hi is it possible to drive a single turbo kit with the oem j-spec ecu? small one or something like that. is it possible to plug 550ccm injectors to avoid burned pistons? thank you

buy both on the black market, let them grow and arrange a fight in a pit. but dont forget your camera for a small video

lol it is in stuttgart, like the mercedes museum sorry ;-)

hi dont go to small i have 9,5x19 et25 with 265/30/19 in the back and 8.5x19 et40 with 235/35/19 on the front. h&r springs with 35mm only had to lay down the edges in the back a little bit and it fits perfect take a look http://img183.imageshack.us/img183/6711/img3613800erta6.jpg 9x19 is not enought, the original j-spec wheels habe 9x16 and the eu spec has 9,5x17, both arround et50 9,5x19 et 25 is the same like 10,5x19 et50, only with smaller wheels, the et25 wheel is smaller but it has the samed distance to the edge like the et50

this it how it was when i bought her in england http://img104.imageshack.us/img104/2374/supra1pf5.jpg

now some pictures with daylight http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/9527/garage800erle2.jpg http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/7108/img3616800erwr1.jpg http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/7987/img3611800erav7.jpg

now nith the new paint http://img506.imageshack.us/img506/8383/supraschwarz2uk0.jpg

ok, wheels for the back arrived. h&r springs installed, no photoshop this time ;-) hope the springs will lay down a bit more in some months. the new paint in black will be done next week (i hope) the et25 wheels are working fine!! http://img79.imageshack.us/img79/1558/supra1bl5.jpg http://img47.imageshack.us/img47/9440/supra2ul3.jpg http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/9245/supra3tk5.jpg http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/2357/supra4ux7.jpg http://img119.imageshack.us/img119/3346/supra5ze6.jpg http://img119.imageshack.us/img119/4134/supra6te5.jpg

ok i understand, my plan is to put a 100 cell cat in place of the 2nd cat. only for the eye. i know some garage who have really old machines to test when you have to pass the tüv exhaust co2 test. they mostly give you the passed test without making so much trouble about the results i thought maybe the decat pipes have a better flowing, but if the flow is the same and only 5mm difference i will cut it on my own. or do you have a adress for cheap 3" decat pipes? thank you again!

thanks! one question. why buy expensive decat pipes when most of them just have 2,5 inch. original is arround 60mm i guess, so its not the biggest win. wouldnt it be the same when i cut the cats out and burn a 60mm pipe in the original downpipes? or are the oem pipes much worse?

really cool article!! if this is ok for you, i will copy it with your name to our german mkIV homepage

hi i need more power in my j-spec tt. everything is stock right now, engine is fine 70k miles, auto. so here is my plan: i want to replace the whole exhaust system and fit in a 100 cell cat. where is the best place for it? best where the first cat is, or the 2.nd? do i get all the downpipes in one of your uk online stores? do i need the restrictor ring when i fit the 100 cell cat in the place where the first cat was? (near the turbos) what is the best to to with the exhaust system?? or should i leaf the first turbo at its position? catback should be a blitz spec r. will this be really loud with the 100 cell cat? if yes, would a tanabe exhaust be the better choice? i dont like my neighbours smashing stones at me, when i arrive in the evening hours. walbro fuel pump and some new sparks plugs and a fuel cut defender. is a open air filter really usefull? on my point of view it only sucks the hot air from the engine. i want to go for 1,15 bar with the restrictor ring. is this all i need??? and how much bhp could be possible? does anybody know any drag race time with this setup in an auto supra? i also want to install a gauge for the exhaust gases temp. to check if the engine gets enought fuel under full load. or would a lambda control be the better choice?( more expensive) thanks for your help!!! eddie

hi i have a question. we have to pay 28% taxes on imported car parts from the usa (9% import taxes and 19% normal taxes). i read something about that the uk dont have to pay any taxes when buying stuff from usa. is it possible that one of my buddys buys some usa parts and take them back to germany after i visited him?? thank you

i will make some new pictures when the new wheels for the back arrived!

new photoshop arrived http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/6199/felgen1et9kopielb7.jpg

the car will get new paint, so its ok if the body gets some work. the calculator iss really fine. here in germany some drivers have 11x19 with et52 and it fits, just with layed fenders

i have a wheel calculator for the supra. its an exel sheet. this sheet says yes. its only 9,5x19 et 25, the same like 10,5x19 et50 do you need the wheel calculator??? i can upload it here is the first photoshop cant wait to get the car black!!! http://www.japancivic.de/supa.jpg

yes i know, but the weather only allows to make the mess, not to clean it

hi my new weheels arrived today. the 35mm h&r springs are here in my garage but its to cold to swap them the wheels in the back will be changed, they did send me the wrong ones. i ordered 9,5x19 et 25 but i did get only 8,5x19 et45. they will send me the right ones for the back in 2nd of january. the new ones will be 4 cm larger. the car will get new black paint in january! http://img329.imageshack.us/img329/7636/felgen1et9.jpg http://img376.imageshack.us/img376/9969/felgen2sd1.jpg http://img107.imageshack.us/img107/5126/felgen3cg8.jpg

sure volk is much better, but i dont drive professional races and im not willing to pay 4000k€´s for some wheels i dont really like. i prefer 19" wheels because of the look. i know the handling is better with 18" wheels. my supra is stock, maybe it gets a bpu tuning and thats it. some pics would be nice because im not sure if this is the right design for it. im going crazy with searching the right wheels!!! i will call rial tomorrow and see what price i get for the 11x19 daytona race. @peter die felgen sind mit schweizer gutachten, haben die traglast, et und felgengröße eingetragen. mein tüv mann meint das würde er dann eintragen
