I have had this pointed out to me and I am just looking at some comments. Currently running with a 57Trim CT26, 550 injectors, 3" exhaust and Lexus AFM. Brand spanking new rebuilt engine. Now, I ran out of $$ so have to wait on the intercooler/bov upgrade until later and am getting mixed...

Ran out of money bascially. Wasn't planning to do all these upgrades, but when I took it in for other upgrades, we ended up climbing directly to the engine and found it was rebuilt bad and was on its way out the door. Generally I like planning my upgrades so its done correct. I just didn't have...

All-in-all, everything from the motor mounts up has basically been rebuilt/replaced. The 550s and Lexus AFM were installed by the shop that wrote the book on the Lexus AFM upgrade. However to be honest, I have no idea what was done to "tune" it. Not sure what dyno it is, but the sheet says...

Its going back into the shop for a couple issues and then I am going to see what Reg things (he's the one that wrote that link.. ). Normally when the car hits the dyno, Reg is there to fine tune everything, however I rushed them because my 90 blew the headgasket and I wanted to get the 88 home...

Yeah, mine goes to 10.0 (won't show lower) whenever I go WOT. With the TCCS relearning anything that happens, I cant really get around the pig rich scenario.. at least not set up like I am. The evc-s is new and with the manual at home we couldn't adjust it to buil a better boost curve. It's...

Well, at 14 psi boost, the car is doing 300 rwhp and 367 max torque. Fuel goes pig rich at 3600 RPM.. so now I see why a standalone system is desirable. There is no real way for me to control this at present... I can tune the boost with the controller somewhat, but overall, if I want true...

Not done with it, but this is where it sits today. Still more to do. If I could get it from running so damn rich, could squeeze a lot more power out of it. Also having a problem setting up the EVC-S boost controller because I left the manual in my garage.. lol. So, its a basic setup with just...

well.. mine is another one of those stories.. 80,000 km on a rebuild.. and the head gasket goes? Too many people building these engines that need to stick to lawn mowers...

Today I towed away my Prophetic Licensed 90 Supra for a new headgasket... yep... the license plate pegged it perfectly...

Thanks! It's nice to finally be able to trust the car is bulletproof if I push it. Definitely a joy to drive

Mine are 9 front and 10 rear... photos at http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?56843-Wheel-Fitment-amp-Question-Thread&p=1836728&viewfull=1#post1836728 18" Work Rims Frt rims - 18x8 +35, 225/40zr18 (directional) Rear rims - 18x9 +35, 255/35r18 (not directional) (photos are before I...

I have found that 86.5 to 88 seem to have roughly the same value with 89-80 being slightly higher. 91 and 92 are highest and rarest from what I can tell. (I dont recall ever seeing a 91... odd now that I think of it). Saleswise, I have seen them 2k - 6k roughly, but would try to use about a 4.5k...

Stupid question, but what condition are your injectors in. Did you play with them? Just wondering, because I recall that my Odyssey had a period of sputtering and almost didn't run. Took it in to be serviced.. they "fixed" it so that it would do exactly the same thing on the drive home. I ran...

E85 is the US subsidied Corn fuel... (google it really). Helps with detonation.. not available anywhere else I know of though. (supposedly Europe.. but haven't heard) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E85

Doesnt look totalled to me. Not quite sure if the bumper is just cosmetic (repaint), but partswise, its pretty cheap to repair that area... (from what I can see, damage is to bumper, fender, possibly inner wheel well, not sure of the front valance (under the nose cover). It looks pretty easy to...

no need for a big reply. I get exactly what your saying, my point is that the difference between a good mechanic and a great mechanic are the little things. The big things are easy to tackle. Its the "fine points" that get overlooked. I would say over half of the people that have had issues...

Mine was the most expensive simply because I have done no mechanical work on it. Nada. Started to, and ran into so many little issues, I realised that regardless what I did, my skill level would leave me with a car sitting for years and years rather than one running. Remember... you know how to...

Clean the floor (use the wax "glue" remover), seal it, prime it.. your good for 15-20 years. (I just did my bathroom which is on concrete like that... they lasted about 25 years). I just did the HKS 3" on my 7MGET, twin tip HKS muffler (very pretty). Found it is a nice idle rumble with no...

My boost gauge (digital and rectangular) is doubl taped to face of ashtray (now coin box)
