I bought mine from 88rotors about 6-8 months ago... no problems. I will probably be swapping up in the future though for a more aggressive compound.... maybe some brembo blanks and green stuff pads. For a minor stock upgrade, ya cant go wrong... they do the job. you get what you pay for, its a...
Supramania was my first experience using any type of forum so i'd say i changed alot since i started here. I also feel like i learned alot about cars in general, in addition to general supra maintenence and operation.
This forum is definately one of the best things ive ever discovered. The...
the reason you can get junkyard mods for them is because they arent meant to perform initially. There are Performance parts from other cars like the 300zx that will fit on the 240 for example. The supra is a performance vehicle, therefore our parts are already made for performance. they are...

well at first i was like man they look too big, but they really fill out the wheel wells like wider wheels would and it give the car a muscular beefy stance. It's grown on me since i got em and im really impressed with how they handle. Cant wait till my new engine gets here so i can cut em loose...
30 psi... ouch...thats REALLY bad. When do you plan to buy the motor? I'd talk to ron about it, as my motor(the Rabid) is still in the R-C machine shop as we speak. You might want to make sure they have one in stock when you decide to go for it.
