how much would you sell it for if you dont keep it?

Enraged 11-03-2004 01:12 PM

ive got meguirs aluminum polish, ill see how it does. i bought it for US$80. i was fuckin pissed off, now i dont know what im going to do with it... gotta talk to a freind of mine from school, he just got a TIG.

murray, if i can put together a cheap catch can and get him to weld it, would you want one too?

Paradox 11-03-2004 08:09 PM

how cheap?

i got my tranny flushed and fluid changed today, then got them to move the tranny cooler... the bastards put it right infront of my oil cooler! arggh..

they pulled off the oil pan and couldnt find any premature wear tho.

Enraged 11-03-2004 09:01 PM

i dunno, ill check it out. hopefully around $40, but ill have to talk to him and work out material costs.

Paradox 11-03-2004 09:11 PM

yeah im prolly in for that, if it is indeed $40

murray - unless he charges me a shitload for welding, the can will be $40. i just picked up all the supplies today. dimensions are 3" round x 6" tall, with brass 3/8" hose barbs and a 1/4" NPT drain valve on the bottom. any preference on placement of the hose barbs? i was going to place them 90 degrees apart at the top of the cylinder.

NashMan 11-04-2004 06:01 PM

hey muray you have not up dated the wedb site yet as in adding in chad ect

NashMan 11-04-2004 06:30 PM

NashMan 11-07-2004 06:49 PM

or hks pillow montes that whoudl be sweet it whoudl so finsh my spetion

well i gong to look at toys to buy it kidna hard now sinc ei have some much stuff now and junk it harder to upgrade bloody car :D

islandsupra 11-07-2004 07:02 PM

lol... I was joking about the wing!
Cam gears are an idea.

What about traction bars? Or even adjustable toe/camber bars if you are going to drop the supra even lower.
There's a place that makes both.. solid bars with heim joints.

Would be awesome addition to suspension if you haven't already gotten something made up.

Enraged 11-08-2004 12:54 PM

uh... $500 not enough? http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/products/lm1.php

US$349 for it, or US$429 with the stuff to datalog...

NashMan 11-08-2004 04:52 PM

meh don't need it right now

but i really am thinking fo gettign hls pillow ball monte thous that whould finsh my spetion quite well

Enraged 11-12-2004 12:52 PM

brainstorming ideas... i need a project for school, something not easy... im considering a paddle-shift system for a 5spd supra... maybe suspension... keep in mind, this is all fabricated/designed/built by me (aside from maybe a laptop to control things)...

Enraged 11-12-2004 01:17 PM

murray - catch cans getting welded together on monday or tuesday, ill send you a pic when i get them back.

islandsupra 11-12-2004 03:13 PM

probably not much difficulty (in design at least) but a nice tubular exhaust manifold would be sweet! ;)

I dunno, a paddle shift would be cool - they are tons of fun! can't really think of anything else off the top of my head.

NashMan 11-13-2004 06:07 PM

well the sub frames are out now

my car is pretty dame light now since i can lift the front end off the jack stands

oh now i got some work to do now traiing amrs are next i think i might do atube over type thing to keep it simple butt he hime joints got my eye
