On another note, I got word from all aspects.
The Dyno Day is being officially moved to SUNDAY MARCH 20.

We're being combined with another dyno day so there should be around 30 cars there.
Pulling starts at 9 and goes all day!

 

[rabrownmk]

Freakin sweeet! Whats the other group? And what time should WE be there?

 

[sixpatch]

We should definitely all get there at 9 so they can group the types of cars together to dyno them. Plan to get there at 0900 and hang out all day.

March 20th ? Thats one day before my birthday ! Would be nice if my motor was broke in by then.

Ryan , just let me know what's up . Remember well need the engine in the car for the first mock up. We don't want your turbo clocked wrong or anything.

 

[sixpatch]

That'd be a sweet birthday present.

Mark...roger that. Thanks man. Trying to get the red one over there and working first before putting VTEC in the white one.

 

[White Zombie]

ROFLMAO !!!!!
VTEC !


Any way , does anybody have a spare turbo manifold for sale ?
Need one for my sons car.

Hey Mark,

I have one on one of my 2 spare 7MGTE's. It is beginning to look like I will be parting those engines out instead of selling them in one piece anyway. Both would need a rebuild. How soon do you need the manifold ? If your not in a rush, I could bring it to the Meet. If you are in a rush, I could pull it and chk shipping. I do hate parting out 1 complete and 1 nearly complete engines, but it does seem more and more like that is the way the gavel will fall. LMK

Which brings to mind, I also have 2 sets of sawblades. One set is polished, and look as good as any of the other metal I polished on my MK III, they are in perfect shape with vg center caps. Other set was painted white "not by me" and really might just take them to the scrap yard for the $$.

Hey Mark, I have the original one from my car. It's has been ceramic coated-black for high temp. It's in fine shape, just sitting on the shelf. I have know idea what it would be worth so make an offer if you like. I can check on the shipping cost, the box shouldn't be too big but I don't know about the weight factor.

Also, just to throw this out, I have the 3' SS custom exhaust from my old build. No DP, it comes off the stock CT 26 turbo elbow.

Hey, I know it's a little off of the present topic(s) but does anyone know why my favorite Supra Video has been pulled? I can't find
the old montage video of "Project Cherry Widebody" anymore. I need my fix!

 

[White Zombie]

Fred and Mark , if you could PM me the ship cost to 23666 and a price , I'll see what I can do . But I'm not in a rush so I could really wait till the May meet and pick them up that way if it's not too much trouble.

Mark I'd rather you didn't part the motor too , let's see what happens closer to the May in May . If all works out I'll pick em up then. Thanks guys.

Chase ! You got the sickness buddy !

 

[sixpatch]

You know you're a supra owner when you know that the Project Cherry Widebody video has been taken off youtube.
And if you know the owner's thread location so you can post a complaint about it!

 

[Davismj711]

Got it Mark. No part out.

Sounds like Fred's piece is nicer anyway, coated and all ^^ The engines I have are 1) Pulled from my MK III @ 113,000 miles, no smoke ran good, but had a hogged up key area on the crank nub. This caused the crankshaft pulley to wobble on the crank. I have a good 6m crank that goes with that engine. 2) Pulled from my R154 donor car, had no turbo, was converted to run w/o it. Never started it or know what internal shape it is in, the seller did say it ran. I had picked up a yard engine to rebuild while the woobly pulley one was still in the car, reason I have 2. I also have the rear diff from the 5 speed car.

Jordan, et all

We need to get the meet thread up asap

 

[SWD Fredester 3]

I'll see if I can get you a shipping cost tomorrow Mark. As far as price, just make an offer. I have a ton of parts off of my old build including the intercooler, piping and HKS BOV. I have spread a few pieces across the country to members here. Never posted a for sale thread because I thought I'd hold on to the parts in case someone close needed something.

I am close Fred... not sure if i need anything, just wanted to point that out

Getting closer to a startup?

Close but no cigar YET! Just have to shovel a few more $$$$$ into the old girl. Had a bad winter here work wise, plenty of work, just couldn't do it with the cold and snow. Typically the Supra fund ended up being the living fund. Back full bore now so it shouldn't be too long.

 

[White Zombie]

Damn Fred ! I just bought a HKS from driftmotion too !!! Wish I knew you were selling , OH well.

I finished my wiring last night ... Holy crap ! I wanna Strangle Joe for talking me into the whole wiring thing. Anyway , tomorrow I'll finish modifying the FFIM to have working vacuum ports , then fire her up ! Woot !!
