martincoupe Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 1995 n/a lack of power but revs raise up was doing. 70 in 5th went to overtake and no power there to do it revs go but just no real speed increase. Oil level fine and coolant also fine. Has me confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellonman Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Clutch Or just the fact you have an N/A would be the reason in lack of power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanya Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Uhh the smell of burned clutch in the morning.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Your car is fitted with a limiter that recognised you were at 70, it engaged to prevent you speeding. I was about to say is it an auto, then I seen you were in 5th, so I have nothing to say apart from the voodoo gizmo thingy I mentioned above.

Rich.2211 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Definitely sounds like the clutch as mentioned above. Plus side, it's a doddle to swap on a mkiv Supra even for an enthusiast mechanic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Sounds like the clutch is slipping, generally the symptoms are what you are describing where the revs raise but you don't actually get a speed increase. How old is the clutch? Is the biting point low? Have you smelt clutch burn before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martincoupe Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 Clutch. went last night. Now need to find one and have it repaired today ASAP. Bloody typical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Don't overtake in 5th I think at 70, I would have been dropping back in 4th iirc. It is a while since I had my NA 5 speed though but I remember having to thrash it to get anywhere. Clutch is an easy fix. Problem is, it won't be much quicker when fixed. H.

skippyboyo1 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Defo clutch. Don't listen to the haters, good engine you have there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martincoupe Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 I don't mind haters we all have to start off some where and just getting the supra with a manual box made me happy it turns heads every where it goes and as a daily driver it's great on fuel and enjoyment. If I had the time money etc I would get a twin turbo then out loads of money in to it get lots of power but I just done have that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
