LOL, I spent ~ 30 minutes typing and retyping my reply only to find my point had already been covered long ago. Thanks guys

We are actually thinking the same things here. I've been trying to source a used head so we can test the Supraforums rumor of some random domestic valve spring (read: cheap & readily available) fitting perfectly. Getting springs and retainers will probably be pretty easy. The hard part is...

I should probably clarify on the lag comment. Going from stock to mild cams will likely help spool. Going from stock to moderate cams probably will not affect spool as long as the cams are degree'd properly. Move to lumpy cams and you'll spool slightly worse (typically 50-200rpm on a 2JZ with...

He pulled his products. Suprasport will probably make lines for your 60-1 (I'm assuming turbonetics) and RabidChimp makes them for the CT26. I should be able to get you either

Cams generally give a 10% increase in power. Some aggressive cams more, some mild cams less. But it is true that powerband will move around depending on the duration and lobe separation (some of this can be tuned with cam gears). For the most part, a mild cam will give you a bit more power...

I have one of project supras. It's a nice piece -- but it did require minor notching to clear my strut tower bar. Before installing it I could see the master cylinder flex noticably when I had a friend hammer on the pedals. With the brace installed, I could barely see the cylinder move -- but...

We are indeed developing a package that will allow you to plug a Supra 1JZ wiring harness into a 2JZ EMS. If it is successful, we may develop a soarer or chaser harness adapter too.

First, you'd have to have a NA open diff to be able to weld it. Second, it gets very annoying at parkinglot speeds -- bucking and lurching every time you pull into a parking lot -- drawing stares. Then 1 month later you'll be out having some good clean fun and the f^*#$r will break leaving you...

The hard part is getting the blanks. In order to reach the 100 order minimum, we'll have to create both cams from a common blank. To get an idea of what I mean by a blank check out this picture: Those aren't for a 7m, but you get the idea... The top 2 cams have been cut into their...

That's entirely up to you. The hardest part is getting 100 blank cams made. Grinding/polishing the cams to individual spec is very easy. To get some idea of what other cams have been, check out: http://www4.tpgi.com.au/users/loats/technical/7mge/camshafts.html HPF will probably make it...

I should wait until I get definite pricing, but I'm so excited I have to share. I've got a supplier of aftermarket cams interested in making ones for the 7m. They would need an order of 100 cams in order to justify making the blanks (which I'm presuming will be cast). Any spec lobe...

You probably will have accelerated wear on the rod and main bearings, and possibly some scouring on the camshaft journals. Hopefully it will be fine for years to come, but honestly if the engine was making noise (which are hard to relay across the internet) I wouldn't expect the engine to last...

From a materials engineering standpoint, the downside is that the material becomes more brittle so rather than bend (or yeild) at its structural limit, it will be more prone to cracking. In an engine, either bending or cracking would be catastrophic and since the harder material has a higher...

I don't know of any offhand, but check out dgtrials.com They're pretty active on the east coast and while they may not hold a NC event they probably have some posted on their forums from other organizations...

^ Agreed!

I'm very glad to be back, thanks for all your hard work guys!
