    Holset turbo on 1jz?

    Hi, I planned on using a H351 on my 1j before it was stolen and totaled. So i cant tell you how it is on my car, but my buddy is running one on his 7m and making over 440 to the wheels at around 19 psi. It is a beast! For the cost, you cant find anything near the quality. I work for Diesel...

    HOW TO: Charging your A/C air conditioner conditioning system at home.

    I am not sure if you missed it, but my last post mentioned modern R-12 refridgerant. I seriously do not recommend using R-134a on your supra. It is a horrible refridgerant, r-12 is MUCH cooler. There are quite a few alternatives that do not contain CFCs, yet work just like R-12 and will not...

    BAD DAY! MY 1JZ MKIII was stolen and wrecked today!

    Thank you. Yeah, i have healed a lot since may. I do not hate the guy anymore. I am moving on and looking forward as much as possible. My baby still sits next to my house. I am needing to strip her down, but i am having a very hard time doing it. I hope this guy gets help he needs. Sadly the...

    BAD DAY! MY 1JZ MKIII was stolen and wrecked today!

    Thanks guys for the encouragement. I am dressed in a suit and i have all my paperwork and testimony typed up. I think it will go well, but i am still nervous. I will update how it goes. It is going to be strange to be speaking in front of a bunch of jurors.

    BAD DAY! MY 1JZ MKIII was stolen and wrecked today!

    Well, I wanted to give you all an update. Some good news and not so good. Well about 7-10 days after it was stolen i got the car back at my house. Sadly it was much worse then i had thought. The car had been completely stripped by the jerk. Only a few of his crappy tools were left in the car and...

    BAD DAY! MY 1JZ MKIII was stolen and wrecked today!

    I finally talked with the insurance adjuster today. The adjuster only works on cases like mine, stolen cars and fire. He lives in Tacoma, WA. He is going to be setting me up with a independent appraiser in Port Orchard, WA. I believe the appraiser runs a tuner or engine build shop. I don't...

    BAD DAY! MY 1JZ MKIII was stolen and wrecked today!

    Update: my insurance company has told me that i need to look for a new car. So i believe they are totaling it. I plan to buy it back and probably salvage what i can. My father also has friends with the police, so he was able to get the name and number for the arresting officer. He also got the...

    BAD DAY! MY 1JZ MKIII was stolen and wrecked today!

    No, I dont think so. The car still had a CAT. Also it was registered in an area without emissions required. That would suck though.

    BAD DAY! MY 1JZ MKIII was stolen and wrecked today!

    Somehow he had a key. THat is what i think atleast. There was no forced entry as far as I know. I believe he just jumped in and then pushed the car probably a block before he turned it on. Otherwise i would have heard it. The car sat about 15-20 feet from the bedroom window. Factory alarm.

    BAD DAY! MY 1JZ MKIII was stolen and wrecked today!

    Yeah, I have poured 6 years of dreaming 1 year of building and 3 years of enjoyment into this car. She was my baby. I don't know what i am going to do without my supra. I NEVER EXPECTED THIS! I don't drive a corolla or a Camry or a Honda. Usually those are the targets. I have been driving Supras...

    Motor is blown. Probably not worth it. We will see.

    Yeah, just last week I was talking with a painter friend. After 4 years of driving her, i was finally going to give her the proper paint job she deserved.

    BAD DAY! MY 1JZ MKIII was stolen and wrecked today!

    Wow, today has been bad. Well at least the start. I woke up and was heading to work. I stayed at my girlfriend's house last night. I parked right in front of the door pretty close to a street lamp. Well, i am putting on my shoes and i look out the front door window and i didn't see my car. So i...

    2008 Supra MKIII - Project 1BYDFALT

    I got one off off of ebay about 5 years ago. It has Japanese writing all over it. I still have not put it together. I just leave it in the box, because the box looks awesome!

    Fix for Error Code 42: Speed Sensor Error

    I am going to post a few videos of my boost gauge going nutz from last year. I think it is related to the issue. I cant get my cruise to work at all now. I have tried like 2 or 3 times in the last week since i reset my ECU. It turns on for appx 20-30 seconds and then shuts off and the cruise...

    Spartan living, or, "How to budget for a Supra project"

    Dude, I love this!!! Haha, it was like I was reading from my own mind. :) I have always felt very justified by spending money on my toys, ie supra and motorcycle, because i choose not to smoke, drink or do drugs. I go to the movies, but that is about all for entertainment. I am very very frugal...
