I like them with the newer twin turbo wheels.

Well these wheels will most likely be going because:

A:The tires leak pretty bad
B:The tires are crappy and worn
C:I don't like the rims enough, they are almost just like the sawblades


So ill just sell these for 200$ or something to a mustang owner and then get a nice set of black 18s.

Yeah, those wheels look entirely too 70's American sports car. Fail.

Changed the supertech oil and filter out today for rotela and a pure one, and this is what the oil looked like,200 miles is all ive driven using this brand new supertech and filter:



Also i hooked up my prosport boost gauge today, and my max boost..4psi..4...I must have a huge boost leak someplace or the wastegate has issues..

Just think, Andrew. 4 psi and you're already having that much fun. Imagine how it'll be once you get everything sorted out. Then rub it in my face and make me hate my unboosted IS and crappy non-running FWD Celica a little more

yea..i mean the OEM boost gauge says im hitting about 6, which is OEM. But i plan to run 8 just to be safe as the car is the DD. Double the boost..i cant wait Im still shooting a TPS, coolant sensor and knock code. So the car STILL is not 100% happy.

Well the car got a passed smog sheet and is now registered . Ordered new intake manifold and throttle body gaskets, and a new CPS cover from partznet on here(was cheaper than ALL the supra vendors, go figure). Next step is the sound system, sadly the supra isnt equipped with the stock sound system like the celica, its rocking 1980s 4.5"s all around X.X. So ill be upgrading all 6 to infinity refs, along with a new single din deck with USB port, and finally over 600watts RMS is sub(s) in a ported box. Stay turned

Well its been about 2 months of driving and the car is still going strong! Of course, being a mk3, the hood is open at least once a week for some stupid little issue but overall the car has been good. The 3.5" exhaust still isnt on, but with gutted cats a and upped PSI the car pulls like hell.


Sadly I already want to upgrade. So the major upgrades are stopping and MKIV saving begins .

Yea I'm going to be shooting for a targa NA for under 10 grand. Then hopefully pick up a vvti GTTE from my importer and put that in afterwards(I really dislike NA lol). The reason i'm already done with the mk3 is that I don't like having the thought in the back of my mind of "what is going to break", i wanna be able to go get in my car and just DRIVE. As well as I LOVE the mk4 as its the mix between the 6gc look and the mk3s fury. I had ideas of getting an older impreza and putting a newer STIs heart in it, but after getting the truck, i have no need for awd in the snow.

its GTE not GTTE, you already come off as a newb! and why on earth would you install the VVT 2JZ-GTE? again another NEWB move!! the VVT engine is not as strong at the legacy ones. plus there is so much more wiring involved. if you are going to get an NA supra, just boost the NA engine. its so much cheaper and still very reliable! but hey spend 10,000 bucks when you dont have to

Smaay, I've been told the NA block is actually better for boosting. Something about oil squirters. Any truth to that?

I agree with the opinion that an NA Supra is just for looks. That's all my IS is good for. The NA 2JZ is just any other 220hp 6 cylinder. It's nothing special. But buying an NA auto mkIV is the way to go. They're so much cheaper.

It has 2 turbos right jeff? jk And please read:
http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthrea...ion-information

People seem to think the vvti is inferior, therefor instead of actually researching people just jump on the bandwagon and dont care. When in reality the VVTI is just as strong and has a much better powerband. Plus my importer gets vvtis and I can get the full swap for 2500, so im thinking roughly 4 grand in and running.

Idk if its BETTER richee, but with a TT hg it is fine for boosting, and has a higher comp ratio allowing you to run e85. But i want the vvti for the future .

Decided since it ill be a few years before I will have enough money to afford a mk4 I should continue to upgrade the mk3..So tomorrow some exterior changes will be enacted. Really Important Mk3 Shit will be occuring.

Oh and one of these:
