hey guys, thought i'd come on here, and show my pasion for my car, which i may get flamed from a fair bit of you users, but each to there own i guess :(

well my Supra use to be 7MGE + Auto, and at 1500kg's shes a heavy tug for the poor old head gasket blowing 3.0L.

so i scrapped her, brought a halfcut with a 1jzgte, R154 manual, and dump the lot into my supra, current mods on her are as follows, 3inch dump, Hi-flowed and Steel exhaust wheels on the CT12a's, Modded ECU, Heavy duty clutch, racing flywheel and Pressure plate..

now onto the other mods i have done myself, Tein Dampening suspension all round, front rear Mine Strut bars, Mine rear sway bar, 2 3/4inch exhuast hi-flowed cat to a 3inch cannon.

Paint job is a MAzda Deep purple Mica metallic, T front bar, and 17inch slighty dishy wheels, Typr R racing seats, and no A/c :(

enjoy the picture im gonna get alot more done today, as this one has my headlights removed when i was trying to get the projector FD style ones to fit (still in trial).

anyways enjoy and i hope not too much flame cos im a toyota boy ;)

best regards,

Casey.

    • Hi all, I’ve just finished fitting the timing belt on my RB25, following the standard procedure: rotate the crank twice, release the tensioner, then tighten it down. The belt feels tight, and you can see that clearly in the picture below I’ve heard some people say it’s actually better for the belt to be slightly loose rather than too tight, as excessive tension can lead to snapping. So that’s in the back of my mind. What I’m seeing is this:  • At idle, the belt looks fine.  • But when cranking and especially when revving (around 3–4,000 RPM), there’s a momentary flap/flex or flicker in the belt, which I’ve tried to capture in the video. So my question is — based on what you see, is this slight belt movement something you’d consider normal, or am I just being OCD? Could this amount of movement cause sync issues? Or is it just a harmless bit of flex under load?   from what I know belt flap and flex is expected when crank spins up and pull cam with it Would appreciate any thoughts or similar experiences.     IMG_7656.mov IMG_7657.mov
    • I've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).
    • Lol.. but then.. always come back to a JDM..
    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
