Im wondering the same thing. If I get a set of drag tires for the back, what do I need for the front? why is running my street tires a no no? whats different about running 4 street tires than street in front and slicks in back? is it dangerous or? I have an 88t 5spd with intake, 3" exhaust...

If you are using the same piping same motor and only thing different is the turbo then the only difference in volume would be the turbo housing..... hardly the difference between a bike tire and a truck tire to me. wouldnt the only real difference be the rate at which the 6psi is acheived...

wow thats alot to race. at chi2k6 the last time i went it was only $40 to race and I did like 15 or so runs down the track. My car seems like its in good running order but I dont want to be a couple hours from home and break something on my old ass car so I'd have to bring it down with my truck...

did anybody go?

I ended up just getting collector plates. The guy at the dmv said I would have to send in my title and get a whole new one and that it took a little bit longer. He said unless it looks completely different or has a compltely custom body kit I dont really need hobbyist plates. I could do any...

my kid is due mid july and i'll have 6 weeks off so if i can convince the wife to let me go I'll be there. (fingers crossed)

I was just looking at some pics here - ( http://gallery.sanitylapse.com/v/supra/ ) on installing a bosch bov and I compared it to how mine is hooked up and its completely different. I've had the car for about 3 years and havent really touched anything under the hood. I havent had any major...

holy cow! nice find thanks for the link. he has all kinds of useful pics on there. Ryan

ebay disputes are a joke. I bought an amp for over $600 and it turned out the guy I bought it from used stolen credit cards to buy and sell a bunch of stuff. the cops busted him just before he was going to send my amp out. I never got it and had already paid for it. after trying to contact a...

you could re-use the old ones? im scared of breaking something prying them off or scratching the paint causing rust down the road. how did you go about it? any pictures? thanks, Ryan

nope, no backfiring pops or anything it runs great other than dying easily. I found quite a bit on the subject just had to have the right search terms that were more than 3 letters. im positive I was on the right track with the whole learning fuel curve after pulling the efi fuse. if anybody...

all the seals around the targa were replaced about 4 years ago and are in great shape. I wiped them down with silicone twice since i owned the car (about 3 years) but whenever it rains or wash the car I can hear water sloshing around like its in the targa itself. it doesnt leak at all unless i...

but what i dont get is the car was fine the whole time in town before I built any boost. I pushed in the clutch and held it after every shift for a couple blocks of start and stop and it didnt fall below 800rpm. but as soon as i got on a streight away in the country and hit 4psi or so and...

The other thought I had was maybe plugs are fouled with bad gas and it takes a while for the crap to burn off them? im sure new plugs wouldnt hurt, but I want to use up the gas in the tank before I gunk the new ones up with the old gas. I'm pretty sure no boost leak, but ill check it out. I...

every spring when I get my car out of storage. I change the oil, hook up the battery, pull the efi fuse, crank the car a couple times, put the efi fuse back in, and start it up. I let it run a minute or two and take it around the block a couple times then out in the country a mile or two then...

my name is ryan. ya its been a long time. I been busy lately with lots of OT at work, got married, got a kid on the way and remodeled most of the rooms in my house getting ready for the kid. I doubt ill make it to chi2k8, as i missed last year, but I am gonna do my darndest to get some drag...

I havent been on here in a while, but was wondering if any of you wisconsin guys had hobbyist or collectors plates on thier supra. the dmv site says vehicles need to be emissions tested every two years at time of plate renewal, but it doesnt say anything about hobbyist or collector plates...

I understand you havent had problems with your brand of filters in the past but most parts are made dont just have one or two bad ones, they come in batches of bad ones till either the problem was cought and chances are they didnt find the real start of the problem and some went out anyways. it...

my computer just took a crap because something got fried when the power went out the other day because it wasnt plugged into a grounded outlet. I think the hd's are good, but mobo, possibly processor, and for sure the powersupply are done for. i had a 2.6ghz p4 with windows xp on it. I have no...
