Hrm.. bad speed sensor? Think it works by comparing front wheels to the rear. If it exceeds a set tolerance, it will turn on the traction control. If it really exceeds that limit, it will lock it into snow mode until you press the Trac button to turn off and reset it. This is what people bitch about when they get excessive wheelspin when pulling across lanes of traffic and the snow mode kicks in and the car is powerless in oncoming traffic. As for the fault, have you pulled any fault codes? You activate the engine check codes by placing a small length of copper wire between TE1 and E1 in the engine diagnostic circuit box. There are actually 2 boxes that contain these circuits and you can use either one. One is in the engine bay near the throttle body and the other is under the drivers footwell at around knee height. You read the diagnostic codes on the engine check light which is to the right of the drivers steering wheel (RH drive vechicles) at the level of the top of the steering wheel. For example, if you have a code 31, it will blink 3 times then 1 time, pause then repeat. If you have more then one code, then it will display them all in order and then continue to repeat them. Codes - http://mkiv.supras.org.nz/articles/engine_1.htm -------------------------------------------- I will have a look at my old notes when I was troubleshooting my Trac fault last year. There might be some more info about diagnosing the TRAC system in particular.

Its simple fact that the same questions are asked on nearly a weekly basis. A simple look under our own or other Supra Tech Sections. Since my first post wasnt too helpful, I offer the following: http://www.supraforums.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=61 Turbo - http://www.mkiv.com/faq/faqtt.html Non-Turbo - http://www.mkiv.com/faq/nafaq.htm That took about 60 seconds of work.

The PS pump is known to fail by holding the wheel at full lock. Just avoid doing this too much.

Last time I was in JPS, Leon had a few just shipped in. Might want to give him a ring.

Just thought I would mention its illegal. Just so nobody has any suprises.

My car had a "Flame Kit" installed before I bought it. I was never able to get any flames though. Its wired exactly as stated earlier. Just the tip of a plug inserted into the exhaust thats connected to a coil in the boot, thats turned on by a switch at the drivers console. I will see if I can get some flames next week when the Supe is back with full PHR mid-pipe and downpipe with new Tubby. :flame Dev

Those are some nice wheels!

Underneath the passenger footwell. Very simple to access.

I dont see the problem with a restrictor ring if youre overboosting. Its 10x cheaper than new turbos. I had to fit a restrictor on my car with de-cat and induction due to my Blitz ECU. The thing wouldnt hold under 1.2 bar without it. Once I fit my restrictor, my high boost setting was at 30% at 1.3 bar and low was around 1.0 There was no noticeable performance drop since I was still able to dial in my boost on the controller. Its cheap, and it works!

I believe Leon runs a version of modified twin 3037's.

= Bigger + External Wastegate! Go single. C'mon, you know you want to. Think I read somewhere the J-Spec wastegate is smaller than UK by a few mm. I would have to dig up the Tech Article.

Attached what?

Think there was a thread on here earlier with a list top to bottom db of popular zorts. Off the top of my head, I only remember these 3 in order. Veilside TI HKS Hiper Blitz Nur-Spec

I wouldnt think it would be difficult to replace the stock wing. Alot of people on the BBS have upgraded to an aftermarket version, so there are plenty of 2nd hand ones floating around. As for paint (if required) and fitment, talk to Dude.

Makes sense, since 18psi = 1.24bar me for being too lazy to look it up the 1st time.

I think 18psi is where fuel cut occours off the top of my head. If you guys are meant to do a "stock car" race, you could always fit a bleeder valve to up your boost. Its a cheap alternative to a boost controller and wouldnt be noticeable by your EVO friend, unless he was looking for it. The others' advice is good, but I dont think it would qualify as a stock Supra vs stock EVO. Good luck.

Even if so, its past those speeds because its always wheelspin on 2nd turbo in 1st and 2nd gear. (Auto box)

True about the gradient on the roads. But if this were the case we drive on the left side of the road, and the water would naturally run to the left to stop water from pooling the the center of streets. So the car should drift left, but mine always seems to go right. Gotta check tyre pressures tho.

O/S/R wing?

I've got the Blitz Access ECU. As far as I know, it keeps the functionality of the stock, but advances timing, removes Speed Limiter, boosts higher, and adds more fuel.

Just curious if anyone else experiences this. I have the factory fitted LSD on my car. When I do drag style pulls and experience wheelspin, it always pulls my rear end out to the right. Is there any particular reason it goes out the exact same way most of the time? Also, does it mean the LSD could be faulty? I read the factory LSD's are nearly indestructible, but I just cant figure why my car pulls to the one side. Its not off the line wheelspin, it does the same through 1st and 2nd gear on 2nd turbo at 1.3bar pulls. Tyres are brand new 275/35/19 Eagle F1s. I already have RLTC waiting to get installed, I am just curious if there is another underlying problem.
