Small little update. I got some 10an nylon hose for my oil stuff. I chose this because its a lot more flexible, easier to put together, and wont destroy my hands with frayed ends. Plus it was on sale




















Also in other news, I have a new rack coming my way and some Brembo rear brakes

RedPhoenix

Well I got a steal on a new rack






A summit order came in with 4an, 8an, 12an nylon braided hose, some random fittings and a free 5 hour energy...



Made some lines, one for the cooler is half done




Turbo oil feed, went through the frame rail and I need to add fire sleeving near the turbo for it.





Oil thermostat will probably end up around here.



Brembo Rear calipers, rotors are on the way. Need to get them repowder coated.




Current 3/5/12

Alright well sorry for the long pause between updates. The last month or two of school has gotten really busy and I kept changing my mind with stuff on the Supra... but for now this is what is happening.


Brembo 2 pots for the rears




Wilwood 4 pots for the front ( I am in the middle of making a hybrid of all the kits out there and using Cobra 13" rotors instead of modified C4 Vette rotor like one of the kits do)



Modified the cross beam to allow the radiator to lean forward. I needed extra clearance on for the turbo stuff and I figure if I modify the hood right, it will promote better cooling.







Lots of wiring has been happening. I loomed most of it, but I forsee stuff changing eventually.




MS3X is done, firmware flashed, and reads from the laptop.



Made a mounting surface from 6061 to hold injector 50w resistors and ignition modules (for 2 wire COP).



Made one for the MS3x and PLX Wideband






PLX Gauge mounted in the cig lighter hole



Will be adjusting my alternator for tension with this setup.






Oil cooler is mocked up with zipties until I build brackets. The oil system is completed however.


Got a free 89+ bumper and nose piece.





Stayed Tuned!

I just installed a PLX wideband on the duece recently. I like it very much so far. The reading appears to update faster then the Innovate, AEM, and Prosport units I have used in the past.

RedPhoenix

Good to hear. How did you wind up mounting it? I made a to make a bracket because there was no way of mounting it at all.

Bump. Don't want to see this thread get lost.

Its sad to look at the dates when I last posted. As always we all get busy and that is the story here. Been working on the wiring and I keep getting discouraged because I was not satisfied with all the stock junk laying around. So I ordered a whole body rewire kit (common for hot rods) and I gutted all the wiring out of the Supra.

For the engine


Whole lot of WTF!


Interior dash wiring. I left the wires that travel to the rear of the car for now... oh and the door wiring. The rest of the wires on the driver seat are for headlight retractors, power mirrors, wipers, etc... all the needed stuff.



Enjoy! I promise I am back in action to work on this thing.

hoy crap how much did all that removed wire weigh?

RedPhoenix

Quick update before work. I know I have updated in months.. Sorry

Gas Tank Removed...



Sump - SS 304 - Why? cause E85. Two 1/2 NPT Bungs and I relined it with POR15












Cam Sensor Housing machined for a clean look...






Wiring and more wiring. I removed ALL stock wiring. I kept only the stock switches and functions and everything works so far.. Windows, retraction for headlights, etc... Obviously this needs to be finished... but I didnt want to clean it up with everything not working yet.








MS3x functions




A very pathetic pop and burble on starter fluid to see if the ignition works...
