Check your Timing.

Good to see you've chosen a supra for your first car, You've got a lot of learning to do and this is a great forum for that. Just be sure you get things right the first time. Don't cheap out on something or take a short cut to getting something done faster, because it will end up taking longer and take more money out of your pocket. I see you've decided to stick with the GE motor for a while, not a bad idea since you still need to get familiar with how the car drives/handles. I personally wouldn't waste the time and money on a 7mge, not enough power for how heavy these cars are. But again that's my personal opinion, I'm a turbo car freak lol. If you ever have any questions feel free to send me a PM, I'll be more than happy to help you out.
Forgot to say,, I actually like the two tone paint, unique and looks good! Fix that muffler though...

We are still working on the timing.afm is working fine,no check engine light,knock sensors are good.im left thinking that maybe the injectors arent working well or the timing.but the car starts right up and remains on.

no, It might be a fuel deliver issue, Log fuel pressure when it sputters. Does is cut in and out? if you go WOT will it hit like 2500 rpm and drop than kick back on?
