supra problems weird sounds please help
 
ok well i have been a proud owner of a 1987 toyota supra for about 2 an a half months now the following mods it has is a new hks non catback exauhst 3" in diameter all the way, new synchros on the tranny, engine rebuilt about 20k ago turbo running at about to 11-12 psi


well on to the weird sounds that i am receving from my car well i was being a dick to my car the other day and well i was going about 55-60 mph and hit about 8 pot holes in a rown going about that speed and so i just litterally stomped on my brakes to where i was just sliding on the rocks well then atfer that the car was fine but then when i parked it to take a break for a few i went back to it and starte dit back up and now when i put my car into reverse and move it backwards i can here like this sound coming from what sounds like the front right of the engine bay and it sounds like air being pushed out like a wooshing sound but no squealing or anyhting like that and the other problem i have is that sometimes when i go into my first gear to get moving my car will sometimes jerk and or stuter when it gets mvoing
well if you guys would have any information to help me out on this problem itwould be really appreciated

That sound maybe an exhaust leak. Are you getting a check engine Light?

Donovan 05-12-2007 03:07 AM

no i have no check engine light at all all this just strted happning all of the sudden when i was being hard on it that one day

Number_Sixx 05-12-2007 03:28 AM

sounds like boost leaking from the intercooler plumbing. Check all plumbing connections. And please don't treat the Supra like that again dude.

Donovan 05-12-2007 03:31 AM

alright ill make sure to check that and thanks for your help but i was wondering when i was finished cleaning out my engine bay i was being dumb and overlooked that i hadnt plugged one of my spark plugs back in and the car ran for about 5 minutes til i remebered is that going to have any harsh effects on my car and the reason it was taken out is cause water got down into that area and i was trying to get most of it out cause my car was acting horrible when it got own in there the was just putting when i pushed the gas and it felt like lots of power was being lost

ohhh.......that will cause a misfire. Nah it will not affect the engine in a negative way, jus that particular cylinder is not getting any spark to make power and the other 5 cylinders are somewhat under undue strain. .Yeah you will feel some power lost and the car behaves really sluggish and sounds awful.

alright well thanks for you rlp i really appreciate it ill make sure to check the intercooler piping though i hope thats what it is but now all i got to do is figure out what up with my clutch or my tranny

ummmmmm........your car is automatic or stick shift?? reason I ask is because you mentioned both clutch and tranny so I dunno which is which if you know what I mean......LOL. But yeh state the problems with the tranny and I will see if I can be of help.

Donovan 05-12-2007 03:53 AM

ok well it is a manul 5spd and the type of clutch i have is an ACT racing clutch well after i had abused my car say when i go into reverse or into first and get the car to startmoving it will make like a pop sound right when it moves and sometimes it feels like it will struggle to get going

is it a 4 puck or 6 puck clutch?? sprung or solid hub??
man those racing clutches are hard on gearboxes, oh btw did you break in the clutch before pressuring the car hard??

Donovan 05-12-2007 04:35 AM

i think its a 6 puck and i think its spring its a guess im not sure but the guy before me had it i dont know if he boke it in cause i dodnt take time and or have ime to wokr it in

Number_Sixx 05-12-2007 04:46 AM

ok.......so you changed the synchros already so I am guessing you don't have an issue with gear changing. Now as for the popping sound when you try to move off.......the only thing I can think of is that one of the plates on the hub is cracked.......I am referring to the racing clutch. Yes they can break, I have seen that happened many times. People put racing clutches in street cars and have catastrophic results. But that is one area you can check out if the problem still persists. Can you post some pics of your Supra donovan??

Donovan 05-12-2007 06:32 AM

if i am correct it is a 6 puck and it is spring loaded im am so sorry for how i am wrting right now if you can can you please right me right now and i will right you back tommorow i am niot really in the condition right now to right you any messages i am o sorry i feel reely stupid right now

Donovan 05-12-2007 06:34 AM
