you should post the picture of the twisted rod, it looks nassssty. I'm assuming that the eagle rods are in the middle?

If you run 550's you should get the Lex AFM, that way it will even out, but i think you also need a fuel pump and FPR to go with it... But you should see most of the gains from the shortened IC piping.

I got a quote from a shop in manteca, the one who does not have a torque plate. hot tank - 65 align bore mains - 125 rebore and hone - 80 surface block - 80 grind crank - 90 balance assembly - 250 valve job - 450 (pwned) surface head - 60 surface flywheel - 30 Freeze Plugs - 5 Its...

have you checked for shaft play yet???

Why? Theres not enough room in the engine bay to do it... and you get better air flow up front... planning on a crazy drift car or something???

You mean for the IC? Like rx-7's im guessing right?

What was the compression of the engine? And you should ask for all of the old parts back, so that way you KNOW they changed them, and at least in CA, they have to give them to you if you ask for them. And i still think thats a load of BS for the struts... im suprised they didnt tell you some...

I called a local one in Manteca... I live in Tracy, but i want it done the RIGHT way, so if i have to travel to Sacramento, San Jose, or Modesto or somewhere i will.

Anybody know of one??? The one machine shop i just called said the toyota has pretty rigid cylinders and is equally spaced head bolts, so i should be ok... haha. So if you own/run/know a machine shop with a torque plate, LET ME KNOW! (the only reason i didnt post in the southwest is cause...

You need anybody to test them out for you ARZ?:biglaugh:

did you find it on craigslist list? if so post up the link. either way, as long as it starts, and doesnt sound really bad, i'd buy it. but will probably need some work done.... the good running supras are NEVER for sale....

Fuck it, suprarich is getting my 450 for the eagles! hahaha

I think you should first figure out whats wrong with the supra, im sure the TSRM will guide you to trouble shoot the car, do you have pics of the damage? I have a TONNNN of supra stuff laying around, pay for postage, and its yours. Shipping should be cheap with those 6.95 flat rate boxes...

It would only cost me $50 more for the eagle rods... i love SM Vendors!

I'm debating between the Eagle rods, and the rabid chimp rods. Should i just spend the extra 75 for the eagle rods? Or will the "race prepped" rods hold up to about 400-500ft tq? Let me know your ideas and/or thoughts.
