  1. So after replacing 1 ECU and the issue of non start getting sorted (temporarily) My mechanic has managed to get the car started and stay running however a slight movement of the ECU and the car switches off. Been diagnosed as a few faulty pics in the end of the plug that goes into the ECU. So I was wondering are these pins available to buy from anywhere ? OR does anyone have a set of ECU Plugs for a N/a Manual Cheers
  2. Mechanic checked it out and said no signal to map sensor hence idling high and running quite rich. !st ECU wouldnt start the car 2nd does but with issues. I'd possibly be interested in buying the NA Manual ECU off you however just going to see if I get hold of anyone to check the wiring before buying. Will PM you
  3. I'm in a similar situation with an NA Manual. Car wouldnt start after being stood a while. Diagnosed as ECU. Got a 2nd hand replacement £150 delivered (seen some sell for £100 and some asking £250..!!) Anyway replacement ECU fitted car started but not running right. Idles at 2k rpm ish. Misfire etc.. If te ecu is in its place the car wont start. If hold it vertically the car starts. Had all wiring checked out and it seems ok and prblem coming back to a faulty (used) ECU. Apparently not sending a signal to the MAP sensor either.
  4. Considering a fairly stock 1994 N/A Manual 60k miles with good service history sold today for £10k at an auction (plus fees no doubt - not sure if buyer was from abroad or UK) i'd say its a win win for current supra owners as prices are clearly still appreciating !
  5. Well got hold of a used ecu + a new battery fitted = the car started up However have a few more issues hoping someone can help with. 1 - The car is idling at 2k rpm constantly. 2 - Battery Light / Fan light and the handbrake light in centre of dash also stay on.
  6. Cheers mate as mentioned managed to put my coil / ignitor onto another supra and that started up so don't think its the earths although I did clean up the back of the distributor coil where it makes contact with the bracket.
  7. Would love to but funds don't allow at the moment/
  8. Yeah seen that on the wanted section.. Oh well search continues
  9. After an ECU mate. Swapped ignitors with another cars and its not that.
  10. Had a mechanic look over it and he seems to think its the ECU. Took the ignitors off and fitted to one of his customers cars and they started up. Swapped with mine and it didn't start up. Unfortunately the customer has taken his car back and is unable to come back for a couple of weeks. Anyone have one for sale for a manual N/A MkIV
  11. HI, I did have a look at that (as my MR2 had similar issues many moons ago) it was slightly corroded so I gave it a clean with some sand paper and it looked OK to be honest but still won't fire up (on the drivers side turret with a lead going to the distributor). Is it possible to check if its working or not? My MR2 had an issue with the ignitor as well but it used to start but misfire..
  12. Hi all I have my friends Supra Na thats been stood a couple of years and now won't start. Engine turns but doesn't fire up. I put a live to fuel pump direct and I can hear it work however the plug to the pump isn't showing and power. Also took a lead / plug out and no spark.. It is fitted with an aftermarket alarm but that seems to be working OK (When it immobilses the car doesn't turn once switched off it turns over OK) Any ideas anyone? I'm not very mechanically minded however can do basic checks etc..
  13. Cj - if i was to go with a jspec would you take a rev3 mr2 turbo in p/x..value approx 4k - just weighing up my options atm...
  14. i have enquired about 3 iuk supra's today and all have said the service intervals between each service IS 9000 miles..... anyway if i can get a good decent spec j-spec with history in black then that may be the answer however i'll have to see if the wife can get insured at 22 yrs old anyway spoke to the chap selling the black one and it sounds a good genuine car and he knows of this forum saying he has sold a few to club members uk cars - only problem for me is its a good 2 1/2 hours drive and he's not wanting to p/x with my mr2 as he has had people interested for cash so i'll see what happens. Cheers for the help peeps p.s. there is a silver one on ebay also, a manual with mods but think he's after around 9500 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/UK-Toyota-Supra-twin-turbo-six-speed-manual_W0QQitemZ230038204401QQihZ013QQcategoryZ18290QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
  15. looking into it so j-spec could be an option but then i'm spoiled for choice
