[NashMan]

nope i got some issoes to work out with the car

[NashMan]

other one is 80 k 7m form japan 1200

[Enraged]

for that price, id go for the 1jz. there is a bellhousing on ebay for US$400 shipped from jimbo. you could make some money back by parting out your current engine

[NashMan]

naaa i need so much to to make it run it just not worth it but the 7m mabye

[Paradox]

no shit, imagine trying to find a engine harness for a 1jz? its hard enough to even find one for a 7M.... then he'd still have to find everything else

bingo muray you get a prize

but yae i have passed up the 1jz caus ei 7m are easyer to get parts and such

what were you thinkign toby am i made of mee hehe plus i am inpatio9ned as hell

[Enraged]

haha

you make loads of money now dont you? hehe

[NashMan]

no not really but i make good eghough coin to the point were i can spend and not end up with emtypy bank acount when pay day comes around

[Enraged]

lucky bastard :)

[islandsupra]

I can't even get my bank account out of the triple digit minus status after I cash my paycheque. Damn bills...

[Slate 85GTS]

Yeah, being broke sucks... I had to cancel my HKS BOV because i realised i cant afford it right now :(

[legally blonde]

awww that sucks.. :(

[NashMan]

yae loks leik nice bosh will repalce it i guess

[Slate 85GTS]

Nope, i just have to wait until i get some money and no heavy boosting until then i guess. That stocker BOV i have seems to be ok unless you really walk on the throttle. But i should be able to get another HKS on the way soon i hope.

[Paradox]

i ran the stocker with my 20G and about 10psi for awhile before i had my HKS welded on..... no problems really

[Enraged]

worst thing you can do is blow the stocker wide open so you cant boost... might as well do it until you can afford the hks. look on ebay, there were a few cheap ones on there yesterday when i looked

[NashMan]

huh i kinda missed you toby on that one


the only thing bad that happen when the thing is torn or rips or just plain dead is you will chag up you turbine tthat is not good thing to do

in some case's if you have really high boost you cna jujst about stopt eh turbin wheel but at 7 [psi that just not goigto happen alls it will do it make your car run very lean at boosting codtions that and lower you cars power caus eit pretty much liek huge boost leak as well so all around it is not good thig to have on your car


other wise you shoudl fix it just put a stocker on i know the mur man has a spare

[NashMan]

[islandsupra]

I'm planning on going to Kelowna. Hopefully... I still don't know what's up with my car - but I hope to have it fixed by then.

I've already scrapped my other holiday plans, I would really like to check this out and it's been forever since I have been to Kelowna. Hopefully the car is fixed by then :)

[upgradedsupraa]

[legally blonde]

hummm thous are amican thou arnt they

my gasket kit is 450

pistons are 110 each

bvreaing i still have not got a price for cause i still thinking of what to run and i8 might get my crack oil hole drilled larger for more oiling ect but still thinking about that

water pump i just going to lord co for oil pump for got to get price for

as for injectors i was talkign to my body and might still get away wiht 440 on the set up[ i am runing pretty much 15 pounds

all have to get them cleaned thou and run a lex afm and just run stock pump and afp regultor fmu wiht 11 to 1 disc and if i run 550's i have to get 12.1 and sfac 2 and egt and wide band

but we will see but i can't really grow over 15 pounds on 440's

and my trubo is in best range between 13 psi to 18 bvefor the trubo starts to get hot not saying that as high as it will go ti will go to 22 psi easy and still amke power but the intake temps will be tad hotter that i don't 2want ant all espliy if i run 440's


with my ic and stuff never heat soaks at all it cools very well un like my stocker

ps i going ot be dynoing my car just befor i take it off the road and see what power it is makeing right now in it sick state and stuff

any one wana come

[_supras_]

So I'm thinkin about gettin a Mkii, what do I look for? :P
found one for 1g...200***km's 5spd...runs pretty mint.
Anythin to check for?
If I can't get another mkiii, it'll be the mkii, lol

[Paradox]

keegan, check out supras.com, i think they have a buying guide for the MKII aswell as the MKIII.

i painted up my front calipers again today.. made em look a little prettier :D also boosting 20psi again, but my tuning is way off, and gas aint cheap! :(

ahh yes..... how long do ya think these will be good for? haha.. camber wear totally killed these tires.

pic (http://www.pxi.ath.cx/vis/members/paradox/camberwear.jpg)

[Enraged]

get a proper alignment! and those tires are still good for doin big smokeshows :)

[Paradox]

getting alignment with tires asap... but i really dont drive my car that often lately so ive been holding off. :D

[NashMan]

yae me my eninge is saying no more cause........... ding ding i got rod Nock yae it nocks at like 4500 rpm so ummm new motor will be happen very soon

so i think i might not get a dyno of my car just befor i take it off the road most likly i will be starting to pull the motor on saterday or friday

and then say hello to big asss power !!!!!!

[Enraged]

i was wondering how long that thing would last haha

so your goin to rebuild the rodknock motor, or build a new one?

[legally blonde]

OH GOD TOBY YOURE FILLING HIS HEAD WITH TO MANY IDEAS ... HE WILL NEVER STOP

[NashMan]

no just rebuiling the one that is in my car much cheeper

this way better then buyign jdm as well sin ei will know it all brand new and will run great

so i hope to get the enigne out in one day i know i can do this if i put my mind to it plus i riped out more then one in my life so it will make it that just easyer

[AVNGinger]

VIS isnt inactive, email me pics and specs for the cars and i'll add them to the website. parad0x@shaw.ca

[Enraged]

we're not inactive, we're just all broken :)

[islandsupra]

Yeah, nobody's cars really run... damn supras (I said it again!)
But nonetheless, I'll be a part of any local MK3 organization and if it means getting people together for whatever then all the power to you!!

[Enraged]

well im going on the aug revscene meet... if the car is running ok, and provided i actually have the $4 for gas, ill be taking the supra...

well how bout our team could be a mid-island sub-group of VIS?

[Enraged]

haha whatever you want man :)

[AVNGinger]

thats right, whatever i want.....i want a MK4, GIMME NOW!!

[Matt6003]

Im lookin at buying an 89 Supra, just thought I'd get some feedback from other Supra owners, like are they expensive at all do work on?? Plz reply

[islandsupra]

not too bad to work on, but you'll find yourself doing it a fair amount. Remember it's a 15 year old car, so you can't expect to be able to drive it like you stole it, produce gobs of horsepower and not have anything go wrong.
That being said, it's the funnest car I've ever driven and I wouldn't trade it for anything :)

[Matt6003]

Thanks, yeah its alot of fun to drive, I'ts already pretty fast, and I'm sure I'll enjoy doing the work to make the car better(or just make it work)

[AVNGinger]

yeah, also keep in mind that parts can be a bitch to find, the center bearing on the driveshaft alone is $230 and can only be found at the dealers

[Enraged]

center bearing replacement... bah, pointless. just get a one-peice driveshaft....

[NashMan]

supra's are fun cars and is the most rebilbe in it's class

aka 300zx/rx7


it all so veries on what one you get beat on or from grama or from grama that never got it looked after or changed the oil


any ways supra really only have these fults besides age retaded and beat on type thing


head gasket and power attena and they will spin bareing very easy if you don't cheak your oil cause they have no oil light in the cars so don't just drive it around telly ou see the light come on and stuff


ps you have to cheak turbo cars oil more offten then a na car cause trubo will bunr oil even when they are new

head gasket life of a turbo is about 150 to about 180 and the n/a ones are about 200 to 240

[Enraged]

also, if you fix the headgasket properly (new stock gasket with ARP bolts, or a metal head gasket with ARP bolts, torqued higher than the stock rating) they HG is essentially bulletproof, provided the car is in good running condition (no using 87 octane, if you have a fuel computer, dont run it lean, etc, all common sense stuff)

[NashMan]

you funny stock every thign is fine it just depends what you wana do with the car you wana boost big do it right


arp bolts are really only good for after market hg's really think about it what is 8 extra foot pounds gonna do for you cause that is abotut eh most turq you can give the stock hg befor it is to crushed to use and will just blow donw the road

reg compsite can got to 80 foot pounds max 72 is what toyota recomneds on there stock head bolts cause there tencil strith can be pushed ot about 80 befor they start to strech and lose there tencil xstrith but wiht stock head bolts i whould only go 72 sure beat the old 52 turq rating


now hks bead type gasket can be pushed to 90 foots pounds

hks stopper is rated for 95 foot pounds

arp bolts will only go as high as 90 foot pounds befor they go to
there max rating and that is 98 foot ponds

studs can go as high as 120 foot pounds but i for get there max rating i think that might be there max rating i kinda forget really

benfits on studs vs bolts is bolt will not give proper turq rating and will back out of the hed befor studs will and studs will alow poper head gasket alment as well vs bolts

so i hop this explains your answr when it comes to head bolts and such

oh yae the reson why 7m blow hg so easy is cause there bolt pattern they used the motor was flawed since it was made

if we had steel cast heads there whould not be prob at all cause the auml head mixed wiht steel block wiht crapp ass bolt patten

what happens is both meatl heat up at to diffent rates caus ethe head ot walk off the block when you get high in temp and then let cool

if your car runs hot then you will blow you gasket fast if you run cold as nice frosty beer at the bar then your fine


i hope this answer's all teh qestion's about the supra biggest prob

ps i am drunk but what ever

[Matt6003]

The car im lookin at has 220,000kms on it, do any of yours have that many, and which stock parts might be ready to burst on it??

[NashMan]

Originally posted by Matt6003

all depends on how it was treated in it's life sot eh answer is liek used car shit will break

the onyl thign that will go even if ti was tread well is the hg and power anttena

mine had 140 on the motor and after 2 weesk wiht eh motor i blew hg i am at 175 to 180 and i blew my gasket again and have rod nock now but i drive my car hard and took not great care wiht ti caus ei got lazy and had coolent leak cause air to get into my system and my car ran hot caus ei had no fan shrould and was to cheep to buy a new one or eletriac fan that flows over 2500 cfm

my car ran hot 210 all the time the supra should run at 180 rock solid

so i kinda asked for it oh well

my new motor will be diffetn story caus ei droping so good coin inot my motor so we will see what happens

[Matt6003]

Im getting it off of a friend of mine, and from what I know its been treated pretty well, so hopefully I dont have much to worry about

[Matt6003]

By the way, if anybody knows where I can get an MKIII in decent condition for less than $5000, PM me

[NashMan]

i know of one for sale has some mods doen ti it as well

[Matt6003]

Any idea how much?

[AVNGinger]

has anyone here had to get their rusted wheel wells fixed?

[Enraged]

ive got a bit of rust forming on the wheel well fender... ill either fix it when i paint it, or chop it out and add flares.

[NashMan]

thing about wheel wells is cut it out or it will come back and plus all body shop will not grantte a sand blast type of fix for very long max i have ever sean is about 5 years in less it is veru small and minor

i thinkt eh car is going for about 4000 bucsk ti has rod nock thou so it might be cheeper now

[Matt6003]

Where is it located?

[NashMan]

in victoria

[AVNGinger]

well the rust has ate 6 inch holes right thru on both wheel wells, the macphearson struts are supported by the wheel wells....

[Matt6003]

Nashman do you have a phone # for that supra?

[Matt6003]

Yeah i do mean the deep cove gas station, i wonder who knows somebody with an 87 supra..

[Matt6003]

Im trying to buy an 89 at the moment

[Paradox]

a chic that worked there asked me about a 89 whitepackage once... maybe you were the guy she was refering to that wanted one?

MKIII for me alll the way but thought I would ask since he is selling it ;)

Duane

[Matt6003]

Might as well, do you know of any MKIII's for sale?

spent the last hour getting the turbo etc off...the turbo is damn heavy, but at least the oil lines weren't too much of a bitch to get off. exhaust mani came off easy, i think it was leaking a bit at the gasket, but thats ok becasue im cleaning it up and porting it a bit anyways.... and yes, im takin my sweetass time, but im in no rush, and i have to figure out how and when i can afford to get the head machined...

[NashMan]

don't bother porting the exhuast many you never get any where with out a die grinder trust me i looked into it it so not worht the truble and all the bits you will go through

[Enraged]

not really porting, just cleaning up casting flash and such.... although now would be the time to build an exhaust mani...

[Paradox]

so when ya gonna have it runnin' again? haha

all speak for him never hehehhehehehh

[Enraged]

check ebay, search for supra 550. the guy was selling PTE injectors for US$330 for 6, with clips.

[Nightwalker]

Thanks guys! I'm hunting for deals. I can get 450s for $130us but 550s would be perfect, so I'm looking around.

[Enraged]

if you want really cheap injectors, there are 550s in rx7s that work, but you will need to find 3 cars (2 injectors/car)...

Yeah, I thought of that, I'm going to be looking around and see if there's some around. Only the early ones are peak/hold though.

Stealth R/T TT

sidefeed injectors?

be leav it or not but the stelth is top feed if i remmmber right

can anyone get me a deal on a center support bearing, the dealerships want $230 for it, it doesnt exsist in the after-market scene and i dont want to have to take my car off the road to take the bearing into a driveshaft shop to get it rebuilt.

it would take an afternoon to get your driveshaft turned into a one-peice.... well worth it, and ALOT cheaper than buying a new center bearing....

I CAN get them rebuilt, the drive-shaft shops said they could replace the bearing in it, but if anyone knows somebody or such that could get me a better deal, that would be great, if not, then dont.

[Paradox]

considering you never even said what sort of 'deal' you're getting, its kind of hard not to tell you not what to do :p

[Matt6003]

Murray you were right about the car, it has some problems with the head gasket

[Paradox]

yeah, that sucks.... either give a lowball offer and fix it yourself or seek out another car. i wouldnt be suprised if the head on that car is warped pretty bad by now, but who knows...

[Enraged]

engines are cheap nowadays... hell, you could get it rebuilt for around $2k if you remove/install the engine...

[Matt6003]

Yeah I'm just lookin for another one

[Paradox]

keep lookin' matt, might wanna check up island too..

i got my new tires on today, and managed to get my exhaust lined up properly with the DP, thanks to Tom at penbrake. :)
3" exhaust gaskets are a bitch to find!

new tires are awesome, went with 225's upfront this time instead of 235's and these are kumho supra's... havent had much of a chance to take it into twisties but so far it feels 10x better than before...

W Rated, im not expecting them to last very long heh. but hot damn do they stick to the road. i pushed it through a few corners and the car sticks like glue now

[Enraged]

get an alignment this time haha

i dont know why you had trouble finding gaskets, i got 2 for about $4 from B&B Auto, they had them in stock in town.

[Paradox]

i did get alignment.. sadly i still have negative camber because the front of my car sits too low, it just cant be pushed any more positive

i ended up finding a 3" gasket at sidney brake and tire or whatever its called on 5th street, was probably for a diesel truck or something tho. ended up having to chop the thing up. most 3" is 3 bolt instead of 2

[Enraged]

im having a hell of a time finding stainless 3" 3 bolt flanges... everyone wants $40+ for them...

[Slate 85GTS]

Hey guys, im tossing the idea of selling the supra around. I will just wait and see if i get any interest but if anyone is interested let me know. Email me bob_cotton67@hotmail.com for more info. Only people that are serious please. Thanks.

[Paradox]

how much?

Matt hit this up!

[islandsupra]

Bob, what the fuck??? (unless you are thinking about a gixxer again, ahaha)
Don't sell it for less than what buddy before was going to offer you!
I'll talk to you more about this tomorrow :S

[Paradox]

did ruebens car go boom?

..... thats what i heard.

[Matt6003]

Murray you said i should look at an rx 7, what do you think about a 91?

[Matt6003]

I know im playin with fire mentioning that in the Supra thread, but i would much rather own an mk 3 than an rx 7

[Slate 85GTS]

Originally posted by Matt6003

How much are you looking to spend on an mkiii supra?

[Matt6003]

i can spend up to 6,000

[Paradox]

Rx7's are great fun too, i used to own one. loved it to bits til the engine exploded as most rotaries will in time.

if you do look at Rx7's only get a rebuild one, err now that i think about it, i know a guy in vancouver selling a pretty sweet ass 85 Rx7 GSL-SE, not nearly as much potential as a supra, but its clean, modded and rebuilt. ofcourse it is old so it will need some restoration, the owner has done most of the drivetrain repair but it does need some diff. work... not really sure what generation of Rx7 you're interested in, but heres one to peak at. i know he needs to get it off his property ASAP to make room for a R32 skyline hes buying..

http://revscene.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=219143

if you have more cash id go to something newer, and preferably made by toyota, tho :D

[Matt6003]

yeah i would preferably own something made by toyota

[NashMan]

toyota suck now there best cars are in the past it is so sad


as what bob want's to do wiht his car is fine if it was me i whould keep it but eh he is not me so blaaaaa

fun frist then settel done when you had all your fun done

[islandsupra]

Yeah my car went "boom" I guess. Don't really know what happened...
Just never had the time to check anything out really - fucker died on me when I was trying to move back up island to start work.

But Bob is picking it up today for me :) We'll know exactly what is wrong sometime in the near future, hopefully it's not too too major - or else the supra is gonna be parked for a while... again.

[NashMan]

humm my bloody sub frame did not come today geez when will this fucker come in it should be here topmmrow well it better it shoudl ahve bena here monday

i thinking on buying polly bushing's but i don't know yet i am thinking thou on buying them i think i will just weight tell the motor is done then go form there

http://pxi.ath.cx/misc/redthing.jpg

[Enraged]

ya, i dont know what it is, and the wire leading to it has been cut...

[Paradox]

thanks toby for letting me check out your car. easier to make sense of that kind of thing when i can see it up close, or in actual photographs, instead of the crappy diagrams in the TSRM or haynes manual (which i seem to have lost during renovations... :(
)

whew, lowered my fuel pressure a bit and did a bit more tuning later today, hopefully that detonation under boost was just from that and the heat. today is really the only time ive noticed it, i also had the AFPR at like 43psi by accident :lol

i got somewhat camera happy later on, too.. here's one pic

[Paradox]

solid bushings sound..... interesting haha, how much do you think kenny could make those up for?

[Enraged]

for the entire car? NOT cheap ha

ryan, that thing is on the drivers side, you think its a grounding point? there is another engine > battery ground lower down...

[Matt6003]

Murray do you have a front plate on your car?

[Paradox]

toby, ryan thinks its for monitoring oil temps. however he didnt say they were for gauges or the ECU, which leaves me baffled or him talking shit. your choice..

matt, i am such a paranoid freak as to not getting pulled over i actually removed my plate at my house, and put it back on at that exact same spot on the road just so i wouldnt ended up getting a stinkin' fine for something that is so redundant.... haha

[Matt6003]

yeah i got a warning twice for not having a front plate, managed to go a year without replacing it, but i sold the car to my mom now so i dont have to worry about it anymore

the sprint is going in tomorrow for a new clutch and brakes :)

[NashMan]

[Enraged]

there are pics on his website. from what i see, its basically some heavy duty steel with a high quality bearing at the end. im sure you could make one just as nice. are you painting your subframe? if so, make the trailing arms the same. i think powdercoating would be the best bet, i wonder how much the subframe would cost...

[upgradedsupraa]

No copy copy :nono:

"similar" then. no offense intended, not like i intend to sell them :)

theres lots of parts i want to make that are similar to production peices, but if i can make them myself i can do more mods on my limited budget :)

No worries dude. I take it as a compliment anyway ;)

Duane

I know your on a budget and i know how it feels.

[Enraged]

ya it sucks, i have enough money for some nice used Work Equips.... or a semester of school haha. i guess schools the best idea for the long run, right? :)

I bet that thing doesn't even run... but I gotta admit I like the sunroof :P

[Enraged]

so whats the problem?? was i right?? :)

[islandsupra]

heh.... what did you think it was?
we still don't know, I'm quite sure that it wasn't the starter, but praying that it was since that's what a few other people thought.

just from trying to turn it over, and it being so tight and slow, I think it means bad news.

[Enraged]

if its bad news (bottom end toast) ill keep my eyes open for a deal for you.

[islandsupra]

thanks man!

[NashMan]

but i gonna wight for the motor to be done frist thou

but the big thing thou will my clutch hold all of this what i am doing i kinda getting tot eh word no i will fryit so i migth sell just teh dsi and go wiht solid 4 puck clutch since the tranny can take the abuse now

[Enraged]

no need for a solid hub man, look into some other clutches. spec stage 3 would work, or maybe you can just get an upgraded disc for your ACT clutch.

[NashMan]

meh soild is great when the tranny can take it

but i think i will just kill my act if any thign i herd they can hold alot fo power over there rating and stuff


i wana get my car on 7mpower.com and i might beable to i think caus ei was looking on there and they have some gusy at 411 and stuff and i think my car will do that well at lest hope so

jeff at suprasport was selling two, for US$165. however, the MAFT is $199 - $20 coupon for supramania members, so US$179, then you can probably talk to your neighbor to get the MAF that you need for cheap ( 3" corvette MAF works i think)....

[NashMan]

there are no gains to going math that i see in less i push juice the i just say fuck to maf and run enamge if i goign that root

plus it pain to tune iu have bean asking dj and he says it works but no gains that you can't get wiht the setup that i am runing

yup. ryans is an 86.5 NA Hardtop. he blew the original engine (which had alot of miles on it anyways) and swapped in a turbo engine. now hes blown up the turbo engine and rebuilding it to run 9s. or somthing.

so he went from a NA, to a TURBO and now he is a NE (no engine) jeeze ryan!
