Hi

 

Probably all been asked before but I am a newbie

 

I want to put an induction kit on my n/a Supra

 

2 questions I have are

 

What size dia is the pip required 75mm ? / 3in?

 

There is also a switch in the Air box

 

I noticed a few @ JAE were just left hanging (messy) what does this do is it a air charge switch?

 

If i were to buy a new air box grommet i should be ableto refit into the new connecting pipe

 

not had my car long (fto owner) but on the whole very pleased

 

fuel not bad 24 around town 32-34 on long run (JAE)

 

Had a few probs though

 

o/s rear drive shaft joint clonking ( had driveshaft rec-onded for £120.00)

boot rubbers...

rear shocks clunky ... replaced

n/s mirror won't retract ... need a second hand mirror ... dealer will pay

 

but have noticed front now clunky.. but will get subframe bolts checked / drop links

 

its only done 60k so should not really be worn out

 

it came with a 5in Jap pipe and Toyota body kit ... sounds and looks awesome

+ sprayed some of the panels silver inside (tastefully)

 

How easy is it to fit the later white front indicators as saw a few upgraded at JAE,

I have fitted clear wing repeaters already...

 

cheers great forum

Hello I have an N/A and I got an Injen short Ram Pipe, most people just leave the air temp sensor on the outside, I perhaps would of drilled a hole in the intake pipe to fit the sensor, but decided agains it. Mad Matt got a chip that "fools" the ECU so the sensor can be disposed of, he hid the wires inside the pipe and it looks nice and neat.

 

I would recommend the Injen, as it sounds and looks superb, with its polished alloy pipe.

Well

they look good and sound great :music:

 

I had one on my FTO and it sounded the nuts!! but that was a sweet V6

 

what was odd though on the FTO it made fuel consumtion greatly improved on low throttle

 

I was also going to have made up a heat sheild for it

 

But talking about mpg. :violin:

 

My Supra does approx 24 mg around town and 32 - 34 on long runs :nyah:

roughly 130 miles to 1/4 tank (if i don't really boot it)

 

So not bad really. a little worse than the FTO but not bad for a 3 litre quite impressed and the insurance was £175.00 cheaper than the FTO (£375 Fully comp protected with a Cat 2 immboiliser fitted) who says imports are dear to insure!! you just need to know where too look

Also a TT Supra was only £10.00 more than the fto
