...and I acknowledge and respect you for that.:icon_bigg

So I'm about to order a set of the Tein super street coilovers and I read the installation and adjustment instructions online and all over it says, "for off road use only". What does this mean? My car is a daily driver. Is this just Tein's way of covering their asses? Should these...

I tend to think that particular turbo (t78) while being an older design would work (i.e. spool up quicker) more successfully on a higher compression motor.

Just curious... are you swapping to gte electronics?

I didn't read the thread but that's a lousey looking custom...

Anyplace that might have Supra Mkiii specific parts in stock? You know speed shops etc...

Yes and Yes. Well actually it's alot better if that's what you already have.

Hmmm...Am I reading this correctly (I'm tired) It looks like they're the same exact cam....that can't be right. Can somebody enlighten me?

First of all I'm not getting into a flame war. Have you heard me say anything mean or cutting? No you haven't. The fact is alot of people don't like the piston squirters. And yes they do to lower oil pressure, period. If you want to believe otherwise fine, I dont care, but facts are facts...

That's alot of dough, but like I always say "you only go around once". Good for you!

Lookin' good. What do you anticipate this whole deal's gonna cost when it's all said and done? Don't forget you gotta dyno it to get all that horsepower you paid for!

I think your gonna want to run the na cams, as I recall (somebody check me on this) the n/a cam has more lift and duration then the turbo cams. As far as the pistons go, I'm checking on them and I'll get back to you. I know alot of guys have used the thicker head gaskets to lower...

Sorry for the schecter remark. Frankly, I like classic electrics (es335's, strats, tele's, gretch country gentleman's..you get the idea) and really wouldn't know a schecter from a washburn from one of those Gene Simmons head chopper offer basses. Pantera yeah...I'm not in a complete...

For that kinda dough (cheap) I'm willing to cut to size and buy the good connectors. I think I might get one.

Not to go off topic but...if this becomes the prevailing attitude why are we even here? Isn't the whole idea to share and learn from eachothers experiences? I'm not picking on you lagged, it just seems that I see alot of flaming and or writing people off cause they don't know as much as...

Actually, (and I know someones gonna flame me for this) the N/A manifold has been shown to flow better then the turbo manifold. This makes turbo guys pissed cause they like to be superior to us little NA<T guys. They get especially pissed when you race them and hand them their asses. I...

And who do you know that drives their Supra at low rpm's? I guess what your saying here is that the oil squirters only lower oil pressure at high rpm's...excellent...seems to me high rpm's would be the last place you would want lower oil pressure. C'mon Shaef, you're killing me here. Why...

Yeah, you can still use the 7mge pistons but your are going to have to be carefull about how much boost you run and your air fuel mixture, not to mention timing. I've done it, as have many others quite successfully. The best would be (as long as you have the motor apart), to spring for some...

Shaeff- I think your wrong to characterize what I said as misinfo. While it may be your opinion (and others) that the oil squirters are the greatest thing ever, there are also plenty of people who don't think much of them. You must know plenty of people who don't think the benefits of oil...

Huh? Lots and lots of people have done it. My na/t has a 7mge bottom end and I smoke the shit out of gte's all the time. In fact the slightly higher compression will actually work in your favor if the motor, turbo and safc are set up properly. You get all the tractability of an na with the...
