    7mgte with ct26 60-1

    Sounds mean. Fix that speedo so we can see how fast it's actually accelerating. ;)

    2012 COLORADO TOYOTA MEET (June 24)

    I'm a little south and west of that. If the supra wasn't burning oil and leaving a smoke screen behind me I'd be game to meet up. Unfortunately, I need to try to minimize my driving. :(

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Mine was getting caught on the crossover the previous owner installed in the door. I'll be cleaning her today! First wash/polish/wax in a long time.

    manual conversion?

    Chassis is all ready for a manual. Has clutch mounting points pre set up. You need clutch, trans, slave, master, brake and clutch pedals, clutch lines, Shifter.... And I think that's it. Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Dropped a grand with Driftmotion. New turbo, coated and polished, softline oil kit, hatch struts and battery tie down. Hell yeah!

    Lets talk Weight Reduction

    It's not useless to inform a relatively low count poster that the extreme weight reduction they are talking about will be challenging on this chassis and that many other chassis will give them a huge head start. Plenty of cars will weigh under 2500 lbs without having to remove major safety...

    want to straight pipe 7mge

    Dumb idea for anything other than a dedicated track car. It'll be loud, annoying and obnoxious. On top of all that, it's completely useless. Instead of the straight pipe, how about you get a high-flow cat? It'll make the car sound better, reduce drone and wont decrease performance at all...

    What would your 1st hand gun be?

    Your first gun shouldn't be one to compensate for the size of your pe... Nevermind. The raging bull looks cool, but isn't much of a functional gun outside of the range. Shoot a few, see what feels best. Nevermind how it looks, pay attention to how comfortable it fits your hand, how...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Compression Check Further proof to me my turbo is to blame for all the smoke coming out the back and the tablespoons of oil in my intake piping... 50 trim upgrade coated and polished from Aaron @ Driftmotion and CT-26 softline oil kit on the way shortly!

    Rota wheels? Very interesting...

    There's a lot of unclear info there. My take is this: Rota designs their own wheels. They also use a manufacturing plant, PAWI, in the Philipines which many other brands and OEMs utilize. Engineering, R&D, Design and testing are very different from manufacturing. Toyota may use the PAWI plant...

    Ah ignorance. That announcer sounds like my ex-boss before HR kicked him out.

    Lets talk Weight Reduction

    Unless you're building a car starting with only a rolling shell, massive weight reduction is dumb on a mk3. There are many better chassis for a stripped track car. Many fat cars COULD be a good track car, but why not start with something already track friendly? Sent from my ADR6400L using...

    Occasional backfiring in between shifts

    Mine does this as well. Stock JDM ECU, no EGR, 3" turbo back Raptor Racing exhaust, open element filter, Bosch BPV (recirculated), Stock timting, TPS is good, etc, etc... My wideband shows I'm around 14.5 until I'm WOT or into boost. At that point it will slowly go richer until it hits about...

    2012 COLORADO TOYOTA MEET (June 24)

    I'll try to make it regardless how the car is at the moment. My turbo appears to be losing its seal for oil and I burn some oil. Nice smelling smoke. :( Unless Aaron can get me a replacement super quick I'll be on the smoking turbo. Other than that, the paint looks pretty rough, and I haven't...

    Seems my head gasket is going...

    In a post a few back, it sounded like you might not take the head to a machine shop. The head needs a quick milling before being reinstalled for the best chance of success. I would STRONGLY advise against simply cleaning it at home and slapping it back on. A shop should charge under $150 for a...

    Seems my head gasket is going...

    $1500 for labor only on a full HG job isn't bad if they do everything right... Ebay gasket kits like that are ok, but I'd never use the headgasket and probably not any of the exhaust gaskets either. While this is a smart idea if you dont know what you're doing or if you dont have the...

    Comprehensive Lighting Modification Thread

    I haven't seen anyone replace the clock with an updated display. I'd like a nice red. Unfortunately, unlike the CC number display, the clock does not appear to be any kind of standardized size and shape. As an update to my needles, the solder joints in the LEDs appear to be intermittent...
