good to hear nothings damaged.

islandsupra 03-12-2004 09:07 AM

Yeah I hope not. I just drove it a short distance to my gf house. There was gravel and shit coming off of the wheels. Didn't really care about the car once I got there, I just wanted to see her.

So just got up, I'm gonna go out and clean it all off and check everything out. Hopefully it did nothing. WHat a dumb move though... I suggest that you DON'T speed up when it's raining at night and you are getting tired (obviously). Somehow I didn't think of that at the time though, just wanted to get home.

Will the engine bay wiring harness (ecu to engine) from an '89 turbo supra work for my '87? Im not having much luck finding a harness here. They are all either automatic trans or 89 and 90's. This one is turbo and 5 speed just like my car, i just dont know what they changed from 87 to 90 in the engine bay wiring. I think it will work wont it?

holy christ, so thats what it feels like to have no backpressure.....

i was getting boost at like 2000 rpm without even hitting the gas much. not to mention it sounds like a out of tune tractor.

owell, toby my exhaust is off, so maybe you can come get it sunday or next week or something, im gonna be kinda busy this weekend

heres your exhaust :p i didnt bother cleaning it or anything, pretty ugly as is, maybe some high temp paint and a bit of buffing on the tips, and its good to go.

Paradox 03-14-2004 04:35 PM

hmmmm, hopefully that'll work out fine.

*waits for more beta testers to give a opinion*

islandsupra 03-14-2004 05:13 PM

I think that it looks pretty good. I read about it a while ago, seems like a much better (cheaper) alternative to Lexus AFM.
Hopefully it works out good for the testers, it'll definetly be on my list somewhere down the road. It'll be cool when Shawndude gets his and gives his results, man that guy does not miss anything in his explanations!! Hopefully everything works as expected.

Paradox 03-14-2004 08:42 PM

this is like a 700$ investment. and atleast fluidlyne is a well known company.

i was once screwed by defcon. and also screwed by MVP with the turbo "kit". i think im going to stay with well known, high selling companies from now on.
