LOL, honestly it was proformance Honda style, All horsepower no torque. You get on it, it lags a bit till the RPM's are high, then well. It makes ALOT of noise but you still don't feel increadible speed. But you look at the speedo and the needle is moving fast tward lose your licence speeds...

LOL, Yeah it won't take me maybe another month and I'll have the Rolla paid off. My AE86 was going to be my project car, but someone stole it while I was at work. So after I pay of the 04 S I'll have a reliable transportation car, and I can put my money into getting another supra. LOL the best...

Well in all honesty I belive there is a aire of "where better than you" when most imports look at honda's. Even I looked down on them when I had my Supra. But after meeting alot of guys and getting to drive a acctual serious car. It seems there just like us. A car that most people don't really...

I borrowed a friend of mines 4 door GSR to get to work and back for the week. I like it just cause my friend kept it clean and acctually built it right. It "looks" stock the only real clue is the Skunk2 exuast. Anyway I was on my way home from work and saw this young punk that goes to the local...

Just off the top of my head, Turbo cars without intercoolers. Datsun/Nissan 260Z Turbo Datsun/Nissan 280ZX Turbo 1989 Mitsubishi Mirage Turbo I own the 280ZX turbo and I honestly think Aliens enginerred that thing. The engine is so complicated it's not even funny. I like it though it's rare.

The back firing is almost certainly cause by the hollowed out cat. Mine did the same thing after I hollowed mine out. Are you having any power loss or stuttering?

LOL, guys that's why I posted it. I know next to nothing about Air suspension systems. I figured if it was that easy everyone would be doing. That's why I posted it, I knew some of you would know why or why not it would work. LOL This is all I do all day at work is think about new power adders...

This system is simplier than that. It would be plummed after the turbo possibly in the 3000 pipe. That and I want it to be a air system. Basically it would work like using nitrous to spool your turbo. Except instead of spraying into the engine, this would use oxygen forced into the engine to...

Well guys I was wonering about something today at work. I was thinking, could you not adapt the compressor and airtank from a air suspension system and modify it to boost the car for a couple seconds till the turbo spools? Basically mounting the air tank in the trunk with the compressor...

What's going on Eric. I am glad to see how far you have gone. I remeber when you first got into supra's LOL mine was the first you ever got to drive. You know now that you got that 1JZ swap your going to have to come down and take me for a ride. Jerry got his Mirage done. 92 hatchback with a...

Yeah the MKIII forums was like a family of Obsessed Supra lovers. The Newbies where a little annoying but what really killed it was when it went from a atmosphere of friends to a "I am better than you" Dictatorship. That's when all us OG's moved on over to Supramania

well if your turbo is bad that could cause it to over boost enough to cause detenation

Feels good to be back. I remeber the MKIII crew was like a family back then. As for me when the supra blew I kinda drifted away and looked at some other cars. Since the Supra I've owned and lost a, 2003 Civic Si 1996 Ford Thunderbird (4.6 GT Mustang Swap) 2004 Corolla S 1985 Corolla GTS...

It depends on how much boost you where running. It's very possible. As for the smoking and blowing oil, you can't rule out valve seals with a compresion test alone. Or the rings for that matter. Take your intake off and try to "wiggle" the turbine on the turbo, if it moves you should ether get...

Hey guys, after 2 years I'm glad to be back. I used to frequent the forums back when the whole MKIII scene was gaining momentum. That is till a small case of rod knock quickly turned into a thrown rod, thanks to a friend that was my DD at a party. But I just wanted to come in and reintruduce...
