    7M-GTE vs GT500

    i've got to say i've ridden in one of these things (the mustang)... and i was generally unimpressed... these cars (the gt500) are kinda on the heavy side, so i wouldn't be surprised if you did keep up with him just looked at the curb weight here it is... 3,920 lbs for the hardtop...

    The "NOT SO GOOD" gas mileage thread

    i'd get 30mpg and like 15 around town cause I drive like an ass... this was the 7mgte this motor had open 3" exhaust (ddp), 2" IC pipes, k&n intake + cooleaze inlet, thermal insulating gasket on intake mani., turbo wrap, DP wrap, and the ic pipes had heat shield on them as well my 7mge got...

    4 Cylinder Supra?

    of course you don't need to use a getrag trans, but then again I don't exactly know what other options there are (although, I know there are several) t-56 is one example... lol... do lots of research? I haven't come to this issue yet, but i'd go ahead and take the car apart... get your motor...

    Anyone ever run a insulator on intake ?

    i used one of those cheap plastic deals on my 7mgte... who knows if it made a difference... that wooden one is rather intriguing oh, I do recall having to re-size the holes for the runners.. don't think they lined up/were the right shape, but it seemed to hold up fine after a few years use.

    4 Cylinder Supra?

    I know it will fit (but it won't) in other words you have to make your trans tunnel larger (i've heard of people just hammering it out) but i'd take the time to widen it correctly.

    4 Cylinder Supra?

    I've definitely considered the swap, and I'd still like to do a 3s mkiii supra in the future... of course it'll be as light as possible, and I'd like to use it for road racing and auto x... nobody would expect it... that's for sure.. not to mention, like I said previously... these motors are...

    4 Cylinder Supra?

    LOL... do NOT do a 4a swap into a supra... that would be terrible... the supra in question is the top secret gt-300 supra w/ a 3s-gte motor something like 720 hp w/ a t88 turbo 1.8 bar i think? I think some of the JGTC supra's used the same motor as well. the 3s-gte is found in celica's and...

    7m vs sr20

    you're correct, lol i don't know any of the car's specs at all (supra or silvia) I just know i've seen some serious beaters in my time, and I know while my mostly stock supra could outrun all of the sr20's with similar mods (as my car) there didn't seem to be that big of a gap (1 car length or...

    7m vs sr20

    you ever "assumed" maybee the jackass didn't know a damn about his car, and it was running like shit? I'm not trying to be an ass, just making a point that not every motor runs the same

    7m vs sr20

    i assume you havn't heard about weight distribution... aluminum block 4 cyl. vs iron block 6 cyl.... big difference, bud. and to all those that said the sr20 is weak... i wouldn't exactly say that... definitely lots of potential.

    Toyota/Subaru Sports Coupe 2011

    man, but a factory warrantied turbo or even s/c ae86 reincarnation would be sweet... i'd prolly be forced to buy it, lol... looks like i'm'll just have to get a real AE86... get me a mr2 blower... full exhaust.... i bet it'd be about 5x cheaper than gettin that new "thing" when it comes out...

    A Defiled MKIV

    ??? it's a wide body? the kit doesn't look bad, but the wing does... and civics, brand names, and all that nonsense have no meaning... the quality of the body work is good, and it looks nice... however, the wing does not look good, and the wheel fitment is TERRIBLE!!!! no wing, or RMM wing...

    Toyota/Subaru Sports Coupe 2011

    Why I own a Supra

    no, lol... I can't find work... well, I can, but let's say I don't have enough $ to re-locate right now... not sure what to do... but, rest assured, I'll have another supra pretty soon here.
