    Anyone done an aluminum driveshaft on the cheap?

    The reason why everyone is so against this is we see threads like this, we tell the op that its a bad idea, then next thing we know is the op does it anyways, and then makes another thread about catashrophic failure. Is it possible? Yes. If its cheaper to make than just buying one it will...

    Welcome Bob. Not too many MK1s on here, but I'm sure someone will be able to help. Before you are done with this project you will probably buy a MK3 for yourself. Oh yeah, and we love pics so dont be shy to post them up. Enjoy your stay here. -Jeff Lewis

    Welcome. I used to be a honda guy too. I rocked several hondas my favorite being my 93 accord coupe. Looking back I see it for what it really was...a great daily driver. Supras can be like crack, so I hope you brought your pipe.

    bypassing the EGR

    http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=EC&P=16 You are making this way harder than is has to be. This is an EGR system (see link above). Everything you dont have you need. Post a thread in the WTB section telling us what you need and chances are you will get...

    Ricer got owned!

    He misread. The driver had a license. His vehicle was uninsured which in massachusetts automatically invalidates your registration making you unregistered/uninsured. Edit: not saying this is ok, just that he was a licensed driver.

    Ricer got owned!

    Cops around here usually aren't down for photo ops. It does suck for the jeep guy, because people are often automatically at fault around here if they are unreg/uninsured. I hope my input prevented that for his sake.

    bypassing the EGR

    Are you going to pay for his rebuild after all the mid throttle detonation does its damage? Didn't think so.... OP: If cost of the JDM ECU or the EGR set up is the same, you might as well get EGR, as you will get better mileage. Despite what some may tell you EGR does not sacrifice power...

    cranks but no fire/clutch petal without pressure.

    Assuming your clutch hydraulic system is working correctly, make sure the slave cylinder piston rod is actually on the clutch fork. Otherwise it will just hyper extend and piss fluid. JDM engine? I really hope you are either using a JDM ecu or installed your old EGR system on the new motor.

    Hardpipes?

    The hard pipes inprove spool time which could widen your powerband, and yes you could gain 60-80 hp with a complete exhaust system, the factory setup is very restrictive. Regardless you need to address maintenence issues like leaking oil before you go questing for power.
