    Looking for plug wire suggestions for 1989 MkIII Turbo.

    NGK's are practically top of the line, to be honest. The only 'performance' wire available to my knowledge, are either MSD's, or preferably, Magnecor's. The MSD's worked fine for me, but the plug boots became brittle after about a year...

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    No, mine didn't break. LOL- what does that even mean?? :) Pearl black sounds pretty hot, actually.

    Issues please help!

    Well, basically, yes. The fuel has already been determined for the amount of air in the piping, but when you vent and the air isn't returned post MAF, then the fuel amount becomes incorrect(rich).

    Project Silence

    You're going to put NSX headlights on your car? You do realize that the average price for just ONE headlight is two to three times what you paid for the car... I say go custom if you want to spend less than $2,000 on your headlights.

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    So I've been slowly finishing the engine tranny updates for the car, but not in a big hurry, because I realize there are quite a number of steps before I can put it in the car, if I want to do it semi-right: Degrease and touch up the engine bay Do some -AN crap to the fuel feed line at the...

    intercooler

    Yes, this surprised me. I rolled my car out of the garage to remove my dp and exhaust, as well as the intake pipe, and entire IC system/ piping to sell off. The I realized that it would be almost impossible for me to push the car back uphill into the garage. So for giggles, I started it, and...

    2013 Southeast Celica/Supra Meet

    Not a single supra at the supra meet-LMAO! That would be the quintessential MkIII "Supra" meet. Every single guy would show up in a truck or an accord, explaining how there Supra is 'almost' ready to drive. That's the MkIII crowd, though. Unlike the MkIV guys, we have to deal with modifications...

    Agreed. Can you describe the fabricating process, or do you have more pics?

    Looking forward to the pics. Why is the project called "silence"?

    OldCrappySupra - Wheels for my old bones

    Looking great, man. I might need to look into that ceramic paint. I'd like to coat my turbine housing and manifold, and save the wrap for the downpipe.

    Project Super Slow

    That part is a common failure point. You can remove the charcoal cannister, but once you cap off the lines i think you need to change out the fuel cap to a venting type.

    Electrical question - coolant warning switch

    Sorry, didn't mean to 'make' you go do that, but glad you did. Yeah, that's the switch i'm looking at, the one with the '73'' on it.

    Supra MK3 Project

    The springs are Intrax. In my opinion they sit too low, and apparently the previous owner thought so too. Good luck with car!

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    Like i said, meteor grey up to and including the moldings, then bright silver up top. I've got awhile till i have to decide, though.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Welcome to the AW11 club. Mine's a black '86 5-spd.

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    Well, it'll never be solid silver. At least half the car will be original meteor grey, or something close to it, like the current Lexus color. I'm just trying to decide if i want two-tone.
