Project Future Motorsports Supra......
Ok guys and girls....
Our latest project, as some of you already know, is building a circuit monster. Designed to be road legal and within certain FIA approved specifications and rules. The development work has been going on for 10 months and the innitial planning around 7 months. In this post we will be covering the following: -Complete Start To Finish Engine Building, Tricks of the trade etc. -Engine Installation, running in period, tuning on dyno and mapping. -Fuel System Setup And Installation. -Complete Suspension Setup, Suspension kit, Bushes, Anti Roll Bars etc. -Roll Cage Installation. -Fire Extingusiher for Engine Bay (FIA Approved). -Interior setup and design. -Braking System including our very own Brake Bias System setup. And many more....... I will add to this list as i see fit and think of anything i might miss at the moment. We will cover EVERYTHING possible and give reasons WHY we do the things we have chosen to, what benefits are gained from it, advantages and disadvantages. The entire time we cover this we will post pictures and videos during start up, dyno and road tuning (after running in period). Tests and checks to be made during running in period, what to look out for etc etc. Testing at the tracks etc. Most of the work will be done in personal time but should be up and running within the next 4-5 weeks. Stay Tuned...... Bijal p.s..more pictures to come....

I love the HKS TO4Z turbo
![]() Mate has one on his 2.8 ltr R33 and its just mental on the road and in my opinion the best road turbo out there!! full boost by 3500 revs and makes 650 BHP at the hubs!! and for such an amount of power its not that big a turbo but the technology nowadays makes up for it. Should make for an interesting track car, what gearbox you going for, my friend has the OS Giken 6 Speed Seq box and it takes a little getting used to it but once you are you can bang through the gears with such a speed ![]() Mike |

i agree 200%, hks turbos are the best, not because its hks but the design and technology gone into it is just amazing. unfortunatley the profit margins are very low on hks products alone and hks turbo have had more money thrown into them during design stages therefore will be a slight premium to pay on them compared to the boost logic, horsepower freaks, and other similar own branded reasonably priced kits out there. thats why we sell so many hks turbo kits and the odd occasion greddy range to skyline and supra boys. our sales on hks turbos are not very huge here in the uk but for overseas they are good. and thats because people have paid that £400-£500 more of a premium and found that hks turbos are the best out there compared to the common cheap garrett aquivelent. unfortunatley hks and os giken dont make a gearbox for the supra hence we have not gone for them, we have asked both companies for help but they couldnt help. i can understand that, as the getrag 6 speed we have on our cars are stupidly strong anyway, but its nice to have a sequential box we have been doing some re-search on the box and found Quaife to be very helpful, i beleive they supplied the jgtc supras at one point in time. but in the meantime stock box will be more than enough with a good clutch and gearbox cooler
