    Project 88 MKIII - A Calgary build

    I really enjoy reading this build, I thought about going this route until I seen how much it's costed you.. and I think I'd buy myself a maserati gran sport before this =p but I agree the intercooler's off DM should come with an instruction manual. I bought mine for a jdm 1jz and for some reason...

    Hello everyone :)

    thats about all you need some 550's and the maf and your boost cut issue should be gone. the stock injectors aren't good past 12.5 psi and most boost controllers creep up so if you try to run 10 you can still hit fuelcut. 7ms quite a bit different from my 1jz but best i can get is 440s but I'm...

    The infamous 1jz breakup: tried alot, getting no where

    if your hitting boost cut at 10 lbs its prolly spiking over 12.5 lbs. is it an EBC or MBC? I'd just double check theirs no leaks in the vacuum system and the reason some of your wires are cut is because the ecu is for another car.

    I use to do autobody, took it in and school became a 1st year.. swithced to electrical better pay and better health. but imo the bodywork is fine at home, paint in a shop. the different between a sterile clean paintbooth and proper airflow/ventilation is night and day to a backyard job. you see...

    W58 Clutch worn down or bad clutch slave cylinder?

    I had a problem with holding my clutch in and it would creep out on its own and stall out at lights. I swapped out the master cylinder and it fixed the problem. My clutch is set to engage at the end of the pedal though, I prefer it that way.

    Project Great White

    yeah do it up, I liked the black rims better then the mk4, i know some people like the polished up 'stock' look but I think a deep dish makes a car look so much meaner. Mine are currently suffering curb rash from a combination of the previous owner and a stupid A&W drive through with a 2 foot...

    Question on TTR interior

    I own a true tt-r from japan and it only came with momo steering wheel and recaro buckets. On a side note: I've upgraded my pedals to momo and bought a trd shift knob and recaro boot. It looks real fancy now haha. I should get to posting a build thread soon I suppose

    1UZ Swap: Basic Obstacles and Overview

    I really like the idea of this and have been reading alot. I;ve been in a toss up of selling my jdm supra for a proper lexus sc400 with a 5 speed. But I've sunk too much into my supra to part with her now. although if my 1jz ever failed me I;'d like to know if my turbos are compatible with the...

    1JZ Swap into a 1987.......Mitsubishi Starion

    thats crazy always thought of doing something custom like this in a light car but too much fabrication for me. but I respect all the effort it takes to do these projects. I wish I was this mechanically inclined. i get pissed off just having to deal with old seized bolts and replacing basic shit...

    I dont have a phone so I haven't been able to take pictures but i'll get some once it's complete, I got a nice new interior and upgraded turbo/cooling system. it still looks fairly stock but it makes alot more hp especially having 2 upgraded turbos not 1 stock one making 3lbs of boost while the...

    ma-70 carbon fiber twill weave & plain weave parts.

    I know seems like every carbon fibre guy leaves as soon as they come, I was on 6 months ago trying to buy every carbon fibre part that was available privately and the only one I could get was the cowl by the wipers which seemed useless without the rest of what I wanted. Now I seen some other guy...

    Auto 1JZGTE Driveshaft Options

    I wish I could find a carbon fibre one for a 1jz manual in canada, I think I'm just gunna get a alluminum one made up at a local shop. but an sc/supra/arristo/soarer as long as they use the same auto tranny any drive shaft should be fine for comparison.

    The Mistress

    your mistress sir, is a mean 'lil slut! nice recaros btw, I just had my factory ones refurbished and added red stitching, but it's definately not the same as brand new ones.

    ma-70 carbon fiber twill weave & plain weave parts.

    I`m interested in some smaller things that would probably be more popular, specifically the middle piece of the rear 3 piece spoiler (89+ supras) and the front lipp spoiler. Also headlight covers (bc having a carbon fibre hood but your headlights pop up red just doesn`t cut it) but fitment seems...

    Whos has a Carbon Fibre Hood on their MKIII and are you using hood pins?

    haha mine has a huge bow on the drivers side (right hand drive though) and yeah I don`t like topping her out it definately feels with the lip on the side sticking up its just one big gust away from going down the highway behind me.

    Project Great White

    I still think you should of gone with gold/bronze rims on that white car =p but I like all the updates, good to hear you saved your motor too, nobody likes to have to scrape their work. I went to 1jz instead of doing my burgandy 7m up but it was a auto and swapping in the manual tranny wasn't...
