Welcome to supramania! Everyone here is really helpfull and friendly unless you ask a really stupid question. Us mkiii guys tend to have to do things ourselves, plus were a lot smarter then them mkiv elitests! Lol,im just kidding. Good luck with the project!

That is hilarious! Cool that you admitted that, i did the same thing that supaman did when i replaced my turbo. Felt like a tard.

Awesome, thanks for all the help! I love how the manual you sent even has pictures, i really appreciate the help.

Yeah i have a lot of learning to do! I want to do it myself so i can gain the greatly needed experience. I changed the turbo but that was just practically a bolt on affair,it was the one from lipp. Really easy! Its not tore apart just yet, i have 3 weeks till i move to my own home so i will wait...

I was just wondering if i should stick with the idea of having a metal head gasket like the HKS stopper or getting something that can be easier to make a good seal without the need of having the head machined practically perfect. I thought about swapping to a 2jz but i figured i could build a...

I looked through the comments on this and seen how many didn't agree with that rear bumper, but props for sticking to it because man does it look sick,every angle of this car is beautifull i wish i had the money to do a similair widebody. Very nice. You definately have an eye for beauty.

Oh and its a turbo 5 speed 7m.

I wasn't trying to top it out but i got it over 130 racing a guy with a v-8 swapped into a small chevy blazer. We started at 60 and i easily had 20 or more car lengths on him by 130 and i started at 3400 rpms.

That engine looks amazing, very clean.

Im glad i checked this thread out, i think i will try this out. I seen the pictures suprahero posted and the car looks awesome, good job.

Im really thinking about trying this swap, keep it up and if i get going on mine i will let you know. Seeing as i lost two 7m's, im looking for a motor that can handle globs of power with a little less hassle although i know just getting the motor to function will be a hassle in its self.

Well my 7M broke after about 200 miles the first time, lol. I had a mazda rx-7 that i rodded waaaaayyyyy harder and it never broke, i would burn a quart of oil a week. My second motor i babied considering, and the headgasket gave after less then 500 miles and it was on 6 to 7 pounds! Don't get...

Yeah, i would just run the 7m. The hardtop is lighter but the targas looks cool. Im really pondering a swap after breaking 2 7m's.

Man, its the dishonest ones who make the rest look bad. I can't afford for them to put the wrong parts in. Me and my wife have a job at walmart and a car payment for an 04 staurn ion, under 25 so insurance is high on it plus i have a house payment. If you have a wife you know what i mean when...

Nice to see your looking into the swap, i wanted to get a 240 for the 2jz swap to drag race it. But my wife said i can only have one money pitt at a time and i just love my mk3 waaaayyyyyy to much to sell it!

Its a cx racing intercooler, hardtop.

Awesome! I have the lipp boss jr as well. Got it off horsepowerfreaks as a replacement for the ct-26 that i had with bad shaft play. I can't wait to see what kind of power you make. My car blew its headgasket so i won't know what kind of power i make for a long while....

Nice car, i hope it all works out.

I've blown my first, and im not sure if i should do it myself or spend more money to get it done by somebody who could care less about me or my car. Im sure they care for my money though! Im not saying all shops are like that but from the sound of it most people whom take their cars in for...

Nice car, seen the videos of you drifting. Awesome! Keep it up and be carefull not to smash her pretty face;)
