if you want to see the gears, there are clear timing covers on ebay. plus they are two piece so you dont have to take the thermostat housing off to change timing (if you have adjustable gears) or do a timing belt.

i have the air filter its broke

and i have the strut bar but i have a question about the vacuum line i have the schematics or whatever you wanna call them but it doesnt compare to the engine the bvsv only has on port

Not only are u missing the air filter but u are missing the mass air flow sensor as well. Hopefully u actually have it as well, its just not in the picture. I can say one thing though....these cars are fun to work on in my opinion. Me and a friend changed the head gasket on mine and it was a great learning experience. I barely knew anything before that and now i would be able to take the head off myself

i doubt it but does this have anything to do with the mass air flow sensor

looks like a A/F ratio and oil pressure gauge and the safc. not directly connected to the KVAFM.

The car has been bastardized like children like to do. They think they are so much more clever than the professional engineers at Toyota. Like the one piece drive shaft, kids you are going to kill yourself.

if i have the vein pressure converter do i still need the air flow sensor? or could i just hook it off of the turbo?

87supra7mgte · 10-16-2011, 06:29 PM

yes, you need you KVAFM, it measures how much air your engine is taking in before the turbo, and sends a signal to the ECU to tell the injectors how much fuel to use. I would imagine the engine doesn't run correctly at the state those pictures were taken. Mine had a wire that wasn't connected and refused to rev above 3000 RPM, went into limp mode to prevent damage to the engine. your BVSV should have 2 ports, one that comes from the charcoal canister to it and another that runs to a vacuum port on the intake or throttle body, can't remember ATM. and as 87hilux said, get something over those cam gears or risk having to do some real dirty work to fix it. do those 3 things and you should notice a huge difference in the way your supra runs. what kind of boost is it pushin BTW? must be a little bit more than 6psi to need the FPR, looks good on it though!
