Current Challenge (5/20/05): Fully built MK3 on Trial Mtn Forward. 1JZ or 7M

Do you have a hint of purple in your paint? I love that shade, but it doesn't quite look like mine or the car from mk3supras.com Amethyst Silver metallic 920

http://www.timandgail.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/mk3supras/exterior_colours.htm Quite a few colors are missing. Amethyst Silver metallic being one of them ;)

I believe your year of cressida can use the aftermarket LSD's intended for the mk3. If so, you've got a lot of otions: ATS deftforce 1.5- or 2-way ATS Metal and Carbon 1.5- or 2-way Cusco MZ 1, 1.5, or 2-way Cusco RS 1, 1.5, or 2-way Kaaz 2-way All are available through HPF ;)

I've blown one r154 at the dragstrip on a hard 1-2 shift. Lost all but 3rd gear. I never had it rebuild, but I did take it apart and found a small broken chrome ring :wtf: I'm currently on another used r154 (the first came from a parts car when i converted to 5spd from auto) and this one...

2.2-2.0 on street tires is good with the mk3. On DR's 1.8-2.0

Heh, I bow down to him. It's possible with an automatic, just a lot of extra work (especially with an NA!). An open diff is something I personally can't drift for long in the dry -- so that's where my's hats really off to him

You have an open diff?! Very impressive, and with an automatic no less. Are you still on the 7m-ge too? Good driving, looks like a beast to handle

Not a bad time for a nearly stock car. An intake alone doesn't really add much power, but after adding a full exhaust and boost controller it'll really make a difference. As for stock times, the fastest I'm aware of is ~14.9@97. You are trapping quite a bit lower than that, so you 15.1 is...

No more negative reputation left to give :( Somehow I picture Simann as a 48 year old laughing his ass off at all the controversy he stirs up by posting known fact as fiction

14.7:1 is stoch, that's what is textbook "ideal" at idle. 14.5 is fine. You should go full lean when you let off the gas. If you are in gear, the engine will stop supplying fuel to the engine until it gets to a certain rpm (feels like ~ 1000rpm to me, but thats just a guess). That means...

nope, I don't see a forum there?

hell since we're off topic -- nice to see ya on again shawndude. Why can't I PM you?

(don't forget freight $$ for the 2 engines you'd want to take to the other side of the globe)

might have to take my poor supra to maaco. Looks pretty good

The only engine that does not apply to is the rotory

Yes. From the numbers in the quote, the engine would have grown from 3.735 to 3.972 liters. Yes, but not increasing displacement. A "stroked" engine has a longer stroke than its predecessor, so no, the new engine would be called "overbored." BORE = the diameter of the cylinder...

Changing the Deck height alone, would do nothing for displacement, it would only alter the compression ratio (assuming all else is equal). To increase the displacement, you need any one of the three: larger bore larger stroke more cylinders (PS: the magazine quote you included...

I'd heard they went out of business, but the site is still up?
