I know, I hate the "is this a good deal" threads too, but I'm really torn. I've had two supras now - both 88's, one was always shitty exterior wise and at first engine wise until I rebuilt it. It has a perfect blue interior, but horrible horrible paint and body damage from the theft. My...

I'm having some really strange behavior and I can't figure out what the hell is going on; the symptoms make absolutely no sense. As of friday, the car was running fine although it was running pretty pig rich with the 550's and some basic fuel settings on the SAFC2. Yesterday, I did some dyno...

Well, I've got my 7M, with thread over here: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=831 But my latest addition is a 1JZ swapped 88. It's really not much to look at, but it has the stuff where it counts :D In some ways I chumped out by buying a pre-swapped car, but all the...

I had an almost brand new Yokohama tire blow out on me the other night, and unfortunately it took one of my wheels with it. Now, these weren't super great wheels or anything, but they matched the car very well, were pretty light weight, and I want to replace the damaged wheel which is pretty...

Some of you may have seen my other thread asking for opinions on the car. This is the official "I can't belive I just fucking did that" thread. :naughty: Long story short, I found it on craigslist. The Good: 1JZ-GTE (!) Blitz Access ECU SAFC2 HKS Turbo Timer Walbro Fuel Pump Aeromotive FPR...

Hey guys, I'm going to go check out a 1JZ MK3 tomorrow morning and I was wondering if there's anything specific I should be checking for on the 1J. I was thinking like quallity of harness splicing and that sort of thing. Is there any real way to tell that a swap was done carefully without...

As some of you know, I work at a transit agency and I happened across these photos. Plates have been blanked, but the story tells itself pretty readily. Bus stopped, impatient driver doesn't want to stop, tries to jimmy around the side and bam. Probably while looking over their shoulder...

After my Supra was stolen a few weeks ago I was tempted to just give up and never have nice things. That didn't last long. Now I'm determined to come back better than ever. My old interior was so incredibly crappy that I was embearassed to have people ride with me, I never took any pictures...

Here is some information I said I would post for Drake. I have/had E-Code HID headlights in my supra and they are great. The car has been stolen and until it's recovered I don't know whether I still have them or not. Anyways, rule 1 is ALWAYS BUY QUALITY PARTS. I can't stress that enough...

Just posting this in case someone from the area is looking out. My car was stolen from my driveway in West Eugene (Oakpatch Road) at 10:00PM Tuesday May 24th. I heard the car start and drive away while sitting at my computer. I got outside just in time to see it turn left and head towards...

This weekend I built/installed a test pipe.... Awesome mod by the way. Anyhow, when I pull up to a stop a plume of bluish smoke starts pouring out of the tailpipe. When I'm cruising or boosting I have no smoke, and I don't see any on deceleration either but it's probably due to wind. The...

Finally went out and took the time to wash, wax, and photograph the Supra. First time since it went down with rod knock. I've got two albums up, one for general pictures, and one for the Defcon pipes, but I'll start at the beginning. I bought the car in June of 2004 from a private party in...

I went up to torque freaks to establish a baseline for the car with current mods. Here's what I got: Year, Make, Model:1988 Toyota Supra Gear:I think they were 4th gear pulls. Transmission:5 Speed All mods: Cone Filter, Boost @ 10psi, defcon hardpipes, HKS Downpipe (2.5-3"), 3" catback...
