I went on a Supra forum and posted a wanted ad for some MKIII parts... The prices some people ask just blows my mind.

Anyway, among the things I've purchased recently (from those who ask reasonable prices), still waiting for delivery:

- Blue driver's side seatbelt guide
- Clutch pedal (still looking for M/T brake pedal, PM me if you're selling one)
- Beech performance short shifter, used in good shape
- Power window master switch - AUTO lettering is good, still has UP switch. Got two, one for a spare.


Spent a little more time, I'm only doing about a couple hours per week so far.

Mainly I'm spending my time reading up on forums, looking parts, etc. I have plenty of time to build the car when I know what I want.

Got it up on jackstands so I could fit under.

The car had been accumulating dirt in the paint. It is in too good of shape to leave unprotected. 10 years sitting means no wax, etc. Gave it a little bit of a wax job, by hand. I need to buy an orbital buffer.

No real progress on the Supra since last time. I did progress towards things that will help the Supra soon.

My air compressor at home is a 55 gallon. It handles tools great, although I don't actually own any. Got myself a 1/2" 800ft/lb impact wrench, with an impact socket set (deep wall sockets, wobble sockets, and extensions). I don't like borrowing tools from people, and this one is my #1 used air tool.

Tested it out by taking off the wheels in about 2 minutes.

Also pulled the rest of the exhaust off

To clear some clutter from the garage, we built a shed in the backyard. I have a great waterproof storage solution now. Soon I will have the garaged sorted and cleaned up, the engine will have space for rebuild.

Subscribed. My Supra was definitely the most fun car I have ever owned. Mine put down 430 hp with the Lexus V8 AFM and Mazda RX7 550 cc injectors, a down pipe and HKS exhaust, Toyota CT26 turbo with a 60-trim wheel upgrade and an adjustable fuel pressure regulator.



They are certainly easy to get power from.

You are definitely doing this the right way. One recommendation I have is to use ARP head bolts rather than head studs. If you use studs, you cannot remove the cylinder head with the engine in the car. I ran 17 pounds of boost in my MKIII for years on ARP headbolts with no issue.

Excited to see what you do with the car. I still think the MKIII is one of the most fun cars you can buy. If you have any 7M-GTE questions, feel free to ask-away; I've been through my own engine as well as helping friends with theirs.

Very interesting note on the head not coming out with studs.

Your car was a definite looker, that engine bay is very clean. I have essentially the same plan for getting the build going, lexus AFM, 550cc injectors, AFPR, etc... I'll keep this thread updated and your input will be appreciated! The build is starting from the ground up, so machining the block will be the first part of the engine build to get money thrown at it.

I am guessing your CT-26 was one of the older driftmotion 60mm upgrades? They're only going 57mm on their upgrades nowadays, although I am guessing the 57 can handle 17PSI pretty reasonably. I think using the CT-26 is the best option, especially here in CA, where police may be interested in what's under the hood. An upgraded CT-26 shouldn't raise any suspicions, especially with some factory heatshields.

Unfortunately, an item was dropped on my targa top which scratched it pretty badly. Sometimes people make mistakes, and this ones being paid for by the top scratcher herself, my girlfriend

Parts gone to paint: targa top, rear bumper

Body shop destroyed my headliner.... VERY upset.... The owner is a friend of mine and he reassured me time and time again that nothing would happen to the headliner.

On their coin, they've sent the top to an upholstery shop who is redoing the headliner and rewrapping the sunvisors. Body shop is also installing new targa top seals for the inconvenience.

Top and rear bumper are painted.



SOON:

I'm in discussions with the owner of a white 89 Supra. It has a good interior with uncracked dashboard and variety of other parts my car needs - Donor Supra.

The build is starting from the ground up, so machining the block will be the first part of the engine build to get money thrown at it.
The Lexus AFM and 550 cc injector was pretty much a revelation in the Supra world...the 24% increase in size of the Lexus V8 MAF over the Supra MAF, combined with the 25% increase in injector size (440cc to 550cc) was a perfect match, not to mention it keeps the engine bay looking stock for CA smog checks. When I took mine in for smog every two years, I would swap in the original downpipe and remove the AFPR and it would pass visual and the sniffer everytime. (I would not have used the AFPR unless my car needed it--it was the only immediate giveaway that it wasn't stock.)

I am guessing your CT-26 was one of the older driftmotion 60mm upgrades?
Mine was rebuilt and upgraded by Performance Techniques. (turbocharged.com)
I think the new 57 trim wheel is more efficient than the Garrett 60 trim my car had, so I think that is a better way to go anyway.

Car looks fantastic, reminds me of my friend's white 91 hardtop/sunroof that I wanted really bad, haha. Looking forward to watching the progress.
