    Bad MBC? LOL

    DAMN man! Was that pretty much solid metal where it's melted?! You may want to invest in a MBC that can be mounted to the firewall or near the stuts with bolts. How did you have that thing mounted?!

    shocks

    I'm all for the kyb's (plan on replacing my tems with kyb's), has ne one heard good things from rs-r springs? I'm looking for a more performance oriented ride as this car is not my dd, rs-r claims to be better than eibach (more load handling capability or something like that). They've got two...

    stalled in mass rain storm!!!!!

    I would def change the oil in that thing pronto. You are very lucky to not have killed the engine for good, most cars would have kicked the can as soon as that happend. I would also check the intercooler and piping for holes or leaks, water shouldn't have gotten into that engine unless that was...

    intercooler spray

    This sounds very interesting, a cheap way to make the intercooler more efficient and squeeze some extra power out of the supra. What do you all think, 10-20 whp gain by doing either the headlight sprayers or windsheild sprayers... Or how about this, BOTH windsheild and headlight sprayers?

    Carbon Fiber Wing on the Sup!!!!, APex Neo question.

    I have to admit... That looks fugly on a supra... Or anything else for that matter. If anyone was to drive around in thier supra with a spoiler like that, then someone should confiscate the car... and give it to of course ;). I would then take the spoiler off and sell it to some dumbass ricer...

    how high can i go

    I think you shouldn't even be asking that question until you get a MHG put on the engine correctly. I say correctly because the mechanic my cousin hired to do the job didn't tighten the ARP studs enough or didn't do it in the right sequence.

    cleaning up under the hood

    Okay, I took out the entire AC system on BOTH supra's this weekend, this is what I have: The AC pump- aprox 17lbs. AC condenser and all the lines under the hood related to AC, along with the little fan on the radiator and the bigger fan on the condensor- aprox. 17lbs. I didn't touch the...

    Ummm.. So this was kinda scary.

    Same here, my baby stays parked beside my cousin's supra at his house (his=bhg, go figure, dumb ass mechanics didn't tighten the ARP's to 75lbs, prob 58 like factory) mine runs, just needs to have new studs placed into the head on the exhaust side to snug up the manifold, stockers are stripped...

    You know you're a Supra owner when...

    When you read this entire thread while at work (took about 3 hours to do, had to look like I was doing something every now and then;) ). Man, most of this stuff is too true...:3d_frown:

    550s

    If you ever decide to go for more horse power, go ahead and get a slightly larger injector, like venom's plug and play 660's, you can never have too much fuel ;), but you can have too little. If you ever decide to go maft-pro then this will be a little insurance to make sure you don't max out...

    power steering resovior

    I wonder if i can somehow force a foam type filter into the new ps resivoir. Is that what type of filter is in the stock one or is it a filter like in a fuel filter line or an air cleaning filter?

    LOUISVILLE SUPRA MEET

    Man, I wish i could go to this supra meet, but damn, there's a bike rally in Bowling Green on the same weekend! I'll pick titties and beer over dudes and cars this weekend since I haven't been to a rally in a year ;) . This sucks, even to get my supra over there I would need to license it and...

    cleaning up under the hood

    If you take the heater core out will you still be able to use any of the fans inside of the supra? I'm not sure how all of that is hooked up as I've never been under the dash in mine yet....

    Making the engine stand out

    The reason i was asking was because i seen this on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200022014787&sspagename=ADME%3AL%3ARTQ%3AUS%3A1&rd=1 It got my curiosity piqued and I remembered seeing others with similar setups on their supras so I was seeing how...

    power steering resovior

    Is the power steering resivoir hollow inside? I found an OBX power steering resivoir on the internet and was toying with the idea of taking the stock one out and relocating the OBX one somewhere out of the way. I didn't know if there was anything inside of it or not. I'm trying to clean up my...
