    Lambo Doors?

    I'm actually kinda considering lambo doors. For one, just to annoy my boss, and second when parked it tight quarters i think they'd work better to get out

    MegaSquirt II Successfully Running on 7M-GTE!!! (Lots of pics and walkthrough)

    Apparantly you can buy it partially assembled or you can get it completely unassembled form from Megasquirt. Does the partial assembly cost more than the entire DIY version since part of its already done for you?

    MegaSquirt II Successfully Running on 7M-GTE!!! (Lots of pics and walkthrough)

    This sounds really good. I had been thinking about running Megasquirt or AEM but wasn't sure there was enough support for Megasquirt. Which is definately the way i'll be going now. I like to build as much as i can for my car to keep costs down, lol. I know, i'm a cheapass

    Bilstein Coilovers

    Thats awesome, if i had a shock dyno, i would have built my own also. But instead i went Megan because i thought they would handle me good and they have. Perhaps one day down the road when i've expanded my practice will i then create my own coilovers! Where'd you do the "forumal SAE" at?

    S2 Now makes Carbon doors :)

    If only we could get 9 or 10 people out of the 1000's at Supramania!!! But yeah, totally, a cage with door beams is exactly what i'll be running with or without the doors, and the my cage is going to be welded into the body too, so once again, i wouldn't even need doors, so why not go with the...

    S2 Now makes Carbon doors :)

    Seems like its good. I have access to many small obscure yet awesome parts manufactures, and there's actually alot out there for MKIII's. Unfortunately you have to order them in japanese and they cost an arm and a leg to bring over here cuz you have to get them in a container. On a different...

    S2 Now makes Carbon doors :)

    Thats why its not practical if you intend of keeping the amenities. I just want the carbon door shell. Lexan window, or maybe none at all (depends what the tracks rules are). A tenth of a second drag racing, but on a road course, or autocrossing, weight savings and weight distribution are very...

    JDM engines = AWW CRAP (NO 56k!)

    My 7M's a JDM and it hasn't had any problems except for the one's i've created for it. But they're not engine mechanically related!

    4 piston calipers in supra

    Are there any calipers that will grip all the way down on the rotor fin? See the unglazed ring around the rotor surface, if you were clamping down on all that, that would add alot more stopping friction!

    JDM engines = AWW CRAP (NO 56k!)

    Well your freak or nature died again huh? Too bad. I'm surprised you're going 1J since you were telling me what a torqueless wonder it is. ;)

    4 piston calipers in supra

    Still nobody is saying yes or no, just hearsay. Do the MK4 calipers bolt straight up WITHOUT the MK4 knuckle? Kinda sounds like no. And although some rotors may be bigger, how much of that is the actual rotor. Cuz alot of times when there are bigger rotors, the hat is just bigger and the actual...

    4 piston calipers in supra

    Don't the MK4 calipers bolt right up? I have a friend with a Lexus SC that told me Lexus LS and MK4 calipers would bolt onto an MK3. I'm not in the market for brakes yet so i haven't confirmed, but is that true? And there's lots of people talking about things that fit and don't fit in here, i...

    Staticpat's Redneck Rodknock fix OR How-To drop Oilpan

    I just wanted to add you don't have to get an alignment just from disconnecting tie rods. I mean if you unthread them off the rod then yeah, but all you have to do is take them out of the knuckle and the whole tie-rod is intact. Then the knuckle will just turn freely left and right until you...

    How to create a turbo Cold air intake

    I've had a good number of people PM me about this so instead of writing it over and over again, i figured i'd post it. At Pep Boyz buy 3 65 degree bend pipes, 1 vacuum port pipe (all these are on the same shelf), 1 MAF adaptor plate (the one that says it fits the 86-92 Supra non turbo) 1...

    96 v6 camaro vs my 90 7mgte

    yeah i knew a guy that later became a friend that later became an enemy that had the shittiest '86 V6 Camaro you've ever seen. It looked like it was a stunt car that got wrecked in a movie yet he still drove it some how. Talked the biggest shit about how fast his camaro was, 400hp, muscle car...

    Looking for input, pros/cons peoples experiences

    This is kind of similar to the "which motor" post. After weighing everything again, i've concluded i'm done with the 7M for the practicality of racing as the 1 & 2J's have a more favorable powerband for time trials and endurance racing. My last post in the other thread is...

    Drifting Suspension

    Preload 'em. If you wanna drive up to SR again we can wrench and get KFC. Mine is also alot lower and i have 18s with 255s in the front and 275s in the rear. I have no more than a 1 finger gap in the front, maybe a little less and preloaded the hell out of 'em. Had no rubbing at all when i was...
