Been a while with no activity in here, getting the car prepped for paint took more time than i expected... But its better to use more time and get it 100% than throw it all together... But finally the car is black :biglaugh: Now the fun part finally can start, lots of new...

Time for the boring part... Rust repair:: angry :: The door and aswell the back of the rear was rusted all the way through, so i cut out more than nessecary and welded in new plates. The car underneath is 100% rust free so im glad this is all i found.. I...

I am also working on the brakes wich will be rebuilt stock once for now, until i can afford a big brake kit... They all worked and were in good condition, but i decided i wanted to sandblast the calipers and paint them grey so they look brand new. That includes all new gaskets and such...

Technically it will be a JZA70, JZ Engine + A70 Chassis :biglaugh: Anyways, sorted the diff out a couple of days ago. I installed the Weir performance stage 1 upgrade wich uncludes a second spring for LSD clutch plate preload, and shims to adjust correct backlash on spider and side gears...

We started off by stripping the car down, it will be painted in Black 202 Toyota paint. I am a certified mechanic and work at a Toyota Dealer so i have access to many advantages. :icon_razz I can write up a list of parts that will be installed in the car. BC Racing coilovers Koyo...

First of all, my name is Roy and i am located west in Norway, tought i should get around and start using this forum for once :icon_bigg I ave recently started rebuilding my 87 Hardtop MA70 Supra. I bought this car back in the summer of 2012 and have had it off the road since winter 2013...

Hmm, from what i can see from the picture i posted it looks like i might need a test pipe to make the exhaust complete..

Yeah im prepared for that, but do the downpipe connect to the catback system without the testpipe ?

Just saw this picture Are you sure i dont need a test pipe like this to make the exhaust complete ? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-Supra-MK3-Non-Turbo-7MGTE-7M-GE-Cat-Delete-Stainless-Steel-Testpipe-/170851795532?pt=Race_Car_Parts&hash=item27c78f824c&vxp=mtr

Already have a Profec B, FCD and Wideband installed + some minor mods, so i think it should be ok. Have been running a 2.5" with a 7M before and just recently got the 1J swap done.

Thanks, i thought so :) Now lets hope the quality is not to bad...

Planning on buying a complete exhaust for my 1j swapped MK3 with stock twins.. I have been looking at these two systems, and was wondering if they are making a complete system together or if i have to order a cat delete pipe or anything ? Heres te links to the exhausts...

Since the consumption is as big as it is, its either the turbo or the seals. There is no leak under the car, its all coming out of the exhaust. Oil pressure and temp is also good, tbh the engine itself is in a pretty good condition except for the oil consumption. Compression test was great and...

I had written quite a text here for you guys but i managed to delete it all, so heres a short summary. Checked top of pistons and they where oil free, also checked intake and pressure pipe for turbo wich unvealed that the compressor wheel on the turbo had some damage on the blade. It also had...

Certainly will, thanks for the help ! I think the PCV System is working like it should, car idles great and doesnt go rough in any way. Also cant see any piping that looks like is leaking or plugged up. Will do these tests tomorrow and give a update :) Also from what i can remember i noticed...

Wow thanks for the replys :) To answer some questions i have taken off the pressure pipe coming of the turbo, and there is a layer of oil inside it. Not sure if its like that all the way to the intercooler, but probably is... I gonna do a compression test and also check the sylinder and see if...

Basically i have a 87 7MGTE that loves to eat my oil as much as going fast. It uses probably around a 1 Quart pr 300 Miles... This can vary a lot depending on if i do any pulls or not. I figured out it either have to be the Valve seals or the Turbo, pretty sure piston rings are good. Its said...

The 2.5 exhaust is home made, pretty much no restrictions and as straight as i could get it :)

For some people this might be a stupid question, but i gonna ask it anyway :naughty: Recently i`ve been lurking around here trying to find people with the same setup that i`ve got, and maybe get an idea on what power i am looking at atm.. Well here is the "Specs" Stock CT26 Greddy...

Happy owner of a Hardtop Manual !
