Yeah when I ran this exhaust I tucked it up as much as possible leaving very little space between it and the bottom of the car as not to scrape on the ground but after putting on these tires I feel like I'm flying it sits so high lol

Awesome thread, this is exactly what I wanna do when I get another supra. Get turbo/ffim/tuning all setup while im building motor.its funny how I invisioned my whole build in my head,down to the ms3 and now im seeing it here.im planning on going e85 though.

engine bay will stay white till i swap my built engine in (once its built)




im running the exhaust that i made after i put this turbo on with the muffler i was running when you saw it last

HOLY SHIT YOUR CAR LOOKS AMAZING!!!! I couldn't even believe that was your car... I had to do a double take. Okay... thats your house, that's your van... that's my parts car.... okay... wow.

As for the white engine bay... you know I love that!! I am going to clean up and paint my engine bay white when I pull the motor some day... it is in the plans. I think you should keep it that way, it looks sooooo clean!!!

Had to replace bearings, caught it before catastrophic failure
All good now
I'm waiting on funds to build my turbo block
And waiting on a nice day to do a bunch of tuning, get my boost control dialed in a little better and whatnot

 

[jdmfreak]

mounted cry02 tank
installed amp and subs
installed "hot chick support bar"
and a pic of the meats on back





i need to find a tonneu cover

 

[jdmfreak]

I have got to find some +89 engine mounts
when I took my engine out the mounts were torn and dropping it back in tore my new mounts :-\ Evidently I have the wrong brackets that go on the block

 

[supraguy@aol]

Somewhere there was a thread saying that some sort of Ford truck mounts were nearly a straight drop-in.
And way cheaper.

 

[jdmfreak]

I need the actual bracket that comes off the engine not just the mounts

the ones I have are at the wrong angle....

Also I'm going to try and get some beefier mounts (not sure I want to go solid but definitely not stock)

 

[supraguy@aol]

I think bic has poly's.

 

[supraguy@aol]

So, what is your subframe? 87-88 or 89+?
BIC performance has 87-88 poly mounts, and aluminum mounts for 89+
They also have both types of engine brackets, but they're pricey, vs. grabbing a pair of oem's on Ebay or the for sale forum.

 

[jdmfreak]

89+

 

[Faye]

Is this something you'd consider buying new?? I can look up availability at work tomorrow just pls text and remind me

 

[jdmfreak]

Well not much to update have been working a lot, next up on the list is cut/buff the paint

 

[supranewbie]

Hey bro! Long time no talk. How's the car coming along?

 

[jdmfreak]

Hey it's still running strong, been working weekends so not much has happened, done a little cut/buff and some more tuning but nothing major

 

[supranewbie]

So you made it white?

 

[jdmfreak]

Not yet;-)

 

[supranewbie]

Nah. It looks good.
