Yeah that big turbo is in my 91. The one I'm rebuilding right now is the 90. Two different Supras. And I'm thinking about trading the Probe GT for another one lol... The 90 is going to stay completely stock for the most part so I can have another reliable daily. The 91 is the powerhouse :)

Finished up the engine. It's ready for the trans to be bolted up and dropped back in the car.

I'll be so happy when mine is at that point. Must be a wonderful feeling knowing you are so close!

Did a two tone from what I can tell? I like the look on the Mk3.

Have you not scene the build thread ?

The engine bay is black that's it oh also my mirrors and spoiler are going to be black but only because i didn't have a choice to keep them the same white as the car.

That looks... painful, to say the least. I've sat in a seat like that on a mini-sprint one time, I can't imagine driving a street car with a seat like that. Then again, that's what, about 55 lbs gone?

I have not. I don't browse the build threads very often (would be on here way too much), but it looks like from the nose panel down your car is black. Or is the bumper cover just off?

I gotcha Leezy, that just seems painful otherwise. I guess the car has a lot more suspension than that kart did too...

Seat is not bad. I got something similar in my GTS which I drive at least 2-3 times a week. The problem I see is that you don't have slides so it would be rather uncomfortable to get in and out. Should've used the stock seats rails.

Does anyone know how much brake fluid do I need to change the brake fluid and clutch fluid? Also what brake pads do you recommend for normal street use? I've used Wearever Ceramic pads before on my other car and liked them actually.

My DD has a combo of Hawk HPS front and EBC Greenstuff rear, and I'm really liking both, especially the EBCs. Of course, it's very important to follow the break-in procedure carefully. Also, these are on my DD which weighs 1400 lbs less, but the compound should be the same regardless

Now that is something that isnt even in the same ballpark. Not only is my Miata around 1400 lbs lighter, but I also have a lightweight flywheel that I habitually use to engine brake everywhere and only use my brakes to come to a complete stop 70-80% of the time. They looks practically new, even though its the first thing I did to the car in 06.

lol yea Just wanted to get an idea on how hard you are using them and how much life is still left in them. I will try out those pads when I can just wanted to get an idea on what brands are good and such. I plan on replacing the rotors with good pads in the near future but right now I want to replace the brake and clutch fluid, think about 5 quarts of Dot 3 will be enough to change both?
