I've been requested to start a build thread, so here goes...
First off, The car that is being Frankenstiened/ Modded/ Upgraded/ Engine swapped/ Whatever, began life as an '88 N/A Gloss Black supra with some interesting mods which I picked up in October of '08.
The interesting mods I found on said Sup were the usual intake and exhaust upgrades (Header, Intake blah blah blah) and then, one day whilst changing cam seals, I discovered AEM adjustable cam gears, and later a bunch of local guys and I decided it might have cams. The N/A was a j-spec (yeah.. big whoop I know) but for whatever was done to it, pulled fairly well.
And then I got stupid.
Two years later finds my Supra on jack stands with the engine being replaced for a 7MGTE.. amongst everything else I plan on doing, what follows is the B.S. and shinnanigans I'm going to put my self through in an effort to try to not blow this 7m up.
Before I get started on all the Build stuffs, HUGE thanks goes to 92nsx, emilio, Leecheeter, Toyotanos, and waaay more people than I could try to list in any sort of order (and there is no order.. however I owe 92nsx many and many a beer)
So.. here goes a build thread. I apologize for shitty picture quality, most of these pics were taken with a cell phone.:3d_frown:
