Hi Lee, your inbox is full. Just checking if you still do the twin fan kit. Also do you have a TPS for a pre vvti. Cheers

ok great, thanks for the info

Hello Does anyone know if the TPS is different between the UK and JSPEC engines. Need to check if my UK has a fault and my other supra is JSPEC. Just wanted to check before I invest in a new one. Cheers

After a fuel flap in good working order. Any colour but 040 white would be a bonus. Also looking for a veilside andrews wheel in 18" 8.5J. I have a small crack on one of my front spokes. The wheels are in almost new condition apart from that so I would like to keep them if possible. Long shot i know but worth an ask Cheers

Like you I have always used NGK was just curious as hadn't seem much about platinum iridium plugs and was curious if they had any advantage.

Okay think I solved it. Tried the spark plugs from my other supra and it pulls really well all the way through the turbo. I thought i would try it with my Whifbitz coil packs first and no problems, which is reassuring as they are nearly new. Just out of interest. Does anyone use the Bosch Platinum Iridium plugs, and if so what the exact model to use in a supra is. The ones i pulled out of my other supra were these but only had R6 and platinum iridium printed on the on the side of the plug

I have another supra with good OEM coils, will try that tonight.

They were Whifbitz ones. I thought this would be best bet after OEM as Paul states these are used on their high power demo car and mines running no where near that. They only went in 1000 miles ago and they were fine until about two weeks ago.

Forgot to say the fuel pump is only a year old and it's uprated as I went single.

Hello, Been having a few issues when boosting above 0.6/7 bar (Normally boosts fine to 1.0 bar). Almost like a misfire but its like a rapid fire judder with the needle on the boost gauge. The car will rev all the way through the rev range as long as I dont floor it. It gets worse the higher the gear which I would expect as the car builds more pressure in higher gears. The car is a single turbo. Has all new fuel lines and filter (this was happening before i installed these). It did clear up after i installed brand new coil packs and the clips are good, however its come back. The plugs are not that old but and i have had them out for clean up but not joy. Going to change them for new as first port of call, but just wondered if anyone could suggest any other checks to make. Ive also checked the vacuum lines and cant seem to find any splits etc. Cheers in advance.

Will give that a go as ive only WD40 to hand. But unfortunately at least one of the fixings is for the scrap so new lines all round.

Yeah one came off with with mole grips but still can't get the last two. I'll try again tonight.

Hello, Just updating my brake lines and have two hard lines that are impossible to get off. To make things worse the connectors have rounded off trying to release them. With the age of the car i might as well replace the actual hard lines. Couple of questions. 1, After doing some searching I see that Chris W recommends replacing them with Kunifer pipes (Chris is you read this please feel free to comment ). Unless nothing else has become a better option should I go with this or is there still an argument for OEM lines? 2, How easy is it to fit the connectors either end, what tools do I need, and any recommendations of where to buy all of this. Cheers

Can you confirm which variation it is. Does yours fit a single turbo.

Hi Keron, Do you have a fuel flap in 040 white at all. Cheers

Okay problem of the over fueling solved, thanks to all the people that help. I managed to fashion a makeshift clip to plug the wires back into the coolant sensor. Started idles and runs well. Still concerned about the head though so off for a compression test. Cheers again

Excuse my stupidy that part number is the clip

Yeah it's a great thread I've been reading through that for the coolant temp resistance. I just need to know if the temp sensor comes with the clip that plugs into it as that's what's broken, but will change sensor whilst I'm there

Okay think I just found my issue. just went to test the coolant sensor and one of the wires came out of the clip right at the back so no chance of soldering. Must be just the age of the car. Tried to save the connector but whilst removing the prongs it crumbled. So any one know where to get a new connector, or is the sensor/thermostat a standard part i.e available from an autofactors

can anyone tell me why after idle, then raising the revs to 2200 rpm and releasing the gas would it take a long time for the revs to return back to idle. Ive checked the TPS and i get the first and last readings but its a bugger to get to the terminals with a multi meter. Also can anyone confirm a jspec tt and uk tt TPS is the same unit. I may try the tps off my jspec to test. I still think i have a HG issue as the crap is still under the oil cap, however i dont get any overheating or bubbling of the coolant. Cars getting pressure tested today so will report back. Also after carefully looking through the aem software whilst connected i noticed the coolant temp seems really low. So just about to check that sensor as that could explain the rich AFR readings.

I have a little garage two streets away that have said they can do this, may just take it over to get a confirmation either way.

Okay cleaned lambda sensor, wideband, spark plugs and put in the IACV from my other supra. Started well, but AFR still reading 10. Let it run for a while and noticed I still have a small coolant leak above the back of the block from the pipe running out of the heater. Noticed lots of condensation coming out the back, so got it back into the garage and turned it off. Checked the oil cap and it seems to have the dreaded creamy shit under it. So fearing the worst. I cleaned the cap up put it pack on and started it again. Started a little groggy and lots of fuel smoke again, AFR reading 10. Turned it off and checked the oil cap again, same stuff even after i cleaned it. So i think the head gasket has gone, would all of my symptoms make sense. Then I guess i need to know whats the best way to test to confirm.

Im going to take the lamba and the AFR wide band sensor out and give then a clean. But also going to try my IACV from my other supra (should have tried that first really but stupidly didnt think)

I had a look on the software and they all seem to be reading the same. They were brand new two years ago.

Not sure on the clicking my exhaust is pretty loud (hks ti) plus it's in my garage so doubles the echo. Car is really spluttering and firing out a lot of black stuff.
