Have you turbo'd the Supra?

No, I have a turbo MR2 now :banana: Picking it up on Wednesday.

Probably won't pass a roadworthy with the dodgy boost tap on it and I want an electronic one anyway. Will only put the boost up when I need it. 15psi for commuting to work is a bit silly :thumbsup:

meh..... just leave it up.... your foot is a boost controller.

i daily mine with stiff coilovers + running ~300rwkw.... you just need a brain... even when its wet its not an issue

kris... i see your tbc 300 and raise you another 23 :banana:

e85 is cheating...

I might finally have broken 200 in a few months...at all 4....

But now hamish has made me feel peasant in my happiness at it :thumbsup: damn u hamish!

Yeah, MR2 will go into the shop for a respray and while it's there I will sell the Supra.

CBF posting pics.. Basically it looks like crap. It's completely stock body in red with some fail spec 17" wheels.

Will soon be black, kitted, dumped and hopefully rolling on some nice jap wheels.

I don't know if I even want to leave it at 15psi though :P It's a stock turbo. What is it meant to be running? Like 6psi or some shit :)

I dunno.. I just don't like having a boost tap.. And a GReddy Profec B Spec II would look nice in the car I think.

saw a hot white MR2 in sydney (chatswood). Full honky spec with CE28N's in gloss red, bomex kit all around (snorkel n all that shiz), flared/rolled guards, dumped low and a thin offset red stripe from the front to the back with some typography designs next to it.

Was shit hot. Awesome use of colour, simple graphic design to break up big mass of white, and epic fitment and stance.

I think I had my first ever MR2 induced boner.

If you're going red, you should do the reverse with white accents.

I quite like the stock Red colour, looks nice.

Good to see it soon.

I've never been the biggest fan of red. Black is more my style :) A nice shiny black.

Man... I'm getting wood just over that description!!

Hmm... Flared guards... How would that look on mine? I'm going for a similar bodykit to last time but more aggressive rear bar and alternate front.

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
