    I was bored one sunday, then this happened. ( SUBWOOFERS in an MK3) Pics!!

    Holy crap man... I've seen some pretty excessive setups, but I'm surprised that fits, height wise... Little bit much for my needs/taste, but a little bit of extra oomph is always nice. Should post this in the "show us your trunks!" thread in this section. ;)

    HSD HR and Stance GR+ coilovers

    No worries Grandavi, just trying to help a group buy happen. :)

    Purchased extended harness need insight!

    If nothing else, Dr Tweak does good work, and could probably help troubleshoot yours if it is something minor.

    BCL GT wings for MKIII interest thread.

    I'll probably run the rear a bit higher than it sits now. It is mostly level front to rear now, so a bit more height in the back should help nip the understeer as well as settle camber where it needs to be. :)

    Spotted: Homer Simpson on Craigslist

    Well welcome back. Never hurts to have a pretty face around to balance out the rest of us. ;) How's the car treating ya?

    MKIII Supra Spoilers?

    Lonnie, that would be from an early Z31, 84-85 had them IIRC. Only thing is, I believe they were functional on those cars. Not to be a downer, but not sure what it would do where yours is positioned... maybe allow some cool air in to get some of the exhaust heat away from the engine and out the...

    Driveshaft Decision. I'm torn. Advice from experienced?

    You know, like the v6 Mustangs... speed limited to 155 because their driveshafts have a nasty tendency of breaking around the 138mph barrier. ;) I believe the carbon has a higher threshold for critical speeds (lighter weight playing the biggest factor I'm guessing), so you would be able to get...

    lsx swap???

    No bias in this post. Check his sig. ;) The initial cost of an LS might be higher, but getting a 1uz up to the same power level without boost levels that playing field quite quickly...

    Is an Mkiii the right car for me?

    OP, see that "how to live with a Supra" thread linked in my signature. You should read that. Gives you an idea of what you can expect, quality of life speaking. Boostmonger is indeed harsh, but like you said, it is a very fair assessment of what to expect when things are a bit rough in the...

    60ft's and MKIII rear ends

    Suprarunner/Jason, that answered my questions. Glad there are people like you guys to push the Supra boundaries a little. Mind my asking what track you do your testing/tuning at? I'm up here in Rock Springs, a weekend trip down there wouldn't necessarily be out of the question...

    HSD HR and Stance GR+ coilovers

    Did you already buy the HSD's? If not, there is another thread in here that links to THmotorsports' group buy on Stance coilovers...

    Help cure cancer for free, join the Supra’s Folding Team!

    I'm still letting the PS3 crank away now and then. Have a little over 50 units completed. :) I forget what "team" it is signed up on though. Might be the PSM (Playstation Magazine) team, been a subscriber of theirs for 15 years now. Playstation is probably the only thing that my loyalty goes...

    ForcedTorque is finally driving every day!

    Really nice handling though, always did like driving it when I got to. Usually when my crap was broken haha... Thought you guys had to replace some of the engine/trans mounts at one point? Honestly, I'm starting to lean toward the 1zz being one of the legendary Toyota engines. Buddy of mine...

    My 1977 7M-GTE CELICA! Finished! Test drive vid on page 18!

    At first, I thought your "list" was missing or something... then I got the joke. Good weekend, and happy hunting! :p Not gonna lie, your car is sweet, but your buddy's car... damn that thing is sexy. Normally I prefer the liftback too! Question is though, how quick is his car? I can imagine...

    Aftermarket bumper that looks good?

    Just going to throw it out there: Front plates are silly. If you REALLY need to see my plate number, get behind me like every other cop that has ever pulled me over. I'm still debating what I will do as far as a front plate goes for the car getting all the widebody bits. Not exactly keen on the...

    MKIII Supra Spoilers?

    No worries then. Just looks similar I guess. I always did like offset scoops on cars with inline engines... makes a lot more sense that way. :p

    BCL GT wings for MKIII interest thread.

    I'm probably going to use your car as a reference point as far as wheel fitment goes. Ideally I'd like 1° at the most in the rear. 2° would be fine for up front for me though. :) Reason being, the roads here aren't exactly a nice clean surface, traction can be its own battle around here...

    60ft's and MKIII rear ends

    Oh, I can certainly appreciate the money and effort that goes into proving a setup and reaching goals man. However, I for one can't afford to continually break things in the pursuit of progress. I would rather build something to handle 1000hp and live with 500hp, than to put my car back together...

    Supra on the Road Course

    Looks like you had some fun out there Dave... I like the guy who was riding shotgun, "wow, it does turn!" :rofl: Seems you got the same opinion from the girl on the side of the track too... I take it they mix up the track layout every now and then? Seems like a versatile track.
