The look the same as those, except that the bezels are black. Ben

So I ordered three Auto Meter Z series 52mm gauges yesterday. I got a mechanical boost, electric oil pressure, and electric water temp. I plan on mounting them in the stock locations behind the glass, and these should look alright since they're black-faced and bezeled. Now to decide on...

Ok, I have decided not to mount the boost gauge in the cig lighter spot. Instead, I think I will replace my stock boost, water temp, and oil pressure gauges with aftermarket ones in the stock locations. What size will I need to put them in there like the attachement? 52mm or 60mm? I...

You've convinced me on mounting my double din unit in the stock stereo location. :icon_bigg I think I'll put the boost gauge in the cig lighter spot, the neo at the ashtray, and the rest in the glove box. I'll leave enough slack in the neo cord to be able to put it in the glove box when...

I need some help/suggestions on where to mount everything in my 89 Supra. I will have the following items, and I do not want a pillar pod. I am not fully opposed to putting the boost gauge in place of the stock unit, although it won't look super clean. The cig lighter and ashtray locations...

I am currently having a lot of work done to my car (see build thread), but it has been mainly focused on the engine bay. I have decided to also have suspension work done, and have ordered h&r springs, illumina struts, st sway bars, ss traction arms, and ss sway end links. What else do you...

Boxed up and ready to go! This bad boy ships on Friday, and should be in Keith's hands by next Friday. It's all up to Keith then to make the magic happen. I plan on staying out of his way and letting him do his thing. Here are some pics of the 7M in the box. Thanks to Pat at...

Uh oh...what do we have here? Is there something in that box?

Update -- I spoke with my friend Keith who will be performing the swap, and he can get me in soon. So I contacted Pat at LegendofAces and he will be finalizing the rebuilt next week, so Keith should have the engine within 2 weeks. I'm hoping to have her all swapped out, running, and back...

Will it really get that much worse if I take the proper precautions? She is garaged as well. Ben

That's what I was thinking. I'll look into the godspeed. Ben

I haven't dealt with it yet, but it's there. My rear inner fenders are rusting away, so much so that there is a hole in the driver side from the fender to the spare tool pocket. I was holding water in the back spare well, so that has started to rust as well, although not as bad. And there is...

Most of you know that my car is out of commission, awaiting a Legend of Aces rebuild, and a Lipp Boss Jr turbo. I previously thought that I had everything covered, but I forgot about the radiator. The last time I drove the Supra she started spitting out coolant at the rear of the block. I...

Thanks for all of the interest. It's mid February, and we just had a taste of 60° weather here in Wisconsin. It got me thinking of the Supra and the day that I'll finally be able to drive it. It's back to being cold, and I found out that the battery has died, oh well. I'm having Pat at...

As those of you that have checked out my build thread know, last July I purchased my first Supra, an 89 Turbo 5 speed. Since September she has been out of commission, sitting in the comfort of my garage while the trusty 4Runner gets me through another winter, only this time the runner has to...

Man, I really am getting anxious to get this engine in, and to get driving once all the snow/ice/salt are gone! I spoke with Pat today at LoA and the engine should be ready to ship by next Monday. Now I just have to coordinate with Keith when he can work on it. I think his Supra is...

Things have somewhat slowed down on this project, but I think that's mainly due to the fact that I've ordered and received everything that is necessary for the build. I got the Neo, the wiring harness, the AFPR kit, and the egr blockoff. Pat will be working on assembling the engine this week...

Pat informed me today that he received some of the goods going into my build. Some pics are below. I received my MKIV fuel pump, and will be ordering the AFPR kit from SS soon, along with an Innovate wideband kit. I spoke with Rustin at Boomslang and they are making me a plug and play wire...

So anyway, on to the pics. I will apologize for the crappiness, but the turbo is shrink wrapped so nicely, that I don't really want to open it right now. But here it is, in all of it's shrink wrapped glory! Thanks for checking out my build thread. I'll post better pictures when I...

Well in Wisconsin there aren't emissions tests on 89 vehicles. Ben
