    LOUISVILLE SUPRA MEET

    Well guys, I may be able to make it to the meet. I'll have a definite answer next sunday, but I won't be able to drive my supra or my cousin's up there. I'll let you know then, and I'll skim over the thread throughout the week to get the location down pat on where the meet is. Until then guys...

    ATI performance Damper

    Don't put anything OBX on your car unless it's something that doesn't bolt directly up to the engine, they suck. I do have a couple of OBX parts on my car, but they are a catch can and a radiator resivoir tank (no harm done there).

    Wreck Supra

    Heh, then the guy driving the honda will think he's got a "Supra Civic". Dumbass probably wouldn't even know that the spoiler wasn't meant to be anywhere near a supra.

    How is this compatible with a 7MGTE?

    I don't know of anyone personally that is running this manifold. If someone has it, please let us know. Edit: I do believe that the holes for the exhaust studs are off on this and need to be relocated, which in turn may compromise the integrity of the manifold (not to mention possibly messing...

    BOV Leak

    Easy and relatively inexpensive fix (except buying the BOV): cut the pipe off around the BOV, buy one of those pipes off ebay with your choice of brand of BOV inset welded in already, two silicon hoses on each side, 4 t-bolt clamps, and a new BOV to match the insert on the pipe, fixed.

    A bunch of water in my Stock Exhaust

    I'd say some of that fluid is also raw fuel seeing as our cars can run very rich. Ever been behind a car when it takes off and see fluid pour outa the exhaust pipe? Yeah....

    TEMS system

    I think that company should rename thereselves to HK$, as just about anything made by them costs big $$$. I'm not knockin them for that though, I have several HKS parts and they are all top notch stuff. Suspension wise, try something cost effective: KYB's and RS-R sport or racing springs...

    How is this compatible with a 7MGTE?

    Ditto on that, I read one of the posts concerning that exact style manifold. It was indeed confirmed a 7m mani. Search for it and you will find the opinions others had on it...

    What to buy next...

    A little shouldn't hurt much, maybe 1-2 psi, no more until you either get a new tune, ic, or both. Trust me, that intercooler with help out a good deal.

    aftermarket rings..

    Clevite 77 bearings... You can get them at jscspeed.com. If you get ARP rod bolts, I would suggest using stretch gauge on these to determine how tight the bolts need to be as the stretch gauges are more acurate than a torch wrench. I belive ARP mentions this in thier catalog and they sell the...

    Seriously now, how heavy is a mk3 turbo?

    TEMS system

    I've heard that tokico's aren't a very well made brand of shock and many ppl have problems with them blowing out and having to get a new one.

    Seriously now, how heavy is a mk3 turbo?

    Ditto on all acounts. I think many of these ppl that buy an expensive car that is way underpowered for the price they paid just want something they think hauls ass out of the box. That way they don't have to get thier hands dirty messing with the car. A word for the wise: you WILL have some...

    Its a goooood day!!!

    Well I believe Hanes (or was it Fruit of the Loom) had to do a little editting on their comercial that only aired at late night. So instead of "balls" they used "boys". Kinda like some women call their boobs "girls" or "ladies".

    Seriously now, how heavy is a mk3 turbo?

    It's kinda sad that these ppl spending big money on cars like evos and SRT-4 WRX's etc., buying all kinda boltons and stuff, and going to a dyno and having someone make it run right for them. You could just spend shit loads less on the supra and get better results, not to mention falling in...

    god i hate my elbow!!!

    My thoughts exactly, just make sure you wipe most of the oil and diesel off before torching it.

    Seriously now, how heavy is a mk3 turbo?

    More weight when scraping for money= more $. Hell all you have to do is look at how much an SRT-4 costs new, take 20K and buy a supra, dump the leftover money into the car, and what do you get? A very reliable supra that will smoke pretty much any person that wants to race you. The supra...

    BOV Leak

    Try backing out the screw some and drive it to test. If backing the screw out little by little and testing does not cure the problem, I'd say it's time for a new BOV. Fixing the diaphram will be more trouble than it's worth when you could get a new BOV for a similar price without the down time...
