From what I remember, they were just under 700hp for the Group A, 1000cc injectors, and still running a version of the CT26... :) There is a link somewhere that covers the car, and the oil pan etc. I'd guess with that cam setup, it's got quite the idle, and sounds pretty mean running too.

Re: group a's gpa rebuild Thanks, I'd just like to see your GroupA motor make 1000rwhp :) and these oil mods are not too difficult to do while the engine is out, but pretty much impossible in the car. (Best option there is a spin on adapter to route oil to your Mocal cooler and external...

Jeff asked my question. What camber kit? LOL (This is not a strut to knuckle suspension design, but does use struts... ) You can move the strut around all you want, and not change camber one degree. Camber on the Supra is set by cams on the lower control arms. (Also caster.) I don't...

Grim is right, your dealing with many variables here. Weight is one. Diameter of that weight is another. Total rolling diameter of the finished wheel/tire combo is yet again another. I'm running SSR Comp's in Anthracite, they are about 16lbs each for the wheel, and Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3...

Re: group a's gpa rebuild This is what I did to improve on the basic 7M oil system. (Turbo pump, machined to accept a BSP 20mm 90 fitting to AN10 across to another BSP20/AN10 at the rail.) Plugged the hole going to the normal filter spin on area, used the NA pressure port casting area to fit...

I have run Toulene, and it seems to work great. You can get it down for about 5.00 per gal if you buy 55 gal drums of it at this time. (Price has sure gone up, it was about 1/5 of that price two years ago.) Xylene is also a fuel. (Added to gas that is.) Toulene is like 114 octane...

I like the stock look of the HKS 75mm turbo exhaust. It might be somewhat restrictive, but can't be too bad. (420ish at 18psi on a T4 bolt on turbo.) It is however very nice and quiet. If you want stealth, the HKS 75mm deal is the best way to go. (Looks factory untill you see the size of...

My filter is on the right apron, just beside the AFM location and infront of where I have my Greddy E-01 controller mounted. It's a inline filter, has two 90 degree AN10 fittings attached, and the lines come up from the engine over the rail, and then go back on the other side to the cooler...

SCC since Colman is gone, has lost most of my intrest. Jacot is not the editor Colman was. That being said, the high HP Supra's are interesting reads, and the Blach madness is understandable. Power is additictive for sure. Slightly OT, but has anyone else noticed that Turbo magazine is no...

Pushing on the push lock hose, is difficult sometimes. You need a vice with some "soft" jaws in there, and firmly mount the fitting. Then with both hands, push the hose onto the fitting untill it's snug down into the seat area. (Plastic ring.) I just did many AN fittings, and they can be a...

At minimum, you need to close off the area from the grille opening to the lower core support tie bar. Best is like the stocker that goes back to the crossmember and around the oil pan slightly. This keeps air from dumping down under the car, especially at speed. In traffic, it also keeps your...

Best choice is you last one. The insurance company does not care if you don't spend the money on the car. It's your money, you can do what you want with it. However, they do have a duty to the leinholder to give them the money BECAUSE THEY OWN THE CAR. Untill you pay it off, you don't own the...

No, the rear mounted turbo setup I was talking about is being used on F body cars at this time. There are a few others, but basicly they put the turbo in the rear of the vehicle, and route pipes up front to feed the motor. I've seen this done on GM cars, using the AFM in a blow through...

Eriol is right on the money. If your rear end, or transmission is clanking now, and it was mostly your two piece DS before, well they are parts that were going to fail anway. Also the stress on U-Joints is mostly when they are at extreme angles. Since our only movement comes from the...

A other possible option is the "street racing" class. It would need to be open to any Supra. Any mods are fine. It is heads up racing. Light goes green, and you go. Whoever wins crosses the line first. There are no eliminations. You can run as much as you want. Placing bets is...

I just started to use what we think is a JDM C's shifter. What's strange, is two seperate used JDM transmissions came with these on them, and one has two pins locating the shifter, and the other only has one. The one with two pins is much better, and the other that I'm using works fine, but is...

Sounds like the MK4 guys are going to have fun. Stock turbo's. (MK4 only.) The class with solid axles? (I think there are a few MK2's with this mod, but I don't suppose they are coming to SILV.) I know of Zero MK3's with a solid rear axle. Street 8 and Quick 8 might apply to a few...

We have a great turbo mounting postion. Where the rear muffler goes. (Just takes some creative oil routing and a scavange pump to return it to the pan, but lag with a V8 is not a problem, and you can run a larger turbo, like a GT40 and still have tons of off the line tourqe with a top end that...

I did this years ago. Works great. I have both the IC pipe and the intake pipe running through where the stock airbox snorkle hole was. (I've since enlarged it to allow both a 2.5" IC pipe and 3" intake pipe pass.) Run with the lower plastic in place. It keeps water out of the filter for the...

Detonation and/or pre-ignition kills the motors. Tuning is the key as noted by many. Stronger forged stuff just gives you a wider margin for error, and can hold up to higher ultimate power levels when your state of tune is correct. (But will fail just as easy if your tune is wrong at...
