matts-supra

ok i fixed it. was probably something i should have double checked earlier. when i set the distributor up i was going on what i believed to be the timing marks. didn't realize how much it moves round when being inserted in to the head. so i just set the engine to tdc and removed the dizzy cap to see the arm almost 180 deg away from number 1 so after realigning the rotary arm and reassembling, it started first turn of the engine yay one happy man, now to put the rest of the car back together and set the timing with the gun. thanks for the input guys

yeah i can hear the pump prime and when i took the plugs out they were all wet that lead me to believe that i had fuel but no spark or a weak one. i even put some more 99 oct fuel in as has been sat for over a year and tank was low. and yeah ive joined the cables from the auto box.

the cam sensor is part of the distributor i believe and as ive tried 2 difference ones don't think its that. i don't believe the na has a crank sensor or i haven't found one if it does. the tps is connected i do have a spare i could try but would that stop the engine from starting if it was faulty. thanks

hello first off its a 94 jspec 2jzge auto converted to manual r154 engine ran and sounded fine when i got the car, but had to remove engine to repair damage to front of car. as it was out i stripped it down cleaned everything and fitted a tt gasket ready for na-t setup. rebuilt fitted gearbox and fitted back into car. engine turns over but doesn't start. i tested the compression all cylinders are around 150 psi which from what ive read online is correct for my setup with the tt gasket i then tested the injectors all at 13ohm resistance removed them and cleaned them. i then tested the coil resistance was out side the manuals limits so i brought a new one no difference, i took apart the distributor the arm was worn and all the contacts as well i had a spare distributor on another engine so fitted that. engine tried to start or at least seemed like it took that distributor apart and again the arm in that one was worn as well. decided to buy a new cap and arm. seems to try to start occasionally but then will turn over fast then struggle then fire but die straight away. i tested the resistance of all the coil leads all ok. removed the new ngk Iridium #7 i had fitted and put in some used ngk r plugs. still no better. ive checked all earth points and even had jumper lead on engine to battery. there's no error codes being shown. im running out of things to check any help would be greatly appreciated

hello people long shot im sure but im in need of the worm gear that goes on the output shaft for the speed sensor to pick up as shown in pic. guessing this box was used for drifting lol as doesnt have one at all.

still looking for bonnet

im after the nearside / passenger side engine mount for 2jz pre-facelift as pictured

Hi thanks for looking. I found that one aswell this morning but it's 200 miles north of me. Was hoping to find one a bit closer. Thanks anyway

im now just after a bonnet preferably a oem one will consider any condition.

Yeah I'll see what else comes up but I'm not in much of a hurry as got lots planned

Still wanted

Never really been a fan of the carbon look. Bonnet vents probably a bit big for me. But thanks anyway

I'm after a bonnet doesn't have to be standard and a oem passenger side front wing any colour. Thanks

Hi in wellingborough so not fat at all. Would be helpful to have a look a another supra under the bonnet to make sure things are where there meant to be.

I've already stripped front end and it's only the near side chassis leg that need attention but only past the engine mount the rest is all straight. Time isn't an issue for me I'm in no rush. I've priced up the repair to put to standard and it's about a grand. I only paid 1300 for it so bit less then 3k. Yes I could of got one needing no work but then it's not the same as building your own. I guess you'll just have to wait and see what it ends up like. But to me I love working on cars and this is my favourite

I want to keep it white I think it's one of the best colours for it. I've already got a set of head lights from keron. And a crash bar so I'm on my way. I do feel I should now take as many pics along the way to show people it can be done and not cost that much if done right and you take your time. I'm hoping to attend lots of meets and a local one would be good. Haven't been in the car scene in a while now.

and i thought you all loved supras lol. i don't believe i could ever let one die, i keep seeing all the ones for breaking and i almost shed a tear. i can weld paint and fix almost anything myself so its only the parts cost and then ill get second hand and make look new. i'm in no rush to finish this car.
