Washers are a very poor way to confirm that your wheel is true. Were you able to check this trueness before the brake install with the wheels installed properly? Mine are flush front and rear, I think that looks great, as long as it doesn't touch the fenders too bad.

Yes, I agree with everyone else. DONT grind the caliper. Those are old GN calipers, they were just regular cast calipers, that stiffening rib is VERY functional. All the newer calipers are forged, or the billet is forged then machined, either way those older calipers are not near as strong...

Hey Bryan, can you re-activate a thread for me? Its in my section and its too old for me to post to it. Thanks Andy Z

Tell him "THATS GREAT!!! Because you have a cousin in Montana that can come over and take a look at it TODAY!!! Ask if he will give you his exact address and the address of the car."

You hit the nail on the head, thats exactly what I was thinking. But you should see what Im thinking. Again, you are right on target.

I found that link, it was stickied at SF DUHHH. It was Veilside VS Virtual works. http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=166026

Got a link?

I am considering making a FFIM, the main problem I see here is that everybody wants something different. I don't roll that way, Im all for cool custom parts, but I cant make 10 different configurations. That being said I am not opposed to making more than one intake manifold design available I...

I was in a hurry with one of my motors, I just did a garage/ghetto (stone hone) rebuild (in the vehicle, this was the Z) job and did the motoman route and 3 cylinders were 96% and above, the other 3 were below 70% I have never had a good motor where any of them were above 92~93% leak down...

Yea I have been kicking around the idea for a while. But you know me, when I do, do it it will be as right as I can make it. The problem is everyone wants something different. Some want long runner, some want short runner, some want a stock throttle body, some want a huge throttle body. Some...

Dave I had to go back like 4 pages to find any progress on the supe. Is this the only thing keeping you from assembling the car? Is it going to bum you out when I make a FFIM and begin selling them? I suggest you weld a simple tube to the top of your cut-off upper intake and just wait for...

My kit weighs quite a bit less than the stock kit does already Yea I really couldn't figure that post out either but I figured I would give a stab at answering it. Thanks for the compliments, I have only sold about 40 sets in over a dozen countries in less than 2 years. LOL Yea that is odd.

A spark event becomes exponentially much less stable as the pressure goes up. Closing the gap makes the event much more likely. As the pressure goes up colder plugs will be required. Pardon my late response, I hit submit and noticed 5 pages, this was from the first page.

Thats what I thought. 3K for 13" front brakes or $2400 for 14inch front brakes. OR $1200 for 13" front brakes and less than $1700 for rears. OR 6 Piston 13" front brakes. All that and my competition still has a stock icon sized image and I wonder if the guy that picks up the...

I have installed 3 different Cometic mhg's they all had the rivet. I know you guys will all poo poo me but I have reused MHG's more than once and know a couple of others that have also, and always had good results. If you are the one to do the R&R on the head, I would re-use the used MHG and...

Yea I guess I could. Thanks

from the man with a 10 second 7M supra and a turbo charged 11:1 compression motor. LOL:biglaugh: IM nuts ?!?!? Hehe. I think thats a compliment?!?! At least I will take it as one. No clutch what so ever, that was all boost. And a little worn tires. :evil2: I replaced them this weekend...

Ok now that I have new tires, I wont be able to do this for a while. I finally got that video converted, with the speedo shown. Click here to watch video. Heres another

These 18's were a smaller rolling diameter than my 275/45/17's, I really havent messed with the ride height much, I still dont have coilovers yet, Im working on that.

YES!!! and not just any 18", I went thru a few that didn't fit before we found this one that did. I will make a template for these too so you can shop for wheels accordingly.
