This is my luck. not only did it not fix the problem, but but made it worse. Now my car wont start. It will start rev up as much I want to like 4000 RPM then putters down and dies. Then wont start and I have to wait 30 mins to do I again. Another thing when I brought it to the computer store they couldnt tell the ohm of the original resistor. All it had was a 3 R on it so they guessed it was a 3.6 ohm rating. If I post a better pic of the ECU will somebody open their ECU with the same part number and tell me the was the resistance of the resistor. I would greatly appreciate if someone would. The part number of the ECU is 89661-14091. I would ask somebody around where I live to do this, but I own the only supra in the area.

I dont think im gonna need that, sorry, but I think im giving up on the supra. My dads sick of me not having a reliable car and is giving me his 1980 ford 150 4x4. So the supra is gonna sit for awhile till I can figure out what im gonna do with it. I might keep it and wait till I have the money for a 1jz-gte swap. Or I might sell it. I apreacate everybodys help. I just can make sence of whats wrong with it and im sick of dropping every dime I make into it.

Carfanatic89,

I know you are frustrated over the problems you have had. It seems like you are close to solving the problem.

I would like know about the info you have on getting ECU's rebuilt/ refurbished in case I have that problem I will no where top go to get help?

Thank you and I wish the best.

As far as parts go the 4 best places to buy parts from are: Rockauto.com, Horsepowerfreaks.com, partstrain.com and ebay.com (in that order) . Yeah maybe when I get alittle farther in life I might be able to work on the supra. Im only 19 and I have plenty of time to get another supra or fix this one. But at the moment I need a ride that can take me back and forth to work relaibly. My supra is the reason I got fired and had to come back home to live with my parents. Im ready to get the hell out of the house again. lol

But still it eats me up to not know whats wrong with this car. I love my car and I dont wanna quit, but I have to do whats best for my situation.

Oh and one more thing
Check the power steering. If it is not working right, it might not be able to balance or compensate for the added weight.. causing your engine to jump around, then die.
Don't think this is it though, since it only happens when hot, but checking it is not bad.

Ebay is selling your ECu

Also, I don't think the ECU was your problem. And sometimes, when you car has managed to work around a burned out part, its better to leave it. Changing it only handicaps your car back to the way it was before.
Check your circuit board again. It might have burned out your new part again.
