thinking about a turbo change too

not right now. I think the gt35r will do good for me since I'm only wanting to make about 480-500 rwhp on pump gas. Hopefully I can obtain this safely at about 17-18 psi.

Here are a few things that I've bought already.

I think I'm going to play hookie from work tomorrow and work on my wiring. I'll be sure and take some pictures for the picture groupies on here. I'm still waiting on some more info and suggestions from some of you jz guys out there. Don't be shy.........:biglaugh:

what are you, a freakin drug dealer?

No, just a hard working construction guy with no hobbies other than supras.........:biglaugh:

I've also had these at the house for over a month. The new stuff hasn't arrived yet. I may end up selling drugs to help fund this before it's over though. Do you need any lortabs or oc's?

This will be the how too hopefully Joe and Mark. I may withold a few important factors from you two so you won't make more horsepower than me, but I'll let you know most of what I learn...........:evil2:

A non drug using construction worker...............RIGHT! What the hell even is an OC? You got the shorthand down, don't try to fool me.

I too think you have a pretty full plate between now and Texas. Don't worry Ryan.....I bet there will be a willing and ready 7M to get you to Texas if this build isn't finished.

Oxycotton. They are selling like hotcakes up here........I mean, if I was trying to sell them they would sell like hotcakes...........:biglaugh:

Scott, I need support and confidence, not rational thoughts..........:biglaugh:

Justin, I have alot of reasons for the 2jz bottom, but torque is one of them I guess, even though my 1jz has alot more torque than my 7m ever had.

Jay it's cool......you gotta pay the hired help somehow. I think it's great you get to use the total job monies on the supra, and pay the help with OC's. Stay with it, I know you and Ricky (there go some more OC's) can get it done in time.

If that's what it takes to get it done, I'd better go try and find some. Just say no to drugs.......unless you're on a tight deadline...........:biglaugh:

the best advise I can give you is to do the best you can to keep your parts seperated from Vonda's 7M parts. If any part comes into question, just seal a head gasket to the part. If it slides off, it's 7M.......if not it will be yours.

lack of torque finally getting to you? lol

No. Just looking to make more power on pump gas. That's all.

Otherwise, I would just run race gas more often.


I don't have a problem with the torque.

I do... I need alittle down low to move my 4000lbs lead-sled.

Jay.. Not a bad idea buddy. I'll be watching closely to see if I'm encouraged to take the plunge.

Like I said before. This car has more torque than my 7m ever had so I don't really know that I'm missing torque. I just want my car to be a little more powerful on pump gas and hopefully spool up my turbo a little quicker. I hope everything goes smoothly and I don't forget to order something causing me to wait for a week on parts.

That's funny Dave, but I know my brother would never post anything like that..........:yelrotflm

Shouldn't you be at the school making your wax filled styrofoam intake manifold?

Justin, I hope I'm loving it as much as I'm thinking I'll be loving it.....wait what?

I got a few packages in the mail today.
This first one is of a targa top that I got from too_stand. This is the third one I've had to buy because I took off with it not bolted in. Yeah, I know what ever. What can I do about it now? Paint it and be done with it.

I haven't opened it up yet. It's suppose to be red and that scares me...........:aigo:

Here's a picture of a few boxes everything came in. Some of the stuff is for Vonda's car so I won't post them in here. OOOOHHHH yucky yucky 7m parts.:biglaugh:

I've got a few more that are uploading now.

Well, you can never have too much lube or lubrication so here is mine.
p893883_1.jpg

No, I'm not going to put it in until I break the motor in, just in case you were wondering......:biglaugh:
Here is my new clutch disc. The one that's in there is still good, but while I've got it out, I'm replacing everything. I'll keep this one for later times, but I'm hoping not to need it for a couple of years.
p893883_2.jpg

I don't really know what these shiny things are. I hate shiny............:evil2:
p893883_3.jpg

I was also told my car would look better with these hood scoops located on the sides of my front fenders, so I guess I'll try it and see how it looks.........:dunno:
p893883_4.jpg

That's all I've got right now, but at least it's an update with pictures. I sure hope this gets me some boobies...........:biglaugh:
