If you log VANOS EX target and actual values and drive around at low boost conditions, you can verify that VANOS is working correctly and not a mechanical issue. If the issue is only VANOS Exhaust side, it's extremely likely it's not a mechanical VANOS issue but is related to fuel pump/pressure...
It went pretty smooth for the most part.
Issues that arise:
Disassembly:
- Cradle bolts and oilpump bolts are weak and will shred if the socket isn't perfectly on them.
-Buy all the bolts and tools ahead of time to reduce delays.
- This is a good opportunity to replace the plastic oilpump...
I picked up this 2022 Supra used about two years ago after getting tired of the 4-month dealership waitlist. Even though I paid a slight premium at 28k km, it’s been worth every cent. It’s now sitting at 112,000 km, serving as my high-speed daily driver. It survived a body-panel-only incident at...
Interesting. That's actually relatively similar to what the older LS1/6 engines would do to the fresh air port. Most would use a 1 or 2 psi check valve, and like you mention it wasn't perfect but it did cut down dramatically on oil going into the intake. I commonly use the little breather you...
Just got my car back from the dealer under my extended warranty. Oilpump is the main culprit. There's plenty of post on this issue now. Appararently the first year supra has a plastic part in the oilpump and the new part is has a slight redesign the prevent this.
Hello everyone, I’ve been dealing with this issue for about a month now. Just got my turbo replaced, oilpump replaced and also got a catless down pipe and armaspeed intake. I have a good amount of smoke coming out of the exhaust only at idle, I replaced the valve cover and turbo oil drain line...
Hello folks,
I am putting together a new build thread for my V2 time attack and track focused build to track progress and get helpful tips/pointers
I started tracking the car last season (our seasons here in Dubai are in the winters) and I really did enjoy the heck out of it. So I did more of...
Nice. It sounds like you're on the right path. I've had 3 different LP fuel setups and ended up with Radiums which doesn't look all dissimilar to yours but make sure you opt for a high-flow pump. My kit came with a single 255 which would be fine for your application but if you ever upgrade...
Thanks for the reply, I totally forgot to update that comment after doing a bit more research and contacting multiple shops which essentially answered most of the questions I asked.
I still ended up pre-ordering the New Pure900 2-port (RIP ship date is 3/27/2026). Every tuner and shop highly...
Unless you can do work yourself like dropping the front subframe to change the oilpump, find a heavy discount on Toyota warranty Is the better route. Personally for the discounted price on the 10 year Toyota platinum warranty, it takes me 2 working days to pay for it. i Figured over 7 years...
...20 years and the supra has been at the dealership for repairs longer than all them Honda/Acura combine. Spend 3 weeks at dealer ship for oilpump. Supra is the first european car I owned. I bought the Toyota 10 years/100k miles warranty. First warranty on a car I ever bought. 2 years of...
Honestly you may want to save up and go top-mount.. I had two pure800's and both pushed oil. Maybe they've fixed the issue but worth looking into.
1. If you go Pure900 you'll want 1050 injectors and those will support around 900hp. I'm at 1,100hp and needed to jump up to 1300's.
2/4. I would...
...i have already clam around $3000 of work already. Dam oil sensor couldn’t read so Toyota dealer drop the front sub frame to install new oilpump. i don’t ever buy warranty of any kind but BMW does cost a lot for repairs and I’ll keep car for 10 years. I good repair over 10 years Will...
Why was the transmission replaced? At that mileage I'd want to know if the oilpump has been replaced yet as well. The only "value add" I'd say on those mods is ~$1.5-2k for the wheels.
I found the listing and it's being sold at $35,800. Here's a visor.vin search for you to compare prices. I...
