    400hp suspension upgrades

    Im at about 375 and I found that the driveline is the ends up taking the beating. If you have it out, I would do it while you are there. With my suspension regularly maintained (subframe retorque, new bj/tr, better pads/rotors) and stock drive line it drove nice and straight, however after a few...

    Ditto. For ~450 I would like to see how they look on the road before committing to buy a pair, otherwise it looks like the mk3 supra finally has an easy headlight upgrade available =].

    A new manual transmission is in town... The 'V154' !

    has anyone had success with different metal treatment on the stock gears, ie stop peen/ cryo treated? Im guessing factors such as sprung and unsprung clutches will also depend on how much power you can put down. From what ive seen its shock load that does these transmissions in.

    Supra Restoration/ Reproduction Parts - Has anyone thought about this?

    Rear quarter/spare wheel-well sheet metal replacements would be a good starting point. +1 on window trim, iirc its 1300 for the window trim all around, if it goes to the 400-600 range I would highly consider buying.

    Fitting for water meth

    If you couldnt find the exact replacement, you could probably just make your own using brass fittings. Check out mcmaster/grainger/fastenal for what you need.

    hatch floor

    Its alot easier to get a section cut from a clean car then replace the whole section by forming and welding metal in. Theres always more rust then you think, by getting a cut section you only have to cut and replace.

    A lot has changed since I've been involved with the Supra community.

    I still say that the forum gets good traffic daily , there isn't many big break throughs since we are working with a 25 year old car , most of what people need to know is already out there. I remember when r154s were 250 all day. If I knew how high the price would have gone I would have saved...

    Rack And Pinion info needed!

    IIRC the problem with the flaming river rack is to do with the steering rack to steering shaft coupler. From the threads I have read, they say that the shaft coupler or the steering shaft needs to be modified which is a big No-No. I just replaced my rack in my car, granted I had the engine...

    Im running the modified LS400 clutch pack and 7m fan on my 2j swapped mk3, stock style radiator tho! I got a ton of space between the fan and the radiator, I can give you an exact measurement later but I will say it looks like I could fit a big after market rad with this setup!
