  1. 650cc high imp saturation injectors are not good @ idle and low revs, that's why O.E. mostly go to low imp peak and hold for over 500cc. Larger size high imp are costly too, at the end of the day low imp is a proper job and costs less and it's only 7 wires to play with to fit a resistor pack. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?233707-Project-Supracharger&p=3488364&viewfull=1#post3488364
  2. Buy some 550cc high impedance injectors then.
  3. Today I planned a visit to an Engineer or two to get a 5 minute job done and another to the aluminium welder as final preparations for tomorrows long-awaited access to the Workshop, but it's raining so hard I'm not sure I dare drive anywhere with the sun-roof bonnet? Tuesday and Wednesday is not as bad, but is forecast to be too wet and windy to work on it outside. Cinderella will be lucky to run at the Jap Show Finale Ball now.
  4. Two of the three wires wrong on the MAP sensor would hold the injectors wide open.
  5. I could see the writing on the wall for that tat boost controller. The blat went quite well considering I don't have first gear at the mo? I think the Throttle Position Sensor voltage has settled in a bit causing the Suprastick to ignore first gear. I hope you can find an old laptop with Windows 98 and Hyperterminal because it's a wind-up having to go and bother Steve every time a button needs pressing.
  6. Check you have wired the MAP sensor correctly. Then check if Parcels-To-Go will deliver the girls?
  7. I say tomatoes and you say tomato's.
  8. Silver one looks like it's had an electric motor conversion?

  10. I can't get in the Workshop, but I can get at the Workshop and my Supra Treasures are stashed outside. Applying middle of the field technology, with the tools in the back of my supercharged Supra van, I have rebuilt a straight nose and prepared a distributor. Autopsy of the brand new supercharger one carnage Recycled as a shaft removal jig A piece of hard-wood and a clump or two with a lump-hammer later and it looks like the bent new one got hot The straight shaft from old charger two gets a new home with younger friends from charger one Supercharger three, Old Rudolf, is to get a shiny nose and the replacement distributor has a new threaded hole to match the 4Runner cap The oil in the new charger was 'sweet' but the stuff from the old one stinks enough to pole-axe you Job jobbed and both ready for swapping in, just before the next deluge and in time to go for a pint of ale and Sunday roast. I hope I didn't get any of that stuff on my trousers?
  11. That explains why it's not on the list then. Go back to post 2, 8 & 48, do not pass Go and do not collect £200.
  12. Looks like Bambi's not your Dad. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?270657-MOT-dickthippery&p=3414578&viewfull=1#post3414578
  13. I didn't find that on the list? That could throw a Spaniard into the works and make Bambi your Dad. I'll go and sniff out the list.
  14. Are they the Durex one's?
  15. If that's on the list, don't let on.
  16. The N/A 2JZA80-GE engine code is grey import only, consequently, is not on the list and pre 95 the full cat test is not required. The T.T. 2JZA80-GTE engine code is the same in a J spec as a U.K. spec, consequently, is on the list and whatever date of manufacture is subject to a full cat test.
  17. Fair enough, if it was that efficient on here, there would be less Old Wives Tales to prattle on about.
  18. Ben, You're our MOT man on the inside, post it up in one sentence with the pretty flow-chart and Bob might be you're Dad.
  19. It already is, but it happens to be in a post that's more than a sentence long which appears to be a challenge beyond the focus of some.
  20. That's a problem VOSA have with many 'Testing Monkey's', they have to keep inspecting the stations to try and keep them applying the written regulations and not the one's they've dreamed for themselves. Just show them the page they were not bright enough to find in their own workbook and all will be fine.
  21. Could be a dicky crank position sensor in the distributor.
  22. The weather was kind today, allowing a good day's tinkering and I've tidied up a load of little jobs. The car now has stealth squirter's and the bonnet is a perfect fit, the pipe runs are all tidy and I've made up and fitted a re-routed H.T. king lead to make space for the new idler bracket and the bay wiring is finalised except for the water/meth and HHO wires in the corner of the bulk-head. Found the air leak at last, the water/meth injection nozzle swively bits needed a nip. That leaves just three Gremlins to evict. Supercharger nose swap and distributor swap will be simple enough, but the new idler-bracket will be a challenge.
