this car. I spent 1200 in just gauges alone. It's also a 5spd and a targa top. I hope all of my engine mods makes the car last A LONG time.

I am now owner of a 86.5 Supra [89 7M-GTE in it] and I want to know if there is anything engine wise I need to watch carefully or any general advice since this is the first Supra I have owned or driven. I will list everything done to the engine thus far. OEM Crankshaft Eagle H Beam Rods JE...
