I didn't bother to search for a thread like this because well....I didn't want to lol. So I have enlisted in the U.S. Navy and begin my career this upcoming April. I've signed my contract for the Nuclear Power Field, and I'm very happy with my decision to join. Hopefully, despite the...

First off if this topic has been discussed to death just delete this thread. Won't bother me. Secondly I have always disliked the idea of putting anything but the 7m, 1jz, or 2jz in our cars but I know plenty of people love the added displacement of a V8. My question is why do guys go for...

Ok just to start this off I did check what codes the car is throwing. Here were my findings. 32- HAC Sensor Signal 51- (This one is probably because the entire AC System was removed by the PO) Possible TPS issue. 52- Knock Sensor Now that we are passed that I'll describe the problem...

My old mk3 currently owned by my buddy(arashi on the board) stomped a fresh off the lot rx8 last night! So here is how it went down guys. Some local rednecks pulled into a parking lot next door and were rev happy in their trucks and then a car of interest pulls up. A 6-speed rx8. Arashi hops...

First I'd like to say I tried searching for the answer on the forum and google and couldn't find a straight forward one. So my cherry has been popped and I have my first 7m-gte bhg. I was going to go with an oem hg and arp studs but does anyone know if its composite or graphite? And which is...

Since I'll be separating with my 88 Supra Turbo soon my next goal is that on my next MKIII Turbo I want to do a 1jz swap. I plan to go with the cheaper TT 1JZ over the VVT-I as much for cost as the fact that I have always wanted a twin turboed car. What is a reasonable and easy power goal for...

I'm not sure if the two are connected but they seem to be. This started a couple weeks ago. I stalled my car out, because no matter how experienced you get on a 5-speed there are those times when it happens. After that all electrical systems to the car were gone. Nothing came on when I turned...

I currently have an 88 Supra Turbo and was considering selling it to my roommate for 3k or 3.5k after I get the AC, heat, and cosmetic issues taken care of. Shouldn't take more than 500 for that stuff. Maybe 7. Well I know a guy here that wants to sell his 92 Supra Turbo and he's asking 5500...

I just got pulled over for a cover over my tag. If I'd been driving a Mini Van or some white sedan the cops wouldn't have given me a moment's notice. I just thought I'd start this thread so we can all share stories of being pulled over almost completely because of the car we drive.

I'm just wondering if anyone else has had the same issue as me and what the problem was. When I'm accelerating hard and then let off suddenly and put the car into neutral the idle drops to almost 200 rpms, barely keeping from dieing. It doesn't always do this so I'm not sure what the problem is.

Since the first moment I got my Supra I've dreamed of one day replacing the single turbo with a TT set up. Does any company make a turbo upgrade kit for that desire?

I have an 88 Supra Turbo that is my DD right now and I am not liking it lol. Uses too much gas and I bought it for a project before a couple idiotic family members took my other car without my permission and blew the engine up in it. How much better is an n/a MK3 on gas and just as a DD all...

Well guys I have been driving around a horribly blown OEM suspension since I purchased my car around 6 months ago. Yesterday and today I got my Tokico blue struts and eibach pro-kit springs respectively. And it was today that my friend and I began the amazing fun of installing it. With a bit of...

So I was told by a friend to save up about 1.5k and go for an entire suspension system replacement. But I asked another friend, who's pretty huge into cars and she said that since my springs aren't cut that I'd be fine with just replacing the struts/shocks. I found these online and at around...

I've only owned it for 5 months or so and I'm no expert on cars but I've fallen in love. The car came with a few upgrades already on it and the engine supposedly on has 50k or less miles on it according to the previous owner. I will say the engine runs strong and I've never had a problem out of...

Hey guys just thought I'd introduce myself to anyone who cares lol. I have been in love with Toyota Supras for a few years now, especially the 93+ models but sadly I don't have 20 grand lol. My first Supra I got 2 months ago and I am proud to say it is a 1988 Toyota Supra Turbo with a 5...
