    Official 2012 PacNW Supra Nationals Thread

    Who's that political comedian guy with the "New Rules" segment? Only registered guests are allowed to bitch about the show. ;)

    The Mistress

    It's pretty simple... pull the three nuts, take off the ring. Just don't DRIVE it that way, bad things (tm) will happen!

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Took these off: Ground them down with a wire wheel, then sanded them, and sent them off the be painted again. When they came back, I decided to put on some more of the parts that have warmed up on the bits bin shelf for long enough. Throttle cable bracket and wind shield wiper arms...

    Stock left speaker has no power

    If he's willing to go used, he could probably get the full meal deal. But for under $500, I think he could get the 6.5s in the front, which will be ok until he can scrape up another batch of coin and add the sub.

    ct26 60-1 vs turbonetics 60-1

    With a wideband AFR gauge, preferably.

    Stock left speaker has no power

    For that budget, I'd scrap the amps / subwoofer portion. I would, however, buy some quality RCA cables and speaker wire, run them from the deck location to the hatch while you have everything apart. The extra cost now isn't much, and the savings in blood sweat and tears later when you want to...

    Ultra High Performance Summer or All Season? Kumho Ecsta SPT and ASX vs others

    Really? Which ones have you used that caused such a wide, sweeping, and, ahem, completely inaccurate statement?

    Stock left speaker has no power

    The problem with six speaker systems is the signal timing. The speed of sound is NOT instant, so the sound from a speaker right next to your ear arrives before the sound from a speaker in the back of the car. Many modern aftermarket systems have methods of dealing with this, by adding delays -...

    interior question

    FYI, I paid $1200 for a shadow grey interior in mint condition without the front seats. And I picked it up. No carpet, steering column, steering wheel, and missing a few other small bits, like access doors and plastic plugs, had to find all that on my own. The sun visors are faded, too.

    Stock left speaker has no power

    Did you put those in the rear seat locations, or the hatch locations?

    Pulled some bits out of the spares bin, sanded them down, and sent them off to be painted.

    Probably be a lot more fun with a helmet so you could still breathe. Probably would have saved her head from a nasty bonk, too. 'Course, I'm not sure about wearing a full face helmet in the climate down there.

    Stock left speaker has no power

    You'll have to wait until my Bilsteins are back from their rebuild before I start taking apart the interior on the hatch again... if then!

    Stock left speaker has no power

    To be honest, I'd junk them both. The speakers in the hatch area are useless, all they do is make your music sound like mud. I put good speakers in the rear seat locations, and removed the hatch ones entirely.

    I want to go here.

    Sad thing... I've been there twice, but I didn't know about the runway approach until later, so I didn't make a trip out to watch this in person.

    DIvorced downpipe/fuel cut woes

    Porting out the wastegate and hole in the ddp for it might help with the creep. Still running the stock turbo? You might also have a leak somewhere between the turbo and the intake manifold, which would make you hit boost cut early.

    safe boost for 60-1

    Depends on a lot of other things. What fuel are you running, what size injectors, intercooler, IC pipes, what are you using to adjust your fuel, etc, etc. Without all the background, we shouldn't even hazard a guess. Even *with* all the background information, the proper answer is to put it...
