Hm, ok. Good to know, thanks.

do people rebuild the jdm bilsteins or what? as for the wheels, I'd wanted a set for a long time. never had the spare $ when they were in production, just happened across a set on here for sale a few months back.

yeah it just seems that air reversing direction in the first cooler would cause tumbling, where the 2nd one has much more surface area, and is designed more like an intake manifold.

hm... mine acts normally, but if it's REALLY cold out it bounces a lot and reads low by maybe 10mph

damn I'm jelly^ I've got a 3.0 turbo badge, and no one can have it :D didn't post any pics, so here they are. custom exhaust made by CJ Rayle (yakuzastinger) @ Niced Up Motorsports (I didn't let him finish adjusting it, still needs to be hacked up some more for T4 install.)...

no problem... makes me wonder about the stocker. I've seen them used over 400whp say 430 maybe. seem like that is probably out of the efficiency range.... *running #'s eh, it's actually not that bad. but everyone knows a lot of them are wore out, some leaking, bent fins, ect.... plus...

calculate off of how much air your turbo is moving. (lb/min = cfm * .074) so let's assume 55 lb/min / .074 = 743cfm should put you in the ~500whp ball park my tuner said 2.5" was good for up to 600whp, so this would make sense

@IJ that is some good food for thought. I'd planned to just use 2.5" piping w/ stock TB and stock cams. But my head is ported, and it feels like it could benefit from a better intake manifold/TB, ect. I'm just building a mild street car using a airwerks 8375 (S360) for 4-500hp. good stuff...

so, I see you guys aren't concerned with any potential turbulence caused by this end-tank design ,':-|

To me, it looks like the end tank design would cause a lot of turbulence. If this weren't the case, people wouldn't have been making intercoolers like these for a looong time. :icon_surp I don't have anything to base these assumptions off of other than common sense, so what say you guys?

gonna say, holding the clutch is bad for the thrust bearing too. especially w/ modified PP

Silver, the Brembo rotors are on ebay $48 plus shipping for one front. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brembo-25336-Front-Disc-Brake-Rotor-/310572795437?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3ASupra%7CYear%3A1992&hash=item484f94c62d&vxp=mtr I just got 350z track ones for $55 shipped though...

pics or ban! :rant: :biglaugh: welcome aboard

you peaked my curiosity. A lot of people reported good initial bite, and low dust, as well as no noise. 2 reviews for PM b-force pads from supra owners (HPFeaks.com) "Easy to install especially on single piece supra calipers, these brake pads give upgraded stopping power from stock. They do...

So, good news. Wesley @ Beech Performance has specs to make these brackets and I should be helping him organize a group buy here shortly. He said he could make me a set for sure but I'd have to wait till ~may, as they're too busy ATM. If the group buy is successful, he should be able to make...

:rofl: no, no I was talking about mocking up brackets to get measurements for the final product. I know wood would make one trip around the block, much less to the end of the driveway.... I think I'm going to wait till I have the hub rings and take measurements from there.

Super necro... If anyone has any specs on these brackets LMK I have nearly everything to make them work, had bought the brackets but the seller backed out on me after promising to ship them out, since he wasn't going to make enough $ off of me. (blackgamer16, beware)

Yeah, guess I need the hub spacer first. I'll get specs on that to the machinist tomorrow. Just not sure what I'd make the bracket out of... wood? I'm asking around though, good chance I can dig up some specs or buy an additional set of replications already being made. If I go with mocking...

So I had a deal go south. NBD I bought nightpager brackets (from blackgamer16), was told they'd be shipped. Came home and was informed that the seller wouldn't make enough $ and had pieced together a kit (after the sale) using my brackets. Attempts to twist my arm into buying the kit failed...

Good input guys, keep it up. :)
