My Supra and WRX

[simpsons7s]

I have a 88 supra and a 03 wrx, I just rebuilt the wrx motor over the last couple weeks, so it only has 85 miles on it, I have many mods on it, intake, exaust, boost controler, injectors, turbo timer, COBB tuning, and many STi parts. The Supra has to many mods to list, you have to look at my mod list to see them, although I just put an AEM EMS in the supra and am still tuning it. So hope you enjoy.

I like the Supra...it looks great. Not big on WRX's but yours looks like it is very well taken care of. I like the setup you have on the Supra too.....which is the faster car?

 

[88mkIIIproject]

good variety of fast cars! which do you like better, or is that hard to say?

and yes, which is faster?

Nice Supra and WRX. Still running the stock TD04 turbo (on the WRX)?

Thanks all. The supra is much faster, but that is because of the level of mods and boost (23psi). The WRX has the best handling by far, slight understeer unless you stay on it in a corner. I can beat a mkIII with the wrx in almost all mountian driving or on a straight as long as the supra runs stock boost. I can beat the wrx with my supra in straight lines or drifting. In a straight line, if the supra runs about 12psi it is about a tie.
The WRX has the stock turbo I am afraid to change again because this is the third engine I've been through, I killed the last two with higher flowing turbos.

I have to say that I like the supra better mostly because I've had it for 11 years now.

I also noticed that you ran your wires differently for your coolant housing and exhaust side sensors....how did you run them? Where is the return from the catch can? sorry I have no idea when it comes to FFIM....

Clean WRX overall and nice Supra engine!

I split the harness back to the firewall so nothing runs over the valve covers, I regrouped the wires and ran them along the fender and under the intake. I like it alot better this way. I think that I am going to try and hide all the wiring on my next build. The catch can hoses are ran under the intake as well so you can't see them from the top. I can't wait to blow this engine so I can do my next build.

May I be allowed to critique a bit?:sarcasm:
I don't like the Subarus at all, so I won't judge it.
But your Supra's bodykit looks :3d_frown::3d_frown:

 

[simpsons7s]

It may not be for everybody, but it is for me.:icon_bigg

Atleast there could be some wider rims and some nice fogs in the front bumper. Last thing would be a even and shiny bumper.
THEN it'd be nice even IMO

You barely have any wires showing as it is!!!:aigo: Man i just got done with mine but i have wires and crap everywhere...(stock intake manifold)....so looking at yours definately makes me want to go FFIM myself...Looks great! I am not a big body kit guy either but I think yours looks great.....I have seen way too many duct taped civic kits in town :biglaugh: One more question...are those 1JZ coils on it? or some other brand?
