Can you guys go over to supraforums and read my post in the off-topic section for me? Your knowledge will be greatly appreciated on this matter :). I posted over there for traffic reasons. Thanks guys! -Ken

Omg, yes, Dan Matoba's car. I forgot about that 1jz car. That was probably THEE cleanest MkIII ever. And what was name? Mike Urbano from the west coast, as well. Dark blue 1jz with a full bomex kit, jdm fender flares, volk rims...etc. I liked that car. Alot of you west coast guys got some nice cars.

CPT Furious - You have one hell of a clean MkIII. Don't change a thing. :)

What inspired me? The first mkiii I've ever seen was about 5-6 years ago, which was owned by my friend Dean. I thought it was a hot looking car, but didn't know it was classified as a "fast" car and payed no attention to it. So, a little while later, he takes off and starts going down [5] [15]...

perfect example of post-whoring :D

whatever is in the league of a stock mustang, i guess. that said, leave the late-model probes alone, lol!

^ Definately. For my next mkiii, I plan on going ballz out with it. This is why I'am looking into everything now. I'am just going to start drilling holes in everything, lol. j/k

Yeah, unless you're an old man and you happen to be going through a mid-life crisis, don't remove it (I couldn't resist :D). Worried about parasitic loss? Cut the belt, buy a new one when you want to use it again. Or, you could buy an n/a mkiii, keep the a/c, and use it as a daily driver...

Lol. Yeah, 50lbs of savings wouldn't be worth it, but then again, chevyeater brings up some good ideas. Chassis lightening is also something I think about. Only thing we can do is lighten the sub-frames, I guess, since we're uni-body. Besides a complete carbon-fibre shell, I don't know...

Great stories! I first experienced boost in the passenger seat of a 450rwhp t-61 mkiii ala "supradean", a few years back, 99'- 2000' or so. This fool decides not to warn me, and I nearly get whiplash from how freaking hard this thing pulled. Sideways up through 5th. My words were also "OH SHIT!"

I third not caring about the stereo.

lol. I learned how to drive standard on a piece of crap late 80's s-10, I was 15. I was also high on the ganja while trying to do this (yes I quit that crap, I'm 21 and quit for good when i was 17). Anyways, my only problem was that I had a hard time letting off of the gas between shifts. Taking...

i must be a f***ing idiot or don't know some kind of secret language. what car are we talking about here? "turbo hatch" doesn't do it for me. edit: nevermind, i don't know how i missed the big "HONDA".

Not sure, but I don't think so. The tems is useless anyway...

Where the hell are you new guys finding all these 92's!!!! Alot of us would kill for one. Oh yeah, Welcome to the brady bunch!

Interesting. Yeah, 'cause I was wondering...well what about the LS1? It's good for abut 550hp untill you need to start doing internals. If somebody ( with ample funds ) will bite-the-bullet and be a test subject, that would be great. I would, but I can't afford it right now. In the future...

Thanks guys! Oh well, it sounded good.

I don't know what it takes or even how to go about building a custom block, but has anybody ever thought about this or have the means and know how? What could be the pros and cons? I guess this could be good for weight savings, but I can't think of anything else. What do you guys think? Good...

It will work if this exhaust is built for an mkiii supra. If not you have to cut, re-shape and re-weld the piping to get it to fit. The 3" piping will be fine, but don't go any higher with an n/a.
