Got an e-mail today from the new owners of SupraSport. Any one have information on them? I hope we can continue to have our meets there.

Just found this up on the other forum. He does come over here occasionally. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWt_F9v9c88&feature=youtu.be

Hello All, I have a 2jz in my MKIII. Last summer I had some issues with cooling. Not huge problems, she didn't over heat but got warm on several occasions. I have a new Moshimoto radiator, the engine was cleaned well when we had her apart, my thermostat is new Toyota. I also have the Adrenaline...

I hope this post is in the correct area, if not please move to proper area. Today my wife Lucia and I had the pleasure or meeting Soruko (Luis) in SW Puerto Rico. We have been here all week escaping the frigid Minnesota weather. Even though we got a bit of rain today we had a great time...

Evening Gents, funky_monkey58 and I went to the track at Brainerd tonight. We almost didn't go because their rules for battery placement were a problem. Nevertheless we went and passed inspection. I was surprised at how many were running tonight. My car ran well. If the driver ran as good...

Tonight, I dropped off my daughter's ailing Nissan Maxima at my mechanic friends house. We took the highway back so I could get a few pulls in. We are planning on heading to the track tomorrow night at Brainerd. I just wanted to do a few pulls in the cool night air. I was at a stop light when...

Tonight I was giving my nephew Aaron a ride in my 87. He's ridden in it before but not since Sean aka funky_monkey58 and I got her up and running after the 2JZ swap and tuning. We warmed her up, then took her out on the highway. I did one pretty hard pull and then hit a red light. This section...

Last night my wife and I went out to eat. Later it was such a nice night we cruised the main drag, Division Street. Lot's of guys out with their cars. I don't drive my car that much and never have had a real race since my engine swap. Have had a few off the line minor encounters but never able...

Hello All, Not sure if any one is interested but we tried again today. Our power goals were 550 rwhp on lowest boost. We easily obtained that: 550 rwhp, 515 TQ at 22 lbs. boost. We were able to surpass my earlier attempt that resulted in 440 rwhp at 18lbs, and a blown front main seal. On...

Hello All, I picked up the Supra from the body man today. It cost more than I thought to put in the turbo-a-duct, paint bumpers, take care of a few scrapes and to cut out several inner fender areas of rust. Yes, rust. This car has never seen snow or even come close to driving in the winter...

My nephew Sean (funky_monkey58) and I are close to firing up the 2JZ. This is Casio's old set up. It has been a crazy busy summer with Sean and I involved in Truax Motorsports, plus working full time jobs and so we havn't had as much time as we would have liked to, to work on her. We are...

I hope this is the proper place to make this review if not please move to appropriate section. Jtamulis Product Review: JT56Lightning Specs: I ordered the JT56Lightning with the P-Trim exhaust housing (56mm Compressor, P-Trim Exhaust) Cost: $1250 + Lines, +shipping. All I can...

My friend who is putting my car back together called today. He wasn't the one who took it apart when the head and turbo were updated. Even though he has the factory service manual, has questions about where some of the vacuum lines go. If any one has a clear photo, web site or has a way he can...

I hope it is OK to post this here. If it is in the wrong spot please feel free to move it to correct section. Today I drove to Stillwater and met Jack of SupraSport. I needed a new gasket for my Lipp turbo elbow. I have been in many machine shops before and I can say the place was very...

Good Evening Guys, I want to run a 180 thermostat in my car. I have read others here do. Does anyone know the Toyota, Napa, or other part #. I tried tonight and the guy seemed pretty helpless, not knowing where or how to cross reference it. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Dan

Guys, tomorrow I am taking my intercooler pipes in to be powder coated along with a few other under hood items. Is there any reason why I shouldn't get the afm housing done as well? I would remove the screen, custom screw and the electronics, and have it taped so inside would not be coated...

My buddy and I will be installing my Aeromotive FPR this weekend. How much pressure should we set her at to begin with? I am mechanically challenged so any help or input appreciated. My mod list is below. Right now I have a bad exhaust manifold leak that is going to be delt with this trip to the...

Hello All, I have an exhaust leak in area of exhaust manifold on my 87 Turbo. I first noticed it last fall, now it is louder. According to my search, cracks happen occassionaly but gaskets leaks are more common. We just pulled her out of the garage after a long Minnesota winter and I am...

Hello Guys, I am in the process of continuing to upgrade my 87 Turbo. The leather seats are pretty much shot. I have taken them to several upholster shops, the news is not good, expensive and they are running al least 2-3 months out. I don't want to wait that long. How many have racing...
