Parts swapping between the project car (red ‘88) and what I’m hoping will be my daily driver this summer (black ‘87). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes I do. I have the head loosely on but I have not confidence that I'm not missing something and the factory manual does not have as many pictures as I would like. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm reaching out to see if there are any local Supra guys out there that may help another owner out. I'm a bit over my head with a motor rebuild. I have build many motorcycle engines but this thing is different and I don't have confidence in myself putting it all together. Is there anyone...

I finally started putting my motor together. Step 1: new oil pump! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I cleaned and laid out parts. I will get this motor together eventually. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm interested just because it's in nice shape. I'm thinking I might offer him some cash and see if he will bit. I was thinking around the $2k mark as well, it's nice but not a desirable combo of options (or lack of). I would detail the car and drive it till my project Supra is drivable Sent...

This morning I met a fellow Supra owner after chasing him down in a parking lot. I have seen this car around from time to time and finally got to chat with the owner. He bought the car a few years ago in Florida and spends his winters there (did I mention he is 87). But he recently bought...

I had my shortblock freshened up by Bloss Machine in Kirkville (east of Syracuse). They cleaned up the head but I'm not going to a metal gasket so they didn't have to machine it as much. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Last night I uncovered mine after it has been waiting covered up in the garage for 1-1/2 years. Now that I have forgotten how the motor went together I think it's time to assemble it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So the 57 vs the 60 is the "trim" which is a different wheel, correct? So my 60-1 could be rebuilt using the 57 trim wheel? My '88 roller did not come with the harness or ECU so I went with the '91 electrical because the only think I needed was the ECU (it is from a auto car). I didn't...

This is my first turbo car build so I’ll try and hold back the total noob questions. I am using a ’91 turbo motor in a ’88 turbo targa roller. I’m using a ’91 gray connector ecu and the stock 5 speed trans that was in the ’88 (R154, I believe). I am pick up the short block from the shop...

I have my motor out and stripped down. I figured since it's out I might as well replace the head gasket, and if I'm going to pull the head I might as well fully disassemble it to make sure everything is within spec. So I have a short block on the engine stand and I would like to bring it...

I am now the proud owner for two Supras without engines. lol Pulled the engine from the '91 on Sunday... there are a lot of hoses and wires on car engines! I have rebuild dozens of motorcycles and ATV's over the years but this is my first car build. The motor will be pulled apart for...

Hi Everyone Just like many others my Supra project started on good old Craigslist. I have rebuilt dozens of motorcycles and ATVs over the years but this time I felt like trying to go through a car. I spotted a Black ’91 that had been stored for several years and needed some work for...
