    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    Just a few new parts in lately... Started mounting the PLX's, and have begun the wiring. Also, got the coils in for the "morganson" COP setup. Still waiting for someone to come up with a mounting plate. If necessary, i'll make one myself.

    Supra + Faye = Love. My first build thread. (beware, picture heavy...)

    I get what its like to be emotionally tied to your Supra... My friends have asked me for over a decade, why i still own it and spend money on it... BUT...I might suggest that its cheaper to have a tattoo shop modify your vin tat, rather than fix everything that's wrecked on your Supra. I was...

    B&G Springs

    I think that the Eibach's are a great spring. I had intrax on mine first, but got rid of them as soon as i could afford the eibach's. The Intrax's were an even drop, but too low. The Eibach's are progressive wound, so they're somewhat soft like stock, until you really push the car. They dropper...

    morganson's COP S-Type setup

    Also, what material did you use for your black mounting plate? Is it also made of phenolic resin?

    Sheedy Built Supra

    Just so you know... If that stainless fuel line to your rail ever touches that bare contact on you alternator underneath it... You lose the car. I almost did. Switched to nylon covered braid and used a rubber terminal cover off a Toyota pickup.

    morganson's COP S-Type setup

    Morganson- can you post all the dimensions that you used for the CAD design? We could use that as a template if a premade mounting plate ends up being a no-go.

    Apropos of nothing whatsoever, anyone ever neglect to secure their targa top?

    I lost my original years ago. It was summer time, and the weather had been great for days, so I was running with the top off all day. That night, I put it back on the car, just in case there was any dew in the morning(and because my apt. complex wasn't exactly Melrose Place.) I was simply...

    Cross-compatible radiator fans?

    Just wanted to add a pic: The Lexus LS400 fan is BARELY smaller than the shroud opening, but IMO- too tight to safely run. If someone were so inclined, they could certainly shave a 1/4" from the blades to make it a perfect size. The problem with that of course, is getting it perfectly balanced...

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    Got a couple new parts today. New oem shroud, and new oem fan(yes, it is the 7 blade). Also, I got a baffled VMS catch can. It's about 1 1/4" smaller in diameter than my previous can, and so it will fit along side my power steering resevoir, up behind the passenger headlight. The pliers...

    Nothing special, but I got a baseline dyno of my engine before it gets EMS + 58mm T4

    Thats really good. I got about 260/260 on stock with similar exhaust setup, at about 8psi.

    Anyone else interested in a vinyl dash cover?

    Don't think they made another one, so i'll have to give myself a new deadline, based on another form of armageddon... How a bout... "Project 'Git'R Done' before the Earth Hits the Sun" ? Hopefully, that'll give me some extra time...

    Anyone else interested in a vinyl dash cover?

    LOL. I'm in Lawrenceville, south of the mall too. Hit me up if you ever need anything. I'm still in full restoration mode for at least another 6 months.

    Arp headstud free spinning

    For studs that are taking that kind of stress, I wouldn't use a regular helicoil. Maybe timesert's.
