You know, I never bitched about work hours UNTIL I joined..... 0630 to 1700 is fine, but I've been shafted with a lot of 1800+ days and my son goes to bed at 2000. I'm rather annoyed at only getting 2 real hours a day with him. Today I got lucky. 0300 to 0730 ruck march, off the rest of the day.

So what kind of power can I expect simply adding a turbo? If my goal requires an engine swap, I might look into some other engine choices. But I like the economy and power balance of the I6.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Metallica and Megadeth get me pumped up. I know of one song that almost made me cry: "I'm all ready there" by Lonestar, the soldier mix. I was in Iraq.

I had one on my 73 that said NO KTTN for my sn on a few boards. I also got one from AZ DMV that read 038 KLR (0.38 Killer) as my random one. I kept it.

This is the essence of the forum format! When you stick by your beliefs (even if they may be mistaken) but are still willing to listen and read other people's opinions, answers, and information. I honestly believe we did go. My mom turned 11 the day Apollo 11 launched. That would have to...

Thanks! I was on the fence, as I wanted to know what I needed to do to the engine before the turbo, and a good turbo suggestion would help a lot.

I'll check my manuals on the shim bolts. I got the 86 owner's manual and the Haynes (pos manual, cuz I haven't gotten to Savannah yet to get one from the dealer).

Looks like some damage to part of either the Targa or the a pillar. I love the seat work. How do I go about getting some of those? Also looks like you need one of Empera's ebrake lever boots.

Manufacturer specific models will allow access to more computer systems on the car. A Toyota one will allow access to the ABS and traction control computers as well as the OBDII emissions and engine management system. Also, some fault codes for the engine management system may be manufacturer...

7M NA for now. May go big single if the wife will let me keep the Supra as a project. Looking for a cheap quad cab pickup and an SUV to replace the Mazda.

I'm seriously considering installing a turbo kit on my untouched 7mge, but I want to know what the best upgrades to achieve 450 rwhp are. I want reliable power, but I'm not sure what will need to be replaced with tougher components besides the head gasket and cams. Any help would be...

Seriously. Had one of those moments earlier today.

In no particular order: The supra The wife Playing playstation Playing playstation with my 15 month old son sitting in my lap and having fun. Working on any car Machining Sex Driving, whether alone or with the family Shooting my weapons 40mm grenades Keeping busy.

Done that with the supra before. Had three passengers, two of which had no idea what the supra could do, even stock. Besides looking like a clown car when they piled out, they were amazed at it. Then I got told by a Mexican that white boys aren't allowed to cram people into the car. Too...

Two translations of RTFM: Read The Field Manual or Read The Ford Manual (What were you thinking?)

So, we found out on the fourth that my wife is pregnant with our second child. Yeah. Don't buy the Equate brand pregnancy tests. They fail a GO/NO-GO exercise. Out of the six she bought (two 3-packs over the last two months), two claimed NO-GO and four FAILED!, as in no control line even...

This is what I have to say to that: And these are my friends to back me up:

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? Over.

I must confess. I am a forum junkie. I've been part of the following Stangnet.com (classic OT section) MercuryCougar.net (Had a 73) TheCurb (basically MASSIVE OT forum of MCN people) FullSizeBronco.com (80 Bronco) TwistedWheelers (also Bronco) SupraForums Here, for a long time. and...
