toyotasupra1980 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 i have been told that the reason why my car acts a little funny when i boot it hard from 80mph then hitting 4000rpm which allows the 2nd turbo to kick, that the plate surrounding the torque converter is loose which explains why it feels like the car is taking a breath, and also whyit rattles when i rev the car. will be getting it tightened up on friday along with stage 1 service, so right now i cant do much hard driving.

dude Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I take it you mean the bolts holding the Converter to the plate are loose!!!!. If so i would not be driving it at all, you may well be elongating the holes in the plate.If the drive plate is loose on the crank then it will be box out time. tell them to remove the converter bolts and put lock tight on them.
