The only time you would notice it is if your driving past cars and giving some gas. It sounds like it's coming from the turbo tho. Thank you though. I'll try to post a video as soon as possible
Hi , The symptoms you have described point to an over-advanced ignition = " pinking " , this only happens when the engine is under load / acceleration with an open throttle .
Questions? , Does the noise go away when the throttle is closed off ? , Has the ignition been reset recently ? .
If this IS the case , retard the ignition slightly .
This link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_knocking to Wikipedia refers to this condition .
Also check your knock sensor .
Edit addition : Also check this http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Librar...px?S=Main&P=44 Number 12 - Knock sensor
input signals terminal connections .
