New supra owner (with a few questions)

manrique112 · 03-31-2011, 09:16 PM

I bought a manual and I am doing a search on what exactly was done to this car. I will post pictures of the engine. I looked at the vin # and the car does have a turbo engine, intake is NOT a Y shaped. but the throttle and tps is of a non-turbo supra.

How'd you determine it's a N/A throttle body? The 7M-GE's throttle body from the MKIII Supra doesn't fit and I'm certain the throttle body from the 7M-GE from the Cressida doesn't fit either. The TPS would be fine though as long as tabs which mate with the throttle body line up... there was a mid year change where those were rotated 90? and that's not compatible, but that's not a GE or GTE thing.

Post the part numbers off of the throttle body and off of the TPS please. BTW, the MKIII 7M-GE's TB is LONG.

Thank you gents. Here are a couple of pictures of the car. As I mention I'm not a Supra expert so want to know if the engine and parts are stock..specially the thrttle body and Tps. The car according to vin is a 1990 supra turbo.

so did you repair the vacuum lines and redo your diagnostic codes?

Looks like the stock throttle body to me.... Who told you otherwise? Post the part numbers already... sheesh.

I did some manual reading so i now know somethings about my supra. In regards to the idle problem, I bought a new TPS and it fixed the problem. My main concern now is the car stalling without notice. One of the codes shows a bad AFM.. what are the symptoms of a bad afm?. want to make sure before I make a costy purchase.
