Super Monitor - Page 2

suprra_girl · 07-17-2006, 05:52 AM

i don't think anywhere else in the world got supermonitors, only the states i think

we didn't get them here altho it'd be cool to have one
i believe that even if your 87/88 didn't have the supermonitor stock i think there is the wiring harness still behind the dash so you can install it if you wish

and the only ppl posting are ppl with the information that you requested, so make up your mind, you want any ppl to post opinions/information or just ppl with experience with the supermonitor (your post has been edited accordingly)

does anyone know if the 86.5 has the harness for it? are you lumping 86.5 in with 87/88, or is there really that much of a difference from 86.5 to 87?

ALL 86.5-88 Supra's have the "possibility" of having the wiring for it...but not all do. My 86.5 did not have it but my 88 does.

If you pull off the panel that goes under the steering column, and look up under there, you will either see a 2inch long connector thats not plugged into anything, or you dont have the wiring for it. It takes less than 5 minutes to find out.

when i had my origonal throttle position sensor i would go to a max miladge of 17.1 now whith the new tps when crusing at 30mph in 5th ill get 28.2 and when i really get on it ill get 16. Whith the new tps the monitor is constently changing ( not dramaticly and wild) it actualy is displaying accuret mpg

So the timer on there is not a turbo timer? I just purchased a 87 Supra Turbo a week ago and just discovered the supemonitor 2 days ago. SMH I had an 88 non turbo and it didn't have that. I am stoked about this accessory and can't wait to put it to use.

No, the timer is just a trip timer.... (see: in-dash egg timer).
