    10mm or .40

    So I'm searching for a conceal carry gun as my s&w 659 is just a lil to large to conceal easily since I'm not the biggest guy (6' 140lbs, my metabolism eats me out of pocket) And also a fun gun since I'm not rich enough to have the amount id like. so I've been looking at a Glock 27 .40 Or a...

    2jzge-t guys using 1.3mm kit from xs/suprastore

    Recently bought my new motor (from a 95 supra with 88k) and I'm about to start rebuilding it for the swap. Would anyone suggest a kit other than the 1.3mm kit that xs has? I've seen alot of feedback from people who just got done with the swap but none from a year or 2 later. Are the gaskets...

    Deep lip rims front and rear?

    All the pics I've seen everyone runs deep dish rims on the rear only for the staggered look. Does anyone run them on all four? Does it look weird or something?

    Low end power (na-t 2j's chime in)

    Piecing together an NA-t 2j for my (summer) DD I'm aiming for low 400's to mid 500's depending on whether I'm having fun or just driving, and I'm hoping to keep it as street worthy as can be. I plan on ~9:3 compression with a mpt61 .68AR. Cams seem a bit expensive and a little unnecessary for my...

    Strange suspension noise & highway temps

    So lately I've been noticing my car making this strange clunk sound whenever the car surges foreward a bit ie: taking off from a stop light, slow shifting ect. Even stranger is the sound (sometimes) happens when I first sit down in the car....It sounds like two aluminum pipes slapping together...

    The Supra hater experience

    Anyone else have these douche bags around you that seem to hate on you just because of your car? I'm driving through a residential area, with a half primer half green civic hatch with the stupid 8 light bezel in the bumper driving right in front of me. After driving about 500 feet he starts to...

    Attarco bad idea?

    Currently searching for a 2jzge and can't seem to find any other than attarco (and a few expensive eBay adds) but the only reviews I've seen for attarco have been bad. Does anyone have a good opinion on them? Or a better place to find a 2jzge?

    Soarer 2jzge?

    Searching for a motor I found a eBay add for a 2j that came out of a soarer, would I need to swap the oil pan on it? I looked around and saw discussions on using the usdm or spec gs and sc motors but didn't see anyone mention the soarer. Does anyone know what differences there would be? Sent...

    Abs speed sensor cap off?

    I'm installing an r154 which is missing its speed sensor (I'm not sure exactly but I think that's it, it's the sensor right above the tranny mount on drain side of the tranny) into my 87 which has no abs and therefore no sensor to swap to plug the gaping hole in my new transmission. Does anyone...

    Clutch damage

    Pulled my clutch today while doing a trans swap and found some weird damage. It looks like my clutch was grabbing with the springs instead of the surface material. Does anyone know what could cause this? This is a "stage 3" clutch from DM so I doubt it's low quality. Improper install? You can...

    Supra gaurdian angel?

    Woke up this morning to find my car in my neighbors yard. The ebrake was modded by the PO for drifting (although I will be shortly undoing this!!) so that when you lift the ebrake the little ratchet locks don't engage unless the button is pulled out. I've never had any problems with it coming...

    Supra in Joe dirt?

    Joe dirt was on hbo today and I noticed a dark 89+ across the street when Joe pulls up to clem's (the janitor/former mob guy) house. It's only on screen for a second or so but I'm pretty positive. Sorry if it's a repost.

    No start + ghost codes, then code 11, then all clear??

    Well after about 30 minutes of highway driving I got to my friends house, shut my car off and played some beerpong. About 3 hours later I go to leave and all I get is cranking and sputtering like it's juuust about to start but never fired up. After 4 or 5 failed starts I checked codes, I saw 3...

    Holset 7m/2j dyno numbers?

    Well I'm looking around at turbo setups for my 7mgte (will someday go on an NA-t 2jz) and I've just been wanting to see the kind of power they make on the two motors. While it's on the 7m I don't plan to push it past 400 to the wheels but on the 2j setup I would like closer to 500. Also is the...

    Thermostat housing stripped. Helicoil?

    Started a coolant flush yesterday and after I removed the thermostat I couldn't put the outlet back on, the bottom bolt hole is stripped out. Does anyone know what size helicoil to get for it?

    7m getting AEM, 7m tuner needed?

    So I got my car dynoed yesterday to see where I'm at before I put in my AEM. The shop owner said he had never really worked on a 7m (also said mine was the nicest sounding/running he had seen :) ) however when I was leaving he asked if I was trying to go further with the car and I mentioned...

    Headlights don't work, brights do?

    So my supra started throwing a wireing fit it seems. About 2 months ago I started my car late one night, after letting her warmup I went to backout and turned on the headlights, the lights popped up, my fogs came on but my headligts were so dim I couldn't see them over the fogs. The "brights"...

    Knocking sound....from clutch assembly?

    I just recently noticed my car has a random knocking sound after it's fully warm and has been driven a bit, but it varies in noise level, and sometimes sounds like it isn't there at all, but pressing in the clutch always makes it go away and letting the pedal back out is like 50/50 it'll go away...
