lol.. came in and had to backtrack to see wtf a "snowman" was..
after reading a few pages I had the dejavu feeling that I got the last time a gal's drunk husband walked in and spewed garbage for about 20 minutes and ended up in a divorce the next month...
it was so odd.. could have been him...
Just a note... there is a group buy going on for blinker covers (I bought another set to replace the one that disappeared...) and sunshades (like I have on my car).
I think there is only one spot free for sunshades...
87 Supra in garage on stands awaiting me to find time for it... (blue hard top NA)
90 Supra pulling winter duty until I replace the wife's van
88 Supra being a garage/shop queen still....
yeah.. I know what you mean :D
There is really only one reason I put prices and actually talk money in regards to my car. Not bragging, not bitching.. but its a reality check.
I have sold 2 cars to young people with the dream of owning that kick-ass Supra. Both of them I talked to for extended periods of time to make sure...
damn.. thats a hard question, because I bought it for 6000 almost 5 years back, did 4500 in bodywork (no paint) followed by just slighlty under 10,000 in body work + paint + body kit + new exterior parts (all included in that 10,000) about 2 years after first messed up body job (this time its...

I wanted to avoid 6 pucks. Let me point out something though... remember that this question depends a LOT on what you have for drivetrain. W58? R154? 7MGTE? 7MGE? 2J????
Should never ask a question like that without putting your specs down.. thats...
Bottom end built (from oil pan to head gasket (not head)) will be roughly 2000.00 + shipping from Ontario. Not ebay.. I couldn't get them to "speak" on the phone. The guy I am getting the short block built with told me all the stuff I was going to ask him about prior to my asking and corrected a...
Welcome to the club!
Was looking at the photos and wonder why you curved the crossover pipe over the hot side of the turbo instead of in front of the cold side? Interesting pipe work though.
Where's the rest of the car : )
The good part is, you can always do it later, better, for less, because you learn more as you go. (if your so inclined).
I waited for 20 years while my kids grew but never let the "own a Supra" dream die.
Good luck!
Chrysler builds faulty steering all the time... lol. Google Dodge Death Wobble...
Im not a welder nor a metallurgist... (did I spell that right?), but the steering knuckle isn't something I would play with personally..
And... just to reference the smart ass remark about seatbelts not being in...
you mean cleaning up the engine bay? ABS isn't truly a necessity.. I grew up without it.
Just curious.. if you actually wanted to shorten it, isn't the design slightly generic? There is probably one that has the same specs that is shorter on a different vehicle. Haven't looked at it, but a lot...
Okay.. I have all parts figured out now, so latest update...
Work done on car since October:
HDS Coilovers - (1200.00 + 540.00 installation)
Brembo Rotors (F & R), Steel Braided Lines (purchased 3 years ago), New pads - (500(ish) + 720 installation) *did not do calipers
Replace and Repair...
Wondering... do I need to do anything special with the flywheel for that clutch i am getting? (Haven't seen its condition, but suspect after 30,000 km minimum wear (dont know if they touched it at rebuild) not sure if I will need to replace or recondition it...
I thought mine would be different, but it looked identical. I can see the 90 tag to see what amps it was pushing to see if they are identical, but everything bolted up as if it all was the same. My 88 is thicker (there is a bigger shield on the back) so it fits, but not as easily, however the...
I think it can be done, but it's a lot of work and money that isn't thought to be worth it. Probably make a more street able car if you succeed, but I think you need to have a lot of time and money to waste. I wouldn't try it in a mark3, maybe a markiv.
Either way, once you get it started, will...
Stock bov with a stock intercooler is going to be a problem with a 57 trim and that setup? (My intercooler is stock for a year)
Just wondering because normally you don't add the aftermarket bov until you upgrade the intercooler.
