    Has anyone know abot these guys????

    It'll work... probably, anyway. The defect rate on these is pretty high. If you're lucky you'll get one that bolts right up, if not, you'll need to do some work to get everything to align properly. They also use REALLY thin pipe... as in, thin enough I'd be scared of denting it if I dropped a...

    CT26 T-67 Super mega hyper turbo wtf?

    Ya, I've been told the same. However, I've also been told by Jon, former MDC guy, who has actually opened up both, that this is entirely untrue. And I tend to trust him, so...

    would a 57 trim ct26 bolt on to my 7m withouight modifications?

    Negative. It will do exactly the opposite. The theory is that it will allow more top end by sacrificing spool. I seem to recall that it's frowned upon, but check with some actual turbo experts if this sounds like an option you wish to pursue.

    would a 57 trim ct26 bolt on to my 7m withouight modifications?

    There are plenty of upgraded exhaust manifolds. Just not ones that will fit the stock CT26, or anything crammed into it's housings, for that matter. No point, the stock exhaust housing will easily outflow the CT26 hotside.

    There are no upgraded exhaust manifolds for the CT series.

    CT26 T-67 Super mega hyper turbo wtf?

    This has been posted before... and I seem to recall thinking at the time that the description was a complete fabrication. I'd love to see a caliper on the wheel to confirm it's size, but I highly doubt it's the size advertised.

    have anybody had problems with suprasport.com

    Guys, you really should do your research. We have a section for shop reviews: http://www.supramania.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=53 If you go look, you'll see a bunch of other threads complaining. If you'd gone and looked before you ordered... well, you might have your parts by now, because...

    Abandoned Locations

    Wow... the stuff up here that's abandoned is mostly crumbling ruins. We've got some that are entire towns, vanishing into time. Here's a whole page dedicated to 'em. http://www.ghosttowns.com/canada/bc/bc.html I've visited a fair number of these over the years - many of them were in better...

    Quench - anyone care to explain?

    I heard about this factor called quench in engines. However, I've never seen a good explanation of what it is. Even some digging about in Google and our own search engine doesn't turn up much. So... if you understand it, care to take a stab at explaining it to the rest of us?

    LOL, tomorrow will be my 1st car show :-)

    That's a damn fortunate reflection... makes me consider putting ghost flames ON. :)

    LOL, tomorrow will be my 1st car show :-)

    Congrats! Now take some pics anyway. As for ROTM, it's been discontinued several times, and revived several times. It's currently discontinued. What it boils down to is that it's really a lot of work, and most people that step up to the plate buckle like a cheap tent within a month or two...

    Ultimate 6.5" driver for the factory pods??? I think I've got it.

    Update? Sorry to keep bugging you, dude. I'm on the edge of just picking up a set of JL components instead of waiting... but I keep convincing myself that it's worth waiting...

    Stock exhaust manifold?

    Such a manifold would be entirely cosmetic, as the stock manifold can flow far more than any CT, even the highly upgraded CTs.

    Not a chance.

    R154 short shifter

    Which 3? I listed 4... I've tried the C's, the S3, and Nash's. I like Nash's the best, then the S3, then the C's. Actually, I don't like the C's at all, I'd run stock first. I've also tried the SOGI mod, of course, but it's not even in the same league as the rest.

    Power steering fluid or ATF?

    For future thread necro... you should not, under any circumstances, use power steering fluid. The system in the Supra was designed for ATF, so use ATF.

    ATF fluid for power steering?

    If you want to use high performance fluid, use high performance ATF.

    Castrol 20W50 Syntec Blend in 7MGTE been running fine no problem

    It's extremely good oil that can be found reasonably priced. Not much more to say. As for damage, how about taking a sample and sending it off for analysis? That will tell you what's going on inside your engine.

    Celsius Climate Control Panel 89+

    Ours read in Celsius, sure, but as I recall the plugs on the back are entirely different. I know that we can't use the RHD units that come over from Japan in half cuts.
