Newbie! Well, not exactly.....

I bought my maroon 88 turbo targa new and upgraded to HKS boost control, fuel control and FCD in '90... then HKS MLS, of course. Suspension = Eibach 1" drop springs and HKS shocks, HKS 65 mm catback & been driving it thus ever since (on nice days). 23 to 25 mpg @ 90mph on hwy 5; San Jose to Long Beach nonstop - great car!
Now down for HG leak - block & crank back from machinist yest. Had a _very_ difficult time finding a competent machinist!
Bore had NO wear at 90k & hone marks undisturbed - no ridge at top of cylinders, bearings pristine. Mobile 1.............
I've read _every_ BHG thread on here that 'search' came up with.
This time, Cometic HG, mirror-finish head & deck (ie, #10 diamond lap), new Clevite bearings & PC rings. DP upgrade now, hi-flow cat & 3" exhaust soon.
Been hotrodding since 1962....guess I'll never learn..........

Welcome to sm. Been to any supra meets? Surprised that you've had the car for so long and just now finding sm.

Pics?

Mostly on syty.net 'cause I've been building a 2nd Typhoon (1st was stolen) and SF which I found marginally helpful.
Found SM while surfing for parts suppliers for my BHG.
Definitely a great site!
No Supra meets yet, watching the bay area for one. I'll try to get pix up...it's pretty sad currently - engine on stand, etc.....

We have the local region section to keep us with meets and stuff. It is too far but pacnw is a big meet. GL with the rebuild.
