Bought some DG500s or whatever. Coils from a crown Vic. Super excited to get them in and wired! Hopefully I'll have a fast car again!

Relocated power steering reservoir and added cooler, installed intake pipe that runs where power steering stuff was. It's Shiney and I like it

Mocked up the turbo today.. ;-)

 

[Doat]

I tried fixing my exhaust leak and ended up breaking the bolt for the oil dipstick, so I made up a bracket that bolts with the coolant block off plate on the turbo and it holds the bracket for the oil dipstick in place. Found that like 4 of my exhaust studs came out with the nut then I put some nord lock washers on them and torqued them a little more than spec out of frustration and then fired her up. STILL HEAR TICKING. I am just going to deal with it until I do my 2jz swap.

 

[hvyman]

sure the ticking is not from the valves?
also you should have put a new toyota gasket and new studs and nuts.


installed the new antenna for my alarm and re soldered all apexi tt circuit board and got my turbo timer working again. mercedes bkk will be installed next week ))

I second the valves. May just need a simple valve adjustment to correct it. Check the tsrm odor Haynes manual for procedure.

put some more break in miles on my motor and clutch.
also trying to track down some misfire issues.

 

[Doat]

I can hear the valves ticking it sounds normal like everyone else's it sounds like it's from the downpipe area but when I tried putting high temp RTV to just see if it was it I still had the tick.

Went to a car show. My husband's family is big into cars, we brought four along:


My Supra
My step-dad's 46 ford (he did complete restoration including paint)
My husband's 95 SC300 (all original)
69' Mustange (complete restoration done by my husband, my brother-in-law, and their Dad)

Out of the four, we didn't bring home a single trophy! My seats are cooked and cracked, and I can't get the guys to clean up the engine bays!! Well, Scott (brother-in-law) did win some cupcakes in a cake walk, so all was not a loss..

There was a Nissan 370z there, which shocked me because you don't see many Japanese cars at a car shows around here. It did win a trophy.

 

[Chris_87_Turbo]

It happens like that sometimes. I use to judge car shows and have attended many. Seen some cars win that shouldn't have and seen some get moved into classes that they didn't belong in

Love that mustang... Those are one of my favorite cars.

 

[A-to-the-J]

While everybody is doing bigger things...I'm just here happy I have a rear wiper. LoL. I painted it as well as my windshield cowl.

I actually did it a couple days ago. Car got dirty real quick

Painting the front wiper arms next.

EDIT: BTW. I think the rear wiper should be 19", not 17" like Auto zone said. Going to buy some Silblade wipers now.

I redid the plywood in the trunk replaced with 3/4" finally got sick of the squeaking, removed all bracket transferred over and added extra support for the weight. Redid the wiring but turns out I have a short from one of my speakers pinned it down to rear right. Checking that out in the next couple of days.

Getting ready for MA Performance's Proving grounds, going to bring a lil more than I have in the past, so I needed a little add-on.

 

[Scot]

Just installed my new HKS cat back duel tips!
Thank you Driftmotion for getting it shipped to me quickly!

 

[loc182]

Love that exhaust Scot. One day I will get one of my very own. Hats off to HKS for making an option that looks almost stock!

Did a transmission filter change for my auto. Not sure what the deal was with the giant filter I pulled off...
(Top came off car, bottom is not OEM, but it looks the same as the current Toyota part.)

It frightens me to see a Supra with a hitch - can't you Minnesotians go anywhere without your boat??
