Rob, Steve, and Drew, plus the other 2 Supra guys, thanks for stopping by the shop today. Nice to see 3 MKIIIs up and running in late October.I would have liked to made the trip to Clearwater but just have to get this shop complete before the read cold weather sets in. We can have the first...

Jeremy, I think we will wait until early spring, then have a meet. If we could ever get the boys together and work hard on her it would only take a few days to complete her. However, every one has jobs and so we are limping along slowly. Besides I am running out of money. Getting the bathroom...

Latest on the 2JZ. Tonight we installed the new ATI crank pulley and put her back together. She runs good. We sure bent a lot of stuff when the OEM one blew apart. I found a missing exhaust manifold bolt tonight as well. Will get to her when we send the turbo back to Comp for the billet wheel...

Rob, mine kept doing the same . I now just use the rear kill switch we installed for drag racing. When I get out of the car or put her into the garage, I just flip the switch and kill all power. BTW, we are putting on my new crank pulley and re-assembling her tomorrow. Hope to drive her this...

We are barbarians here. Just ask my wife!

Sean rarely visits the forums any more. His black 87 has had engine, tranny, AEM all sold to Shariff a local MN guy. We are just now finishing up the shop where the V8 swap and much more will happen this winter. If you look for my build thread (leecheater) you will see we are close on the shop...

Today the guys dug the trench for the wire. They dug up the yard pretty good. Latest photos below:

Honestabe, I suppose your right. It could have been at the track or far from home when she blew up. NOw with the ATI I am hopefully done. And, yes, the garage will be fully insulated and heated once we finish up the wiring. I am still looking for a 110,000bty hanging propane furnace, plus she is...

Latest update: Sean and I pulled out the radiator, fan clutch, lower timing belt assembly. The serpentine tensioner is bent as well as the timing belt tensioner, timing belt is shot, and a few other bent bolts. Here is a photo of the lower timing belt cover. When the crank pulley blew, she...

Rob, I probably got 500 on her. She still needs a decent tune. Was running pretty good. With a bit of luck, she should be running again this weekend. Electrical stuff is 3/4 done. Inspector comes out on Friday.

Supra update: I have been driving her as my daily driver. Yesterday the crank pulley blew up. It damaged my fan and bent the timing tensioner. I still have not pulled her apart yet to access any other damage. I did order an ATI crank pulley today though. Garage: Latest is we are nearly done...

Emilio, your welcome to come out anytime. With luck we will have her ready before freeze up. It is a lot bigger than the old garage, a lot nicer and a lot better planned out. Lastly it is a lot more expensive.

Mike, yes, he looked pretty confused until I told him to pretend it was his old girl friend. Now he does good but keeps falling asleep after he puts in each screw. I am driving my car, in fact just came back from town. The kid with the GTR was on the other side of Division Street. I quick...

I haven't posted for a bit. Been crazy busy at work. I finally got Sean to look carefully at the 2JZ. He found the front crank bolt loose. Tightened her up and the worrisome noise is history. I have a new crank bolt at the dealer ship that will be installed. We took her for a ride. She runs good...

Yes, I am looking for good quality wiper blades. Mine are toast. The 2jz is ready to roll tonight again. Just finishing up tweaking her. Have we met in person? Perhapos at one of the SS meets?

Phil, Please accept my $50, just sent via paypal. You went out of your way on several occasions to help me out with needed parts. Always damn good service and quick shipping. If I lived closer I would help clean up this mess. I hate fucking thieves. If you ever have the good fortune finding...

I have one of their bottles on my desk.

Mike, we pulled valve cover. No obvious source yet. Sean thinks the noise is transmitted from down low. We also think we see some real fine metal in the oil. With all the garage work going on, not enough time to dig into it. Hopefully next week we can check clearances. If it is the bearings, I...

http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?126243-The-High-power-7MGTE-part-out-74MM-turbo-AEM-EMS-FFIM-etc.&highlight=funky_monkey58 I would buy this bad ass engine. Just buy it soon before he sells all the accessories.

Mike, latest on 2jz is that I have this engine noise that I am concerned about. Since we just changed rod and crank bearings, some realistic fear something may be amiss. Good news is that Steve (toyantos) and my frined Iner (worlds greatest old school mechanic) think the sound is cam chatter and...
