So I am trying to restore some pieces on my 89 Supra but I am not sure where to look.
First is on the window trim. I went to a local junkyard and got the missing pieces to complete the rear window trim, but I noticed that there is some kind of rubberized coating that is peeling off. I also...
Just to be clear I am going to Butte and doing the Honda Pact program. It is much more respected than UTI and Wyotech. Not to mention it is much more affordable. And on top of that Honda has many opportunities to move around, just depends on hard you work. I have talked to people that work for...
I guess the way I look at it is I rather put money into a that I actually like and enjoy driving around rather than I car that I do not care for
This is not my first project car, I fully rebuilt a 70 Chevelle with my dad. That's where the issue lies. With the Chevelle I can find parts...
But for me to fix up any car at this point I would need a loan. I mean I could save up the money but that would take forever, and I want a project car while I am going to automotive school. I mean yes the Supra is more expensive than a little Honda Civic, but I didn't want something everyone...
Well I mentioned what I was thinking about doing on this thread. But in general I like to get as many viewpoints as possible in the JDM since its a very shady business.
Agreed. I'll definitely stick with the 7m, I just hope the turbo and tranny and everything else is good after I fix the block. This car could turn into a money pit real fast. If the block isn't any good I was looking into JDM, but some of those sites are pretty shady
I'm not sure what condition my turbo is in. I'm just in the brainstorming process right now cause I'm pretty busy with work and school
How much was it to convert to the 2jz?
I am new to the Supra world. I recently bought an 89 turbo 5-speed. The car does not run, the owner before possibly threw a rod. I am currently trying to decide to rebuild or buy another engine. But all the research on the 7mgte makes me hesitant to keep this car. I live in CA and a 1jz would...
I have been researching a lot recently and the more I find the more it seems that the 7mgte is very unreliable, even if it is well maintained. If i could get a 2jz to smog, I may go down the engine swap road.
Well there is hope, I found a place out of Sac who will rebuild the engine for $1,300. They even warranty it for a whole year. That might be my best bet, but for all the other parts I guess I will have to get them one by one.
Yea the plan was to try and work with what I have, but I wanted to explore all my options. If my block is okay I may end up rebuilding it. But otherwise I feel like the JDM will be the next best option. When you order it on there you can add on the wiring harness for only $100 more
