    Anyone running a GT35R on a 7mgte

    Trying to push that sort of power on the 35R is obviously crazy :icon_razz But it depends exactly what your goals are and where your power will be needed. More important to me is boost responce; actually more important that actual power is how much whiplash I get from a dig. After that its...

    536rwhp on how much boost? 25psi? Have you tried dynoing 18psi to see how much was yielded?
  3. Orion ZyGarian

    Kinda a vague question.. how much boost?

    From what people have told me, 18psi is usuable with a good tune on 93 octane, a relatively efficient turbo, decent FMIC, etc. With a minute compression drop and some injection like yours I'm *guessing* you can safely manage 20-23 or so Actually, the oiling problems with the turbo is too MUCH...

    WANTED: Pics of your car! (For MKIII Colour FAQ)

    Damn...I couldve sworn my color was "maroon", but further research shows it was 86.5 only color (btw on your badass site, it says 7M came turbo in 86.5. Not so :D) even though my color doesnt look like the shown correct one. I have 3H1 maroon

    retorqing head studs?

    How often should they be retorqued?

    Things I don't like about Supras

    Bad designs on the MkIII: Intake manifold Air flow sensor Intercooler piping Intercooler.... Exhaust piping...everything from turbo back blows ass. Improper head torque rating Boost gauge....why bother... Coil pack assembly. Coil over plug is better, though they are forgiven since this...

    BHG. But why?

    Well what should be done about the rivot problem? Also, when should you retorque your head? How many people running big power use cometics? I'm trying to justify buying a headgasket that has a higher "booboo rating" compared to shelling out the ass for a stopper type (which by all means I...

    gas sucks, how much are you paying?

    $2.90 for 89. The DD MX-5 hot pocket runs happier on 89 and gets 30-35 mpg...even as I beat the crap out of it. Quit your bitching and get a car that gets good mileage because theres hardly anything you can do otherwise. Europe and Australia at the least have far higher prices.

    BHG. But why?

    What exactly is the deal with the rivot then? Is it an unwanted extra part of the HG? Whats the deal? Also, I am looking for the utmost maximum life out of my application. So far it seems the "stopper" type HG is the best. Does Cometic make a "stopper" type, or am I 'stuck' with HKS/GReddy...

    has anyone seen this before?

    Those arent "gullwings"...those are scissor doors. Gullwings open horizontally upwards, a la the Bricklin, DeLorean DMC-12, Mercedes 300SL Gullwing, and Autozam AZ-1. Scissor doors are seen on Lambos, show cars, etc. 3 years ago I insisted on a gullwing door conversion for my MkIII and making...

    BHG. But why?

    The lack of enough torque is the first thing I noticed wrong about what was said. As stated a bunch of times, I think it was undertorqued. Also, I'm assuming you torqued the head in the proper sequence as stated in the factory manuals and not all at once; personally to be extra careful, I'll...

    Anyone running a GT35R on a 7mgte

    Looking back at my old posts are always entertaining...the difference between now and then is a little something called "Maximum Boost by Corky Bell". Now I know all the math, did the calculations, and for conservative power and incredible spool, the GT35R is the best turbo bar none. At 18...

    Headlight Question

    I made a photoshop a while back as ideas for fixed headlights. I have nothing against my popups and love 'em--I've had 4 cars, and all of them with popups. Just curious about our cars with different headlights.

    GT3076R and GT3582R compressor maps

    Can you show me in MSPaint what you are talking about? Which map, which island, and am I bringing down 2.0 pressure horrizontally or vertically? etc. Also, before I forget again, I've been really meaning to ask you some questions about your LPG conversion! We'll PM later

    GT3076R and GT3582R compressor maps

    Thats at about 18 psi or so. They really arent too different, thought the GT35R has a higher rating of efficientcy for top end

    Mine was painted...although from some random chips and whatnot tell me its been repainted once

    mk3 intercoolers

    I suggest checking out "Maximum Boost" by Corky Bell...actually an incredibly decent amount of intercooler info in there

    Supra Solid Motor Mounts Billet Aluminum

    Has anyone tried getting some polyurethane and injecting it as solid mount replacements? Not sure how our applications are, but my friend with a 2G Eclipse got a polyurethane tube and injected some in his crappy old mounts and hasnt got wheelhop or anything since
