Visited my body guy today to see the progress. Getting closer to the paint booth! Does anyone know if front turn lights and the rears are still available new? Finally back on the road with a fresh coat of Supra Silver!

The local performance shop near the house was having a Modern Mopar dyno day so I stopped in and hung around checking out the late model Challengers, Chargers, 300's magnums, etc. getting their Dyno on. Out of the 20 or so cars, one really tricked out Challenger pulled a 800, then one pulled a...

does anyone know what the actual size of the the high side A/C fitting is so I can get the correct adapter to fit my R12 hoses?

I'm going to the drag boat races tomorrow at Lake Marble Falls in TX and just found out that one of the top drivers wont be there.... He died last week in a crash in Tulsa. This guy was one of the ultimate "I want to go fast guys". Most people have seen top fuel dragsters and for those who...

My firend blew his tranny at the Texas meet and is having a hard time finding one in the salvage yards around Houston. Does anyone know what other cars besides the Supra came with the R154 that can be used? I searched and looked at all titles with "R154" and could not find the answer...

Here's one for the WTF trouble shooting database. I have an 04 tahoe that I bought used about 4 years a go. It came with a iPod connection that I have used the entire time. Driving home from work the other day the Hoe shuts down... no power won't crank... I find a 40 amp fuse blown under the...

I currently have a web site, xtremetexascookers.com that I built with the web hosting company online web builder tool. It has worked well for us but I would like to improve the site beyond the limitations of the canned sitebuilder program. I am going to purchase Web Design software and...

I was bored and just wondering how my plugs were looking since I have not checked them in a while. So I pulled out number one and this is what I found.. These plugs have been in the car since the build over a year a go, a blown turbo, and still seems to be peforming well. I have been...

I currently have my manual boost controller set to max out 1.3 bar while pulling hard between 2nd thru 4th gears. When I accelerate at higher cruising speeds the boost jumps up to 1.45, the warning light on my boost gauge goes off and I back off immediately. Boost creep? While I am in the...

Check out what my son bought me for Christmas! Its a Rockford Fosgate low profile sub that fits perfectly under the targa mounts..... I should be getting it hooked up today... And yes, for heavens sake... Why didn't I vacum before I took the shot...

Just got back taking a joy ride in the 91t 5 speed and had some fun with a late model 911 carrera. It is a cool 37f here in Houston and the Supra was running crisp... I pulled up next to what I thought was a late model Boxster at a stop light and was thinking easy kill.... We took off and I ran...

I've been told that the 680's will work with ok the 550 chip in the VPC. Does anyone else have experience with this set-up?

I have a HKS manifold as seen in this post... http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=80380&highlight=wastegate What model WG will fit on this flange?

I dyno tested my 91 T two weeks ago at ARD, on a Dynojet, in Houston. There was a small Supra meet that was organized by someone on SF I think. Since I lived right down the street I thought I would go ahead and see what my newly built 7m would pull.... 1st pull was 274 and the second hit...

Has anyone ever built or seen a mud buggy, sand rail, or any other 1j, 2j, 7m powered off road vehicle? Maybe a jeep? The concept of using one of these power plants peaked the interest of my mechanic friend that has fabricated other off road vehicles. If nothing else it would be different...

Now that I've got my 91T 5 speed on the road, I've pulled the engine out of the wife's 91 auto and going to build the low end the same as mine with JE/ Eagle set up for future high boost fun. I want to have the tranny built to be able to handle 4-500hp. I've NEVER had good luck with...

I was able to find the stock head height via search, 116mm. But I could not find the stock piston deck height for a 7m. (although I know it's out there) thanks in advance

I live in West Houston, only about 20 minutes from the track, I thought I would start a thread to help answer questions or provide some helpful tips how to navigate around and through Houston. Good places to eat, how to avoid the traffic, etc. Traffic for example, if you will be coming into...

Check this out! I was sitting here lurking SM and was watchng the Pats and Chargers after game celebration. Along come this TV commercial and something catches my attention. So I hit the DVR reverse and saw what I thought I saw. It looks like the cashier taking the Citi Card is missing a...

I purchased MKIV motor mounts for my 91 and know that I need to grind off the lower nipple. But regarding the top, the threaded stud on the MKIV mount is shorter than the stock MKIII. The only way to get enough thread through the nut is to leave off the solid black bracket, heat sheild, and...
