What did you do to your supra today? Pics

[Doat]

Started removing the turbo and exhaust manifold to change my gaskets and replace the turbo oil feed/drain lines with the DM soft line kit and the actuator with an 11 psi actuator.

I got to the point of removing the oil drain but I'll save that bastard for the morning.

 

[Doat]

replaced the gaskets and actuator with an 11psi DM one and installed the soft line kit hoping there won't be any oil leaks and SUCCESS, no extra oil leaks other than my oil pan lol. For some reason the turbo sounds amazing now

Hopefully you guys can see the video.

From hot-mess to hot-NESS.

 

[Doat]

What intercooler kit did you get?

 

[PhxBlue]

Still stock. Replaced just the upper pipe till I save enough for new IC.

Just got my 7mgte to swap in my na mk3. And created weld porn

Nothing really special, installed a new blower motor and reset the breaker for it (thanks go out to Dick Lambert for his writeup on R&R'ing the motor and especially the existance & location of the breaker for it).

I am looking at IC kits trying to find something that is bolt on but seems like all of them need some type of modification.

Ya, there seems to be a different classification for 'Bolt-on' than I am aware of. These 'Bolt-on' IC kits somewhere and somehow require some form of modification.

I hope they don't start bastardizing the word "Drop-in". Then you know they are stooping to a whole other level.

I know I asked about those "bolt on" kits too and everyone says you gotta do some cutting or relocate the overfill bottle to the other side but that might be just for the pre 89 MK3s.

Doat, the DM kit you have to relocate the overflow bottle, oil cooler. And horns, plus make mounts for it, but it's easy work..

Sounds like a major pain in the ass lol, how the hell do you relocate all of that stuff?

 

[Backlash2032]

You just have to look at where everything can go and make super simple brackets. It didn't even take me two days, first time lol.

So then I should have my IC install done in 2 weeks lol.

Honestly id rather have the old style intercooler. There's a cluster Fuck of piping on that side with the new style

Yea that is the kit I have been leaning towards getting I want something as close to bolt on as possible I don't have an FFIM so I don't need an intercooler with the pipes at both ends.

 

[Backlash2032]

Idk, I'm just not a fan of how it looks, or fits, with the pipes on both ends. Difficult to get around the bumper crash bar and such. Would be way easier and cleaner looking with the other style intercooler, plus you're future proofing for a ffim

Tell ya what Doat, if you wanna buy the old style intercooler, I'll trade ya mine, mounts included haha
