well my front end is all back together, looks sweet with the bright red calipers :) so now its just the fuel system, mount the IC, finish the FFI, and build some hardpipes. im ordering the bends in the next day or two, so if anyone wants aluminum bends let me know.
ryan: i want my afm back, and you can pick up your stickers. oh ya, and i need that t fitting, let me know what you want for it.
matt: come get your speakers and your stickers
anyone else who wanted stickers: come get them.

After painting Craig's sawblades a gunmetal grey, I think it clashed too much with the car/tires. I don't think I'd paint my rims a dark color unless my car was white. Even then, I'm a fan of polish/chrome.
Going out to polish more.

yeah i'd like to try the polished ones, but maybe i'll paint the other set a dark gray

don't worry dude, you'll end up fixing it and you'll regret it and love it at the same time. It's just the way it seems to go (well, the smart ones bail out early lol).
And I know about the feeling that it used to be in good shape, My car used to be awesome.... and I spun a rod bearing with less than 70,000 original miles and had to replace the engine last summer... like I say, just seems to be the way she goes.
Hopefully it's not that bad though dude.
I'm also pretty sure I'm gonna pop my headgasket soon. hopefully it'll last till winter so I can park it and fix it lol.

Yeah, the bastard. He needed an engine, and he would've probably spent god only knows how much to get one. I figured why not bite the bullet & let him get the boost. We'll see what happens for me in the future.
Matt, all I did for a finish like in the photo was use a disc sander @ 30psi w/ 220 grit sand paper, get all the paint off, then sand it again with 320 grit.
After its all nice, I used a metal polish called "AutoSol". It was $7 at Lordco.

wow that is alot of work way of doing it
i find the best way to make you wheels shinny is
go to lord co buy air craft stripper only air craft cause the otehr stuff really sucks and makes a really big mess and makes more work
damp rag in the stuff wipe the wheels weight liek 15 mins wipe off all the paint
after that take like 700 grit then do quick wiht 1000
then go to canaidan tire buy teh the aumlen stick polish and buffying wheel for drill the stick is green there are 3 diffent type's
and after that you have mirro wheel
oh yae this shoudl take you about 30 45 min's a wheel for start to done
hope this goes wells wiht yuou guys i can possiles really fast and have mirro

So the Supra is finally gone!! Its about time... even though i had to let it go for $2500 bucks as a running car, it will pay off in the end by not having to put anymore money into it. If anyone wants some hardpipes or my turbo timer let me know.

Yeah Murray, the car was just a nightmare from day one. And before i bought that car, i probably wanted a supra more than anyone here... ever since i bought my celica i always dreamed of owning a supra after that. I guess it was just the wrong one to start with or something because it was nothing but trouble as you probably know. I cant say that im fond of the 7M motor in the least anymore... but anyways i had to let it go cheap because it developed some bad knock/noise that im sure was rodknock not two weeks after i got the head back on with the metal headgasket. That was the final straw. It seemed like nobody wanted it so i sold it back to Shane, the kid i bought it from originally for what i paid for it.

that car was cool, I liked the look of it but I agree it was nothing but trouble for you. 2500 or not, you saved yourself a buttload of cash and trouble in the long run.

nice turbo! just a little modification of the compressor outlet there and it will be good to go!
matt, the fastener i s pressed into 14 gauge steel and hold an additional 1 or 2 layers of 14 gauge. its a pivot that uses a c-clip to hold the metal together, made of brass. pretty cool to see something i basically designed that is going to be on a production piece that may be sold all over the world :)

might he salvable aslong as its in the piping not the header itself. get ryan to weld it up or talk to jon/alan at sidney brake and muffler. you could get away with just getting a straight piece of pipe in place of the rusted crap, also removing the cat. altho not as good as a totally new exhuast it will be cheaper.
speaking of exhausts. anyone ever heard or tried something like this to quiet down the tone? it fits inside the piping and acts like a muffler. http://store.summitracing.com/default.asp?target=egnsearch.asp&N=4294923429+4294865405

1. 1) An interjection similar to "YAYE!" or "Woohoo!" used to express joy or excitement, usually about some kind of accomplishment. Primarily used by gamers, spreading rapidly to anyone who chats online
Gaming origins: We Owned the Other Team
or Wonderful Loot (Everquest gaming slang)
2) To express agreement
3) As an acronym, can mean Waste of Our Time or Way Out of Topic (online forums) Less common.
1)woot! I got an A on this test.
2)Robyn: Eric is such a tool. Let's put packing peanuts in his desk.

I just saw on SF you said you didn't really like the sound of them - but I like mine... I dunno. It does drone a bit at idle, so I suppose that might be a bigger problem with the bigger muffler/exhaust?

Stupid imageshack won't let me load the thumbnail for the second one - although there is an almost definite chance that it is due to user error lol.
the wheels are pretty beat up and kinda fit weird but the tires are awesome and I like 'em better than the sawblades!

Lookin good Reuben, definately a step up from sawblades!

wow that's a odd off set you got going your wheel are like stikign in and stuff
islandsupra
10-10-2005, 08:18 PM
yep. I knew the wheels wouldn't be the best sized and fit, but I needed new tires desperately and only paid a few hundred more for this than it would have cost me to put 4 decent new tires on the sawblades. And I hate those f'ing things.
still need to get the camber corrected and go for an alignment though!

yep they are... are you the guy that was getting rid of a set last year?
I've had these sittin in my garage FOREVER... contemplating whether it was worth buying new rear tires and putting them on or just trying to get rid of them. But my rear tires on the sawblades had spots with literally no tread left so I had to bite the bullet.

Ryan, are you gonna be able to do the exhaust this weekend? I need to know so i can get insurance first.
Paradox
10-13-2005, 09:53 PM
matt i was thinking if you're going with a header and a straight-through muffler you're probably going to want something in between, a resonator or another muffler. keep that in mind or you might end up with one loud ass beast.
on a turbo car the exhaust isnt nearly as loud since the turbo itself baffles out so much noise, but with yours its going to be fucking noisy if ryan just makes it all straight through.
my rx7 is like this after the header and its a mega pain in the ass.
islandsupra
10-14-2005, 12:39 AM
yeah it will sound probably like ass without a cat/resonator in between.

10-14-2005, 08:42 PM
