Just came across this while bored waiting for something to download, looks interesting - convert your 7M-GTE from AFM to a MAP setup: http://www.powerhouseracing.com/files/catalog.php?make=Toyota&model=Supra%20MK3&catagory=Electronics It might have been mentioned before though....

I run Nexen N2000's on mine - £115 a pair. They're 225/50 R 16, V rating.

Theres a JDM Short Shift Kit available on ebay for £119 at the moment - take a looksie: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220015481977 Says it'll fit the 1JZ, 1G, 7M's etc.

Getting a clip for the loom is waaaay too much compared to just the engine on its own, outside my budget, at least going by driftmotions prices. I'm going to check Arnouts Supra Site for the other conversion info, that seems pretty in-depth :) As for the mounts - $175 for the mounts...

Buying a house is nowhere near possible for me, not until 2012 at least. Rent is all sorted too, so i dont need to plough it into that either. As for ancillaries, i'm looking at the '89 to '92 spec USDM taillights that we never got here in the UK - they look quite nice and after looking at that...

Yeah, i'd need to change the front crossmember not just the mounts, right? Is there anyplace that sells, ready made, the MA70 1JZ loom and all the swap parts, or is that a job for Eddie again? :D

an RHD 1JZ? Well, looked through the list already, theres a 1G-GTE in the lineup of the available ones, but no 1JZ's, certainly not for a measly grand anyway, even if i sold my N/A, i'd still be limited to a halfway decent 7M-GTE, maybe even a manual one. Thats why i was looking at driftmotion...

Aaah! The fog lifts, all becomes clear :P Well, as much as that could be fun, the girlfriend would not be impressed, and just think of all that spendable money that would be going....well it wouldnt be going anywhere! :D

I'm trying to understand what your post was about, I understood none of it :shrug:

Que?

Trying to find bodyshops and engine suppliers in the UK to do a little price/window shopping - any fellow UK members have any leads/urls? Cheers and TIA

Holy Crap! I just checked driftmotion and suddenly, i'm not so sure about anything again! 1JZ Complete engine (looks like it includes turbo's) for $1000, which would leave me $900 for shipping and/or accessories - aaaugh!!!!! :aigo:

Problem is, in the UK finding a Manual Turbo is nigh on impossible, almost all but the most expensive, are automatics. My N/A has a lot invested in it and i'd like to keep it if at all possible. I'm inclined to go for the rust repair and respray, followed by the trim replacement (front bits near...

Yeah the rust repair is just a small amount around the arches - common stuff. Not wanting a whole body respray either - just a touchup in the original colour, get the lacquer back on the spoiler etc. Looking into the cost for it right now - yellow pages rock :D

I've just recieved a £1000 windfall from Mr Tax Man, and i'm unsure as to how to spend it. Lets face it, saving isnt fun :biglaugh: So, i have a few options: 1) Take my Supra, E136GRK, to the bodyshop for a re-spray and rust repair 2) Buy a 7M-GTE engine & harness and do a swap (assuming...

Supercharged Ariel Atom? Yes Please :D

LOL! So, who's in charge of producing this movie then? :biglaugh:

Yeah, thanks to one of the other UK members here, i managed to get a whole package of wheelnuts that were 'going spare' after a few of mine had gone bye bye! If and when i can help others out, I will, just ask ;) Glad i found this place :)

I know that you can get some bulbs that are just LED's with the screwcap/bayonet from a regular bulb. Halfords here do them in Brilliant White, Red and Orange for replacement use in rear lamps, there might exist smaller ones.

The alarm on mine is an old 1980's Piranha alarm that was fitted by the dealership. No clue of the model, but it seems to work okay :)
