    does anyone know where to get this piece off the block from? (pics!)

    I'd find another dealer, like Champion. ;) Kids these days, with their crazy math, huh? :p

    exhaust??

    Stock. Stock sounds good on an NA engine. ;) Seriously though, I've only heard a 6m that sounded better as a result of exhaust changes. Thing had custom a custom header, and something like 2.25" piping all the way back to a Magnaflow twin tip muffler. That car sounded nice, but most NA cars...

    New time 11.81 @ 117 CT26 powered 7M NEW RECORD!!!

    If he had cams, it would still be making power up to 6500 and wouldn't just be to keep it revved high for the next gear... WINK WINK. ;)

    weekly car debate thread.

    Hmm... good comparison, for the class. I'm sure they're natural rivals to some. Personally, I almost bought an SRT4 before getting my first Supra. Then I thought about what I could do to a Supra with 20k, and went the route I went, and am a much happier (and faster) man for it. :) If I had to...

    Looking at it again, how the hell does that fit under the hood?

    anybody need a good laugh?

    You really think so? If that's the case, I think we'd all be considered fools, selling SUPRA parts to other Supra owners... Psh, what sense is there in THAT? And Grim, dealership prices for pretty much anything on our cars (cars in general?) are beyond ridiculous...

    1JZ-GTE - CT-12 Wastegates

    You'll have to post up when you get it figured out. Nothing like coming across a promising thread when searching for your woes, only to find a dead thread with no solution or explanation...

    Supra #389 rolled into my local dealership

    That's pretty cool actually, I guess that means you're winning for the time being. Given 25 years and the tortures of time, I'm sure you'll hold that title for a long time, as the odds of someone having an even earlier car are rather slim...

    Maybe this is a cousin or distant relative of his..?

    What "weight" is listed on your title?

    What the hell is a 'kg'? :p

    Funniest thing you've ever heard about your supra.

    For the most part, I've learned that cars can be a lot like discussing religion or politics, a headache for the even somewhat educated person in that discussion. :nono:

    What Is Unique About Your MK3???

    I've seen one of those before... but not on a white car! Kinda like it, oddly. Reminds me of the NSX. Will get to that one of these days. I usually only get on here at work, but now that I have internet at home, I can post pics once again. Waiting on the fenders and hood to show up before...

    New power!!!! 404HP 405ft lbs @ the wheels CT26 on 17.5lbs

    I know, but that was with stickier tires, wasn't it? I just can't see my car running a 1.6 even though the low end power is there, it's just hard to launch on boost with a 5 speed.

    walked a Cobra!

    Well done man. Not everyone will thrash every last ounce of performance out of a car, so the win might have been due to the Cobra owner being scared to push his car. By all rights, the LS1 Camaros I've run against up here should have had me pretty easy, but it seems people are too scared to keep...

    V-mounted MKIII Third times the charm.

    Very interesting, was tossing the idea around for my car recently, trying to figure out a way to do it though, has been my issue. Will be following this thread, might borrow an idea or two. ;)

    Decisions desicions....Career path related advice greatly appreciated!

    I can't say much from the medical field, but I will say that if 65k-90k isn't enough for you, you might need to set your sights a bit higher. Depending on the area, that's pretty damned good money unless you're trying to feed a dozen mooch...er, children.

    what i saw on a four banger

    Monster in disguise? If there's one car I've learned not to underestimate, it's old boxy Volvos... That intake manifold doesn't look stock to me either.
