anyone wanna buy a rear bumper or some front fenders that are in good shape? ahah

or some brand new struts with lowering springs already mounted?

[Island_Yota]

what year is that car? are those pre-89 front fenders?

[Enraged]

you should pull the glass before you scrap it. the door windows and side windows are worth something i bet. the hatch too if its not rusty.

[NashMan]

i would save the hood to for when it snows out there so much fun a;ll you need is big hill

[wes-harrison]

are the fenders different?...theyre in great shape

[NashMan]

i am keeping my old sun roof for when it snows

[Island_Yota]

Anyone want my stock sawblades? they are on used vic for $100, obviously cheaper for anyone on here.. rubber is toast.

[Enraged]

figure out how much you can get for them as scrap aluminum. call up budget steel.

[Island_Yota]

figure out how much you can get for them as scrap aluminum. call up budget steel.

Already have way to much aluminum in our scrap at the shop, rather see these get used as winter wheels or drift spares or whatever, they are in pretty good condition just dirty, have 16 lugs to go with them, I kept my locking lugs.


Oh and, if anyone finds a JL W7 forsale used let me know, my buddies truck got broken into last night.. il get more details, if the box got stolen its 1 of a kind, custom fiber glass.

[Enraged]

my point is that i wouldnt pay for sawblades. ill be giving mine away or scrapping them, and selling the tires.

[Island_Yota]

[Renthal]

much interest on ur car rob?...is it grey interior or maroon?

[Renthal]

Grey someone was supposed to buy it yesterday... but yea lots of interest!

Wes, just buy mine and do the swap.. :thumbsup: I just tore the motor apart some more today.

Or buy that RHD 1JZ one thats been forsale forever, probably one of the nicer ones forsale, its $4500 though.

[Enraged]

[Island_Yota]

buy this http://www.usedvictoria.com/classified-ad/10461619

I wanted it, trans grinds, diff is bunk.. can't deal with a maroon interior anyway, still thinking about it but im picking up a 93 Toyota pickup.. have enough vehicles as it is.

[wes-harrison]

hmm..i might just wait till after winter and see what comes up...i might get one off supramania...

[Enraged]

get the money together and wait for a 91 or 92 in good condition to come up. plane tickets are cheap, and its easy to bring cars back across the border. aim for a car from a dry climate, like california or something.

i browse the cars for sale on SM once in awhile, if a black with shadow grey 5 spd turbo came up for sale, id ditch the bmw and buy it :)

[NashMan]

^ some one misses stick

[Renthal]

vroooom---psshhh
who's got some performance parts they wanna sell

[Enraged]

ive got an upper hardpipe with an HKS bov mount, goes from throttle body to fender... thats about it, although ill probably discover parts once the car is out of the garage.

i think every supra should get the nashman stage 1 package (intake, full 3" turbo back exhaust, hardpipes, wastegate shim, and beer).

[NashMan]

vroooom---psshhh
who's got some performance parts they wanna sell

i got parts want a set of cams befor toby buys them

or other miss junk i got set of nolgy plug wires too there pretty bad ass

[Enraged]

mopac is so much better than lordco. lordco would take up to 6 weeks to get some vacuum hose from their cranbrook store, i call up mopac and they have it on the shelf, shipped to my door for less than the price lordco quoted me on the hose alone...

[Enraged]

ryan, you been to this supra forum? www.supra411.com

[NashMan]

[Enraged]

how about a white 92? http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/cto/1459147220.html

[Renthal]

its auto!

[Enraged]

so? swap it. its harder to find a clean 92 with a good body than it is to swap a trans. ryan could probably do it in no time.

[TobyCat]

Any advice on brakes? I've had the same set for 5+ years now and they're down to about 10%...

On one hand I don't want to spend money on a 22 year old car, on the other hand I love this POS ;)

Options:
OEM replacement ~$500
Upgraded rotors/pads. Probably Rotora w/ Portorfield R4s ~$700
Wilwood fronts, same as above rears (I want to maintain my ebrake) ~$1500

[Enraged]

best bang for the buck available:

http://www.supramania.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1177200&postcount=176

[Island_Yota]

someone should really buy my car/motor.

[Enraged]

bent another damn rim on the bmw. wtf... stupid victoria roads.

so i either spend $175 to get it straightened, $300 for a new wheel, or buy 18s for $600. going to need 2 new tires in the near future anyways, so im considering just getting the 18s. the current wheels are curbed to shit by previous owners *looks at ryan*

[Island_Yota]

Ryan, you have a 7mgte AFM around? need throttle cable setup too, il be in Langford sunday.

[Enraged]

i can but wouldnt, besides, icbc has been saying they are going to increase insurance on RHD cars because of increased risk. valid point or not, the savings in buying RHD would be made up with insurance...

looked at the 87 sunday and i already am meeting the guy with the 89 tonight aha...didnt really like the 87 and its way too fin cold to swap a 5 spd right now aha

[Enraged]

how was the 87s paint?

[wes-harrison]

its not original and the front bumper had been chipped pretty badly...other than that it looked really good, interior wasnt as clean as i would like tho...but what do u expect for 2 grand

[Enraged]

true.

im keeping my eye out for a 92 turbo targa with shadow grey interior... preferably in grey/silver/black.

[impreza_scott]

I originally wanted a MK3 supra too but didn't like the automatic or RHD

Anyone know what it'd be like to swap a RHD to LHD? figure you just need a donor car?

[mr_baboon]

Why wouldn't you just buy a LHD 5speed, it's not like there's a shortage of them.

[4doorVIP]

RHDs have the 1J

[wes-harrison]

yea but to swap rhd to lhd you need a donor car...swapping a 1J in would be way easier:confused:

[impreza_scott]

it's not like there's a shortage of them.

O rly?

it was hard to find one in decent shape without 200,000+kms

The Japanese ones have fewer kms and are usually in way better condition, nicer options, from what i've seen... plus it's JDM

USDM ones have burgandy interior.. lolwat?

[NashMan]

RHDs have the 1J


1j's are shit

[wes-harrison]

1j's are shit and 2j's are the shit:)

[4doorVIP]

1j's are shit

Your spelling is usually shit, 1J's are great motors. I'd take a 1J over the 7M anyday of the week

[impreza_scott]

yea but to swap rhd to lhd you need a donor car...swapping a 1J in would be way easier:confused:
donor cars are easy to find imho, maybe not supras? just find a non running supra... or check the j/y's

[4doorVIP]

Non running MKIIIs are easy to find ;)

[wes-harrison]

so are family 4 door sedans...add some 20s and a bit of camber and bam VIP baby ahahah

[4doorVIP]

Donk is where it's at

[NashMan]

Your spelling is usually shit, 1J's are great motors. I'd take a 1J over the 7M anyday of the week


this shows you how much you know

for the price of 1j plus swap and to get it to do 500hp

I can do less on a 7mgte and still have more torq

these are the 1j's con's


cams are shit
stock tiwns are shit
stock fule rails are shit
stock fuel injector's are shit
1j map sencer is shit
hydro fans are shit

there is reason why they made the 2j cause it was better

so this is short and sweet

7m or 2j

[Renthal]

Non running MKIIIs are easy to find ;)


I'm sure when some of these imported Aristo's and supra's with 1j's get up to 250,000 - 280,000K, like all of the domestic 7m's, there will be a lot of non-running 1j's too.

[NashMan]

^ if any thign is not cared for they will all die

[Enraged]

90% of the reason people think the 7M isnt reliable is because of poor and cheap maintainence by owners. Build it properly and dont cheap out, and it will last for ages.

[Rx harnek]

People say the 7m head gasket always blows out ive been hearing this from multiple people it is a re-occuring problem

[NashMan]

only if done not proper or motor is running right to begine with it will blow again

[Enraged]

again, not a reoccuring problem if you dont cheap out and fix it properly. people just slap a new stock HG in, reuse stock head bolts, and dont machine the head, and then wonder why it blew again.

do it right, with proper machine work, and new ARP bolts torqued properly, and it will be fine.

[mr_baboon]

People say the 7m head gasket always blows out ive been hearing this from multiple people it is a re-occuring problem

When I did my engine rebuild I decked the block and machined the head and replaced the stock headgasket with a metal one. It's still driving around Victoria at 18 psi daily, 2.5 years later.

Hey guys this is a lil off topic but in a little bit im thinking of picking up a RHD 1jz 1992 supra what are your views and may u give me some feedback on what should i do and is it worth picking a supra up and are they reliable and fuel efficient? and i am picking it up for daily driving

[Renthal]

Twin turbo? automatic?

anything can be reliable.. it all comes down to the history and how well it was maintained.
the 2J motors is one of the strongest and best motors toyota every made, but if someone neglected it and beat on it it's entire life it wont be reliable.
Compression check, accident report, K's, upgrades etc...

[Rx harnek]

well its a RHD and olny has 97000k's and its a 5 speed it prob has minor upgrades like filter boost guage and suspension and piping thats it but is it worth my 6000? and it is twin turbo

Anyone interested in a 4runner or know someone that might be?

88, Black, 22RE, IFS, 5spd, Very clean frame.
22RE Rebuilt 80,000km ago(no receipts)
Body is decent, not perfect but way better than most.
W56 Trans rebuilt recently, shifts great
Front suspension rebuilt recently
Newer front CV's
Newer Shocks
Heater core replaced
Brakes are good
Stock size Michelin tires on SR5 rims.
Sunroof/Removable top
Aisin Manual front hubs
New Battery
New Airfilter, Fuel Filter, Plugs, Cap/Rotor.


Bad, and il be totally honest here:

-High Km's, but in much better shape than most.
-Timing chain slap on startup for 1-2 seconds, will eventually need the guides replaced with steel ones (common 22RE problem)
-Pinion preload/bearing/seal need looking at in the rear end eventually (whines on deceleration)
-Windshield has silicone all around the seal and its cracked in two spots
-Rear springs are sagged but has lift blocks to compensate, it rides really smooth.
-Interior shows km's/age.
-Rear window is hard wired with a 3 way toggle but it works


$2500 firm.

im also helicoiling all 7 of the exhaust studs, so I had to buy a total of 12 helicoils, so I have 5 left over if anyone needs them. They are 7/16, just like the kit Driftmotion sells. Lordco has studs and nuts to match.

got to give a bit more then that for any clue on what it is as is were it is coming form ect

[Paradox]

tobys car is running!?

[Enraged]

indeed

got the wiring terminals, so i can rebuild the ignition harness. forgot to connect the wideband to the maft pro, and i should install my electric fuel pressure gauge...then just have to put 2 more wheels on it and i can get it out of the garage. and ryan has to fix the fuel filter

some other minor things like taillight module and horn, interior bits, etc, but its pretty much driveable now.

also, i dropped the spare head off at JB yesterday for a resurface and to install the new valve springs and seals. Once I get it back I get to helicoil the exhaust studs, and get to learn how to reshim the cams! should be interesting.

and the car will need a major detail, anyone have recommendations where to take it?

[Enraged]

anyone else planning on going to PacNW Supra Nationals this year? July 16-18 on the mainland. I want to go, it would be great to have a caravan of island supras going.

everyone just needs to bug ryan to try and get his car done in time.

[wes-harrison]

only have a few parts left if anyones interested...sold most of my small stuff all together to a guy named ken olsen with a silver pre-89 with all 89+ stuff on it...i got:

-Maroon drivers seat (89)
-running 7mge (300,000 km) but ran awesome
-mint set of sawblades with some nice burnout tires on them
-brand new kyb struts and intrax lowering springs

just tryin to clear out the garage so will pretty much take any offer on this stuff

[wes-harrison]

oh and i also got:

-Decent rad
-2 minty front fenders (white)
-rear bumper (white)

If you need the tool(s) for doing the shims I have them all. As well as shims (as I said before) Just call me if you need them. 2508576555

[Renthal]

heh i park in the same lot as ken olson..
he's got a nice silver supra that he babies
he drooled over my old red one :cry:

[Enraged]

wow, the head is already done, picking it up after work today.

and RYAN has to fix the FUEL FILTER

thanks Alex, what tools are they? going to be doing the shims on a desk, alot easier than in the car haha

[mr_baboon]

Its easiest to do the shims with the cams in (to avoid removing the cams over and over), so I've got the tool you need to push the springs down with the cam in allowing you to remove the shim.. I believe it's still in my garage. Once you compress the spring you juts pop the shim out with a small flat head. You'll also want a magnetic pickup tool.

[Island_Yota]

So I wanna get my car going. Still need ideas for a clutch, maybe il just get a cheap ebay one in and re use my flywheel till I can find an R154.

[mr_baboon]

buy driftmotions clutch and upgraded PP, its good.

[Island_Yota]

buy driftmotions clutch and upgraded PP, its good.

can't find.. for the W58?

all I see is ACT stuff.

[mr_baboon]

Oh... W58.... I'd ditch that asap... there's not very many good clutches for it since it breaks under power.

interesting sound i must say


interesting indeed could be a bunch of things sounds like bent vavle or shitty oil pump bad oil filter bloack paassge ect


is it down in power? rpm dependent



best thing to do is get screw drive and go along the vavle covrs tell you pin point the sound


all els fails you can just drive it over here and i can take a look at it

ps i hate head colds

[Enraged]

head $free
BBC valve springs $75
new valve seals $35
Helicoils $25
Ryans old cams $100
Machine work $237 (had to chamfer the head slightly to get the new springs in)
$472

not bad, the machinist said the head was in really good shape. only thing is I noticed scoring on the cams, on the journals where they are clamped by the cam caps. how much scoring is too much? the caps and the head are fine, it's the cams I'm not sure of.

[mr_baboon]

Post a pic of the scoring Toby

the just need a light sand and there good to go i can do it for if you like

two of the journals, they are all similar to this. i know they can be fixed, but it might make the oil clearance too big. For #1 its 0.0014-0.0028, #2-7 is 0.0010-0.0037, max is 0.0051". i also don't want to ruin the journals on this head.

[NashMan]

were on cams is normal they just need light sand to take the high spots down they have been cheaked out by colt cams

i was going to run them but changed my mind and went big instead

[Enraged]

ill talk to the machine shop about polishing them, another option is to polish them then have them moly or teflon coated. i want to run them, and i dont want to pay $450 or whatever it is for BC cams... yet.

[mr_baboon]

Holy shit that's a lot of scoring. My cams didn't have nearly that much.. :S

And yes, don't sand them, clearance will potentially be both off and uneven == NOT good.

The two mechanics I'm sitting in the room with lol'd at those pictures.

[Enraged]

you now if JB does moly or teflon coating? i talked to IJ on supramania and he said they are fixable, and the coating can help bring the clearances back into spec.

[NashMan]

yea machine shops use dolphins lasers on there heads to fix stuff like this right

never dare use an abrasive ever

[TobyCat]

Anybody have a r154 clutch release fork I can buy off of them?

Also, the scoring isn't that bad. The supra's have a really soft metal coating on the cams..that's very similar to how mine and Alex's looked. I used some scotch bright pads on both. Don't know if that was good or bad for them though!

[NashMan]

nope sorry not me


wow i never knew this stuff was still up cool none the less

http://paradoxdesigns.org/VIS/index.htm

[Paradox]

yup i kept it all on there. :)

[Enraged]

[Renthal]

[NashMan]

might have a sludge build up there mr chris since you let your car sit and stuff


might wana like add in a cleaner or some thing maybe and drop the oil again

[TobyCat]

I think that's a solid idea. I'll just change the oil/filter again this weekend.
