OK. I live in Richmond, VA and my 2JZ-swapped Supra needs a proper tune on her to run correctly, cause right now she's burning thru gas (and oil!) at a fast rate. Is there anyone in this area that can help me sort out my engine? Props to Seth Ingham (sethron71) for building and installing my...
After my 2JZ engine swap we hooked up an adapeter piece (just a sleeve) into the tranny and had my speedo/odo back and working. But as long as I've had my Supra I've had a squeel behind the dash where the speedo cable connects to the gauge, and ironically after a few more miles with it working...
Someone almost beat Christof for the ugliest Supra ever, and you can buy it in Manassas, VA for only $9K!

And somewhere, off in Japan, another valued Japanese technician commits seppuku after merely glimpsing an abomination like...
This is more of a curiosity question than anything serious. I just got done with my 7M swapout to a 2J, and now when I start her up the radiator "birdacge" light comes on for awhile, then flickers periodically and goes away after several miles. Some background info...
1: Had the light before...
After my 2JZ swap we (Seth and I) found we had trouble bleeding out the air in the system for PS, and now the pump gets loud underneath the hood. I suspect a rebuild or replacement is in order and have found gasket kits out on the net to do this, but I've also heard about swapping in an electric...
I'm thinking I might do something interesting with my cargo cover (or luggage, trunk, or "boot" cover, whatever you wanna call it), but it involves taking it apart. Anyone ever attempt to do this?
Just curious...
Anyone with a 2JZ running a clear or CF cam cover on theirs? I want mine covered up while still keeping the custom stainless valve cover piece on top of the motor, and I'd like to see what others are doing to cover up their timing belts and cams in the front. I was thinking about going either...
Okay, as some of you know, Seth (sethron71) and I have been working on finishing up my 2JZ swap, and I was doing some research on the Aristo VVTI motor I'm putting in. Since the wiring harness was cut off, the OBD2 port was deleted from the wiring harness when the motor was shipped. I did some...
For those that have shipped a 7M before, what is the average weight of that engine including transmission and intercooler? I have no clue and am getting asked this question now as I have offered to ship mine away if the seller covers the cost.
Found this on CelicaSupra.com and felt it needed to be posted here as well. It may need to be moved to another section of this forum, not sure if it should be here.
Talk about vintage goodness!!!

Okay. my 7M is pulled out and we will be preparing to drop in a 2JZ (automatic to automatic). These are the current options I have questions about...
1: Overdrive button on Automatic Transmission Lever.
2: ECT power button.
3: TEMS system.
I am assuming the TEMS system will still work...
I will be purchasing a 2JZ-GTE from either Driftmotion or JDM Source here relatively soon and I need to know what shops local to Richmond VA can handle this, properly, neatly, and CORRECTLY. I am not opposed to driving to Virginia Beach if necessary, but I will need to know who would be a...
I've been getting a little pissed off with my Supra lately (follow my build and you'll see why!), so I went back to my other hobby, which is model car building. I picked up the MPC Toyota Supra MKII kit from fleaBay and just completed it. Here's the pix....
The kit is...
I had my water pump fail on me and dump coolant all over the place, so I ordered a new pump along with all new belts to put in from Driftmotion. When D7M and I started into my engine bay to replace everything, we had already noticed that aside from the fluid that had gunked all over the pump and...
Ok. The car started to overheat wickedly as I was driving home this afternoon, so I got her off the road and turned her off quick. After she cooled I got under the hood with Don (D7M) and we noticed that the front of the engine behind the cam cover was soaking wet with coolant and the radiator...
I just went through removing most of the rear hatch trim to get to my rear shock towers in swapping out my worn shocks/coils with Tokicos and Eibachs, and now I'm looking at the interior and wondering if I want to put that stuff back in. I know it's mostly for looks, but really all I want to put...
Ok. For awhile now I have seen this blessed kit for sale on various websites and on Fleabay, and it's gotten me completely flummoxed. I have also seen other kits like the Autobody Mad Max Interceptor kit and now a Jeep Cherokee model kit for sale, and I have not bought any of them yet because I...
I've got a bunch of know-it-all jack-apes on another forum that are giving me grief about a pic on their forum. They couldn't identify their asses with a flashlight-armed cattleprod.
The car is in white, with an MKIV pic for comparison.
I've already told them that this was a Supra with...
