    In that case then, are you able to clarify what needs to be done? I have read that there needs to be head work to the 1J head, welding and redrilling, however there also seems to be a few that have used a standard 1J head with 1J head gasket and it is fine. How are you going about doing it...

    Thanks for the kind words guys, there is still a long way to go tho until I am happy with it, one of those journeys will include finding the limits of the turbo; then it will be time for 1.5J conversion and bigger turbo :biglaugh: I better not get too far in front of myself tho! Yeah, at the...

    As you can see, that was in April 2007, in August 2007 i threw the crank pulley whilst on gate in 2nd gear @ 7000 RPM. Considering i had just bought a house money for the Supra was a little short, and i haven't driven it since, it's been 8.5 months and it has certainly not been easy! However...

    Since previously owning a Supra, i knew suspension needed some attention. Even though it came with RS*R springs and Toyota / Bilstein shocks, a set of Tein Type Flex coilovers were fitted along with a set of Whiteline front and rear swaybars I love racing and it didn't take long...

    Once it was all cleaned up i thought it looked a million dollars. Below are a few other pics of how it came up :icon_bigg Not terribly great whel fitment The interior was a little worn The engine bay was a bit plain Except for this cool Air Dancer!

    Hey people, seems like a lot of people are doing this lately, so here's my version. I hope you all like it :) First things first, my first Supra was a GA70, i loved it so much that after its demise i knew i had to own another one. I was doing the usual forum trawl one day in February...
