I have a 89 Supra turbo with the 7MGTE motor running a HKS twin power DLI,HKS V-pro,Methenol Injection,Apexi AVC-R,1000cc Injectors,2# fuel pumps and regulator.When I start the car it fires right up and it idles around 750RPM when I drive it for a while and shut it down it will not fire up and I am getting no spark from the spark plug wires.If I pop the clutch at 5 miles an hour it will fire right up.I have changed the CPS and it is ok now, put if I wait about 30 minutes the car will fire up.I was thinking maybe it is the Ignition switch but I do not know.Any ideas.
Thanks

First thing that comes to mind, is the ignitor. Have you checked that? Heat could be effecting it, maybe. It's the only thing I can think of that would cut spark to all cylinders at once. Or maybe the wiring from the ignitor to the coil pack.

I replaced the Ignitor and it still will not spark after it has ran for a while.
I had to pop the clutch to get it to start.Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

If you are able to bumpstart it right away, it must be getting a spark. As rayall stated, it sounds like a heat soak problem with the start circuit. Hard to troubleshoot on the web of course, but it has to have a proper ignition event even to bumpstart. That would mean the ignitor is working, yes? gl. sounds like a puzzler.
