ya. it would have to be my fav. sooo much good know how here

the answer to your wheel question should be in here http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=A&P=26 so it says 225/50/r16 for standard tires. previous owner may have gotten those different tires in their attempt to improve handling or road feel.

Sadness that this is getting parted. Tell me if there are any parts u think I might like ;) I'm totally going to find some of those station wheels for mine

depends on the size of your wheel... i have a set of 17'' work equips and i use rubber with a profile of 40 or 45 mm. There should be a sticker inside one of your door sills that will tell u what kind of rubber is recommended for standard wheels. Its not that big of a deal. a larger rear wheel...

hey man. just had a look thru this.. a lot of progress. pretty quickly. And obligitory "standing in the engine bay" pic. very funny. with the heatwrap. i used black heatproof paint and a thorough amount of that fiberglas wrapping on my exhaust manifold. also i have a fiberglass filled blanket...

In my limited experience id say ur onto a winner. Your turbo should spool like a beast. I'm excited to see how all this works out

bummer about the pistons but if your careful you should be fine. just remember that since you now have a mls head gasket you have made your pistons into the "fuseable link" in the chain and you therefore need to be careful with tuning. Read my build thread. it will give you some good info on...

seth i need a throttle body. and i want one of these. it is perfect for me. your work is amazing!!!

I'm also looking to make 500hp on pump gas. I've got a gt3582r with the .82 t3 rear housing ATM but am making a bunch of changes and want to get a quick spool valve and also i found a t3 divided rear housing with .82ar very cool. My aim is mainly for insane area under curve but hopefully it will...

I have a set of arias 9.0:1 cr forgies. i really liked the size of the ring lands. Ill post a piccy later when i get home from work. Also iirc they arent too heavy either. although i blindly stumbled into the choice of piston and compression im really happy with them now that ive learned a bit more.

wow thanks dude! yeah I'm good, as are all my friends and family. I was on the road when the flash flood occurred. shit got crazy but i got the hell out of there just in time. your in Warwick aren't u? did it get affected at all

wow i didnt know u had this whole thread going on. no wonder u dont have any updates on ur turbo a replica thread sounds like the guy who his ur car has some serious shit going on. mabye he murdered someone or did something real bad somewhere else in the past :s

try jacking under the tranny also to get a bit of lift and angle out of it. are u dropping engine and tranny in or just engine

hey guys wondering what your opinions are on acceptable coolant temps for boosted 7m's when im slamming it in the mountains boosting up 10+ degree inclines and whatnot i start to see temps of 100+ degrees (Celcius) within minutes. coolant usually sits between 85 and 88 degrees as the thermostat...

guys finally made that build thread. better late than never right http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?130263-Beefy-Heafy-s-quot-Turbo-A-quot-Wangan-lover-lt-3&p=1620594#post1620594

i was gonna put one in but they were freaking expensive. There is a anti drain back valve in most reputable oil filters. That will act as a check valve and does well im my system. if it didn't the car wouldn't register oil pressure very well when the accusump primes the bearings. But i might get...

i guess as the things in my thread here panned out i had to go from possibility to possibility via process of elimination. u should mabye do a compression and leakdown test as ur baseline. ummmm i forget there is a way to pinpoint what the issue could be via ur symptoms, puff of smoke when...

hilarious. changing over to braid atm also

good glad i could help. its great to not be burning my expensive as hell oil constantly. although the first drive i went on after fixing this my turbo oil return failed and now i have engine bay fires and massive clouds of toxic smoke :s will fix today. does it ever end :p
