Remembering the 2:1 ratio for crank degrees of course ;)

Pull #1 plug grab a piece of small diameter fuel hose that's a loose fit in the plug hole,(about a foot long) turn the crank and watch the hose rise making note of where it stops and and just before it starts back down this is TDC then compare the notch on the balancer.

The outer ring on the balancer may have slipped giving you a false TDC.

UT7: Yeah I know but there are many different wheel diameters available for the 04 series turbos and the housing needs to match the wheel.

Did you order the correct one for the wheel size you have?

o p and q refer to what size wheel they match up to.

Welcome and look out for that Ken guy he'll lead you astray! ;)

In 99 I was rear ended by a Holden Commodore (a few 100 KG's lighter than a Mk3) Like Nick my car had a couple of scratches and it peeled one of the Pinstripes off the rear bumper as the tow bar took the brunt of the impact. The Commodore was trashed! I was approaching a set of lights and...

If it's Stenno in Australia things may be a little different for a LHD car as your firewall is a different shape due to the AirCon. I agree with Mobes gearing will be a real issue as well unless you can find some low G series gears to use.

LMAO at this point in time we both have 2 nice no HP cars ;)! I'm not sure what form they used for the XS if a Garrett turbine housing will bolt on or not, as Jake said give em a call and see if they can recommend a supplier! Hit SuprraGrl up I know she's swapped out her Housing just not...

Once you get over 9mm lift or so the Cam can dislodge the Shim causing mucho damage and heartbreak.

My thoughts exactly on this! While it may never be a high HP setup if it's reliable at the 400 mark it would be a killer deal.

Uppers are non replacable as far as I know you have to go genuine and buy the complete A Arm as they're one piece. Joel is correct though there are minimal loads on the uppers so they don't really wear out. Lowers are an easy fix :) (Only thing on our cars that is so they must have had a...

:biglaugh: <Cracking up here badly> Can barely type!

CK: I love how clean everything is and the progress is cool and I've seen you in pics with chicks and all but are you sure you're NOT Gay? ;) (white sneakers and this clean obsession) <jk>

Syst: What you propose will no longer be a Mk3 or even a Supra it'll just be a silhouette :( May as well buy a Kit Car and use your Motor in it and at least get something that's been partially engineered as building a Chassis is not a home project unless you have a really well equipped shop...

$262 is a bargain MP! We don't have the quantity of Supras here for anyone to offer rebuilt parts of the shelf so all rebuilds are on your existing core therefore pricey! (Here you mention "Supra" and the price triples instantly)

As odd as it seems the minivan shape is pretty good areodynamically!

Single stupidest thing I've seen done to a Supra......:nono:

Usually during a cold start there's some bearing to crank contact until the oil pressure comes up, it's during this time the Crank if it's not hard can scuff which in turn damages the bearing which opens up the clearance making it take longer to get pressure and so on over and over until it gets...
