Thing is, in the B58/48 case for the Supra, Toyota had a good review and development in the engine to ensure it met their reliability requirements. As that is their default non-M powerplant, if it was a BMW engine it would be the B48 which has a great reputation. TBH, it would probably be preferable to a Subaru FA/FB engine which is not that resilient in comparison.

Can't see anything Might be around next weekend..... -
This.... When boosted you do get the advantages of better manifolds, but from what I've seen a mid-range manifold won't sacrifice you that much power. I'd say max it's 10bhp/lb.ft, less than that vs the TD (which I still class as a upper-mid system). So that means you can get better value for money, or probably free vs the sale of the TD one. Options are: Cobra (doesn't look UEL but is classed as), HKS and Tomei to name a few, or some USA offerings.

Interesting...... https://dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/toyota-scraps-development-of-new-2021-yaris-wrc/ So this is the homologation of a car that will never race...... 😂 It's a shame really, but understandable given the circumstances.

ECU Connect will only work with their dongle. The device itself can be used to flash via USB with a laptop and can do more than the standard OBD Bluetooth devices, plus a better logging rate than you get with standard devices.

Well I use ProECU for looking at logs or the best free data tool is this: http://www.romraider.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=10481 [Nothing to do with the fact I helped develop it.....]

Try Subaru info as I'm fairly sure they are used in multiple engines and like all the parts on this car, they are just re-branded Toyota and given the Toyota part number.

On most tunes you have to feather the throttle when you lift off as otherwise the ECU cuts fuel, so you won't get any noise. @leeky you should be able to do that quite easily, usually a sign of too much fuel

I guess there's nothing wrong with a shameless plug or 2 Trying to get myself back into my music this year, started 2016 with a House/Garage mixtape that some of you may enjoy: http://www.instagram.com/djkodename47 http://www.facebook.com/kodename47

A 60+ minute mix designed to take you on a ride. Full range of feel good and uplifting house to some dark and techy sounds. Designed to make you move and smile in you living room as much as the club. I really enjoyed making this as I haven't recorded a journey mix in some time and I think it flows well. No video on this one.

Video here - created my own intro and more editing and cam changes:
-
More updates - going a little competition mad to give me some decent time out at the moment..... Video here - still experimenting with cameras and editing:
-
Well I haven't updated this in a while. New links and image in OP and a new mix that I have somehow managed to fit around everything else in this crazy time..... Here's a 30 minute uplifting house mix that is also a entry for a Mixmag competition: Or if you like to have a laugh, you can watch below:

Thoughts on Pirelli PZERO Nero Tyres?
Kodename47 replied to Portalfl0w's topic in GT86/BRZ General Chat
The Pirelli doesn't seem to come in stock sizes - I can only see 205 or 225 width in 17 inch. I can't comment on anything as yet, as my 2 month old Goodyear Assy. 5s have 0 miles on them, but in reviews come out well against the Michelins and the Conti PC6. Price wise I managed to get them for the same money as the Falkens, which were my "cheaper" option. -
The only reason that I think you'd have a Supra over an A110 is if you're one of those that needs a big straight 6. TBH it'd be between the Cayman vs A110 if it were that money, perhaps an M2 Competition.

Yes, that's an overpipe

I run 215 45 17 Primacys. Don't see any need to go wider.

Recall issued on cars to have valve springs replaced 2012-2013
Kodename47 replied to Lauren's topic in Mechanical
That's not a good sign as that means it's getting no oil pressure. Is the idle normal? If so, I'd get it back in ASAP. -
Denso ECU, similar to those in Subaru's. D4S is indeed just an indicator of PI/DI/Both. Loads of people in the US get really shitty over IAM changes. Some will occur unless mapped conservatively, this engine is high compression and the setup is known to be overly sensitive. High gear loading can do it as well. Dropping to 0.5 isn't ideal though, especially if you're on V-Power. I take it that as you're running EcuTek you're tuned as well. There is a lot of knock correction going on. Look at the ign correction - fine parameter, any time it's negative it's pulling timing, any time it's positive it's trying to restore the IAM. That's FLKC. FBKC is Knock Correction

The use of the dual injector systems has plenty of headroom as you can adjust the split to give what you need. The DI system can run a lot more fuel as it's high pressure and then the PI used to supplement it, the latter is what uses the injectors and pump that you can replace. A smaller pulley and E85, which requires ~30% more fuel, would be on the limit of the capabilities. On standard fuel that equates to around 350ish BHP IIRC.

General FI questions - Rod strength and supercharger whine
Kodename47 replied to Leeky's topic in GT86/BRZ General Chat
Plenty of people in the states have run higher power turbo on stock internals for some period of time to say that it's possible. In the early days of this platform many seemed to think 4-500whp was where the limits of the engine were, axles are the weak point and were an earlier failure mode. Over time the engine failures came, but certainly not to all it seems. They then rebuild the engines or put in a LSx V8 -
You're doing it wrong I have a similar map on mine and have to do the same. There's something in the ECU that I noticed that if you switch maps, switch off and then switch back on quickly it will default to the mode that it was when switched on previously. So in your case, back to the immobiliser map. This only happens in this situation, which you're doing by switching off after making the change. What you need to do: Turn on ignition (not start car) Change map mode Put foot on clutch Push start button to start engine

You can correct the ECU speed readings - shamefully the same can't be said for the dash. Does allow accurate 0-60/62 readings from datalogs though.
