Emilio, remind Sean not to rip it out but gently remove it. It is yours. AS far as turbo, yes I am upgrading. So many choices possible. As of right now, it looks like a ball bearing billet 67, with custom twin scroll housing and a quick spool valve. She will be an beast...

Emilio, it hasn't worked for a while. Besides it's location is perfect for the Greddy catch can I have ready to slap in there. You can have it if you want it. The car sounded nice before, now she has that nice slightly rough idle, really sounds fantastic.

Tonight Sean and Steve and I got the cams installed. We also installed the low miles coils I picked up on SupraForums.The 2JZ had not been running sine late October and one we turned her over a few times she fired right up. Initially she had a few misses. Once she warmed up, she revs just fine...

Today Steve (Toyotanos) and Sean (funky_monkey58) worked on installing the HKS 272's. All went pretty well until we figured out we need several more shims. Luckily Toyotanos works at a Toyota dealership and can get the shims quickly. I shot a few photos. We also installed Brian Crower springs...

Rob, If the Vikings win today then I will get a lot more interested. Should be a good test if they are ready of not. I think they are. We will listen to the game in garage. We will be working on the 2JZ for several hours. I can get a list from you what I need for sub box. Yes, spring is...

Rob, Sean, Steve and I are meeting tomorrow to install the 272's and new valve springs on the 2jz. We are meeting around 2 pm. You are welcome to come and we could buy the material for the sub box. I realize it is during the Queens game. I placed a $500 deposit down for a chrome moly roll...

Steve, the +103 temperature shift wasn't hard to take. Lucia and I are doing a road trip. We get up in the morning and look for the most interesting things to do. We go where it leads us. Today we are investigating the NW part of the island. There is so much to see it's a shame we only have...

I hope this post is in the correct area, if not please move to proper area. Today my wife Lucia and I had the pleasure or meeting Soruko (Luis) in SW Puerto Rico. We have been here all week escaping the frigid Minnesota weather. Even though we got a bit of rain today we had a great time...

Thanks Alec, It really was a sweet deal on the cams, considering new they are almost $900! I had planned on 264's but what the heck! Sean should be talking about his own car. It is looking very good. Tonight he is in the shop tonight working on wiring. We want to be super ready this spring...

Well my wife, Lucia and I are flying to Puerto Rico for a week in the sun. We are planning on relaxing and we are actually going to meet Luis and his GF. Sean and I have a small Christmas present for him of recycled Supra parts. The latest on my 87 is: Sean pulled out the USDM cams and we...

Rob, Yes, my wife demanded I get rid of the Saab and move ahead with a nicer car. My boss Sam has 3 BMWs and encouraged me to get a 06 awd twin turbo. Well I ddidn't have the 40K they cost, and besides I wanted a 2 door. The stability of this car is amazing even with the Michlin high...

Hey guys I am not sure where to put photos of my new daily driver. I sold the Saab and picked up a sweet driver. I need snow tire though as they are high performance Michelin on her right now. Aren't worth a damn in snow covered roads, but as soon as roads dry off they are sweet...

Sweet looking exhaust Emilio. What kind is it? The hoist in my garage is open when ever your ready to hang her on. Dan

Rob, At this point Sean wants to do his own and I am opting for the less expensive roll bar. $500 for a certified bar isn't too bad in my book. It can be updated at a later date to a full cage. I just know how fast my car is right now and if I drop in a bigger turbo, it will be in the 10s, if...

Rob, I fully understand the savings aspect, however, welding chromoly requires tig welder and you have to get it inspected. Plus, most tig welders don't have a lot of experience with it. We don't have the welder or the bender. My goals are not below 10.0, so this only requires a roll...

PM sent.

Rob, If you run out of things to do, you can come in and help me with my project. I still want to work on the sound system on my 87. :biglaugh: Free beer!!!!!

Lee_MA61 & fixitman04, Sean and I went out to the guys shop last night. Come to find out, I actually had met him on several occasions but didn't know his name. His shop is huge and awesome. There we at least 8 cars inside in various stages of repair. All race cars. He told me that it is legal...

Lee_MA61 & fixitman04, funky_monkey58 and I are meeting with the guy today. I will ask. First of all we want ours done. I also got the name of another guy who does them but this Joe Z. guy has a great reputation. I will ask about possibly doing some type of multipule car discount...

Hey you MN/ND/Wisconsin/Iowa MKIII guys. I am having a custom roll cage built for my 87. The local guy here in St. Cloud is well known and can make a chrome moly or DOM tubing cage that will be approved for 8.5 secs by NHRA. Funky_Monkey 58 and I are both getting one done. We think that if we go...
