Getting the car back today with a new CT26 and hopefully all the oil pressure issues fixed...there were a lot of leaks.
If all is good to go, I'll show up on the 7th.

It wasn't bad... about three MK IV's. One Dark Blue, One Black... and the other? I forgot. The black one was nice @ 820 hp. Heck, they were all nice.
Sadly... what was it? Only 2 MK III's? Where were ya'll at?
My turbo gray one... and the N/A white one. Still, thanks to the trip there and a couple of unexpected problems I am getting my car fixed up, yay!
Can't wait to see what the old baby will do after two weeks at Majestic Motorsports.
Thanks for the info on that place guys. You know who you are.

Got the car back last week. When is the next meet? I'm running at like 75% with some compression and idle issues. I guess I could show up, my supra would look so ugly next to all those shiny new cars haha.
tekimp- did u figure out the problem?
ryan- is your other motor almost ready or is that the one your talking about?

Hmmm... the problem... LMAO!
The $4,200 question.
lose wiring, melted wiring, bad wiring, old wiring, rusty wiring... mostly to do with the wiring and wiring harness.
So... out with the old wiring harness... and in with a brand new Haltech ECU and all new wiring harness... that will be hard wired to sensors.
The old SARD ECU was okay, but... not right for my car.
Also got me an wideband sensor and AFM Guage.
Having sheered rear diff. bolt replaced.
Having Rear Main seal replaced... that blew out... uh... yeah... explains why I was losing oil.
All work and dyno-tuning to be done by the pro's at this shop NC.
I PICK UP MY CAR THIS SATURDAY!!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!
I AM SO SICK OF DRIVING THIS VOLVO WAGON!
Can't wait to see how the car will handle with the RIGHT ECU and proper tuning.

The "other" motor won't be ready for some time. It all depends on how much money I can shovel into it. Need to buy injectors and ecu ~ 1500 bucks, 6-800 bucks into rebuilding/readying the tranny for the higher output, 1600 for the turbo and intercooler. I have all the piping paid for to make the intercooler piping and exhaust manifold. Everything else I either have or have the parts to build it. My builder has to weld and finish up the exhaust manifold. It's been about a year now that I've been throwing money at this "other" motor. Gonna have to shell out 500 for the repairs he did recently to keep it running. I had to change my spark plugs on the side of the road today because they finally quit on me...1 hour later, running again. I just granny shift and go back and forth to work, no hot runs on the highway or hard pulls. Should be a 500+tq 7M on the road come summer time in Raleigh, NC!
Sounds good ryan can wait to see it when u finally get it together
next meet is december i believe but im not sure ill check up on it

Yeah my motor is making bad noises so my supra is sitting until after the winter.. I'm going to be building the motor in the basement and continue collecting parts haha I needs to have my fuel system taken care of now and MAYBE I'll dish out for a stand alone or Map ECU we'll see
