No unfortunetly I got nothing. I filed a police report, and they said they couldn't do anything. Even though I gave the dated pictures proving the parts were there and then again dated pictures showing they were missing. Gay.

Thank you very much. Where the hell have you been dude. I called you a couple times. What have you been up too?
I caught a case, and had to move. I had the sup registered with a 10 day temp plate back in oct but my car was too low to drive in a bay to run it through emissions, I was too busy at work (60 hrs 7 days a week) to adjust the ride height, temp ran out, so I parked it. I fliped the script at work, so I'm on a little vacation now.
I'm glad to see you're going 2JZ, your're car is evolving so quickly!!

I cought wind that your selling your supra?!?! Why when you just came so far and all that you just went threw to get it running and then the theft recovery! I'm confused...

Basically it goes something like this.
The economy sucks.
I have rent and school loans to pay.
And I have another car.
If the car sells for what I want for it I would take it and look down the road a couple years to pick up another chassis for the 2j. If it doesn't oh well ill get through these tough finical times like I have before. Basically 11 monthe over 10,000 and I drove it for three weeks before I took it off the road for the winter. That's as costly as a crack habit!!!!!
Hopefully no one wants it and I can drive it next spring with the 7m or 2j.
I guess I'm kinda choosing the easy way out. But man not being able to pay weekly bills and having rent raised winter coming with oil heat....ahhhhh.
We will see.

get naked & boost a supra
i just read through your thread and i'll tell you, that is some story!
you have had crazy bad luck with the car, but that didn't keep you down.
good luck with your sale if that is what you are still doing.

car is no longer for sale!!!!!!!!!!! i have made some headway in my life, and some good things are starting to happen so no need to get rid of my baby. the motor is STILL for sale. someone buy it so i can justify the 2jz install!

thank you. now that ive brought her back to life its time to to what i wanted to in the first place....make her into what i want....and i want the 2j installed.
2 more i found....i know i need to paint the sides...i think im going to go bomex sides and rears so ive been pitting off paint.
so im kind of in the research phase the next part of this build. since project burnt supra is over i am moving on with the swap to a jz series motor. since no ones bought my built 7m ill probably buy a roller and ill put it in that,
now my thoughts are this:
i have a 2jzge. i dont really want to go the na-t route like doc did(no offense please)
1. so if i wanted to take advantage of the dirt cheap price i paid for the 2jzge i thought 1jz head harness and aristo ecu with a wiring job done by dr. tweak
2.or source a gte head wiring harness and ecu another dr. tweak wiring job
3.either head with an aem ems since i believe it is kaizen that has such a great deal on them.
both the 1j or gte head would be boltd onto the ge block either built for boost with low comp. piston and all the goodies. or ill buy a gte rotating assembly
4th choice screw the na motor i have and pony up for a complete jdm swap
all options would be installed with a single turbo, and supporting fuel mods.
now opinions, rants. thoughts ready.............go

Well, I take it you want to go with the quickest route so I say go with what you have. Keep the ge block and source a 1j, or 2j head and be done with it. You want to drive the car by summer, correct?
What about a custom twin turbo system, utalizing two vf39s and a 4" exhaust? Two of those puppies should spool rather quick (seing how subarus with .5l less displacement and a lower CR spool them wicked quick) and if we can get them working sequentially, it would turn out amazing.
i shoulda added that as option 5.
ctsupra...id still need a rotating assembly as i dont want to boost high comp pistons

You know you can run the GE off 7M electronics right? Do a little searching, there's a plethora of this info out there. I myself have an NA-T 2JZ will be building for NASA competition here sooner or later. I plan to use the 7M electronics into a Megasquirt, the only thing I will do is get rid of the MAF for a MAP.
Juhanis just completed his swap a little while ago and he's running 14psi with meth and 3* of base timing I THINK, not sure. His car's running great was the last I heard. Personally i WILL be putting forged aftermarket GTE pistons in mine and drilling the block for the squirters since road racing sees alot of prolonged high revs and heat
great info...i definitely knew about the 7m electronics aspect of a 2j na t. i read doc33 whole build as some of my research. im still not sure yet...the moneys there i just wanna use it wisely.
Your car looks great! I will one day buy another midnight blue Supra:love:! Glad to see you got your car back
