if you got a series 1 1993 supra, you gotta take that top panel off with all the warning lights and the odometer attached to it, and you have to cut a wire on the odometer cables and jump it on another cable, search it up on supra forums.com there is the info there on which cables to do. i had my auto doing the same thing i did the trick and it worked never came on again. The ecu doesnt know how fast the car is going right now, so its in the safe mode, so it will shift rough, and it cut off all of the limits from the ecu, so its got no speed limiter anymore (if your car is j-spec) but you can blow it up if you rev the shit out of it, is what i heard.

also will a front mount intercooler kit with piping for a non vvti 2jz gte supra, fit the vvti 2jz gte supra?? Cause i see that the throttle body look a little different, so im wondering if the diameter is the same as the non vvti throttle body, and if the non vvti after market intercooler pipe will fit over the vvti throttle body perfectly fine

bump

thanks for the replies. I see that there is a bit of an argument about the vvti turbo model having the same steel shaft turbo's as the usdm non vvti engines? and how much does a bone stock vvti turbo model 6 speed make to the crank? i found out 290whp but im wondering to the crank?

also any reliable websites i can order small performance parts from to slowly make it bpu? Also will down pipes fit from non vvti on the vvti?? Where can i get the intercooler piping?? like for aftermarket?

how is the gearing different??

what do you mean

also is the whole stock twin turbo assembly and charge pipes exactly the same as the non vvti ? or have they made some changes to those

TT is short for twin turbo lol. You got the best supra there is twin turbo and v160 tranny.

havent posted here in quite some time guys. but here it goes. After driving around in my good ol 1993 supra Twin turbo auto, i decided it was now time to upgrade. So i sold that, and i have been looking, and finally found one. it is on the way here to Canada, and will arrived in 2 weeks from the best importer in canada. Its a 1998 Supra Twin turbo VVTI 6 speed manual V161. I am quite exited about this, car seems to be in beautiful condition from the pictures. However now i am sort of worried, as people are telling me it kind of hard to find parts for these beauties. And im not really truly understanding the difference between the V160 and the V161 on the 98. Does the clutch system from the v160 fit on the v161?? Also can someone please post me a reliable website that is fairly cheap that i can order, stock and aftermarket parts for it?? Does the HKS TI cat back exhaust system from the non vvti fit the vvti model? thanks in advance guys. Sorry for asking about which website has good fairly cheap parts for it, because i am from Canada and these vvti models never came here.

welcome to the forum man, what kind did ya get tt 6 speed?

i went today and took off the intercooler pipe, and took a pic of the charge pipe, and what was inside the intercooler pipe. I see it is very minimal oil, before this video the car was boosted pretty hard, and i see there is very minimal engine oil in the charge pipe, which i read is perfectly normal? and i also snapped a picture of what is inside my air box. u can see the oil has piled up at the bottom. let me know also im using CASTROl EDGE 10W-30 Fully Synthetic motor oil, the motor oil on my dip stick is cleaner than the one i found in my air box.

we have awesome highways, to really open these things up. I think within the first week i got it, i maxed it out to 190 km/hr, and then the ecu cut it out. The only bad thing is, that cops really have nothing to do here, so they literally camp out on these highways to get us.

i am in located in Alberta, so one province over. and yeah it does get cold as heck here. And i dont have my supra in a heated garage, just an insulated garage. Even tho, coldest its been in the garage was -17 Celcius, and the supra amazingly started up on first crank haha

thanks man
