Ok if you didnt see my "noobie post" I have a 90 supra turbo w/ 5 speed tranny...

**1st question**
I almost have to let my clutch out all the way till it engauges 1st gear. Is this normal? The reason why I ask this is because my other 5 speed car (98 neon) I had to barely let the clutch out and it would start moving.

**2nd question**
Since I have a turbo do I need to let my Supra idle for xx amount of seconds before shutting the supra off? Ive seen someone with a SRT-4 do this with his. If so, how long should I let it idle?

I found out the answer to my turbo question....

Taken from: Here

After high-speed or extended driving etc., requiring a heavy engine load, the engine shoul dbe allowed to idle as shown in the chart, before turning it off.

Driving condition and required idling time.

NOTICE:

your research skills were faster than my reply ;)

and also sounds like your clutch plate is gone... time for a new one


my suggestion... get a new clutch on the weekend :)

Yeah, but be careful, I just had my clutch replaced and they did an awful job, it's slipping all over the place and I'm babying my car :(

Back to the shop it goes...

Check your pedal adjustment first though, it might be that...
