Hi. I'm trying to do a 7M-GE swap into my 1982 Mk2 Supra. Scratch that -- the motor's in, we're just trying to wire it up. Unfortunately, we did it the first time around with an 89 EWD, while the motor is an 87. We can't get it to spark, or deliver fuel (though that's probably because we didn't...

Hey Dave.

Well that was fun. =D

So <3'd. Stats on my MkI, you want? Well again, right now it's kind of in limbo -- I don't know if I'm going to keep the engine that's in it, or do something crazy like a 7m. 5m-ge would be easier, but a step down. The MkI is a 1981 non performance package car, factory two-tone...

Where are you living in Alberta, man? I wish I'd had my Supra when I was still in high school.

Not much practice to be had right now, the car got sideswiped, and I suspect had shit dislodged into the fuel filter, and now has bum compression on one cylinder, and leaks on two others. This car would be lucky to make a 1/4 mile without melting, let alone do it in under 20 seconds.

I was looking for a pen and some paper so I could write "What's your phone number?" on it and flash it in the mirror. Again, she was actually pretty hot. I have a thing for the redheads, and I'm alllll about the angry-sex. Oh yeaaaaah. "TAKE IT, BITCH, MY CAR'S FASTER THAN YOURS!"

Shitty times because I can't launch to save my life, to be honest with you. Fastest was a 16.9, should be more like mid-15s.

I figured this one would be worth sharing -- not driving a MkIII, but still a Supra. In the MkI (153hp, 168ft-lbs at the wheels) I'm pulling up to a light. Switch into the right lane just to get out from behind this rather generic looking, champagne colored coupe. As I pull up to it, I...

Em-kay threes, yo.

I think he meant the rear-end of the car. FWD ftl.

Dave (CanuckDave on supraclub.ca) made a bunch of business cards for the club -- I have a stack of them, so whenever I see a Supra parked somewhere with no discerning markings on it, I'll usually slip one under the windshield wiper. Actually, I'll do it even if I recognize the car as a club...

Is it kind of a pearl white? On second thought, I may have club-carded your car last night, else one that looks exactly like it.

There are tons of mk3s around Calgary. If you haven't already, join up at www.supraclub.ca - the Calgary club actually just had a lunch meet on Sunday. Lots of people who know a lot of stuff about these cars, and everyone's really helpful. Welcome to the site, good to see another Calgary guy...

Wow. Pretty car. Wish my white 87 looked like that.

Just as an update, I've got a new hatch on the thing, replaced the gas door, and found a really nice right front fender to swap out for mine (which is crunched pretty bad just in front of the door.) With some battery cable, an Optima, and a bit of front end work, I should be able to get her...

Hell yeah. My Mk2 was immaculate when I bought it. THAT thing was a point of pride, nicest paint ever, no dents, only two spots of rust (hardly visible) and the strongest damn engine ever. Then it got wrecked. Now, my Celica GT is a POS with graffiti on the hood and a dented rear quarter...

I got her to her parking spot for now. The damage is a little worse than I'd anticipated, but still not looking bad. A dent on the passenger door, looks like something pushed the right fender in in front of it too, but I've seen worse. Need a gas tank door, marker lights, fog lights, back glass...

I now possess a 1987 N/A. It is desperately in need of help.

Okay, here's the damage! The side! It doesn't look so bad yet! The front. Gettin' a little worse. That spraypaint x is not encouraging. The back. Still not bad! Really, the body's in pretty good shape. The back window! ...wait a minute. Uh. Isn't there supposed to be glass...
