hey everybody. i went to one of the first CSR meets at QS&L over the winter (i was in the silver MKIII Supra), but i dont really post much on this forum. so i just thought i would stop by and post a little update.. ..shortly after that meet i blew my HG . i decided to take on the task of replacing it myself. well i got all of that done about a month and a half ago. i went to start it up with a loose ground wire and blew my ALT Fuse which in return melted my ignition wires... got all that fixed, now it cranks but wont start. i think i have some sort of timing issue. so im working on that. enough of my story, time for pics. these are the most recent ones i have (a few weeks old) i got the pinstripes off the sides (still workin on the nose and hood) and some clear turns. SPECS as it sits: -87 Turbo 5sp Supra -3" exhaust w/ hi-flo cat and N1 tip -Cooleze intake pipe w/ K&N filter -Custom hard pipes -SAFC2 -other minor things (boost gauge, clear turns etc...) -MBC set @ 15psi, so im sitting right aound 300rwhp. now, PLANS: -FMIC -Walbro 255 -550/680 injectors -AFPR -some type of WB -FCD (have, just not installed) -LEX AFM or MAFT Pro -Some fatter shoes out back -some other little things to help it run better and the pride and joy of my build up... SP63 and a picture of it next to my head as a good comaparison i will try and come back and keep everybody updated. hopefully you see me around. Thanks for looking! Adam

Yeah, really, great looking car and even better project...WOW!
That's quite the project to take on, a blown head gasket is a pain in the ass, hope you get it all shaken down and fixed soon. I'm having similar issues as of late, I feel your pain, it's all worth it when you take that first drive after it's done though. Nice!

A friend back in HS had a car like that. I never knew much about cars back then, especially Supras for that matter. Looks like a nice project ahead of you.
