    88 7MGTE into 90 body questions

    I recently purchased a 88 Turbo supra as a parts car. I didn't even think of the differences between pre 89 and post 89. My question is how hard would it be to swap the 88 Turbo electronics into my 90 n/a? I have everything on the 88 and everything on the 90.

    So this is my first build thread. Its a 90 Supra, 7M-GE, but here goes. The not so bad side. (Which is worse than it looks when you get inside the wheel well) The worse side Inside, passenger side It looks really bad, but a majority of it is just surface rust. Everywhere...

    Fixing Rust

    Ill try to post up some pictures within the week. The car isnt in my driveway so yeah. Personally, I think it wouldnt be too bad making patch panels, but I guess ive never done it before. The only plus is that no one sees it. You just have to make it fit. It was my goal to have atleast a...

    Fixing Rust

    Is there any place I could buy patch panels for the rear wheel wells?? Or do I have to make them myself? Just wondering because I found rust in the rear quarters, and behind the little plastic cover in front of the rear wheels, not sure about behind the rear bumper, but yeah. I have my work...

    does anyone make CF doors?

    I like the look of a white car with carbon doors and hood (and possibly even trunk lid), but only on a few cars. s2000 looks great, evo X, and a few others.

    Decisions, Decisions, Decisions.... Need your opinion

    As long as both surfaces have been machined, (machined well that is) then a mhg should do fine. MHGs dont like conforming to not flat surfaces.

    Decisions, Decisions, Decisions.... Need your opinion

    As far as i know, you cant just clean up the surfaces and throw on a mhg.

    Ever get mad at the previous owner of your car?

    Yes and kinda no. He did torque down the head to 70 ft lbs, but he also was too lazy to change the valve cover gaskets, power steering rack, and when he replaced the hatch struts, he decided to just cut two holes in the interior panels to get to the bolts. It has an immaculate interior though...
