Haha. No, we just built a new garage, so the room and clutter isn't a problem anymore :-p
We brought our camera with us when we went to go look, but since he decided to buy it right then, we didn't bother taking pictures.
It comes home on Friday, i'll take some pictures when we get it...
So way back in 1972, my father bought himself a factory new, loaded 240z. I do not come into the story here, as I would have been -15 years old. Something or other happened, long story short- he doesn't have it anymore. Of course, he always reminisces about said 240z, says he wants another...
Wow guys, I didn't expect this to generate the amount of discussion it has. Thanks. I'm definitely not looking to make a 500+ hp monster out of my car. Someday, I'd like to see maybe 300 at the wheels, but I'm not dying to get there. The car has done over 150, and that's fast enough for me...
Feel absolutely free to call BS on the 3.2L issue, I did so myself after I actually sat down and did the math (like I said eariler, it would end up being a .118" overbore). I highly doubt it was stroked. It is probably an overbore, by what size I do not know. I don't actually feel awful, i'm...
On one hand, this thread is making me feel awful.:icon_razz
But, I'm also learning. And learning is good.
As wrong and misguided as this guy may have been in describing what was done to it and as retarded as I was not to question it at the time, it has given me over 12000 trouble-free and...
I agree. I've been thinking about doing an intake job for a bit, but I haven't had the time to do any amount of research into it. I also don't know what happened to my fuel cut. It used to cut at just under 12 psi consistently, but I found a break in the hose between the 3000 pipe and the...
I've been looking for a dyno for a few weeks now, but the one I used to know about doesn't seem to exist any more. time to start looking harder.
I wouldn't hold your breath for any respectable numbers, something tells me I'm going to be a little disappointed when I get them back.
Wow. I guess that comes out to about a .118" overbore... that is a little excessive. I used to have all of this in email form, but that email has disappeared along with his email address. I tried calling him a few weeks back but of course his number was disconnected.
Thanks to everyone who...
I'm going to go ahead and say no, as I haven't done it and I don't believe the previous owner knew enough to do it. I have yet to find a good weekend this season to do it.
I haven't been able to get my car to a dyno yet since I bought it, but I was wondering if anyone could give me a ballpark figure on what kind of power I'm making with the following modifications. ( I realize some of these are a little vague, previous owner was vague to me.)
Bored to 3.2L

I'd keep driving. I still have some naive faith that gas prices will at least plateau. I figure that my Supra gets decent mileage (23.6 mpg combined when I filled up yesterday, and I drive about half city, half highway). I make enough now to cover fuel prices, and when I go back to school and...
The '89 I bought had some car club stickers when I bought it.... Needless to say they were scraped off before we even put the new registration sticker on.
I do have a parking permit for RIT on there, but I don't think it counts.
First- '89 Plymouth Reliant... SE
Favorite- Three way tie ('92 Bronco, my '89 Turbo, and the not-working Jag XJ-S), All fun in a different way
Dream- I second the 512TR from above, BMW 850CSi, 911 Turbo, Esprit V8TT... So hard to choose just one
I will preface this by saying that I searched the forums, and found many people with the exact opposite of my problem.
Since I changed my seats (corbeaus back to a set of stock leather seats), I've noticed a few things happening that both anger and confuse me (futurama reference).

Ok, I'm changing my question. I remember reading a post about using RHD seats in an LHD car. Does anyone remember where that post is? If not, can someone give me a brief answer as to whether or not JZA70 seats will fit (with a reasonable amount of work) in an MA70?
I've had my '89 turbo for a little under a year now, and it came with some aftermarket Corbeau seats and 4-point harnesses. I just got back from an 1100 mile road trip to VA and, while the seats are good, they just aren't GT enough for me nor are they very easy to adjust on the fly.
