    Who has a Gold respray?

    Yeah, probably a nice black shiny car showing good reflections would be the best to try to achieve a chrome or mirror finish.

    Who has a Gold respray?

    You mean photoshop to black or? It's not hard to photoshop any particular color, but for quick jobs (like the gold and chrome ones) it helps to have a good base picture. If you want a metallic color, it is best to start with a metallic car. Why? Because I'm not going to spend 20 mins in...

    Anonymous HG Poll

    Alright everybody: This poll is anonymous and only helpful if we have a bunch of truthful responses. Hypothetical scenario: You do a HG, it blows. You do another one, it is fine. They were both MHG with head only machined. PLEASE report the blown one as it is more useful data.

    dugums build - need a ton of help!!!

    Alright, thanks for the tips. I am feeling a bit more confident now about what I need to do. On another note, somebody mentioned I was going to have some trouble using the ARP studs with the block in the car. Is this right? How difficult is it to get the motor tilted far enough to clear the...

    Who has a Gold respray?

    Here are a few variations on chrome (which is really cool if you've ever seen a car painted like it in real life). If you want me to attempt a more reflective surface I need a picture of a non-metallic car with A LOT of gloss and reflection.

    Anonymous HG Poll

    I would definitely like to see more results in the poll. Yeah, the point wasn't to argue with the "right" way as-directed by the MHG manufacturers, rather just to see what people were actually doing. Maybe all the people who blew MHG's got out of the Supra game altogether...:cry: :evil2:

    Haha, somehow I knew that's what you were going to say. I do appreciate the input on the stock HG, though. I may have the opportunity to machine the block thanks to you guys being in Cali - my turbo might just be gone long enough for me to make some time :naughty:

    I like the pretty lights.... So, is it pretty easy to wire this up, or do I need professional assistance? As I understand it, this will allow me to monitor AND alter the Air/Fuel ratio, correct? P n P, or?

    dugums build - need a ton of help!!!

    Well, I realize the goal is low, but there is no reason for me to go overboard. This is not going to be a track car, and I will barely ever get to really push it. I am playing around with the idea of rebuilding the bottom end and getting the block machined now. If that becomes a reality, I...

    I'm definitely open to specific suggestions. Sorry to be such a noob about it, but there is just so much information, I can't really figure out what would be suitable for my needs.

    dugums build - need a ton of help!!!

    I don't mind spending extra money to make it run right, even if what I end up buying is overkill. I think I will get the injectors cleaned and flow-tested, as it would be very easy to do right now. I don't like the idea of doing the bare minimum. I am putting a 57 trim on the car, and am...

    BHG

    Well, My first two had BHG repaired before they were purchased. The one I am replacing now, was also blown (although I did not know it until I opened it up). So add 2 to the 7m column, lol..

    Aaron, While I am at it, let me direct a question to you, as from everything I see I am inclined to listen to your advice over many others: If you had ONLY the following two choices which would it be: Keep in mind boost will be kept in check (albeit from your 57 trim upgrade). Shooting...
