I race a silver 89+ mk3 a whille back, last year around summer time on roselle, he said he just got it with 60k+ and has exhaust + intake. I was in black 87 with mk4 rims. First race I started pulling on him in 3rd, then next light he left me in the dust, I missed second. I love racing other supra's, more competitive. Was this guy you boost fiend?

[oneandgone]

Thanks Adam! Full details and pics of the car are here...

:evil2:

[supra8795]

Hey if anybody in the area wants to meet up this saturday if its nice let me know.

[supraman420]

Whats up? I'm from a northern suburb of Chicago and frequent Dekalbto visit the GF. I'm getting ready to swap a 7mgte in my N/A chassis. If anyone is from the Chicagoland area and you want to chill, and cruise after my swap, I'm down.

[Push]

Just sold the 87' MK3 Turbo today.... :( I still have the 7mgte 4-door though ;)

[supra8795]

I know Push is down for a cruise, anybody else.

[supraman420]

Gimme about three weeks! Where would you guys meet? Anyone near Chicago?

[boost fiend]

im donw for a weekend cruse. i know a few area in town here to ride through. lets get a few guys together. a buddy of mine at work has a srt-4 and wants to try to hang with us? maybe we should show him how its done?:evil2:

[supraman420]

I should be removing my engine at that point. But maybe I'll take my Geo... hahaha

[Toyota Drive]

Well, depending on how my car is then, i can come out. I just got it running good again, and the damn thing has somthing that sounds like a knock, but its comming from the top end. Its not tapping valves either, its a knocking noise. I may have that sorted out soon so keep this updated.

[Spaniard]

I'm in Mundelein by Vernon Hills and sorta close to Gurnee, up way north. I go to Chicago all the time, but I'm in Daytona Beach for school. Hope to be up there for Spring Break and the whole summer with my 1JZ twin turbo on t-28's.

[Toyota Drive]

Grrr! Rod knock ownes me! Now im down for a while. Ill have enough money by the end of April to do a rebuild, but im still gonna have a horrid suspension problem; very blown front shocks. Also, a good friend of mine just picked up an 82 Celica Supra and were gonna be doin a 7M swap on that, so there will be more in the area soon. I will still come out if you guys meet.

[supraman420]

Hey Toyota Drive. Are you going to do a 7mge swap? If so, I have all the parts. I'm doing a 7mgte swap. LMK what you need.

[forcefed]

I will be down soon but have new coilovers that need to go on and getting the car totally repainted in 2 weeks!

[supra_stephe]

hey, i'm in champaign. so are a bunch of other supras

[boost fiend]

i have been seeing a ton of supras on the highway around here latley.

anyone here use the bypass between alpine and meridian? if ya do, im the silver one with the black sawblades w/silver centers.

[supra_stephe]

I have a bunch of relitives in Rockford, but I have not taken my car up there for like two years, If I go my mom drives.

[Toyota Drive]

Hey guys, you should go check out this post about blackhawk. Most of you from around Rockford will probably know aobut the track already, but there is a meet there on the 15th and 16th. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16073

[Spaniard]

Well it's a month away from Chicagoland Supra Drive, I'll see you all over there. Hope to see a good turn-out. My car will be done in a week from today tuned. So I'm excited. And then, dont forget about Chi2k6! Lets make it big guys!

[boost fiend]

i plan to be at chi2k6 and just might have to see about going to blackhawk.

no to figure out how to haul the drag slicks in the hatch that far.......

[nschultz0124]

I am in Villa Park and just registered on the site. my car is a burgandy 87 tubo 5 speed targa. Hopefully it will be done with all the repairs it needs to go to the meets.

[supra8795]

I hope to see you all this summer at the meets. Also SP will be having a dyno day comeing up i think april 22 if anybody is interested in going. Im hoping to get the new turbo in and running by then but it will be close. If anybody would like to come down and give me a hand that would be great too. But I think i will be getting the 62-1 out this week so i can drop the new turbo and manifold on this weekend. As soon as i get the new turbo on i would like to hit up byron too a couple times before chicago meet so i can get an idea on how the car will perform. So if anybody would like to do that too just let me know.

[supraman420]

Hey guys! It seems like yesterday that I was driving around in my supra. Well, I bought a whole bunch of parts to turbo my 7MGE, and sold the supra before I could perform the conversion. I have a few parts needed for the swap and since you guys are local, maybe someone here would be interested. I have a rebuilt turbo and elbow, all the good stuff. I also have an R154 in good condition. If you guys need any parts and arn't familiar w/ my for sale thread PM me.
If people are willing to pick parts up, I can work w/ you on price.
EVERYTHING is in GREAT condition.
Thanks all!
Justin

[forcefed]

how many miles on that r154? Everything shift good? how much If I picked it up. I might be interested
thanks
