    Trade my Supra for a 1jz Supra?

    Why is he selling the 1J? ALWAYS assume a seller is selling because something is WRONG. Also assume that they are incompetent until proven otherwise! For that much money you could spank the &%$ out of the 1J with your 7M any day of the week...

    Brake booster, vielside intake, 2jz swap clearance issue.

    Man... haven't heard this issue in a LONG LONG time... Form what I can remember (as it's been a few years), you can use a brake booster off the trucks, as it's smaller, but you won't get as much assist. Another option is the hydraulic brake booster (haven't seen anyone do that in a supra)...

    Overheating woes

    Few things: -Ditch the dinky electric fan that probably came off a honda and not a 3.0 turbocharged engine (hint, more power = more heat) -Stock t-stat is 88C = 190F -ALWAYS assume the previous owner sold it because of some issue. Also assume that they where completely incompetent and any...

    No, don't touch an FCD as it's meant to be used with the full HKS tuning suite.

    Anyone watch the new Knight Rider? (spoilers inside!)

    There was a plot? I have to admit, watching any of the original episode is pretty tough for me as they're just THAT bad. When I was younger the show rocked, but now...

    Not needed with an upgraded turbo as fuel cut is still there and any more air it flows will be detected by the AFM...

    Anybody play Combat Arms?

    I swear to god if I get another "abnormal gameplay detected" I'm going to uninstall the game. Have a great game that takes forever (as I play S&D) and I get no GP...

    Buying a budget tire, anyone tried these? (I picked/purchased already, thanks guys)

    I completely disagree. I as well as a lot of my car friends (f-bodies, vette's, ect...) run Kumho's because they are the best performance for the price. Falken's are QUIET, not much else over Kumho besides being more expensive. No, not a tire salesman, but all tires have wear ratings...

    Trade my Supra for a 1jz Supra?

    Correction, good 3E5 > faded and needing paint maroon Not a fair trade by any stretch that I can think of. A/C is probably an easy fix (flush, fix leaks, replace dryer, recharge), as is the power steering (usually the pressure line). Retorque your subframe bolts (makes the car feel a LOT...

    Trade my Supra for a 1jz Supra?

    $3K on top of your supra isn't a fair trade by a long shot... Not even close... Did I mention it's not a fair trade?

    Buying a budget tire, anyone tried these? (I picked/purchased already, thanks guys)

    The Federals have a DISMAL wear rating meaning you'll have to replace them more often (more expensive in the long run). The firehawks have a much better wear rating. They're both V rates (not horribly bad), and looking around you can get both of them for damn cheap and have them mounted...

    Can you do it? Yes. Should you do it? IMHO, no. Replacing a clutch is easier than replacing syncros...
