    How much power can drivetrain hold ? Comp stage 4 ?

    hahahaa the purple does look fancy but thats a dam good reason to try the spec out can't go wrong there. it is nice that you don't have to ship to and from japan to get replacement parts to like the exedy or osgiken. im guessing you have the etrim just by looking over what they have available...

    Bolt on Big Brake Kit For around 300$.

    nice find!!! looks like a much better option than the cobra brakes that only have two 42mm pistons iirc that don't end up making that much more braking force than stock. and these look like the pad covers more of the rotor too. what hub centric rings work for sure? and it looks like you use the...

    Anybody did a 7mgte swap on toyota pickup?

    what engine mounts and mount brackets are you using? cause with the combination of the 22re stock rubber mounts plus the mk2 supra engine mount brackets the firewall shouldn't need to be cut. just hammered out. and its mainly by the bell housing. we actually drilled holes in the cab to get the...

    Anybody did a 7mgte swap on toyota pickup?

    like i said you have to modify the firewall and trans tunnel to leave the body stock height or do the body lift and save all the headach plus the radiator is easier along with other stuff i can't think of this second lol. with the 1.5" body lift like i did you dont have to extend anything. the...

    How much power can drivetrain hold ? Comp stage 4 ?

    heres my advise from my experience. if you plan on staying under 450whp/450wtq the driftmotion 6 puck will do. ive had one in my car for years now and it holds fine at low 400's. when i did have issues with it slipping was at drags running race gas and 20psi. the heat from brake standing to heat...

    Looking for new tires

    yeah i agree you have to sacrafic tread wear for grip but the r888 are a little extreme for the op if you ask me. And r compounds will heat cycle out and turn into a rock if you don't used them up sooner than later. ive never really hammered on my tq's on the street but i never noticed them to...

    Looking for new tires

    ive run a hand full of the extreme performance tires and ill say any of the 200tw tires will hook 500whp cars up on dry pavement. i currently have 255/40/17 re11a's all around and i like them a lot. they do well in rain and are pretty fast. my next set im going for the rs3's but if you want the...

    I just want a quick reliable supra... to much to ask?

    throw the 7m in the garbage and just do a 2jzge-t swap on 7m electronics. my 200k+ 2jzge has been way more reliable and handled abuse without rodknocking or blowing a hg than any 7m ive had and i have one in my truck but i leave it at stock boost or 10psi if i want a little more power on stock...

    Anybody did a 7mgte swap on toyota pickup?

    ive done two of them. first the one in my 90 extended cab with a stock 7mgte then in my buddies regular cab i think its a 94 with a built motor, air to water, 58mm, and external wg setup. a short summary is that if you want to do it body lift the truck. i bought a parts truck when i did my that...

    Just a little Big Brake project

    dam too bad i'll have bought the arz kit by the time they're available it looks like oh well they look cooler lol. and all the pads at the parts store suck im a fan of porterfield ive had a set on my car forever and they make the stock brakes perform much better. good pads are very important...

    Just a little Big Brake project

    400hp suspension upgrades

    actually that happened a couple years ago. it used to be a 140tw tire but they changed the minimum tw for street tire class to 200tw so hankook relabled the rs3 but it was the same tire. then last year they came out with a new compound for the tire but it has the exact some tread pattern. that...

    400hp suspension upgrades

    oh yeah reinforcing the subframe would be a good idea thats something i forgot. i broke two before finally doing it and its been good since. i made a thread about it along with others so you can get an idea of how to go about it. as far as tires i said the hankook rs3 as they are the best...

    400hp suspension upgrades

    heres my recommendation for what you should do for the rear depending on the mileage of your car id leave the bushings alone unless they're actually damaged or the eccentric bolts are seized. the subframe bushing id leave stock too. i have the beech subframe bushing and they're actually just...

    Polyurethane subframe bushings for the MA70 Supra

    thats cool you still offer these since we don't have many options for subframe bushings! it seems like most builds ive seen with them people go with the red. im guessing thats the best compromise for handling and comfort. id like to get a set sometime in the future. last time i broke my subframe...
