    New paint job on my old car. Come see.

    Over the years I've painted a whole bunch of cars at home in the shed, here's the Z straight off the gun un buffed a week after I painted it. The secret is in the prep work you can't shortcut it. http://ij.supramania.com/datto15.jpg

    Going to the Dyno for the first time and have questions.

    My car has spent 16 hours on the dyno in the last 6 months without a single failure so it can be done you just need to be smart about it and follow Mike's advice.

    I'm just not happy with my Supra so far..

    The composite HG acts as a burst panel during detonation and can save the engine from mechanical damage so can be a good thing. Rgr 2j HG is an MLS stock.

    I'm just not happy with my Supra so far..

    Dave: He has next to no fuel controls so the chances that he'll detonate it are better than even if he keeps pushing the envelope. Yes a composite HG can be fine if kept out of detonation.

    I may be an asshole but I DON'T build grenades.... Leave it alone until you can afford/have time to do it properly, cranking more boost/power into it as it is will only end one way and then it will cost you triple to repair...... :nono:

    Going to the Dyno for the first time and have questions.

    Make sure the operator is 100% clear on if it shows ANY signs of stress at all to abort. If it survives check Coolant and Oil before driving it home.

    Whats the fastest?

    Don't think it's so much "hate" as it is people being realists An NA Supra is neither quick nor fast 200hp at the crank and a 3500+ Lb car is never going to be either anyone that thinks differently is just deluding themselves.

    cams cams cams

    Local company Wade Cams here in Australia, they're hard face welded so the same shit they use on the teeth on Bulldozer buckets, been running them for years now and there's 0 wear. Back when I had them done Billets were rare and I didn't want a reduced base circle.
