Nashman and IJ, Thanks for your replys. I know now what to do. Van

I don't have mine connected, during the race season, (to keep intake temps down). I also have to add fuel to compensate for the extra O2, so combustion temps don't get too high. During the off season, I put it all back on and take out the added fuel. It's a pain, but I like the results. Lots...

Hey, This is the second time this has happened on this Supra.:3d_frown: I need to know who has an upgraded one they'll sell me. I'd prefer to pick one up locally, I live in Portland, OR. Mine cracked on the top twice and once on one of the LSD's mounting bolt holes. The latter is making my...

O.K., I hit 135 - 137 MPH on the front straight at PIR and each time the car would get light, still controllable, a lot of air under the car feel. I never tried to go WOT to see if it would lessen or worsen. The instructor I was with said that was common on cars set-up like mine. He suggested...

Over the years, I've used several brands Bosch, NGK and OEM. I disconnect my wires once a year to look at the condition of the plugs and find OEM quality stands up to this type of use. All the others tend to have issues, coming apart in the process. I've owned this car since '92 and the current...

Here is my complete parts and labor charge for a 7MGE to GTE conversion, done three years ago. The entire process took two months. I still enjoy this DD. Should I stay off the throttle, I can get decent mileage. Van 86.5 Supra NA > T 9/14/2005 Cost Ceramic...

38. I bought it as an NA w/BHG in '92 for 10K. Had it rebuilt. Drove it around as an NA 'til 2003 when it developed another BHG. Then I decided to put a little excitement into the car and dropped in a rebuilt 7MGTE, R154 and LSD, one that came with an '87 turbo. I like the car even more! Van

There is a "Chinaman 3" SS exhaust" being offered through 935 motorsports... Looks good; similar to the RSR GT2. Van

Oh! Yeah! Sorry about that... Van

Have a reliable DD 314 HP Supra, with parts I can buy from Toyota, until they run out of stock. Brought the Supra up to Toyota's usual reliability standard, after replacing their stock head gasket with an HKS stopper gasket and ARP head bolts, so now it's all about maintainance. In that vien, I...

I've never pulled much beyond 80 MPH on the highway, but on the track at Portland International Raceway, on the front straight, I ran mid 120's all day in the rain, mid March, w/o problems. The driveline is set-up w/one piece Alu JawsGear DS and 3.91:1 final drive (tac was inop). Van

Have you made any performance upgrades to your Supra? If so, what are they? This is my experience: if your auto is a daily driver with intake, exhaust and fuel upgrades, as are in my Supra, and will occasionally see the track, the OEM will work well, as will an aftermarket OEM style...

I asked... I called them three years ago, spoke w/them and had them send me spec sheets. They site an add package, and I asked them what those are and was told they remove seal degradation caused by the diester base stock. Of course, the only way I can know for a fact is to have the oil...

NEO 100% Diester synthetic 75-90 HD http://www.neosyntheticoil.com/gear_oil.html I have been using this brand gear oil for 16 years. Works as well in the LSD... For track days, I change to the NEO 18 LWT in the R154. In the LSD, I still use the NEO 75-90 but RHD vs HD. My times improved...

So, are we starting a new thread? This thread is about what "I hate the most about my Supra". Right? Or, am I missing the point? I thought it was being offered to us to have our feelings validated... :nono: Sheeeit! Van

I dislike that it weighs 3,550! That Toyota didn't see fit to locate more of the engine behind the front wheels, giving the Supra better weight distribution. Van

No. I'm still replacing worn out parts with new, modified OEM parts, like a ceramic coated OEM exhaust manifold, and giving new life to an old 21 y/o. Next, rust removal and a respray in Super White, w/late model trim. Van
