Just want to get er done so I can drive it again, i've been driving my gf's sundance lately and it jsut doesn't boost the same
I'd like to meet people on the island with supras; ever since I bought mine i've started to notice lots of them. It would be cool if we could set up a meet closer to summer when people are finished their winter projects.
cheers

You wouldn't use a 2mm instead of a 1.2mm unless there was a reason....The thicker the HG, the lower your compression will be.

I run a 1.4mm titan motorsports one, but my head & block were both machined a good amount and I still have over 9:1 comp with it

I wouldn't worry about that...Our stock ignition system is fine for the power goals you have in mind - It's a hell of alot better than either the 1J or 2J setup, that's for sure...Just make sure to choose the right plug and gap it right

I'd trust our stock ignition for over 600rwhp anyways....The coilpack is VERY strong

Just because it's stock, doesn't mean it's bad....It's actually better than alot of the other options, even aftermarket in my opinion

well see i under stand what you mean

but really you don't judge an igntion just cause of blow out

i might get set of msd coils and 2 box's off a guy on supra maina so that be pretty pimp if i can

but if nto i just may run nogly plug wires and hks unit

cause if i was to doteh holes msd thing it whould cost me some money 6 coisl and 2 box's will add up fast

[NashMan]

well chad's supra will be back soon going to go pull the motor on sunday so this should be some fun i think she will take me about 15 to 20 mins to rip here out and droped into the truck and then drive it to my house and have some fun wiht it

and find out if his ring lands are dead

Well I'm pretty sure you'll see no difference
But also remember you're going from a 57 trim to a pte 67, you can't compare the before & after on the ignition system now anyways

i reallylooking for thottel respones that what igtion system to me are for

[Enraged]

a friend of mine from school is looking for a MKIII, NA or Turbo, for around $3k. Body doesnt matter much, just needs a good engine. OR he needs the complete engine, bellhousing, wiring, ecu, rad, gauge cluster, etc from an NA or turbo. anyone have any leads?

[NashMan]

nope i hvae mk 2 thou

[islandsupra]

If I can part mine out he can have that shit for 3 grand.

[Enraged]

ya, he wants one thats unmodified, prefereably granny driven. hes goin to use it as a daily driver, then eventually sway it into 4x4 frame hes building

[65-289CI]

i am greg and i am stinky

[NashMan]

yes yes you are but any ways


i sold my blitz boost cause now i not goig ot be runing no2 since it will be pain to fill and i chould do the power goal i have on just boost alone

i think of runing mixed gas and tune ti for that so i cna push big boost wiht out runing c16 cause that whould suck

[65-289CI]

damn owned by the logout button i guess... grr....

[islandsupra]

is anyone here interested in my door panel speaker enclosures?

I want new snowboard boots

[Enraged]

details?

[islandsupra]

what details?
They are fibreglass and MDF, they replace the map pockets - no modification required just unscrew the map pocket and screw/bolt these on. They are sealed nicely and about 0.3 cu.ft each... great for a 6.5" component woofer driver or will even work wonders for a 2-way or what have you.

The midbass clarity and response is much MUCH cleaner and deeper with your woofers/speakers in a sealed enclosure than a free-air/baffled. It did wonders for my set-up.

BUT I am going to start selling stuff from my car, and I am definitely going to try and get rid of the supra. These won't up the value of the car at all but they cost me a lot of money.

150 bucks and you can have them... or else I'll put them up on supraforums in the next few days.

EDIT: here's a picture I just took. They have cutouts for the doorlight, molded to fit under the dash fine, don't interfere with the clutch and the glovebox opens fine with the door closed.

One more thing I forgot, these were really built for a 3-way component system, which is what I have right now in my car up front. 6.5" in this enclosure, 4" in stock spot and 1" tweets in the pillars.
For the right price I can include my CDT Audio CL-643 component set and Sat-Net 4th order elliptical crosovers

[Enraged]

wish i hadnt just won an auction on ebay for more cnc mill parts, otherwise id buy them...

[islandsupra]

well if you want them, I can hold on to them for a bit. You've done the same for me in the past with the 3-peice

Also, Fobidden Audio quoted me almost 400 to make the same things... it cost about 150 in materials alone and about 2 weeks to make them.

[islandsupra]

F it, I'll give you guys first dibs on my gauges/pillar pod too if anyone wants.

Autometer black-faced gauges and a black lotek triple gauge pod. I also have 2 autometer gauge cups.

Guages are boost, a/f, egt, water temp. and oil pressure. I have the sensors for everything, but no nylon hose for the boost gauge (you can buy them at lordco or wherever for a few bucks).

Not sure how much to ask, depends if someone wants them all or just a few or w/e. Again... if nobody here wants them in the next few days I'll post them up everywhere else. Just givin you local yahoos first dibs.

[Enraged]

dont hold them for me, i need to buy a boost gauge still...

[arturiusma7]

did u just sell all ur gauges toby..

[Gen4TurboCiv2]

Ask Ryan about his new toy...
