    Anybody have this muffler? (just bought one)

    good, that's what i'm lookin for... my worst fear is for it to sound like one of those honda's rippin around with coffee cans stickin out the back.. but then I remember my smooth 3L inline 6 and all my fears go away haha

    Anybody have this muffler? (just bought one)

    Ya my car has a resonator installed halfway through the exhaust, I might end up taking that out aswell... or I might not, depending on how loud it is... I'm just lookin for a nice deep tone at the low end... I will record how it sounds and put up a vid for you guys when I get it installed!

    I paid $3300 for my grey on grey 88 supra non turbo w/ LSD with 180,000km on it... body is almost perfect (ding on the door, paint fading on the hood)... interior was dirty but in great shape... I thought it was a good deal... ended up having to put around $5k into the car fixing stuff.... ya...

    need to make power

    you could try and find a turbo front clip... that would be pretty much everything you need.. or a turbo parts car... you could always use the extra interior pieces and replacement parts if something breaks!

    All better!

    Well, after taking my car to the shop that did the head gasket (after it started making that aweful knocking sound that would come and go, that developed AFTER the HG job)... It turns out the crank pully was a little loose, and the anti-vibration thing was pooched, so it was wobbling, it shook...

    Sport/LSD

    Ya, are you sure you don't have one? Just because you dont have the sport package doesnt mean you dont have an lsd. I have the headlight washers and an lsd, but no tems or targa top, so no sport package. I love my LSD :biglaugh:

    Going NA-T or sell

    Thanks for the link from before, it was very helpful, I have read it through several times and am ready to go out and track down the sound. I was just curious since your reply said that if the noise stops it isnt rod knock, which isn't what it said in the link you posted... just trying to get it...
