Hey guys,

Looking to get my limiter fitted before the next DECA but am unsure where to go as the instructions are entirely in Japanese, and it would probably require someone who knows the Supra wiring loom.

Also I'm aware this does NOTHING for my car, if anything probably puts the engine at more risk, but f**k it. I want to go to a couple of DECAs with a straight pipe, ignition cut and make some noise. After a few events I'll pull it out and sell it.

Cheers.

Come on it can't be that bad for the car. From what I've read its not worse than bouncing the limiter off the normal fuel cut (which admittedly is pretty bad anyway). I'm not going to sit there bouncing for shits and giggles, it'll just be when I hit the limiter as we all do at DECA, only this time with noise and flames.

Plus its a healthy stock NA 2JZ, nearly impossible to break one of those.

P.S. Thanks for the info on Edge, I'll call them tomorrow.

no, it's not the same as bouncing off the stock limiter at all. there are MANY people that have lost motors due to these things

it's an ignition cut limiter, hence the bangs.

the main cause of engine failure is a dead oil pump from the vibrations caused by the bangbangbang, which as you can imagine is not the best thing to happen while you are redlining it.

Fair enough, thanks for the warning. I always assumed the problems came from unburnt fuel passing through a white hot turbo and potentially detonating in there. Meaning my NA would be relatively safe from that sort of problem.

Shame though, would've been a lot of fun.

Do you? im yet to see any, spend more time with the car parked at a kabab shop with the autosalon crowed

Who the f**k are you? Since I don't know you and you drive old pieces of shit your comments mean nothing to me :)

Not 100% True a friend with r31 Stock as a rock sept for a upgraded clutch and welded Diff and a Bee-r got 5mph Better using it for flat shifting then his old PB other then that it prob useless i would have gone with the Gizzmo launch control that does the same things there is a vid on fullboost somewhere of my old evo 6 running it

Well you don't know me. And never seen me drive. Sonit would be quite clear that you haven't seen shit. My car is parked at bp for no more then 10 minutes till we fuel up and leave and meet up with mates. Are you one of those guys that rocks up on a Friday night alone and goes driving up and down

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
