    '87 NA for $950, '87 NA for $4000...hmmm

    I bought my current '88NA for $200 (with BHG). Body is 9/10, interior was 8/10... 170,000 miles. I'd say you should be looking to spend around $3000 for a nice NA that doesn't need mechanical work (but may have some minor cosmetic issues -- especially interior)

    WTF? NA Spec Stage 3

    I had that exact experience doing an informal burnout competition. About 150' away from where I started, I shifted from 2nd to 3rd and got nothing... My friends were pretty amused. Pulled the inspection covers off and found what appeared to be a dismembered cat in the bellhousing (clutch disc...

    awww crap lol (Valve shim interchangeability)

    Please avoid using generic attention-grabbing titles (Dealing with the "old school" http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19859 ) As far as the shims go, you'll probably end up needing to buy a couple new ones (often you'll be able to swap positions for at least some of them). The...

    Bad Luck

    You could also buy a rebuild kit and put in the new seals yourself.

    Wiring a kill switch

    I am going to assume that you are not asking about an NHRA-approved kill switch, but rather are asking about a theft prevention kill switch... My old '87t had it's kill switch wired to cut power to the fuel pump. I did this so it wouldn't reset the ECU each time it was flipped. The car would...

    EMS: Stinger vs MegaSquirt vs AEM vs ?

    I could be wrong, but it is my understanding that the V-pro can only be tuned by someone with an HKS "key" (and that these authorized tuners are only in certain major metropolitan areas). I'm pretty sure the guys at MVP motorsports would know more about it though -- so if you were considering...

    EMS: Stinger vs MegaSquirt vs AEM vs ?

    I've been out of the EMS loop for about a year now, so things may have changed. But it was my understanding that few (if any) people were running the AEM EMS with the 2jz-ge VVTi. That said, the VVTi 2jz engine is pretty rare in North America (I believe it was on 1998 NA's only). I can't...

    EMS: Stinger vs MegaSquirt vs AEM vs ?

    They're designed to plug into the factory wiring harness and be tuned... Maybe the NA MKIV application is different, but I doubt it. Just in case, check out the Supraforums NA section..
