Bob, I've got money for you and can pick up the swaybars any time, give me a call and we can set up a time, 888-9119 is my cell #. The sooner the better :D

Sorry guys, we are superbly busy trying to work out some stuff right now so the supra is on the back burner. Also, trips to the supra are very limited with no wheels to get there, so everything is still installed on the car. I will try to get on Bobs ass to get that stuff for you both.

Matt6003 07-29-2005 11:43 AM

Sure, thanks. Unlike Reuben, I live close by, and I dont mind taking him down to the car if he needs a ride, its pretty close to my house too.

So it was a pretty good long weekend... for my car.
I got the hardpipes in the mail middle of last week and put them on thursday night after work. The cermamic coating on the upper pipes turned out half decent and all in all they fit well.

This weekend Ryan also was a great help, he used his arms/hands to reach the knock sensor wire that I could not (for the life of me) reach so we fixed that, advanced the timing a bit and backed out the screw on the AFM. Thanks a lot for the help dude!! Also hooked me up with a polished turbo heat shield ( wanted to do mine for a while but I am just so lazy).

Also picked up the triple pillar pod from Bob along with black faced boost, egt, a//f, water temp and oil press. gauges from Bob.
I got the pillar and gauges all installed tonight after work and everything seems to be working great so far. I forgot to grab the sensors for the oil and water gauges so those will be installed once I get the parts I need. The picture of the guages is horrible, but it was dark out and I didn't feel like messing around with my camera.

As well yesterday on the way home from Victoria I picked up a fender and front nose peice from Shane (for a great price I might add) Thanks a lot for holding on to those for me bro'!! So I am expecting to do all the body work this weekend.

The car is finally starting to come along a little ways here.
A new set of tires is ordered tonight so I can finally get those wheels on - hopefully this weekend as well. And a new clutch will be on the way soon, as soon as I can decide what to get.

After this, I am done with the car for this year!! I dunno what next year will bring... I am still contemplating selling it but find that I just keep spending money on it and fixing it. It's just too fun to drive. We'll see what happens I suppose.

More pics to come once I get some more work done :)

islandsupra 08-02-2005 10:37 PM

oh yeah... and I'm now hitting fuel cut at approx. 13.5psi :)
But tonight I went out to test the gauges and go for a quick drive and I actaully hit 15psi!! I guess tomorrow I take out a washer or 2.

Paradox 08-03-2005 12:17 AM

haha nice man. i thought you told me you'd never put a pillar guage pod on tho? :p

owell looks dope, shiney atleast

as for the turbo heatshield, ditch it, doesnt do anything hehe. i shined mine up then painted it and then just decided it was of no use.

if you can hit 15psi without fuel cut, why not? haha

NashMan 08-03-2005 04:14 PM

just leav it at 15 psi and call it day you knwo you don't have to push t every time to 15 you know

and the day you want 15 psi you wonte have it

NashMan 08-03-2005 07:16 PM

i have piced a turbo people

now all i got to do is buy it


and then all teh fun will begain all over again

Enraged 08-05-2005 10:25 PM

ryan, with 500+ rwhp, you will spin the tires no matter what.

personally, i would choose the gt35, then buy some drag radials.
