What did you do to your supra today? Pics

[rakkasan]

Installed driftmotion's custom intake

Any fitment problems? I'm curious specifically about it hitting the brake booster

 

[yhatzee89]

why not on the hard plastic came out good. doesnt look like how his came out, i used dawn to clean it up with a ruff pad and then followed up with asetone which cleaned it up even more and i did that til the cloth didnt pull up any crap and the used the adhesive promoter 2 light coats and then 3 light coats of paint came out as picture which is pretty good.

Yeah but the duplicolor is gonna end up scraping off.

I also started a color conversion in my truck and the duplicolor just isn't as good, and it would make me sad to see your car looking so great on the outside, but have the paint srcraped off inside
Go with the colorbond, you will be much happier me thinks, But it's your car

That is why mine doesn't close lol the latch doesn't hold it down.

Oh ok, yeah that's typical. In my last Supra I ended up just pulling the whole thing out cuz it didn't latch and then the spring broke. So I just pulled it out and made it that much deeper for my drink

Yes there is fitment issues, I cut the runners on the new manifold roughly in half then welded it straight to the lower runner firstly installing new bolts, studs are an option too but I went with bolts. Overall it's a nice manifold though, if you don't mind moddin stuff. I have another lower runner and can make another if anyone is interested, it'd cost about $500 with return of your lower runner

Couldn't you have just cut a section out of the lower runners and welded it back together? Or run a 4 runner booster?

Backlash- it was easier the way I did it w/o having to change booster or anything else and the ports on the runners of the plenum don't match the lower runners ports, after welding I re-ported the entire runner/plenum which isn't much to take off cuz the thickness isn't very much just any lips to catch air in manifold differences. Here's a few pics:
About 1.2" at the topside of the runner and 1.4 at the bottom (applicable to all runners) could have made it less but this is what I ended up with


About .15" gap from booster


.25"-.30" (varies due to curve of plenum) from proportioning valve


Currently using Camry throttle cable still about .75-1.00" too short. Q45 tps mounts to d.m. Throttle body (needs some modding), power steering fits just need to refab the feed adapter and I'm still figuring where to put res and lines to it. Mounts hks bov flange to intake pipe so it is positioned between rad fan shroud and pulley

I really liked having the -89 coin holder (works better as a cup holder lol) so I swapped over the lid and latch to it and now I just have to decide if I want to A) just use the med-grey console or B) cut out the bottom of the SG console. Im getting the console lid redone in black leather right now as well. What do you guys think?

I think what you really want is one on these lol

I should really make some more of them..

Yes

Today I checked spark plug condition and gap along with coil condition. Then I checked piping clamps then cleaned her up

Is it just a coin lid with a hole?

 

[Dan_Gyoba]

It's a replacement for the whole assembly. Stick in place and it's a decent cup holder. (That's my car in the photo. )

 

[yhatzee89]

It's so simple yet brilliant lol

 

[Doat]

With my lid it would flip the drink onto my shifter randomly lol

 

[yhatzee89]

I'll just be happy with the deeper coin holder, should I just cut the bottom out of my shadow grey console so it fits? Or use the med grey console?

If you cut the bottom out how are you going to secure it in place?

 

[yhatzee89]

Same screw hole that held it down in the first place, thats why it has that little "tube" thing that the screw recesses into on the 89+ coin holder.

Was test fitting some other stuff and I think this is an improvement over what I had before
Before:

After:

No cutting required

I always wondered how people were getting drinks to stay in the coin holder. Makes sense now, that extra half inch of depth makes all the difference.

That is what she said ;P

Today I manufactured my own resistor pack. About 5 hours of work and looks almost as good an a oem unit, needs to be cut down in height but overall I'm satisfied with it, especially with the cost of a new oem toyota unit.

 

[Doat]

that does look like an OEM unit, nice work.

I wish we got the digital dash in LHD or it was easier to convert it to LHD. Every tutorial I find is not quite a straight conversion they usually mix in their own stuff like navigation or some other gauge read out.
