    steering mod , think it would work?

    I can think of only one guy around here I would trust. He welded the cap pieces that held down the glass that went on the rover that found the titanic. I am a welder by trade and I don't trust myself with them.

    Sorry, I didn't feel like going over the entire thread again. But just so we are certain, its forged NOT cast? lol

    steering mod , think it would work?

    I am gonna be following this very closely. I have an extra set of everything to play with...too bad I am inexperienced with welding cast, I mainly do aluminum

    Good clutch setup for durability?

    I will do that! Thank you for the help guys! I am changing out all the oils and then I will run it. I do not plan on drifting all that much, but I must say the temptation is there! From my understanding (at least what my friends say) unsprung isn't a great daily as is, so that may not be...

    Good clutch setup for durability?

    I am going to start by getting it into the garage and getting fluids drained. Hopefully that will give me some indication of what is going on. Based on my (limited) knowledge I keep getting the feeling it is the clutch. Just from the way it engages, it feels completely different than earlier in...

    Good clutch setup for durability?

    Sorry about that, middle of finals for me so I am a bit scatter brained. I am running a 1jz-gte with I believe an R154. I am still a new owner to the car so I am still slightly ignorant/new at identifying everything. I am not sure of the differences between a 6-puck or others, I am a diesel...

    Good clutch setup for durability?

    I want to daily my supra and drift in the spare time...about one weekend every other month, give or take. I think I wrecked my clutch at the track today, it has a tone of "shudder" and then kinda clunks when it engages and I get moving. Doesn't sound good! lol Right now there is a springless...

    Drift suspension intel

    I can personally vouch for GOOD coils. I went drifting today (on track, no street drifting here) and I had a ton of oversteer and body roll. If I keep drifting there will be a lot of changes needed, starting with new coils, a fender roll, and bushings.

    Drift suspension intel

    He should have taken you to school instead of that show. That was a long and difficult sentence to read.

    steering mod , think it would work?

    I am curious to see how this goes. As a professional fabricator (my medium of choice is Aluminum, dont work with cast anything much) I do not see it being as safe as I would like. I have two complete front ends to play with though so I am willing to sacrifice some parts if it leads to better...

    Engine dies/died

    I think that I have it narrowed down to the alternator just like you guys are suspecting. Battery with a charge worked fine, ran awesome, but it also looked like the system is not recharging the batter now that it is in. Looks like I am off to order a GS300 alternator when I get a chance, I just...

    Engine dies/died

    Well at least a battery is cheaper than an ECU...funny, the batteries in my Duramax just died too...3 of them will be a cheap trip! Napa can test alternators right?

    Engine dies/died

    My 1jz recently started dying randomly when coming to a stop, clutch in just idling. Then it got worse...it died at an intersection right by my house. all electronics stopped working, didnt even have hazards. i got it to fire up again and got it home and now it will not do anything. The boost...

    Building front end?

    I am pretty sure it is all original as far as I can tell. I did want to do bushings at some point anyway so I will add that to the list! Anyone know if these offer anything performance wise? http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-beechucamk3supra.php
