what it set you back for wiring costs if you dont mind me asking?

ive gota get the 20v wired up, thinking of doing it myself, but its gona be a massive job haha

$400, but i'm getting a bit more done...

no heater/aircon etc, but we are using the exitsting carby lines into the fuel tank and running a hilux pump to an undercar surge tank, then my old 33 pump to the motor...

also having the loom extended to fit inside the car

Yeah I have driven my friends N/A Supra.

3lt inline 6 with a Getrag 6 speed.

I call BS. I don't remember seeing any N/A poopras that came out with getrags from factory. They all came with W58 5 speed boxes. Clunky as shit... but they take a beating, kinda like 300zx boxes I guess, all that power and weight so they gotta overengineer the bits inbetween so nothing snaps.

This says the SZ-R had a 6 speed post 96

Not really. They're just the optioned one.

SZ = NA

SZ-R = Optioned NA

RZ = TT

RZ-R = Optioned TT

I've just got the SZ with a 5 speed. Mine came with optioned turbo brakes though :P Pulls up nice.

thought all supras had at least 4 pot brakes cause they so heavy

even the older models do i think

depends, after 1996 they got the option of bigger brakes on N/A's... beofre that they were 2 pots in front and 1 pot in the rear. most often if brakes are redone on earlier models guys put turbo brakes on the front as they're easier to find.

yeah, just thought weighing what 1500 odd kg that they would put at least 4 pots on front factory even on the NA's

but they must be ok for standard if they putting the 2 pots

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
