jevansio Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Lol yeah, all that tuning must be burning an oil and plugs hole in your pocket is it not lol. It's gotta be 4 oil changes & 5+ sets of plugs in the last 4k miles!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 Hmm, i wonder if i could switch the cars with you the next time you fancy changing the oil. Would save me the bother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Should be getting done every 1k That was 4 months ago now, so I'm guessing time will dictate the next service rather than mileage I do need to check my spark plugs, although the intermittant issue that made me think that has since stopped happening.

Homer Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 No gearbox, Daryl? As a afterthought... maybe Have you chosen the engine? Yep, thanks to a recommendation from Jamie I've found the guys to supply everything and do the fabrication work & install Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Ooo good stuff. Whats the ETA then? Figures? ETA -possibly this year. figures, not sure whether you mean BHP or cost. It should cost £5k for the full conversion inc mapping, that will bag about 400bhp, with the option of another £2k with the SC should make between 500 and 520bhp.

Sorry was meaning power but the drop in price looks good! 400hp, not to mention the torque. Is the SC going in? I'm guessing it will be a torque monster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you gone for the 5.7 litre SBC ?

I'm guessing it will be a torque monster No SC at the first stage - just want to get it running and any reliabilty issues sorted Have you gone for the 5.7 litre SBC ? I have been using Summit racing in the US for parts for the Camaro, very good service and price Yep, LS1 5.7. Summit are the ones I've been using to price up parts, have dealt with them before and agree the service and prices are excellent. Just makes me realise just how ridiculously expensive parts are for Supra engines and drive trains. US motor parts are a different world of prices.

Mike M Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 In the short term, Fix all the brakes, Fix the wheel alignment, Respray front bumper, wings, bonnet, and drivers door, Get the stock wheels overhauled, Get the stem seals done. Long term, Would love a small single turbo, would love to rip out the entire dashboard and send it away for a flocking, Would love an entire respray, Would like the engine overhauled at some point too for piece of mind. Getting ready for a house move is making me want to sell it thats just giving in really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
