    MK3 BBK Kit!!!

    Yes.. overkill.. but better than original. I dont build my Supra to be a DD.. I just drive it as a DD. Its being built for the track. It just wont see the track. (make sense?) Some of us dummies actually build the car for the car itself. I didn't repaint the car and add a body kit and whale tail...

    Question for the Whaletail crowd...

    Excellent, thank you. We do have different temperature extremes up here, but the car never gets driven in winter anyway. (dont know if the cold we get would affect it or not). I threw that suggestion at my bodyman, will see if he agrees and can do that for me. I would really like it to seem one...

    7mge na-t or 1jz?

    You could also turbo the 7MGE and make it a NA-T.. however.. that has a few worms... There are some step-by-steps for that (and parts list). I believe you can find a lot of posts here that outlines whats involved. Here's one that is fairly good...

    A/C Retrofit

    Whoa... stay R12? Didn't think that was possible... (let me rephrase that.. not recommended and "eventually" not possible) For the retrofit (especially if its at your work) it should be simple enough for the A/C guy to verify what he did. Just make sure it was done right and your good, if...

    Project 88 MKIII - A Calgary build

    Just came from the body guy.. and I have a couple questions (need advice). I bought the smoked signal light cover (fits from the 89+bumper nose to the fender over top of the signal light). Looks extremely nice.. however.. I just noticed something. The 88 signal light actually pops into the...

    Question for the Whaletail crowd...

    Just got back from the body guy. Shimming it is.. just gotta find about 1/4" rubber shims to put under the front part (towards the hatch glass) of the whale tale and then foam tape underneath. On the wing area (top of quarters, not hatch) will be going with 3M tape, but with the shims there...

    Project 88 MKIII - A Calgary build

    lol.. youngest is 14 now.. and I have owned a lot of new cars. Buy 'em for 30,000, sell em for under 10. Where's the brains in that?? I pay 7.00 per month for full insurance on this puppy or 124-150 per month on a new car. Plus.. once I have 30,000 into this car.. it will be worth more than...

    MK3 BBK Kit!!!

    Stupid question time (simply because I am new to BBK's). How hard is it to get replacement rotors for these down the road (and pads) and what is the expected normal DD life on the fronts? Just curious because I expect that with my 2000-3000 km per year.. they may last the life of the vehicle...
