    T56 swap onto 2jz pics

    People don't stick these things in just about anything without a good reason... ;)

    clean swap wiring and engine bay ideas?

    Pretty much. Either use an existing hole (I believe we stuffed mine in the speedometer cable hole), or get a hole saw and make your own. As for the existing harness hole on the passenger side, you can either weld in a new piece of metal and make it look really good, or use some Hondabond and one...

    Engine swap for the better or worse?

    Eh, I can see where he's thinking that. First, a little information: 5m - Was found in the MA61 (Mk2 Supra), it displaces 2.8L. Two valve per cylinder head design 7m - Was found in the MA70 (Mk3 Supra), it displaces 3.0L. Four valve per cylinder head design. Now, the reason the 7m...

    Crazy how fast your life can flash in front of your eyes..

    I would disagree on this. You might not be able to get out of the building cars game, but you can get out of the Supra game. For what it's worth, the 87 I'm building will most likely be my last Supra that I buy. Gotta have a little variety in the garage man...

    Recommended Tires

    ^These are the Hankook RS3's you speak of? Hmm... may have to look into them, that's some awfully high praise there. :) As for not competing making sticky rubber not as useful, there are people like me, who only have about 6 months a year where it is warm enough outside to use such rubber on...

    H6054 Projectors

    Son of a b... the one time I second guess myself. :nono: I swear I get you two confused more than ANY other people on here. :rofl: Let me know when you do, I'll buy a set. In a position where money shouldn't be a problem either. :)

    Anyone know about steering rack updates?

    Destrux, thanks for all the work you've put into this, and thanks for sharing. Really is nice to have members who keep a thread alive and useful like this. Hi-five to you sir. :) However, has anyone driven a car with absolutely NO dead spot in the center of the steering? I always figured that...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Well I would be posting a picture of the manifold I just bought, but UPS seems to have delivered it somewhere other than my house. I have a couple guesses as to where, going to be talking to some neighbors in a few. Still... rather frustrating.

    rear subframe update

    Why. Are. You. Talking so. Strangely? Have you been watching a Shatner week or something? :p

    Greddy T78 Turbo kit?

    There was also a JZ powered Cressida that whooped a whole lot of Mustang ass if I remember correctly. Either way, Toyota inline 6 with boost are the only setups I've ever seen on there that did well at all. Come to think of it, they should have a round of Pinks where nobody can enter a Fox or...

    Metal Heads Unite!

    Wait until you get a bit older, you start missing things you would have dropped everything for all the time. Then again, to go to a good concert for me, involves a good 4-8 hours of driving to SLC or Denver. :(

    Supra Sucessor Confirmed! Read here:

    JZM? That would be as bad as GM going and re-using the LT designation for the new Corvette motor, for the forty-second time. :p They were good incentive to not crash. ;) I hope you're wrong, but only because the IS platform in its current iteration is already 7 years old now. Otherwise, I...

    Metal Heads Unite!

    Jeff, you hit a nail on a head, Rammstein put out some great stuff over the years. I still want to see them live, hear nothing but good things... Anyone remember Corrosion of Conformity?

    New Initial D: Stage 5

    Nissan did a Turbo 280zx for a few years, with a L28ET... single turbo, but if you wanted to, a twin setup probably wouldn't be hard to manage. Trick is finding a good Z-car that hasn't been eaten up by rust.

    I saw this on facebook, and said hey you're an MKIV owner??

    Ahh, Sonic... your local ricer gathering. Used to see that shit ALL the time when I worked at the Blockbuster on 35th and Union Hills in Phoenix. Without fail, every single Saturday night...

    A note from the black supra

    I would say "kinda creepy", but I did that to a MkII once... And you know how I know you guys care about keeping your car from prying eyes? You have sun visors in the windshields, yet there is snow on the ground. :p

    Look what we just got! A Z10 Soarer!

    Why do we never get cool shit like that? That is awesome! Probably predates most electric folding hardtops by a long shot...

    Another addition to the stable...

    NA, it *might* work. Boosted though? Unless you like boiling coolant, I'd say 1200cfm is going to be about as useful as blowing on it yourself. :nono: Wouldn't surprise me, most cars of that era did, with a few exceptions. This was essentially the predecessor to the Fairlady Z, so I would guess...

    1946 Chevy Fleetmaster 2-door, meet "Betty"...

    Made a bit of progress over the past couple days, as well as a couple discoveries. -Passenger side door and (half of) the rear body is stripped down to spots of original primer. -Finding that the running board is shot, not only beneath the door, but into the body shell behind it. This could...

    Supra Sucessor Confirmed! Read here:

    A proper successor to the MkIV? And by proper, I mean an aluminum block I6 (I'd settle for a v8, but an I6 would be more "Supra"), turbocharged, rear-drive, lightweight (no more batteries than it takes to start the car dammit), that wavelength you mean? I've seen this same thing on a few...
