NashMan 08-18-2009 12:44 AM

supora are way cool cars ps io am drunkl
4x4 cost you money

Island_Yota 08-18-2009 04:20 PM

So I gotta start collecting parts for my swap, want to keep the fuel system stock, not planning on much boost either. Looking for some stock junk if anyone has it around, intercooler plumbing, a stock AFM, a throttle cable/cruise control actuator, 10 blade fan probably some other shit just to get it up and running. Doing a bit of a rebuild on the motor, pulling the head off and replacing all the gaskets and seals, ARP's and an OEM probably, might pull the oil pan and check out the bearings, front and rear main seals, some coolant lines too. Wanna buy a nice downpipe, already have a test pipe and exhaust. Also need to figure out a good full disk clutch for the W58.

NashMan 08-18-2009 04:43 PM

w58 and turbo don't mix well

clutch will cost yae cause the stock one will die

better off gettign r154 and stock clutch

theres no r154's around or I would, not bringing one up from the states either costs to much, rather use what I have.

Enraged 08-19-2009 08:59 AM

cheaper to just buy a turbo car

Renthal 08-19-2009 09:24 AM

already have a motor and most of the stuff for the swap, gonna swap my car because the 7mge is tired, plus ive already done alot of other stuff to my Supra that I wouldnt want to do again like the heatercore, rear suspension bushings, driveshaft center support etc.. and over all its not in to bad of shape, body is fairly clean, interior is not bad at all.

Gonna stick with the W58, found a few clutches that arent too bad priced.

Enraged 08-19-2009 04:24 PM

just dont powershift it. dr jonez on supramania ran a w58 when he had over 400rwhp, so if you treat it right it will probably be fine.

thats the plan, I dont drive my vehicles very hard.

NashMan 08-19-2009 05:31 PM

you cab beat on teh w58 just run a good oil


it just the clutch is the sad part they very exp when you grow on power

get one that will hold 400 turq a stock 7mge can get over 300 pretty easy on stock trubo and fule

don't bother putting in stock ic piping is plain junk

wes-harrison 08-21-2009 05:18 PM

lol...sooo...i was selling my car to pay for school...but ran into some money...sooo im not selling it anymore...but im selling off all the turbo stuff part by part...mostly on supramania...so if u need anything ask me...i got pretty much all of it except dp and afm...and rob i do wanna sell the springs still tho...but i wanna keep my struts...just pm me if u still wanna buy the springs and we can pick a day to swap them

TobyCat 08-21-2009 06:14 PM

pretty sure i have the cables to...and i have a fan..but one of the blades is broken...so i guess u could only use it for the fan clutch...but just lmk when ur coming down..you can just look through my boxes of parts in my garage and pick through for the stuff you need or want

Island_Yota 08-22-2009 11:07 PM

NashMan 08-22-2009 11:44 PM

i am gettgin so sick of supramanai

to the point i gonna wash my hand with this shit

wes-harrison 08-23-2009 01:50 AM

what did supramania do to you? aha

Island_Yota 08-23-2009 04:36 PM

so my n/a is leaving puddles of oil everywhere now, looks like rear main or cam covers cant tell, dont care, need to insure one of my other pieces of shit so I can pull it out.

Anyone want to buy the GE after I pull it? would be sweet in a pickup or 4runner, obviously needs a rebuild, $400 or something with the ECU and wiring, taking a couple things off it for the GTE but will be complete for the most part.
