Thanks for another great year Jeff and all you helped put it together. I actually thought this year was far better hanging out all together than at Winged Warrior.
I thought it made no sense. The diagram I seen online showed the ic piping all the way from the rear to the front. I was thinking how big the turbo has to be then to keep the pressure all that way. Yea I thought it was a silly idea, no way in hell I would do that anyway.
I had someone suggest putting a turbo by the muffler saying the air is cooler back then and then would not an intercooler. I Google and got some information, but was wondering if the guy was just talking out his @ss for a Supra.
That is good to know. I will rethink the 1Jz, if it will fit better than the 2Jz. This is the kind of information I am looking for. I don't need to be "fast and furious" fast, but a daily summer driver that can hold its own.
I will probably go 2JZGTTE.... now I have heard that a good combination would be a 2JZ bottom end with a 1JZ head, would this be correct? Now I just have to get working on a parts list of what else I need. Turbo tach, inter cooler, 550 injectors, R154 manual, any way I am sure I will fine...
I figured it would cost a good 5000+ IJ not to sound dumb but the 6.0L is interesting, what engine is that? I am leaning towards the 2JZGTTE but I have read the second turbo has some clearance issues. Probably keep it stock, and yes put in 550 injectors and new arp head bolts. I already got...
I appreciate the idea of a big V8, but that is not the way I wish to go. If we can get back on subject, I am trying to determine whether to put in a 7M GTE or 1J or 2J GTE, with an R154. Other than the 7M, which one would fit better in a MK3 or is there no difference. Looking for advice so...
I appreciate everything so far, I do wish to stick with 7M, 1J or 2J. The LSI or LSX are probably good engines I dont want all that horse power all the time. I am looking for a turbo setup that I can control the boost. Daily driving low boost, some honda rollerskate pulls up high...
Yes they have experience with 7M's one of the owners had an 88 supra that he rebuilt not to long ago. That was one of the first things I found out and researched that they do know supras, turbos, and the engines that go in them. I feel very confident with them on that subject.
What to do what to do, need input. Right now I have a 7M NA, found a shop that build performance engines about 1 hour away. I was talking to them about building me a 7M turbo that can do 400-500 HP, then they started saying that a 1j or 2j turbo might be better since the stage 1 7M would be...
You know your a Supra owner when (long version) you research the next 3 mods you want to do, years in advance, so you can save up the money for it.
(Short version) money pit.
I say keep it. I have owned the same 87 for the past 18 years. Growing up I always heard my dad and uncle talk about cars they wished they never sold and still had, for me the supra is it, I will never sell it. Every year I try to get something done. Just ask yourself in 10 years will you...
Very strange, driving home and then all of a sudden all 3 light came on. Has anyone experienced this?? Any help of what this could be would be greatly appreciated.
My light indicator came on, thought I had a blown bulb, it happens, but my wife was driving behind me and I ask which bulb is out and she said I have no brake lights. So here is what I have done, of course looked here for any one else that might posted something similar, found nothing. So I...
It looks good, however, the 2 piece design, IMO doesn't look right. It looks like a big crack in the middle. I would pay more in shipping for a one piece.
Sunday was so much better for weather. Watching all the cars dyno was cool. For me... next year cook out. :biglaugh: Jeff I will coordinate it with you. Just the the whole picnic and sitting around and talking with everyone I really enjoy. So how many days until Indy2k11?? :naughty:

Saturday was very cool, and the temp was cold too. 50 degrees, wind 30mph felt like 40. Wasn't yesterday like 75+ wtf ?? Supras awesome to see as always, drag racing very good, drift competition OMG how close they came to the wall was crazy. Great time with friends, all the cars, what more...
