    Where does Comp turbo list the CT housing turbos? Or do you have to contact them directly about it?

    The 7mgte Bolt-On Turbo Catalog

    Only 2 places I know of to get a new one. http://www.suprasport.com/BOSS-Sr-Series-Turbo_p_756.html http://www.spracingonline.com/store/Precision_MFS_CEA_Billet_87-92_MKIII_Supra_Direct_Bolt-On_Turbo/3143 I hope there are others that know of more companies that still make Supra bolt on turbos.

    Favourite Cereal?

    Yeah I think CTC wins. Though I have always liked Life Cereal. Have to eat it fast though, I hate that shit when it gets soggy. Very rarely eat breakfast anymore though, no time.

    Centralia or Bust! ......Delilahs build

    Ok good :D Yeah these old parts really let go with a bang sometimes. I maxed out my 20 ton press not too long ago with a seized part. Didn't think I would be able to get it off but finally put some heat to it with a torch. Rust is a bastard.

    Centralia or Bust! ......Delilahs build

    Just to verify, you did remove the outer snap ring holding the inner race into the knuckle? The press just did not have enough force to remove the bearing?

    Sheedy Built Supra

    Yeah just curious on that, have seen some older engines having long term compatibility issues with ethanol. Could be from methanol injections systems or water in the ethanol. Just wanted to get a take from people that are actually running it. Anyone have a boroscope they can stick in the...

    You guys haven't had any issues with the ethanol eating away any aluminum inside the engine / intake?

    Help! Supra doesn't run right

    Yeah engines are pretty basic; fuel, air, spark. Something is off! Just need to figure out what. :D Could be right on the fuel, hopefully he can figure it out soon.

    Help! Supra doesn't run right

    Somehow I still think there is a large/medium air leak somewhere... It sounds like its not measuring the correct amount of air that is actually going into the engine. In the past I have forgot to connect some air / vacuum lines, the car ran like shit until I remembered what was messed up.

    Thermostat Easy Question

    Allows any trapped air in the system to pass through the thermostat area. Then move to an area where it can bleed out of the system in time (Radiator Cap, overflow tank)

    Properly swap a V160 6 speed transmission into A70 Supra.

    Looking very nice! Did you press on the tone ring to the larger pinion conversion flange?

    Thermostat Easy Question

    Its called a jiggle pin or jiggle valve. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=CO&P=8 Most vehicle place the pin at 12o'clock or 1o'clock. There are exceptions though.

    Properly swap a V160 6 speed transmission into A70 Supra.

    Nice! Put up some photos of it installed :D You swapped it over to the EU spec rear cover right? Let me know if you ever come across another EU style rear cover, I will buy it :D

    Interesting "Supra"

    Centralia or Bust! ......Delilahs build

    Yeah I completely rebuilt all my wheel hubs not too long ago. It would have been impossible without my press. Make sure the machine shop has the printed TSRM procedure. Don't want them messing up something :D The fronts are straightforward. The rears if I remember right, the inner seal can...

    Interesting "Supra"

    Ahah well that's good to know. Did you work in vehicle insurance or repair at some point? I feel like that car should be crushed anyway regardless.

    Sheedy Built Supra

    Nice and clean. Good work. Really like that log style exhaust manifold over the other designs.
