    I was just given a Supra...now what? Now with pics!

    Didnt realize you already had a supra project when i said 7mgte. Id say either sell it as a parts car/part it out, or get it running good and then sell it contingent on pics. Post them already.

    Repair shop taking WAY TO LONG to fix a T-56. Is there anything I can do???

    I'm assuming this place is a caddy dealership? I would start off by talking to the higher ups or the owner of the business, chances are he has no idea his shop is pulling shit like this. If that fails then look into things like BBB. Good luck

    Question about all the stolen supra's

    Line lockers! put them on the front, or get an extra set and do all 4 wheels. Secure your supra, and be able to lock up just the front brakes for smoky burnouts. For those of you who dont know, a line locker is an electronic solenoid. You press the brake, then activate the line locker, and...

    Supra in Clunker lot

    +1 for DT and Supramario! As i said in the MKIII qualifies for the clunker program thread: They take your money via taxes, then if you participate, they give you your money back, if you dont they give your money to someone else. Nothing good can come of this. It's socialist, stupid and...

    Driftmotion Turbo upgrade kits

    Turbo is not something to cheap out on. I bought a slightly used upgraded ct26 in the name of saving like $100 and now im in the middle of a disaster because the turbo is trash. Looking back I will never buy anything but a new turbo from a reputable seller, and Big Aaron is definitely reputable!

    Question about all the stolen supra's

    Boxing your car in is a great way to help prevent theft of the car. That way they have to get the other vehicles out of the way before they can take it. somebody wants to steal my supra they gotta get my landscape trailer out of the way, if somebody wants to steal that they have to get my...

    Question about all the stolen supra's

    I dont know how practical it is, but its a good idea. Another is to etch your VIN into expensive items such as turbos, intercoolers rims exc. If your car is stolen then you put your VIN on a hot item list, so everyone can check before buying.

    Question about all the stolen supra's

    As do I, however i dont like lenghty police investigations and angry family members taking me to court for killing "their little angel" that made a poor decision. I had my TL stolen last year... they took out my stereo system, ipod, radar detector, exc. and torched the car... Few months...

    4 Cylinder Supra?

    You need a shifter extension to use a R154 in an mk4, so I would assume that would mean putting a Getrag in an mk3 would put the shifter in the back of your center console, so my guess is no. Said shifter extension: http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-r154shifterextensionformk4sc300.php

    BOV installed, just double checking.

    I'm assuming that the OP just threw the BOV on and didnt adjust the spring pressue, and the spring pressure on a nev BOV is usually insufficient, the BOV will open slightly at idle, however its good that you mentioned this, otherwise I would have forgotten to mention it. OP: Adjust the spring...

    BOV installed, just double checking.

    Venting into the atmosphere is perfectly fine if your running a speed density setup. You are running the AFM so you shouldnt. The AFM counts the air as it goes thru it, into the intake. Your ECU uses this figure to calculate how much fuel used. When you vent into the atmosphere, you loose...
