A little strange with mine, on the top of your Throttle Body you appear to have 3x Vacuum ports. On the top of mine, i only have 1x port. (the line with the PCV valve on it) Will check it out tonight, ordered the gaskets i should have changed too, just as a precaution.
-
I did check them, all are on and i used new SFS vacuum hose the other week. Just doubting myself as to whether they are on correctly. Although i did find a PCV valve in one line was on backwords lol it hasnt changed owt though...
-
Ahh ok, will give it a go tonight. Is it just a case of T'ing the vac gauge into all the vacuum lines one at a time?
-
Will take a look at that tonight Good shout, i did take the plenum off the other day thinking about it, never changed the gasket though as it seemed ok.. Is there a link on how to test the Vacuum system?
-
I checked it, still ok, wasnt touched since being off the road tbh. I dont think it would be, mine has a distributor and single coil pack. I think all TT's are wasted spark? The lead colour only relates to the thickness, not application (Red=8.5mm, Blue=8mm, Black=7.5mm) Going to try an ECU, sure i have read other guys ECU's have dies after being so long without the batter hooked up...
-
I think ECU will be next, just hope it sorts it, been waiting forever to drive it lol
-
Topped it up with fresh fuel, cleaned up plugs, checked the dizzy cap, rotor arm, pulled the leads when running to see if it made a difference. Still no joy. Wonder if the ECU has died after having the battery disconnected for so long

Hey guys, Kinda looking for some advice, my NA-Auto had been off the road for almost 6 months now whilst I have been converting to a W58 gearbox. Install is all done and ok, but the idle is shockingly crap and all over the shop. It was fine before. Now its running very very rich and lumpy. Small video below to show how erratic it is; https://vimeo.com/184191570 Only changes have been the manual conversion and a set of Magnecor 8.5mm HT leads. No fault codes or anything, still using the auto ecu too. Anyone had a similar problem?
-
Manual conversion is almost done, just the exhaust to fit, box to fill with oil and a pre Mot check over.

Pm'd

Thats my preferred method, the Factory Scissor jack does have a cut out of it if i remeber correctly to go around the sill flitch (if thats the correct wording???) good as a last but temporary resort...
-
Nice, lots planned for a daily car! The Aristo is cool, would love a big family car to drift in, Supra will have to do for now though..!
-
Mine too...!
-
Not so much a super power, but more a super inconvenience, but waiting to pull out of junctions, people seem to slow down, not let me pull out, all just to look at the car... Me and a friend noticed it in our own Supra's

I think ultimately a car will only be worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I had a bit of a bitch fit with mine after loosing out on a W58 box, got fed up and chucked it up for sale on here. Pricing was probably too high realistically, but the parts fitted alone would equeate to more if I broke it... Since buying it as when it was NA Auto, around £2-3k seemed to be the going rate, now they seem to be closer to £5k..! I since found a box and have decided to keep it and use it for what i intended.... (stripped track and drift toy)

We supply KAAZ LSD'd and have 2x standard DAT3020's and 2x Super-Q DAT3020-WPC's in stock. Notes on our system says if the car is a TT 6-Speed or using the diff from a TT 6-Speed model, it will not fit....
-
Welcome..! What do you have planned for the car? Just a restoration? or will you be using it for anything else other than daily use?
-

Came close, but back on track now..! Will be worth it in the end I hope! Cheers buddy, I like the different route, don't get me wrong, would love a big old Turbo, but the noise this should make will be mega! She's been on a diet already, i've stripped out everything lol. Fibreglass panels and perspex glass may find its way on there at some point i'm sure lol
-
Finally go my hands on a Gearbox after a quick run to Leicester. Super chuffed! Will be back on the road later next week once my clutch arrives.... More to come soon...
-
Thanks bud, really chuffed with how they came out
-
Well its been a hard few days after loosing the purchase on the Gearbox. Came close to giving up, but once again, i'm back on track. Gearbox and related parts will be collected this weekend thanks to a tip off from Keron Plus, the heat proof vinyl i had made for the Valve Covers landed today. Looking like a 7M-GTE now..! lol Few more bits to get sorted and hopefully will be back on the road next week at some point
