    White Package 92 Turbo with 53k Miles Popped up in CO.

    I'd disagree with that first statement. Doing a full restoration on a mk3 would be more expensive than asking price on these high dollar mk3s. A good restoration would involve a lot of work people commonly skip when doing a build. The full restorations of classic cars you see roll across Barrett...

    Tanabe Catback Fitment Issue

    Yeah, I'm not sure what the hell they're talking about. There are absolutely more and less restrictive cats. Now, I think what they MAY be trying to get at is that the high-flow cats simply have less substrate. In that train of logic, the high flow cats aren't any more efficient than the...

    White Package 92 Turbo with 53k Miles Popped up in CO.

    Because nobody wanted to actually spend time in those interiors driving them! That's a great ethics question, haha. I'd probably offer up some little extra, but I wouldn't be exclaiming that I'd pay 5x that for it! Agreed Ken. Cars like this (and yours) are very few and far between...

    I check craigs most days in case anything interesting pops up. Well, today might be the most interesting I've seen in Colorado. https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/rare-1992-toyota-supra-turbo/6472651333.html 92 White Package Turbo, Auto, Hardtop (with sunroof), 53k miles...

    Tanabe Catback Fitment Issue

    That was with a 50 trim CT26 and no fuel mods. I expect the power level was around 300-325 whp, but never dyno'd it. After the install without changing settings on the Greddy Profec B Spec I went from a peak boost of 12-13 down to about 9-10 if memory serves. The turbo was working a lot harder...

    Tanabe Catback Fitment Issue

    If you go into the metallic spiral option, you'll see diameter choices on the product page. I've used the spiral metallic core on two cars so far. I'd go that route if emissions isn't your top concern. If you want as little emission, hassle as possible and don't mind some power loss, go...

    Tanabe Catback Fitment Issue

    Old Radar: I just installed the exact same exhaust and had the exact same problem. I thought it was from my BIC downpipe being a little off, but now I think it's just the Tanabe exhaust. It must have been patterned just a little off or perhaps off an NA. I purchased a non-turbo 3" high flow cat...

    1990 Turbo Supra with 3k miles for sale?

    I have to listen for about 5 minutes before I can follow what the hell they're saying. Without the little price caption at the bottom I'd have a hell of time knowing what the current bid really is. I don't get the appeal. The Gooding auctions and others seem just as thrilling and it's just...

    The Fruition of Obsession -- 310,000 mile makeover --

    Yeah, thanks! It did turn out pretty well. I wish I had done it sooner. :( I had that thing for 9 years with lackluster paint. All I needed was a $100 polisher, some pads and a few hours to make it really shine. I got it all pretty about a month before selling it. The bumpers and hatch were...

    7MGTE Oil pressure system.

    I'm with you. I also don't see why the factory system would be restrictive. Does the OEM filter bracket restrict flow at typical flow rates for a 7M? I didn't think it did.

    7MGTE Oil pressure system.

    I helped CRE install a full flow system years back. I didn't write down the pressure loss, but it was minimal according to the admittedly terrible factory gauge. We/he noted it before the full flow circuit and then after. Same motor, no other changes other than the new cooler circuit and the...

    3D Printed Supra Parts

    I'd like to, but honestly it's fallen down my priority list. If there was real demand for it, I'd make it a priority. I think I could put together a kit for ~$100-150 that would offer a factory-grade placement option. I've recently been working with plastics with a far better appearance than my...

    That idea is so good I may have to steal it. ;)

    3D Printed Supra Parts

    Are you referring to the tabs of plastic within the mirror assembly? Which, when broken, cause the mirror to shake around?

    7MGTE Oil pressure system.

    Pirate, awesome idea with the secondary pump. Is that pump small enough to fit into an unmodified pan? Or is it externally mounted with a suction line in the sump?

    The Fruition of Obsession -- 310,000 mile makeover --

    I sold this car last year (2016). In preparation I polished the hell out of it. It's something I should have done years prior because it turned the lackluster, faded paint into a really nice-looking sheen with only a few hours of work with the right tools. Here's a video showing a bunch of...

    Help! Supra doesn't run right

    I would test every single line on this page and the page after it. If any one thing is out of spec, chase down the cause. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=50
