lol, my ex gf has a CRX, maybe she can take em! and NO MKIV! damnit theres too many MKIV rim'ed MK3's out there. id want something better.... right now wheels i really dont care about tho. id rather spend the money on the interior or suspension or something.. it looks good as is i think and 235 is pretty wide in comparison to most vehicles.

235 is nice tire to run remmber you don't want to go to wide ya know ps most people put thous mag on for 2 resons one there cheap 2 they want to keep it stockish

245 in the rear is to big i find will take away from over stree that you want in toyota supra

235 was what i am thinking on getting for the front and rear

ps the supra's supention was not desighed whiht over set wheels in mind remmber that sure it whould do great for draging but that all i can think of


this is just my thoughts thou

so I blew my head gasket yesterday moments after telling
my family and friend's that there is nothing wrong with my car.
so it looks like i'm doing the n/a-t swap sooner then I wanted to.
what was the total in the end to do that nashman?

awww.... thats shitty!

you know, you can do a NA-T hybrid, using the NA block witha turbo head. ive seen guys on supraforums selling good heads for US$100, then there was a guy selling the intake manifold port matched, for US$60, an exhaust manifold for US$50, a stock turbo for US$150, etc. just look around, you might be able to get a good deal.

so I call some shops around town today about my BHG and
I get quoted some prices (1400-5500) so the last # is a complete
rebuild and after the lady says that I ask if I get a container of
vaseline with that to ease the pain, she says pardon. whatever
this is stupid I found a place in ont that will send me a 7mge with
a tranny to my door for $1700 inc, shipping. what a hassle!!!
oh and with most of these quotes the HG was $200 or a lil less
hahahahah

if there isnt any damage to the head or block, you could always try fixing it yourself. total cost would probably be around $5-600 if you go with a stock Toyota gasket and some ARP studs or bolts.

ask Nashman, he did it mostly himself if im not mistaken.

or do a turbo swap, you can get a stock 7mgte for around US$700.

arggh blow head gaskets suck... toyota should be paying for these sorts of things! be sure to report your BHG to the SOGi (?) database of other blown ones.... im not sure if thats still active, its basically just to bitch at toyota for not making proper head gaskets.


anyhow, sorry i missed the mini sprints guys. i might go to next months. ive still got tuning to do to my car.... greddy turbo will be here soon i hope, along with boost controller. that'll basically complete my engine mods for now (well perhaps i need a S-AFC.. hrmm) its hard not to keep blowing money on the damn car!

lol maybe

DAMNIT if i didnt have to get rotors, i could build my DP-back exhuast this week..... oh well.....

bird shit ALL over my car, so i told my parents that i can either take down their bird house (the birds leave then house and shit on my car, and shit as they are going in TOO) or they buy me a car cover so they are buyin me a car cover this week. Lordco has a Wolf 3 layer for $94, so im gettin that. then i can wash claybar and wax my car without fear of it getting too dirty overnight.

hehe shoulda gone for the BB gun dude

i cleared everything up with suprasport, and swapped my order for the JMBC to a test pipe. jeff didnt even have the parts in to make the JMBC's.

it'll be interesting to see what sort of power gains i get from the test pipe, hopefully lots!

also hope to see that damn LoTek pod too, did u guys have to take off the dash to get the vacuum hoses and wiring down to the firewall?
