Nice Chris! bimmers ftw! I love my E30. If you have to go with an E36, an "M" is the only to go! ;)

First I found what the stock one was by covering all the openings, such as the TB, ISC, etc openings with sheets of gasket material (example: put the gasket material between the TB and plenum and bolt it down). Then filled the plenum with water up to where the runners meet the plenum, it has...

Old pics... 17x9 27mm offset, running 255 40 17 on all four corners...

Look at my build thread on the first page. Not a RR, but you can get some ideas. Basically you just have to play around with some pipe and couplers until you find what works for you ;)

Great, thanks!

Thanks JJ, you're always a big help. Just to clarify, vac is before the throttle plate,(as in no vac at idle) correct?

**This is NOT a discussion on why or not to run EGR, all that has been discussed in detail before.** Ok as some of you already know, I've been running a FFIM for some time now. But the EGR was removed and now I am getting the EGR back together. I have all the parts new from toyota, and have...

Thanks for the info Chris! I asked Ian to take a look and he said it looks ok. So I did the head yesterday, and it only took about 1/3 the time, being aluminum and all (; As for the injectors, I figured that was the case Chris, I guess I'm in the market for some new stock ones. Toyo wanted...

I'll jump in as I know first hand not to go with JARCO. I'm glad shaeff pointed that out for you, and I'm glad it stopped you from going with JARCO. The links shaeff posted are just the currant problems with their work done to this engine. If you look through my build, you will also see...

Alright, so I got the decking surface of the cover machined down level with the block. It ended up being 0.253mm taller than the block. Also, JARCO left the "bad" rivet in the MHG :3d_frown: which added to the problem. So, I decided to lap the block and head. I only have the block done so...

Well I decided to machine the surface down, and give this engine one more chance, that is unless I find someone selling a built long block ;) Another thing I found is, I think my injectors were leaking (stock 440s), a few of the short runners have a brownish oily residue in the inside, looks...

Well, I found the problem.....didn't take me long digging into it to find out what it was. JARCO did not deck the timing cover with the block....big shocker there...fucking twats!! There is a good 0.25-0.5mm difference between the two. So I can't just throw a new HG. So now I must decide what to...

Ben: Glad you're not selling it, how many swaps are you going to do to that car! Well I got my new MHG (HKS) in the mail today, and now that my brain is getting back into the supra, a few question have popped into my head. EDIT: Found the problem read my next post, so don't mind whats in small...

That side shot shows them better and they look like they are in a better location than I thought, so don't mind what I said about them being too far back ;) Thanks, yeah I molded them out of fiberglass, they will be filled and painted with the hood like the side vents I did.

Hey Dave, hows life:icon_bigg

Ben: Thanks, I'm always glad when I get back to the supra. I see you are selling your beast, too bad. sirgeorgee: Thanks, I hope I inspire people to think outside the box a little. Chris: I will get as many pics as I can ;) It would be nice to own my own camera though. Ken: Thanks...

If you are new...start reading from the beginning. OK, well I'm back for another season of supra. I ended up last fall buying a Land Rover Discovery 1 with the money I had saved up for the sup, the truck is sick, had no problems this winter in the snow in the mountains going boarding, I will...

Letting JARCO inc do my rebuild, what a POS shop that is/was!!!

Nice work! You did a great job, I also like that style of vent, but I went a slightly different route. The only "problem" I see is yours are set back on the hood, in the high pressure zone of the hood and would be way more effective if they were more to the front in the neg. pressure zone of the...

Hooray! Finally! I hope the miss is from the vac line leaking. You did set the timing...right...:icon_razz
