Fair enough... btw i've admired you car for a while. My 1986.5 is the same color and I love it. I though mine was clean when i bought it then i saw yours and was sad lol
I've found the NA-T faq confusing as to year swaping parts and what will or wont work together just that im gonna have a few complications when trying to use different years ie. 88 and 89+
I have a 1986.5 Supra and a guy in my town has a 1990 7MGTE for sale. I was wondering what all needed to be used to make this swap work. Do I need the square 88 motor mounts or the round ones, should i use a 88 7mgte harness and swap over certain sensors or use a 90 harness and chop the shit out...
Coil-overs sound like they would be the best fit for you. IMHO they last longer, provide better comfort, and perform better than any spring/shock combo your gonna come up with. As well when you lower your car you change almost all of the angles related to steering & suspension, meaning an...
of course im gonna get a DM upgraded oil pump, fresh water pump, koyo radiator, twin electric fans. Plus oil filter relocation kit with oil cooler after filter to engine in front of bumper. So if i went for a more mild build around 500 hp probe would probibly be looking better or just go with...
I just got a new job so i will be able to afford the parts Ive been looking at for a while. My build will take me into the low 600 hp range and hopefully support drifting.
Engine
.020 Probe forged pistons
Eagle H-beam connecting rods
ARP Head/Main/Rod studs
Clevite Rod/Main/Thrust...
I prefer going to exhaust shops and having them just make a straight pipe back with room for a muffle in the back, and the SS one from eBay is 4" it might be louder then you want to expect.
Im sure that you live near a church, football field, or school that has a nice big empty parking lot after hours. Make sure you know who can see you in the lot and how many entrances there are. First time i got caught drifting in a school parking lot i told the cop my tires were bald and i was...
Sick ride, love the color and can't wait to hear more about how the swaps going! Cool to hear your from Poland i have a little bit of family that still live there on my mothers side.
I admire both your old and new cars and can't wait to see/read more about it as it progresses! Do you have any plans for turbo or possibly 2j swap id like to hear 'em. Oh and good luck with the new ride I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
Good to see another supra owner my age getting into the drift scene. Welcome to SM and congratulations on buying a supra! Before you consider drifting with your heavy n/a i want you to realize the less power you have to get you into a drift and keep you in it the more stress you will be putting...
my passenger half shaft hast about an 8th of an inch play in and out of the dif. and the other one the boot ring fell off the boot but it seams still good.
My noise is getting worse ill get some more info and hopefully pics soon after i tear out my drive train and run test on it all because i have a clunk but i dont think mine is as bad. At least i havent payed as much attention to it :/
I got to dyno my supra for the first time and before i left i noticed a noise in first gear when turning, like making a right/left turn from a stop. It sounds like the diff is in lock and the outside wheel is trying to turn at the same speed as the inside. Any clues? Gonna pull the diff. off and...
The headache i was talking about for gte elctronics is the decision of what to do with the extra knock sensor. NA-T, in my opinion, is a waste of money because you are limited by reliabilty of that motor. Simply swapping in the 7mgte pistons, new set is like $130, will allow you to turn up the...
