    how many cans of paint will i need to paint my supra

    When I repainted my Supra a few months ago I spent around $400 in materials alone to prep and paint the Supra. That's not including the cost of an agitating gun (required to spray a paint with metal flake like mine) and the rubbing compound the body shop used.

    Battery in Trunk - How have you?

    Too bad that setup isn't track legal since the battery isn't in a battery box.

    Battery in Trunk - How have you?

    I dropped my tank down (not fully), drilled 2 holes, and used 2 long threaded rods. I have washers and lock nuts on both the bottom and the top of the floor to secure it. Here's a pic of how I ran my negative cable. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1071082&postcount=305

    Upgraded front brakes 300 zx calipers.

    Nice find Tom. I say just give up and get a different set of wheels so you can properly fit a BBK. Even though you have extremely sexy rims.

    11PSI fresh 7m VS '90 non turbo "built"

    Think about my car Nomad, it looks like an N/A Supra from the outside but under the hood is a 1JZ-GTE twin-turbo. And not hearing the BOV doesn't mean squat since you can always recirculate the BOV venting back into the exhaust to make it silent.

    Speedo Accuracy in Videos - is 204 mph really 204 mph?

    The last 4 times I've been pulled over by cops the officer quoted the exact speed my GPS showed, not my guage cluster speedo speed. This was with bot a Garmin (don't remember the model since it was stolen) and more recently my Tom Tom One 3rd Edition. I trust my Tom Tom's speedo before I trust...

    Project Clean 87

    I tried my hand at pounding out the dent in my fender and this is the result. I think I am just going to give in a buy a new fender.

    w58 with a 7M-GTE?

    400 WHP and you don't ever launch it??? That's why the tranny isn't giving you issues. You aren't doing any WOT runs through the gears.

    Project Clean 87

    I picked up my replacement trim piece from mattsplat72 this weekend along with a matching piece for the other side (to make it match, and since I'll be converting to the lighter style anyway). My replacement clear bubble marker arrived yesterday, along with my set of 440's. I dropped the 2J...

    Does anybody slide their mkIII?

    I enjoy kicking my rear end out once in a while, but as a few others have already said, I prefer grip driving (hence the build for the road course and not the drift course). Both require a lot of skill, but with grip driving you aren't breaking parts nearly as often (especially ripping off...

    w58 with a 7M-GTE?

    Don't put a W58 in your Supra. Especially since you are already at 310 RWHP and I'm assuming have plans for even more power. Save yourself the time and money and just put in an R154. I have over 310 RWHP that is going through my R154 and it is holding up like a champ without any issues...

    ku engineering FFIM

    I'm glad you're a newb that actually knows how to use the search engine. As far as that FFIM goes, it looks nice, but I have never seen it on any Supra. Although this is the better deal. Ron Ramirez builds very, very nice FFIM's. This is also cheaper too (allowing for the extra money to be...

    Project Clean 87

    Well, my wideband decided it wanted to work again. I have no clue why it stopped. I now have for sale 1 blue 4-ply 45 degree 2.5" coupler, 2 2.5" blue 4-ply couplers, 4 2.5" T-Bolt clamps, and a never used 2.5" aluminum 45 degree piping piece. The dent in the fender looks like it can be...

    Project Clean 87

    I just picked up the Supra and the damage really is minor. My welder gave me a pair of sawblades with cheap tires that have 30% left on them for free. I'm so happy to have the Supra back. Although on my way to school my damn PLX M-300 stopped working suddenly. Hopefully I can fix the...
