....that sounds exhilarating! Any progress on the build?

Twin turbo? It's not too often I see that on these cars especially with a ct-26. Sounds.like an interesting build. Love the colour btw.

You can always compensate for the lack of compression with more boost. But yeah, that thicker headgasket can drop it a bit under the stock ratio.

Haha, I bet they just treat it like out "just pretend it's not there and it doesn't exist". At least that's how my mom handles it. She's the only one that I hear complaints from while we're building our cars out here in the country.

Agreed, bearings are really inexpensive compared to headache generated from not replacing them at all. I know when I did mine, my oil was not milky at all but the coolant was always merky. I wasn't sure if the headgasket was one or not but I didn't want to take chances on a random breakdown so I...

Yeah it's starting to get a bit cold so I will probably switch to the 5w-30? Would the lighter weight be fine in the hotter months?

Sorry, It was a bit vague. I guess I what I was point towards was that synthetic isn't causing any kind of remote harm to basically get to root of his question. To add info on what I run it is 10w-30 Castrol Edge w/ titanium. [PDF] PRODUCT DATA - Castrol...

All I will say is many of the components of these cars were designed to used for a reason. Tapering with them can and will hold some negative consequences so I personally am just either upgrading (aftermarket cc) or leaving it alone. All of this is with the exception of my removing my...

My dash fails now haha. How many hours do you have invested?

I'll I know is that that color was a 2 year rodeo for the supra. 86.5 and 87. I wouldn't say it's too terribly common.

Was it fun?

...............I'm not working hard enough on my car. That is a work of art.

Welcome to sm Eric !

so did you just get the inspiration one day to do the paint yourself? That is a really good job, especially to be the first time

That sir is one fine automobile!

I've since articles in "import turner" do the same type thing. I don't like it when someone's negative bias portrays a false image. It just makes it seems way worse than it really is.

What was your quickest pass to date?

Does the issue occur while it is not in motion as well? I'm not sure what would cause an issue like that to be drive dependent.
