Whats up? I'm from San Antonio/San Marcos (1jzgte). The only guys I know from S.A. are rockpapersword (1jzgte) and san supra (7mgte). I saw in a Thread that you need a back window. Which one? I Have another supra (white) that I am parting out. I am also going to buy a 3rd This friday. LMK

Well ill be honest this is my first project car and im still learning how to do shit. Im looking to get the whole rear hatch with glass and all because i think that would be easier than cutting out the glass. But im glad to hear a couple of you guys are here in san antonio.

Me and a couple of guys from S.A. want to have a little get together you in?

I've never heard of anyone doing a twin turbo 7m-gte. Do you mean the 1jz-gte thats a twin turbo?

7m-gte with twin turbo. It is doable. Need to have a custom build intake manifold and there is a twin turbo manifold for 7m-gte at e-bay.$$$ Here is a picture of 7m-gte with twin turbo

His name is Yannis440. I think he is a member of Supramania. I don't know him but i stumbled into his picture when I googled 7m-gte with twin turbo.

I checked it out pretty cool, but has to be very expensive,and lots of custom parts. looks like he makes a bunch of parts himself. he can weld his ass off. That is a nice fuel cell. So are you in on the get together?

Sick ass engine. Depends on what day you plan on the get together. I work graveyard shift you know how that can be very tiring. I always get tired. I work as dorm staff. Why you got three supras? what you plan to do with them? Make money off parts?

Don't you think? You are probably right about it. I will need to do my research about 2j2 in mk3. I like to keep american version of 7m-gte. Should I say 7m-gTTe?

How does a friday or saturday sound? We are still just kicking the idea around.
1st one had a bhg. So instead of fixing it I bought a 1jz swaped supra. and parted out the other. Fixing to pick up a 87 turbo 5 speed tt for $500 on saturday, but if my bother in law wants it its his. It needs to be put back together. If it starts it will be a damn good deal.

If you want to keep the 7m just have someone build up the 7m gte with mhg pistons rods ect..... Thats what san supra is doing. It will be a lot cheaper and easier the 7mgtte you were talking about or the 2jzgte swap.

Yeah thats cool bring your scrap book. LOL

When do you think you'll be done?

Where should we meet? any ideas?

So far we've got you, me, taco, rps, and satx88supra. The last one there is my brother in law.Y'all guys add him to your friends. He ended up keeping that 88 that we picked up last week for $500. We took it home put it together and she stated right up. I sent an invite to Suprapowaz!(2). He said his car has been down for years. But I told him he's still invite. so Thats a possible 6th. Valverde might come out. he works nights and might not be able to make it.
