    Anyone out there east of quebec?

    There was some guy with a crazy JZ setup in a Mk2 chassis... he might frequent Celica-Supra.com more than here, though.

    Name of mk3 supra font

    One of the benefits of being a computer geek. If something just isn't available, MAKE it. :) I've actually been considering rebuilding the Mk4 font too, just because the only font I've found for it is commercial, and costs money. This annoys me.

    oil in timing belt case

    What Poodles said, plus one more. There's a gasket between the rear timing cover and the block itself. There are also a couple plugs that connect to high pressure oil galleries IIRC, any one of those missing would make for mayhem on a large scale.

    would a garrett gt28 turbo be too small for my na-t conversion?

    As I recall, Randy at BICPerformance put TWO of those on a 1J - so, an engine with .5 Litres less in the way of displacement. And he didn't even keep that setup for long, now he's running a single again - not that this says much, his car is essentially the shop vehicle, he changes his setup...

    7mgte raising compression questions?

    I suspect that it depends on your goals, as usual. If you want stock power levels with better turbo response, then, well... maybe. If you want more power, like most, there are better ways.

    Going to be in Pittsburg / Detroit beginning of April...

    Headed out for a week, couple days in Pittsburg, then a couple more in Detroit. Field trip for work, so they are footing the bill. :) Anyone around there want to grab a bite to eat and tell tall tales one evening?

    Boost leak with no check engine?

    I'll say this: I have yet to check for boost leaks on a car and NOT find one. Well, except after I've fixed them all, of course. I think EVERY Supra has at least a couple after 20 years on the road.

    Boost leak with no check engine?

    Check your codes again, see if they've all gone away. I'd suggest pressure testing the intake system to find boost leaks, it's WAY easier than pulling bits off to inspect using the Mk1 Eyeball. Smoke machine sure makes this easy...

    What cars Do i have avaliable to me?

    Doesn't come in a manual transmission. :( Furthermore, the automatic that it comes with is expensive AND fragile. Might be a bit out of your pricerange, depends on what's available in your area, but there is a Mazdaspeed 6 available that's turbo and AWD. They '06 value listed on carpoint is...

    13 year old DAD !!!~

    Pretty crazy, but not the worst I've seen. While attending a buddy's wedding, I ran into a 25 year old gal who brought her granddaughter to the reception. Newborn, mind you, but still, do the math. Remember to subtract 18 months of gestation. My friends thought my eyebrows were going to...

    F.e.a.r 2

    Ok, this was an enjoyable game except for one problem. It's SHORT. Not 'The cake is a lie' short, but close - I'm done. Probably took me ~10 hours total - I only installed it on Friday, after work and before we headed out to watch a film - and it's not even the end of the weekend, and I'm done.

    F.e.a.r 2

    I'm really quite enjoying it. I'm quite a few hours into it already. The invisible dudes are annoying.

    That's freaking awesome. I'm waiting for the day someone does that to a CAR.

    obxr intake manafold?

    If you're really interested, call Robert at 935 and ask about it. He'll rattle their cage until they offer up a photo, I'm sure.

    obxr intake manafold?

    It's probably the twin turbo one for the 7M. 935 has it listed with a picture: https://935motorsports.com/catalog/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=77&products_id=1036&osCsid=2f0bbb62fa2f90981f83cdd52ad32ce4

    treadstone performance manifold?

    Interesting. I didn't spot page 2... That looks like a direct clone of the old HKS short runner, and that's a damn fine price for it, too. Somebody should buy one and try it out! :D

    treadstone performance manifold?

    The reason we asked for a link is because the only ones that show on the Treadstone site are for the 2J engine, not the 7M that comes in our car. But IJ is right, that was still funny.

    V8 Supras

    I've stuck with similar manufacturers just because it usually bolts up, and I suck at fabrication.
