hey there everybody,
my name is tristan, and i will be hanging around in the 7mge engine tech section... as this is really the only forum here that applies to me. i currently own a supra, but it is only for a short time so i can save the powertrain from rusty eventual death and offer a chance at new life for the little 7m. (aren't i a nice guy?) here is a pic of the donor supra in the garage
as you can see this car was just rotting away at the local boneyard, till i came around, grabbed a tape measure, went home to measure, went back to the yard to measure, did about six months of research as close as possible to what i wanted to do (i doubt that my project has ever been done before, so there is no DIY thread or article anywhere.... trust me i've looked, some that are similar, though and these have been my rough guideline)
i will occasionally be asking questions about the 7mge as it is a new medium to me, but an engine is an engine and most things i can find on/in the manual. Other things, though, like "What exhaust sounds good on a N/A?" are the reason i am here. that is why i signed up for this supra forum... that exact question has already been asked, and all i have to do now is subscribe! Perfect!
Well, that's me, and i'll post a build thread in a few weeks when i complete this project... or i will link you to a build thread on bimmerforums.... whichever(and no, the 7m is not going in a BMW, or a Toyota).
thanks in advance to everyone...
