    Google does. I will PM you the link, since I believe it is against the guidelines to link to "the other forum".

    rear subframe update

    That was rude. Just reinforce your current subframe, it is not worth the hassle, plus shipping a subframe to canada would be much more pricy than making your own reinforcements, or even having someone making them. They are just two bars that run from the front to the back on each side of the...

    Love it, I have always wondered how the HX52 would do on a 3.0, but you said it spools at 3800 or so on the 2.5, that is incredible. I bet it feels awesome. I may have to try out a HX52 on my 7m just because of this. I should be able to find one somewhere pretty easily, and cheap.

    I was bored one Teusday so mini photoshoot + cool story + pictures.....

    Looks great. I have emotional swings about my Supra every day, but right after I think about selling it, I realize I am full of shit, and will never get rid of it. (except for the right price which is way high.)

    Any suggestions on a good place to get a 7MGTE shortblock?

    I would never trust the ebay guy. Not unless he somehow is one of the builders on the forums and has the rep to back it up. But if you would like to be a ginneua pig feel free. Not all stuff on ebay is junk, but I would hate to spend 3 grand on an engine that will be out of specs or just slapped...

    Any suggestions on a good place to get a 7MGTE shortblock?

    I believe there are a few guys here that will build you a great proven bottom end, but I believe it is very costly. I also think it would be worth it in the end if you plan on keeping the engine, and want someone to do it that has built many high horse 7m's. I wish I could remember who they were...

    clutch disc question

    I would stick with a sprung for a street driven car. I have a 6 puck act sprung, and it will chatter some here and there. You get used to it. I have not driven a unsprung, but I would imagine it would chatter quite a bit more.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Black license plate ;) Thanks a lot. I had some custom center caps made too. Ill have to post them up here soon. 99 cobra aluminum wheels. They aren't the chrome ones. I decided against the chrome, because I think I like the look of these a little better than the chrome. No sir. Different...

    1990 turbo help please.

    Price sounds real high to me. Shells in good condition can go for around 1000 all day every day. It would also depend on the interior color and exterior color if he knows what he has. If you can give us some more info on the car we may be able to help a little better.

    who runs a wiring harness through the intake manifold?

    Yes sir, there is a few of us MKIII guys here in the metro. Anyways when I did my head gasket I pulled the harness off of the engine, but when I pulled my engine, I pulled the harness out from behind the dash. I found this much easier to do, and I hear many people on this forum say that pull...

    who runs a wiring harness through the intake manifold?

    You will be needing this, a lot. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/ Yes the harness goes over the trans and there is a clip up there. There is a speed sensor which is the one that screws onto the side of the trans and is a cable, the electronic one is the reverse light switch...

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2…now 3.

    Good to hear. I have heard the CP's, or JE's slap at least when cold, that is why I do not want them, and I love the skirt coating. I have some higher goals in the end, but I think I will be happy with some Wisecos also. I had my eyes on a set of Pauters, but they sold. I heard eagles can hold...

    I am enjoying this build, I would love to know what your power goals are. I am in the process of a similar build, but am focusing on the engine, and electronics part first. then suspension and body. I am planning on going with Wiesco pistons also, what made you go for them over the others? I...
