Jeff's Supra Build...again
- Thread starter 7Mboost
- Start date
Doward: So like PTE, Denso, Delphi, any other brands I should stay away from besides Venom? And it won't hurt running 680's or 720's even though I'm only on the 62-1 right now, for like low boost settings?
suprahooked: WHY!??!?!
I think looking at cars and thinking of how easy it will be to pick up girls in my finished Supra is the main thing that keeps me on this project that and going through all the gears right outta my dad's shop torward the end of main street.
Ok made a little progress today the block not being painted was really gettting to me so I got some Duplicolor High Temp Universal Black (light gloss).

I had a bug, meh, it was nice, but no chick magnet, lol... As for the injectors, you can go larger, the injectors run on a cycle, its not like you'll be dumping 720cc's in everytime you tap the gas... Just make sure whatever engine management you go with can work with injectors that big... The main reason I went with the AEM was because I couldnt find any other EMS that could handle 1000cc injectors... I would have LOVED to stick with a piggy back set up and kept my factory ECU, but I couldnt... Unless there is a set up out there that can control injectors of that size, I just havent heard of it...
Yeah I have AEM EMS as well so I should be good on the injectors? Haha I can't wait to pull up in this thing! I'd be embarrased as hell to ride around in my Taurus though I do lol.
Tomorrows plans: Prep and paint rear hatch interior area under carpet with some more universal paint, also may have a electronics guy coming in to figure out my wiring mess with the alarm and stock wiring confusion.
How much boost do you plan on running from that 62-1?
Projected power output?
I'm planning on doing about 550rwhp on the 680s, at 36psi fuel pressure

I'm thinking 15psi street, and 18psi track or race, when I upgrade I'll be going a little bigger then a 67 probably so I'm thinking I should just get 720's? On the 62-1 I'd like to make over 425rwhp on 15psi.
And hatch painted pics coming.

425hp on a true T04 62-1 @ 15psi... hmm. @ 15, I don't know if you'd make 425rwhp man
We'll have to strap that down @ Rollins and see Yeah, I'd probably just go 720s, and not worry about it later down the line.
Looking good, though!
Ok not much done, saturday went to the beach, and sunday i was out of it. Today I started putting the reat area back together, got hatch weather stripping on, and mounted the tails...but today was distracting because an old friend just got out of jail for a 5 year sentecnce which he didn't commit but it was so good to see him.
Tomorrow I will finish the rear hatch and get the motor mounts from my NA.

Well I had a bunch of hold ups and school starting and shit so I got way behind and had to wait for a few parts before dropping in the motor when I planned but I FINALLY got it in. I spent a little extra time and got some nice paint on a few more pieces, alt. bracket, pullies, block, thermostat housing, and a bunch of other stuff.
Also if anyone can identify my cam gears that'd be great lol, I don't know what they are.
