    Turbo-A Back Together! :D

    Need to remove the stickers on it. And get the dents out. Then remove the wing, respray the rear bumper. New clutch and suspension after that, and then I'm all done. Might get a better dump pipe sometime, I'm not too fussed about major power, the power its making is more than enough...

    Turbo-A Back Together! :D

    My Supra is back and better than ever. I took some pics of the engine bay last night, still needs a bit of a clean but it's looking good. Since the engine build its making 280hp at the wheels at 12psi, not bad for almost no modifications. Power is so much more responsive than before...

    High flow CT26 max PSI?

    Yeh its being treated pretty meticulously by the mechanic I've taken it to, he said he'd be doing lots of readings while tuning it. However thanks, I will note that.

    High flow CT26 max PSI?

    Ah okay, well we are going to dial in 14psi, plus the engine has had most major components replaced in the last 10,000km plus its getting a mhg and arp studs, so it'll take it pretty easy. Might see if it can do 16psi, see if the lack of an AFM makes it more usable.

    High flow CT26 max PSI?

    Hey guys, as you might have read in some of my previous posts my Turbo-A is being rebuilt. Its all built up right now and making 230hp at the wheels stock boost. Its being tuned at the moment and upping the boost. Now I've been reading around and it seems the AFM and stock ECU are an...

    Whats needed for 300rwhp 7M-GTE

    Hey guys, my Turbo-A's engine is being rebuilt at present, just wondering what kind of tweaking is needed for 300rwhp. Atm my car has these mods/differences. 5zigen cat back exhaust. Big K&N Pod filter. Highflow CT26 (we are going to increase boost to 12 or 13psi) The usual turbo-a...

    Clear 7M Timing Belt Covers

    Anyone know where you can order a clear 7M timing belt cover? I saw my cams for the first time bare and naked and I liked it haha. Unfortunately in Oz you can't just take the cover off, or you'll get a yellow sticker from the cops.

    Engine Rebuild What CAM Shafts Should I Use

    Sall good found some stock cam shafts today. Getting tested on Monday to see if they make the cut. Apparently all the measurements are fine, turbo-a lobes are identical to standard 7m-gte lobes. Just needs to go into a machine to test the rest of the variables. Was in a bit of a...

    Engine Rebuild What CAM Shafts Should I Use

    Well the guy whos rebuilding the engine wont do any other ECU other than MoTec and they are like 4 grand or something. I'm thinking about just putting in the old ones then going elsewhere later on down the track. It will run with the old ones, just that the caps will wear down eventually.

    Engine Rebuild What CAM Shafts Should I Use

    Seems I don't actually have the funds for custom cams and a new ECU. I'm going to chuck in the old cams atm, the price keeps skyrocketing for this rebuild. Theres nothing wrong with the lobes and before the head blew it ran smooth as silk. If I can't find some second hand cam shafts its the...

    Engine Rebuild What CAM Shafts Should I Use

    Hi guys, my Turbo-A is in the shop got wind of the fact that my head is warped and the people who rebuilt it before I bought the car put the caps on the wrong sides and now the journals are worn and the cam shafts are fracked. I'm in Perth Western Australia, gonna make some calls tomorrow...

    Hi all, I'm Matt check out my Supra! :D

    Nah the cam covers aren't a biggie, if someone wants them stock they can just buy new ones. They were already spray painted when I got it, badly painted silver. Looks like crap, needs to be done.

    Hi all, I'm Matt check out my Supra! :D

    I'm one of the lucky few, however it does mean I'm stuck with a 7M lest I destroy its originality. I'm looking at doing the cam covers this colour.
