    Need help with 1.5jz build

    Vacuum leak FTMFL. Sounds like what you have judging by the surging idle. And it sucks that the water pump decided to pop its little diaphram cherry :( Oh well, hopefully you will have the new one soon enough. The starter won't take no time or money it sounds like since it's still under...

    Need help on deciding my future plans

    Sadly, I think there is just no hope for the auto tranny unless you send it somewhere to have it built. Like I said with the w58's, it's kind of hit or miss with them. I know a guy that broke 2 @ 440whp, and others that have broken them with less, and another guy that said he made over 700...

    Need help on deciding my future plans

    The biggest downfall on all MKIV NA-T's is the transmissions. If you are auto you are only good for about 320 hp and the 5-speeds are truely hit and miss with most blowing at about 4-450hp while I have seen a couple go 600+. I went ahead and got the 6-speed V160 though for when I got NA-T just...

    Need help on deciding my future plans

    It's gotta be GE plus a big single. First thing you gotta do though is a thicker headgasket. Thats all you have to do to the Motor. I know a couple guys that have made over 700whp with just a headgasket in the GE motor.

    Another huge high point and goal reached on the car was me taking the targa top off for the first time since I have owned the car. I have been dreading it from day one, cause I have feared that it got pinched in from the wreck. From my GREAT relief, I loosed the bolts, and it popped right off...

    This is directly copied from another forum, so if it sounds a little weird just ignore it! hahaha. Well, as it turns out, I did get to do a little bit of work to the good ole supra today! NOT much, but I did reach a huge goal in all for the car. That was putting the car back on the...

    Ok guys, well it has been far too long since I have posted anything in this thread and I do believe I have some pretty sweet pics of the car on the ground and rolled out of the garage that ya'll haven't seen yet. Unfortunately we are still not done yet as me and my dad both have been busy doing...

    Bored, and not trying to out do 9DMK3T or anything, just wanted to give it a shot. All I did different was leave the lugnuts and center caps silver and tinted the sidemarkers. Keylan

    Crazy bored today

    First off, your car looks AMAZING!!! One of my all-time favorite MKIII's. I decided to mess around with it in photoshop as well. Mainly wheel colors, but couple other small details as well. I re-did the hood, hope you don't mind, I just couldn't really make out the carbon fiber that well...

    ForcedTorque's New Look

    So Scott comes to me with a favor...... I hope I pulled it off well enough. I am still not 100% happy with it, but it looks much better than what I had going last night. Scott knows what I am talking about. Anyways, it's really amazing what paint and wheels will do for a car...

    Well the second, and most significant, thing that I did was my headlights. I was a little intimidated at first but once I started I was suprised at how easy it actually was. I don't have any pics of disassembly, but its pretty straigt forward. I just used a heat gun and heated up a section of...

    Its actually what my dad has been doing for years now. It is something that has crossed my mind about doing it, but instead I want to open my own custom fab shop really. I will probably still do it a little on the side though. Not full time like my dad did though. Keylan
