    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    O.K. Here is what I did on 3/29/13: Drag DR38, 17x9 -38 off set, shod with 255 40 BFG g-force Sport Comp 2. All I need do is make small adjustments to the wheel stops so they won't rub on the fender or frame, etc. The fender and liner are stock, (no pulling). The benefit is increasing the...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    I've just purchased a set of Drag, DR38, 17x9, 38 off set, with BF Goodrich g-force Sport Comp 2 in a 255, 40 aspect ratio. All I needed to do was set the wheel stops to use them for my DD. They tuck under the front fender like it was designed for these wheels. The BFG's have round shoulders on...

    Race Ready 7M

    Here is my choice for wheel: A Drag wheel, 17x9 w/a 38 off set, in gun metal gray. I'll be running a BF Goodrich g-force Sport Comp 2 tire for DD: 255 ZR rating. This is what I can afford, at this time... :icon_neut This setup might be what the Supra needs to hold the traction with the current...

    Race Ready 7M

    On track days, I'll pull out the thermo pellet, as has been advised by fellow club racers, to eliminate the restriction. For now it stays as long as I'm DD ing it. Van

Next item we will add to this project will be the oil temp sending unit to send a signal to the oil temp gauge in the cabin. I've...

    Routine maintenance: cleaned off the engine, repaired a coolant leak and emptied the oil catch can. Monday, the RX7 oil cooler gets re-installed with the oil temp sender, hooked up to the oil temp gauge located in the Supra's dash. Whoopie! Pictures are coming after the install is working...
