Mine did that as well, but I don't know if it's the FPR's fault. I also thought that the fuel pump was supposed to have a check valve that held pressure? Hopefully someone will chime in that knows for sure.

JJ, why must you always throw such radical, extremist viewpoints out on the table??

It was good to see you too, man. Lemme know if that MR2 vac booster works out. Better yet, post a pic in your build. I can't wait either, but unfortunately, I have to. Didn't do much to the car today, just installed the -6 fuel feed hard line adapter from Driftmotion. It doesn't sit down as...

Yeah, but...there's no intercooler. or bov. I'm guessing that's why it's cheaper?

Yes, that's normal. More importantly- What the hell happened to the deck of that block?? Did they salvage that motor from the Titanic?

Looks good to me. You have a pic of the crank snout?

I just re-read this thread, and i didn't see it mentioned: If you're using this car for the track, are you still running the ac system? Road racing is a higher than normal heat load of course, and maybe it would help you to remove the ac condenser from the airflow path.

True. Ive found that if you do something half-assed, it always sticks in your head, every time you drive the car, Wether you can see it or not.

Nice pics! I enjoyed being there. Maybe next meet, i'll actually have the Supra there.

hmm..... i likey. I might really have to go this route. Get me some 80's two tone goodness.

Yeah, I know you're right. At this point, I hope to have the engine/tranny in by end of month. What I have left is fuel pump and relay mod, both fuel lines to the fpr, intercooler kit, turbo install, and exhaust. Maybe it'll be running by June. Then on to stage 3- exterior.

That coolant tube under the intake manifold goes to the iscv. Then another one leaves the iscv and goes to the throttle body. Then another one leaves the throttle body, and goes the the small pipe at the end of the wrap-around coolant pipe, under the egr valve. ps- the motor's looking good...

Very nice!

Today I ignored the MR2, and played with the Supra again. Stripped the bay, then painted it and reassembled.

Thanks for doing that, AS! It's not bad at all, but I'm thinking that black is too dark for the lower half, so my current plan is meteor gray lower, light silver upper.

I'm tired. So, after talking with 1986.5supra_kid for quite awhile and showing him what I was doing to my car, I started realizing why it's taking so long to finish my project. I keep diving into useless detail. Plus, it kinda sucked to not have a Supra to bring to sunday's supra meet, lol. And...

LOL I kinda figured that. Sounds good. I expect your next update to be - "shopping for new tires today."

LOL! That's how you know it's a MkIII supra meet- NO mkIII owner has a working mkIII !!! Actually there were only two mkIII's at this meet(it was mainly an 82-85 celica/supra meet), and they had left before the photo op. Mine is the black MR2.

So...once your tires were warm....what was your 1/4 mile time?

Today i talked about my Supra a little bit, but mostly about my MR2, at the Celica Supra meet.
