    MD Supras

    Sorry I walked out of the house without my camera! Only 4 Supras showed up but there were many hot rods and muscle cars and some nice customs. I thought there was some talk about a fall meet in Richmond, I know there is talk going on about a meet in Atlanta that could be good. I'd be glad...

    Commence Flaming

    I'd say you just made someone very happy at your expense. When were you planning on selling the Camaro, next week? The more you drive it the more it drops in value, the older it gets the more it drops in value. What's the difference in your car insurance rates going from a 87 to a 95? Any more...

    How many run without EGR?

    Thanks, mileage and clean air do matter and hopefully I'll be able to pass emissions next year! I also have the parts so I might as well use them.

    How many run without EGR?

    My car came back out of the shop without the EGR system. I am using an AEM EMS and the car has been tuned without the EGR. Following the many discussions on the forum and Jdub's convincing argument for keeping the EGR I went to Toyota and bought an entirely new EGR system, they are still...

    Project F1 Car

    I would really have to agree with TurboFreak and MassSupra on this. Karts are a great place to start, they are fast and great fun and very competitive. Much easier on your budget especially since you also own a Supra! I would still recommend doing at least one driving school, they are great...

    Project F1 Car

    I would start by contacting the Sports Car Club of America-SCCA- to see what open wheel racing they are currently sanctioning. They can provide you with the car specs. It's been a while since I have been around this but Formula Ford was always a good starting point. Depending on your budget...

    coilovers

    So I don't know if I should add my 2c here, there seems to be good info coming from both camps. I would think most choices would end up being purely subjective based on driving conditions and overall suspension set up. I ran Yellow Koni shocks and Eibach ProKit springs with stock sway bars...

    I'm Slowly Considering....

    Steve Millen, aka Stillen MotorSports I believe is the biggest supporter of Nissan in the country. They are based in Calif. and have a huge inventory of parts and upgrades for the Z cars. You can even ship your car to them for major engine mods, etc.

    I'm Slowly Considering....

    From what you have told me that you want to do with your Supra and considering what you want to use for your budget numbers I would invest my 6 grand and save it for a rainy day. As far as car quality they can't compare to the Toyota Supra in any year and that's from experience. I've always...

    Sway Bar Installation/N.VA Reliable Shop

    Call Altered Atmospheres in Gaithersburg Md. See what they can do for you. It's not a bad drive around 495 to get to the shop. Also you could call OZ Racing, I think they are around Reston, if they wouldn't do the install they should know someone closer to you. I know I spent $300 to have my...

    R-154 Drive Shaft This is not correct is it?

    Since you have to buy a new front half you might want to consider an after market single piece. I got an aluminum one from "The Drive Shaft Shop" and it installed easily and fit like a glove.

    Glove Box (Standalone Owners only please)

    That is a great location for the port in a space that is blocked off and unused in my interior. How did you design the opening and closing feature for the port cover? Thanks.

    Greetings and welcome! Looks like a nice Supra you have there, I'm real partial to black-great color for one. I see you joined in March and it looks like you have been doing some reading, glad to see your 1st post. I know I hung out for awhile reading a lot just to get a sense of the forum. I...

    Forced to use Fuel cell anything I should know.

    I would suggest using the "Search" option here-fuel systems and read every thing that you can to get some foundation for what you want, also check the Aeromotive web site to get very familiar with what products are available and then plan what you think you want to do. I thought about a cell...

    Battery ?

    I'm relocating mine to the spare tire well so I can fit a FFIM. Vent thru well drain, external kill switch @ rear license plate, inside kill switch where the TEMS controller used to be. I have an Optima now, new in Jan. '08 and presently suspect. Thinking of trying a CF 21lb. Braile and...
