CampbellsChunkySoupra's Build Thread...

[mk3_dude]

yup. ive almost got the car completely paid off. i decided that getting it completely in my posession is the first thing that needs to be done. so ill have more to come after that. should be ordering my cooleeze accordian intake pipe here after shes paid off.

wow your supe is really turning out nice!...And about all the motor Q's, i'd just go ahead and spend the money on that 7M you have in it. That thing is still real reliable and to do any other swaps, 1J, 2J, 1G, all them swaps will probably take you close to a year to finish. Due to searching for all parts and what not and spend thousands on it slowly. When you can already do a FULLY BUILT 7M reliable. Just my 2 cents! Now go take that thing on the track.

 

[CampbellsChunkySoupra]

hah, the track wont let me take it there yet. i still have some minor oil leaks that replacing the valve covers and CPS oring didnt fix. so im now moving on to the front main and the cam seals. ill be ordering those this week and hopefully doing them this weekend if weather permits. once the oil leaks are fixed, i ASSURE you, i will be at the track!

-Tyler

 

[CampbellsChunkySoupra]

ok. so a few things have changed recently. ive since scrapped the 1jz/1g-gte options and ive decided to stay with the current 7m. in a week or two, ill be pulling the motor to finally fix all of the oil leaks that i have yet not been able to fix. ill be buying a gasket kit and replacing pretty much everything other then the headgasket [it has a MHG already]

should be cleaning the motor up as well as the engine bay and finally getting her up to the status that she needs to be at. ive got a few things that i still need to fix but its going alrigh. ill be ordering an HKS ssqv here soon to i think.

what else should i look into replacing or checking when i pull the motor?

-Tyler

 

[suprahooked]

Cps o-ring,front and rear crankshaft seals, cam shaft seals,and rear timing belt cover gasket.

 

[CampbellsChunkySoupra]

cool. ive already replaced the cps o-ring and ive got a set of cam seals so those are checked off the list. now to find my gasket kit!

 

[CampbellsChunkySoupra]

ordered my FULL ENGINE Gasket kit. should be anything and everything ill need to replace the oil leaks that are pissing me off.

i also have code 51/52 to fix while the motor is out. might be something as simple as plugging back in the knock sensor or re wiring it like ive been reading... we'll see when next wednesday comes to pull it.

after i get it pulled, fixed, cleaned, and put back in im going to be purchasing a jz series motor. not sure on which one yet. we'll see. ill have more info on that later.

oh yeah... i will have a TON of pictures from the pull..

since u wont need the HG from the kit, can I have it?

 

[Emik87t]

Hey Tyler you doing all the work yourself? I have my head and block are at harveys by you right now and Jerry's doing the work on them. My bills 2600 right now! Mine's being bored and the head and valves are being redone and im gonna run some wiseco pistons this time. Motor selection....hmmm. That's a tough one, the 1jz is cheaper but i personally like the 2JZ better. I'll be watching your build and ill have pics soon because my engine should be back by this weekend and my turbos on its way back from SP. Keep us posted. 515.

 

[CampbellsChunkySoupra]

nice. hah, there was a 2jz up at harveys about a month ago on a full build. hes a really good buddy of mine too. haveys does pretty good work. jerrys is a good guy for the most part. he'll rape u on a few things. but yes they do good stuff. im not totally set on the 1jz. if it comes to that, ill just import one.

uhm, im pulling it with the guy that has the 2jz build going [imagine that] we are replacing all gaskets except for the HG because i have an HKS MHG. unless we deem it neccessary to replace it. otherwise im just cleaning things up and replacing a few things. u know, make her a little bit more reliable. stuff like that. plus im trying to get track ready so thats my goal at this point. my turn up the boost if i can ever get these codes and oil leaks figured out.

-Tyler

 

[Emik87t]

Ya i thought it was pretty pricey but hopefully he'll do me good because he used to drag race and be a good friend of my unlce Tony. He had another 7m in there and he was telling me about the guy who just had the 2jz done. Keep us posted on the track, where you going? When you going? Hell if i'm done and broke in i might be interested in running with ya, if you don't mind. LMK.

 

[CampbellsChunkySoupra]

Burntz- when i get the HG ill see how good it is and ill see if ill get rid of it

Emik87t- heh. nice... we will usually run up at the newton 1/8th. i need to fix my oil leak and get a battery tie down and then im track ready. i need to tune it abit. usually newton has drags every other friday night. there is a 1/8th strip down in eddyville too. thats about an hour from me. probably an hour and a half from you. they have drags all weekend long. good track too. has sticky compound down and a burnout box too.

heh, it'd be killer to have 2 mkiii's and a 2jz running here in iowa...

ive been having my supra out on the street quite abit lately [not street racing] but these codes are killing me so its not fun to "boost but not boost" if u will.

Tyler screw the JZ series.. go 1G-GZE, that's right supercharged!

Hey Emik87t, welcome to SM. So you have a build going at Harvey's good luck getting out of there cheap. They do a good job, but for the same work on a V8 you'll spend a $500 or more on an Inline 6... Both M series and JZ series, but i guess they do a good job so i keep going back.. For just machine work and a few parts they charged me $2296.46.. I bought my pistons and rods at wholesale so i didn't include that in the final total.

Sorry I'm bitching ha ha, they do great work though! My cylinder head is freaking amazing! This thing will really flow more than stock.

Anyways hope to see you around nice Supra in your avatar.

 

[CampbellsChunkySoupra]

hah, i need to stop being gay and just pull the current jdm 7m and see where im at. ill get some things sorted out and then ill know exactly what i need and exaclty what i want. cheers!

 

[Emik87t]

Lee Ma61, ya they're pretty pricey but i wanted someone to do it that could do it and do it right, and jerry said he does quite a few supra motors so i went with someone i could trust...due to my uncle tony.
Mr. Soup, ya i go to eddyville to watch the drags on big holiday weekends and ill be there june 30th for the big 4th of july show. We went to the Topeka Nationals 2 weeks ago and it was f-N awesome. I got to see John/Ashley Force and get autographs, and Tony Schu from Army and Gary White from Titan driving his turbo celica, and he ran like a 6.32 in the 1/4. My family has always been into drag racing and 2 of my unlces, my aunt, and my dad have drag raced. One of my unlces drag raced for a long time and my other still has his 800hp capri. I'm not sure when my car will be ready cause right now im hoping to have the damn motor by the weekend. I'll let you know when it arrives, cause ill have pictures.

 

[CampbellsChunkySoupra]
