    Crash Safety Ratings on the MKIII

    Anyone besides me notice there is no such thing as an 82-90 Supra, so if you ask me that alone makes that chart meaningless drivel. The weight of a Supra speaks for itself, the weight of the doors, the channel down the side of the car, do you realize the strength this channel alone adds to the...

    why the cressida over the supra for drifting?

    Poodles wow are you sure I thought it was a little worse than that, not bad but just a smidge worse. My chart is at home so I cant check, what are the front and rear weights? I remember the rear end was a little heavier.

    why the cressida over the supra for drifting?

    I'm not sure but they may have closer to a 50/50 weight ratio. the closer you get to that the more fun your gonna have drifting or handling.

    Pistol Shrimp

    What's really wild about that shrimp is scientists have been looking at ways to use what it's doing to try and create energy. They are looking at what they call SonoLuminesence. It can produce the conditions necessary to initiate or facilitate nuclear fusion. Pretty interesting weapon that...

    good news from energy suspension

    I'm lost they are interested in making the bushings or they need more demand? If you want to help get these bushings made write Summit Racing which is a huge distributor of Energy and ask, Hey Summit when the heck are you going to sell bushings for my Supra MKIII, enough of those and Summit will...

    good news from energy suspension

    YESSSSSSS I started my Email campaign with them almost 6 years ago. I've been bugging them regularly ever since. This is great news. I've even but emailing Summit to ask them to do it, also that summit sales reps come into our forums and see just how large the supra community really is.

    Electric Supercharger

    That turbodyne site was interesting it looked like it was for 2000cc's and smaller though. I found this site, maybe as time and demand goes forward something will eventually work, but everything looks like its for smaller engines than our 3.0 litres...

    Electric Supercharger

    I think if there was a way to electrically fan force air into an automobile engine it would be common today.

    MKIII vs a bunch of different cars comparison

    Its been so long since I read that I forgot about the line where it says it had HKS boltons. I'd probably agree with him on the seats I love the stocks seats myself.

    Getting lots of Poly bushings

    Nylon does not compress so there is no vibration deadening, they will rotate with the suspension geometry smoothly. I will also say heim joints dont belong on a street car from experience. I made all the trailing arms and lateral sway bar for the rear of my fiat 124 back in the seventies, they...

    Electric Supercharger

    I did this math, if you convert 3 litres to Cubic Feet it somes out to.1059 cubic feet. If you mutiply that by 6000 for rpms it comes out to 635.66 cfm. I guess that would mean IF you had a 12 vdc fanaxial blower capable of doing that it might make a difference. Honeywell does make some fans...

    how to remove door bars?

    One of the reasons I bought a supra is those anti tbone bars, heavy doors means a little safety.
