    Banned from Supra forums

    Congratulations? :biglaugh: Supraforums can be quite strange at times, but there's some good info out there amongst all the bullshit. Plus, as 92turbo4life mentioned, there is a big ongoing Michigan members thread that I frequent. The new linked ads from common words in a post are really...

    Supra question

    I'll agree that the 4G63 is a great motor. However, I'm not sure about the stock turbo and IC being any better than a MKIII Supra's, particularly with the 95-99 DSMs (stock sidemount, Garrett T-25 turbo). The T-25, known as the "T-too small," was good for 12psi and would usually drop off at...

    Supra question

    Wow, what a dumb post. DSMs aren't only FWD; they also came in AWD. The 4-cyl is not a "terrible setup" since the 4G63 motor has a lot of potential and a lot of parts out there. They can make 400+whp on the stock bottom end, and much higher with a proper build-up. And crankwalk does not...

    Oil Catch Can Needed?

    A catch can doesn't act as a filter; it is simply a collector for oil that gets vented from the valve covers (due to a build up of pressure). The main purpose of the catch can is to prevent oil from going back into the intake where it can collect and coat the intake pipe, IC pipes, intercooler...

    Carbon Fiber Wing on the Sup!!!!, APex Neo question.

    Yeah, that wing is fugly. Of course, I say that about most wings and body kits. SAFC install is pretty easy. I just installed a S-AFC (1st Gen) yesterday and it took a little over an hour. Most of that time was me going back inside to my computer, to make sure I was tapping the correct...

    Best Wheels

    This is a totally subjective topic so KeithH's statement is right on the mark.

    BIC Downpipe Question

    Well, that would be fine since it would only be loud when you are trying to accelerate quickly, not just when you're sitting there idling. From what 89turbosupra and MassSupra89 were describing, it sounds like the exhaust gases leak past the little separator even at idle conditions. I can see...

    BIC Downpipe Question

    So that small section that separates the wastegate and turbine exhaust gases isn't quite the right size? Is that a common occurrence with the DDP? (I was planning on ordering one within the next couple of days) :)

    BIC Downpipe Question

    It's loud at idle? It should only be loud when the wastegate is open (when you're at full boost).

    So do you jam music while tearing your MKIII apart?

    I must be the odd one since I rarely, if ever, listen to music while working on the car. Of course I started off working on cars in a college parking lot, and that mentality never really wore off, even when I had garages available.

    Just for kicks

    I'm assuming all cars in stock form. I'm also assuming it's a turbo 5-speed MKIII. Will the MKIII win? 1. Camaro: V6-yes, V8-no, SS-no 2. Mustang: V6-yes, V8-maybe, Cobra-no 3. Eclipse: 3rd or 4th Gen-yes, 1G or 2G Turbo-maybe 4. SRT4: no 5. 3000GT: N/A-yes, VR4-no 6. RX-7: FD...
