    BHG'ed, Does $2k Sound Like the Right Price?

    I got raped by my mechanic when I blew my stock HG. Originally he told me it would be about a grand, assuming I got the HG (Titan Motorsports 1.4mm Multi-layer steel for $120 shipped, and great customer service, btw). Anyway, over 7 weeks later, my car was finally done, with a new cyl head...

    Spewing Coolant from TB

    A few things... 1) You guys rock. This stuff might be common knowledge to some of you, but to the rest of us, these little convo's make life a lot easier. So, thanks. 2) I'm deffinately for bypassing the ISC and TB, but I think I'm gonna take her down to my friendly-local-speed-shop and...

    Spewing Coolant from TB

    Ok, a quick update. I pulled the TB off and checked the hoses coming to and going from it. They're fine. After putting everything back together I started her up and took a closer look. I'm still loosing coolant, and quick, but I finally found where it's coming from. It's leaking from...

    Spewing Coolant from TB

    Ok, I'll try to keep this short. I've got an '88 Turbo, and I'm loosing coolant from under the throttle body, I think from the hose that goes down from the TB. I pulled it out, and it looked fine, though the spring clamp wasn't in the right place. So I put the clamp back, and put...

    If he's gonna leave Surpas for anything, the R34 GT-R is probably the best option out there. Those things are amazing... They're probably my second favorite car in the world...

    2007 supra

    Though we differ on the details, frankly, I can't fault you for anything you said there... except that my MkIII could use a bit more power and agility... Born2Drv... Sorry, but that's just a bit too thin for me to believe.

    2007 supra

    Of course I was only counting the Supras that came from the factory with 2JZ-GTE's. Just like I was only counting the V8 Camaros. And I left out all of the swapped and modified cars, as well as all of the 2JZ Soarers. Firstly it's nearly impossible to count all of those, and secondly, it just...

    2007 supra

    Back... As I was saying, the LT1 F-Body is a logical comparison for the MkIV GTE. Sure they're a dime a dozen. But other than price, all of the numbers they made were very similar. The 2ZJ made 320 hp while the LT1 made 300. The 2JZ made a little over 300 torque, the LT1 made about 340...

    2007 supra

    What's wrong with my logic? The 2JZ-GE's are just 3.0L sixes. Nothing spcial about them. If I were gonna count them, why shouldn't I include every car GM every made with the supercharged 3800 S2? And why can't I compare the Supra to the Camaro or F'Bird or Mustang? I agree they're a...

    2007 supra

    I've read a bit of this thread, and frankly, it's like every other "New Supra" thread I've read over the years. Full of dreams, but with no real substance. I don't want to sound rude, cuz we'd all love a new supra, but it just won't happen. So there are new "spy" shots out. So a few...

    How Many Daily Drivers?

    My 88T is my daily driver, though I haven't had the money to mod it yet. As soon as I get the money though, that'll change. I eventually want about 500 or 550 horses to the ground. It's also my only car, but that will have to change pretty soon. A turbo RWD on performance tires is a recipe...

    Short Shifter?

    I'm looking for a good quality aftermarket short shifter for my r154 turbo '88. I've seen a few on eBay, but I'm not sure if I should trust them. I also know a lot of guys just pull out their stocker and cut it short, but I'd like to put a new one in if possible. Does anyone know who makes a...

    Steering Wheel Swap

    Does anyone know right off hand if you can swap a steering wheel and cruise control controls from a post-89 car into an 88 without any problems? I love the feel of my 88 wheel, but the post-89's just look so much better...

    Where can I get this?

    This is a pic from one of the builds I saw somewhere on this forum, but I lost the link to that thread and can't find it again. The intake man on this build is gorgeous and really cleans up the engine bay. Does anyone know who makes it and where I can get one? PS - To whoever owns this...
