** the car he's putting the turbo motor in is an N/A 5 speed. he'll be keeping the w58 tranny, which means that his ratios wont be screwed up!** -shaeff

dont spray anything on your sensor unless you want to toast it... -shaeff

i'm not sure, as i deleted the cruise control because i've always hated it. i'm not sure about automatics because i've got a 5 speed, and i've never seen another mkiii where i live. ever. :( anything is possible with a little custom fabricatoin and innovation! -shaeff

there's plenty wrong with the 7m oiling system. search around, and you'll see. -shaeff

i sure as hell dont know what all that compute mumbo jumbo means, but that is DAMN cool! on the old SM Shawndude had a setup with a PC in his car. it was wicked cool. too bad the pics are lost now, and Shawndude is seldom here :( . regardless, thats really badass, and way more involved than my...

maybe it was the old SM. but i know i've seen it here before... -shaeff

are you keeping the 5 speed or are you converting to auto? if i were you, i'd keep the 5 speed. for use with the automatic tranny- you'll need the gear selector, remove the clutch pedal, install all pieces essential to the auto tranny working. not worth it in my opinion. i like manuals...

i saw this on SM a while back. still funny as hell though:) -shaeff

this is my opinion of course, but your car is far too nice not to have a carpet. :( -shaeff

check your codes first:http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/techtip/engineerrorcodes.html codes can tell us alot of what's going on. sounds to me like you have a boost leak. the most common culprit is the pipe off the bottom of the turbo. it tends to crack and split due to the heat from the turbo...

basically, he means that if the relief cannot open, then something will blow, which will most likely mean the o-ring in the oil filter, or worse, the filter itself. -shaeff

the stock one on a turbo car is too short. my car is a turbo swapped 86.5, so i had the N/A throttle cable already. it fits *perfectly*. edit: by the way, your setup looks nice, very clean. -shaeff

if you have a donor car that runs well, it's easy as pie. here ya go! http://www.speedtoys.com/~stryder/ basically, you'll want to pull the engine harness through the firewall, then lay it on top of the motor. disconnect everything, pull the motor/tranny as a whole, (on both cars) drop the...

this is the same principle as using the JDM 7m throttlebodys. (what i did :)) it feels very nice. no sloppy linkage or anything. when i hit the gas pedal, my motor instantly responds. see thread below: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1111&highlight=throttle -shaeff

use gorilla glue. (read the directions!) and place a brick on it until it sets. -shaeff

senior projectionist/manager of the local movie theater. i get to hang out in an air conditioned projection booth and play with 30+ thousand dollar projectors/platter systems, do maintenance on them, and keep 'em in good shape... etc... i make $9.50 an hour, which sucks, but hey, it's money...

happy birthday! :) -shaeff

heh, there are a few threads going on about this right now. i think it's been decided that 1" is too much. roughly 5mm of washers *should* do the trick. check out the reference section:) -shaeff

my setup consists of: -2 rockford fosgate 150w 2 way(directional tweeters)6.5's custom mounted in the doors -two pioneer 350w 4 way 6.9's in custom boxes in the rear of the hatch -a damn fine pioneer head unit (cost over $500, cant remember the model #) -a crappy radioshack amp that...
