    Bring back the Kaminari 3 piece spoiler???

    TBH the kaminari wing is not my style. I crave a hiro "double" wing which seems to be even rarer for north america and same with the gracer as well many people bite it but yet no one will mass produce it as they can't get ahold of it so they hold their value and rarity. I think the same will...

    1UZ kaido style MKIII build

    Yeah the rendering looks like your tire wear is going to on the sidewalls of all four tires only haha, that reference picture looks more then reasonable especially with JIC control arms and all the goodies that make little camber adjustments like that still practical. but I do love the idea of...

    Alex's 2JZA70 from down under

    do you need to run 18's to clear your brake set-up? btw i like how you had 3 different pairs of rims on it in that short while haha, my car's had the same shoes for about 5 years now. I really want a pair of advan racing v1's I found some too but I have so many other things to buy that come...

    Found an odd picture today:

    the 850I's come with a 5L v12! and a 6 speed, too bad an mkiv still blows them out of the water in every aspect.

    Mk2 sunshade/spoiler on mk3??

    the Regulus kit is dope but the Hiro is best IMO, nicer looking tail mask and the double wing gets me, not to mention just as rare. I'd love to visit japan just to get some of these things. you could prolly pay for your trip afterwards with some FG LOL

    Bringing "Old School" back to life

    that looks pretty awesome! you should put that thing on the dyno after, even with 300rwhp that thing should be quick being fairly light.

    1986 Supra LS (5.3 Vortec) Build Thread

    building an N/A chevy block and is easy and cheaper then turboing anything. I'd say stick with the 5.3 for now you could stroke it but I mean just bolt on parts and a big cam will make it go plenty more then stock. As for the tranny the t56 sounds like a good idea, it will be a lot more fun...

    Mk3 with mk4 front cap???

    that MKIII totally has the decals off the eclipse on the first fast & furious! (yes I like that green colour shame on me haha) TBH I don't think you need a front end conversion, I just think you need a new front bumper.. try shineautoproject.com and find a front lip for the car that will make...

    Mk3 with mk4 front cap???

    I like the z20 swap but an mkIV front end swap.. the pieces of the front clip will be cheap but for the bodywork you could probably get yourself the real deal imported for cheaper then completion of a project like that. Unless you really like the MKIII rear end lol

    The FIRST documented 4l80e 2jz-Mk3 Supra build. "56k beware"

    I can't get over the post 89 spoiler with the pre 89 front bumper and lip. or maybe it's the stock lip with the bomex side skirt but I can say it's one of a kind. as for the transmission I think albert meade was attempting this before but I think he might of gave up on this route but he's gone...

    Options for using z32 calipers?

    obviously you can't use wood when heat is a huge factor in braking. Aluminum would probably be ideal if it was strong enough. Really all you have to do is measure the holes on your old caliper, measure the distance of the new ones and make sure you have your hub centric ring then take it to a...

    What experiences have you had using your brake set-up (pads in specific)

    I always see listings for project mu pad's the teal ones but never seen any reviews I'd like to hear about these.

    Ridiculous 1000HP 7M Street MK3 Build

    I suppose so, but when I think of a welder mig or tig I think of big wire wheels not the teeny toy's you can get for little things. For small stuff they really are handy but why risk blowing breakers and halting projects when it doesn't cost much more to do it right.

    suspension

    My coilovers have the dampening adjustment screw ontop of the tower where the TEMS hats would go. The tool I got with my coilovers was for adjusting the height of the ride. No idea how that would work for shocks and springs though. But yeah sway bars take out a large ammount of body roll, only...

    Ridiculous 1000HP 7M Street MK3 Build

    I'm an electrician and their is no way in hell 110volts could run any welder haha, but the plugs for them are cheap about ~10$ and then you need 10 gauge wire minumum (I usually use the orange jacket stuff for Air Conditioners) and atleast a 40 amp breaker. Putting it in the panel is easy but if...

    suspension

    well if your using shocks and springs instead of coilovers I would say sway bars are the next step. Suspension Technique is the cheapest on the market if you shop around, I found mine at enjuku for cheaper then some of the supra specific stores.
