Do I need to do all those replacements at the same time? Sorry if that seems like a stupid question. The struts I can easily afford and possibly the springs at the same time. Reason I ask is cause I just don't want to have to wait another 2 months before it handles well.
Short term I just want it to handle well for daily driving, mainly just for my personal safety haha. I'll admit I enjoy taking corners fast but I can hold off on the drifter's suspension till later when I have the money lol. As far as the look of the car I do eventually want to lower it a...
Just to give an idea of budget I could get $600 pretty quickly and even if it'll have to be added on to later I really need to at least have the car handle well instead of like complete shit. I'll look up those options you offered. I don't know if my tems works or not because my shocks are...
So I was told by a friend to save up about 1.5k and go for an entire suspension system replacement. But I asked another friend, who's pretty huge into cars and she said that since my springs aren't cut that I'd be fine with just replacing the struts/shocks. I found these online and at around...
Well I did reposition my filter a bit just a minute ago, just so the face of it is at least pointed toward a whole at the wheel well. The assumption was that it would at least suck in a little more fresh/cool air and really it seemed to run a bit smoother on the ride. Turbo kicked in very...
Hmm 2.5 and the filter fits perfectly. Mine doesn't even had the crank fan or shroud it has an electric fan mounted on the radiator. My radiator isn't stock and I'm wondering if maybe its a combination of it being a bit too long and the piping being a bit too wide. Basically as you can see from...
Redo the intercooler piping? I figured that's what I'd have to do because a filter even as small as the one I have will not fit right there beside the piping when its directly on the AFM. I see you have some aluminum piping. What size? As you saw mine is 3" and I'd appreciate a pic of your...
Lol thanks man its all I could come up with to have a quick fix. If I reduced the piping back to the stock size but kept the larger IC how much would that affect my horsepower? I ask this simply so that I could properly route an airfilter. Anyone know anyone that has dealt with this issue and...
Just wanted to say I love the body kit you put on your supra. Its not too much like so many kits on the Japanese imports. Where did you get it and does it fit on the 88 model cause I know the front end is a different style.

Alright thanks, I assumed I was running around 260ish so that sounds right. Also judging by the pics you can see my current issue with the filter is rather annoying and bad for intake temperature. I assumed the IC would make up some of the difference but how did others manage to route their own...
Well actually my goal is 350 with the highest being 400. I know its capable of way more but I'd rather not HAVE to invest in forged internals just to keep stuff from breaking. So what further would I need on my current mods to get 350-400hp? I know I still need the 550cc injectors. I was told...
I'll get some pics as soon as I can, which will probably be tomorrow since its night time already. One question. If the answer is indeed getting smaller aluminum pipes for the IC how would I go about that since 3" is what fits it. I guess it could be seen as a stupid question but do they make...
One problem I'm having due to the massive IC piping is placement of my air-filter. Right now I have it rigged up with an adapter for my AFM, some flex piping and then the air filter on the end of the piping. Its sorta laid to the side and the car runs strong, but I've been told that despite my...
My bad I realized how useless of info that was after the fact. I believe its the stock turbo and if I remember correctly the previous owner said he was running 10 psi. I can't be certain because I have to get a new boost gauge since the stock one is not working.
I've only owned it for 5 months or so and I'm no expert on cars but I've fallen in love. The car came with a few upgrades already on it and the engine supposedly on has 50k or less miles on it according to the previous owner. I will say the engine runs strong and I've never had a problem out of...
I have the stock wheels for the time being. Yeah that sticker has been torn off at sometime in the past two decades it seems lol. I'll probably just stick with what I've got on the car. The oddest thing was that the wider tires, which are meant for the rear, were not as tall of tires as the...
