88 Supra Rebuild (Trans swap 1/18/11)
- Thread starter Devin LeBlanc
- Start date
My first ticket was a 85 in a 55.. Dead night coming home from the mountains, My friend and I were the only ones on the road, Cop passed in the opposite direction..
2nd one was me giving my friend a ride, got on it at bottom of 2nd and at top of 2nd let off at 75 mph in a 45.. Two cops hiding at a apt complex exit..
Both tickets were 21-30mph over tickets, Both 215.00, and I paid 50.00 on top of each to have them reduced to parking tickets, no points, no driving school or anything..

You paid who to have them reduced to parking tickets? If you paid the cops, that would be bribery and I of pulled out my IPhone and then started recording the conversation, easy to do on the IPhone, and go to court, play the recording....
Yep did both my tickets, and a couple of my brothers too..
Update.. Tuned the car on 12 lbs tonight.. Here is the perfect holding AFR graph after me tuning it, this was the final pull after adjustments were made
The first zigzag at the beginning while AFR was dropping was the fuel pump relay kicking on full voltage, and the zig zags at the end was rev limiter

Im using the SAFC neo to tune (its going bye bye soon as I have decided to go megasquirt and E85) I am using a Innovate LC1 wide band to log.
Well not much of an update..
Here is a recent video... Been working full time to pay the tickets.. And then start doing more nice things to my car

Thats all I have to say!
12's here I come
:thumbup:
Here is hoping the 5 speed people don't catch on. Well done, nice build.
Small updates, My trans is maxed out again.. lol found that out the last time at the drags. Going to have IPT do me a valve body and maybe a reworked stall.
Recently replaced my hatch struts, what a bitch that was. Cleaned the whole interior and put it all back together. Got the windows tinted 5% all around. It came out real nice! Got all new tires, Hankook Ventus V4 ES105's 225/50R16 for daily driving.
Haven't done much with the car lately other than that. Still need driveshaft, injectors, and more boost but no $$$ right now..
Car is down into the mid/high 12's. Did a 12.7 and had the car trapping at 109mph cutting 1.6 and 1.7 60ft's with the M/T cheater slicks.
Here are some pics just to keep things updated!

New Exhaust!!! Woot.. All done by my brother at his shop.. Full Mandrel Bent, Turbo back 3 inch downpipe to the back. Sounds beautiful. Tucked up very tight!
First step, 3 Inch open DP to a 3 bolt 3 inch flange.
Complete mock up on car and tack welded everywhere.
Welding on a hanger, My brother doing what he does best!
Complete exhaust getting welded!
Will have complete pics from under on the lift tomorrow and in the day light! Fitment is awesome and sounds great!
Here is a quick pick from the back at the gas station

Exhaust looks great, love the angle. Can't wait to see some new times with your tranny tweaked a bit.
IBoughtASupra: The valve body has been completely re-worked by me. It was completely taken apart down to a bare valve body and cleaned/rebuilt, The separator plate has been modified, the primary regulator has also been modified as well as some other stuff internally.
Nice.
That is like when I do an R154. All Marlon Crawler parts but I run tight clearances within spec, makes them take abuse.

Just to keep the thread rolling, Not much of any updates. I ended up getting rid of my SAFC Neo and going to a Greddy Emanage that I got for a really good price. Its hooked up for full injector control and also timing control. This gives me more tuning ability being able to adjust the injectors without messing with the AFM signal. It also gives me a AFM clamp to get rid of fuel cut. And the fact that it can be tuned on a laptop with map tracing and a bunch of other good stuff.
Should be getting a Aluminum 1 peice DS in soon a long with RC Engineering 750CC Injectors to top everything off. Next week Im going to pull the turbo and manifold off so my brother can weld on a flange for the 38mm Vband external wastegate and make a strap to hold the stock internal gate closed. This will allow me to run higher boost and also the ability to hold it without spikes and what not.
Were going for the Stock Turbo HP record. Planning on breaking at least 380 but should be able to get it to 400 or so.
Will post pictures of the external gate setup next week! But here are some pics of the recent stuff.
Got this in like brand new condition with the optional software and cable, optional ignition harness, and optional Injector harness for 250.00
Thanks,
Devin
