Just have a look in my project thread. There you can see before shots and after. But I'm not done with the rear wheel arches. I still have a little on one door and a little on the front fenders. I did a lot of rust repairing in the rear of my supra.

I'm well aware of that. This questions is about SI engine fundamentals and not how to improve combustion chambers. Since the question was brought up in this thread by people saying that removing the humps will get better swirls. So the question is relative since you need to know how the basic...

Instead of calling me an odd-ball try and correct me. After a quick google I found this simple picture showing the general idea of what you want in an SI engine: http://www.honda2wheelersindia.com/images/unicorn_images/flying_machine/features/tumble_flow_combustion_chamber_pic.jpg It...

I see a lot of comments about improving swirl...but swirl is not really wanted in this engine. When it comes to spark ignited engines you want tumble due to a flamefront growing from the sparkplug and out to towards the cylinder walls. More swirl in an SI engine will give richer residual gases...

-:|Update - 2011-01-23|:- Today I continued with the IC install. Since I'm not going to use the stock power steering cooler I can route the pipes in a more nicer way. Pictures: New IC mounted with homemade bracket Routing the pipes a little different This is what...

-:|Update - 2011-01-22|:- Time to install my new IC :) It's not as easy as I thought, but it's getting there. Pictures: Fitting the new IC :)

-:|Update - 2011-01-21|:- Today I started with removing the front to get a look of how the IC is mounted. I also removed the diff and the rear half of the exhaust. As you can see, I have a big leak from the diff so I need to change some seals. I cleaned the diff, both on the inside and the...

-:|Update - 2011-01-17|:- As you can see in my pictures, my carpets are very dirty. So I tried to cleaning them a little. But I need to get some stronger cleaning stuff. I also started on getting the door trim smooth. Pictures: Driver seat removed to be able to clean the carpet...

That is a nice car :P

is it a Toyota FT-86? :) EDIT: no scratch that :-/

Is this the same adapter that you bought? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Turbo-Water-Line-Kit-TOYOTA-CT9-CT12-CT20-CT26-SUPRA-/130337310318?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1e58b5866e What was wrong with the adapter?

-:|Update - 2011-01-15|:- I think I need to use a little more hardner next time. Most of it is dry but some parts of it needs to dry just a little more. I sanded down the top side which is now ready for putty. Pictures: The fiberglass is almost completly dry Top side...

Thank you :)

So you wouldnt recommend that softline kit for the ct26 turbo?

-:|Update - 2011-01-13|:- I got some hardner for the polyester today so I fiberglassed the antenna hole in the side piece for the wing. The hardner was like the ones you use for putty. I have only used liquid hardner before so this was a little bit of a test. Pictures: Taking...

I see :) I just got a little bit scared when I saw your surface rust where the rear subframe meets the body. Then I think you undercarriage will be free from rust for a long time :) hehe I knew that I bought a big project when I bought my supra, but the rust project was a little bigger than...

-:|Update - 2011-01-12|:- Today I decided to clean the air filter since I forgot to put it in a bag for protection from dust and so on. I sprayed it down with degreaser first and let it sit for a while. Then I washed it of with water. It went from red to white/gray :S I think I need some...
