  1. Hi guys, very long time of no posting. By any chance; does anyone happen to have the pinout for the facelift clocks. I need to check a few things like fuel gauge and speed counter as they are not working.
  2. Give her a good servicing today.
  3. Back up for sale guys. Just give her a service/ oil change today along with a good polish and wax. [ATTACH=CONFIG]235064[/ATTACH]
  4. So after some thinking I've decided against selling. Next on the list is that ETS intercooler and I'm wanting to go with the Ford 8.8diff kit. Keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming updates.
  5. Thought I'd polish up the velocity stack and provide the old polished items a going over whilst I was on.
  6. *EDIT: 3/3/2020 back up for sale. Make: toyota Model: supra Year:1997 Facelift: yes MOT remaining: 11 months Service history: n/a Car's location: North East Modifications: list below Good bits: Amazing car, apart from the shell itself, nearly everything has been replaced with new upgraded parts, the power delivery is just simply amazing, and the car just looks stunning. Bad bits: a few light marks here and there due to age, the t56 gearboxes are quite noisy when bolted to a 2jz due to the gear tolerances, light flywheel and steel bell housing amplifing. (Joel Grannas has a video explaining here: ) however, once you know how to drive the car (not laboring the engine etc) then apart from the exhaust noise, it's really quiet. Would benifit massively from a 5"Ets intercooler to unleash its true potential power level. PRICE £39,995 Up for sale is my much loved 1997 big single turbo supra. The only reason for the sale is to help fund a career change. All parts fitted are relatively new or have very few miles on them, the engine was freashly built last winter so I think we only have around 3000-3500miles on it since ran in. It’s fully forged 3.1ltr with 87mm Manley pistons and rods. ACL Berings, ARP rod bolts and crank bolts, new gaskets throughout. Head was: pressure tested, hot cleaned , port and polished, new valve stems , GSC titanium retainers and springs. 264 inlet and exhaust cams and ARP headstuds. Titan crank pulley, PHR idler pully. PHR power steering res. It now has a brand new 6870 turbo, 4” virtual works down pipe ( with flex pipe fitted) and 4” virtual works midpipe, then whiftbiz 4” exhaust system. Twin turbosmart wastegates and turbosmart raceport Bov, brand new I.D 1700cc injectors and hypertune intake plenum. Hypertune high flow fuel rail and 90mm hypertune throttle body. Syvecs S6 ecu with toucan display. Flex fuel sensor with blend map. And brand new T56 6 speed manual gearbox with clutchmasters FX850 clutch. The cars comes with 4 x 18” weld RTS forged alloys rears have federal 595’s fitted And 2 x 15” weld RTS. Drag wheels with a set of Micky Thompson ET streets. The car made a healthy 824bhp on a highly restrictive 4" mishimoto intercooler. (as i stupidly overlooked this before our last mapping session). This could be a easy 1000-1100bhp car when fitted with a 5" ETS core. I also have a full 50ltr drum of E100r which will come with the car. The car was also featured in Japanese performance magazine with a 5 page write up. Any serious enquires or any additional information required then please feel free to contact me. Making a viewing will be far more beneficial, as I can go through the whole build and answer any questions. Thanks [emoji1303] 1997 supra twin turbo shell.

  7. Small update, the car has been off the road for quite a while. It tore some teeth off the crown wheel whilst doing a burnout for a photoshoot. We also found out that the diff we had fitted l wasnt the best match for the T56. Joel from grannas racing recommends a ratio of 4.1 to mate with the t56 as a perfect match, so we have now fitted the 4.08, which is far closer than the 3.7 we had fitted. So I think next year we will be going for the Ford 8.8 kit to make this car bullet proof! We also need to change out the 4" mishimoto intercooler for a 5"ETS as we found that the 4" is creating a massive pressure drop at the intake which caused us to top out at 824bhp. I'm confident with the 5" core and running E100r we should see good figures we'll over 1000bhp. We'll I'd like to hope lol.

    Diff talk.

    At the minute it's 824bhp but we have a massive pressure drop at the inlet due to the intercooler being too small. We need a 5" ETS to see its full potential.

    Yeah mate I have micky Thompsons Et Steets drag radials.

    Diff talk.

    It's a ridiculous easy swap mate, if you can build lego then you can do the conversion. Joel supplies all nuts and bolts so it's just a case of unbolting your old box then refitting your new kit. The only thing you need to think about is the hydrollic release bearing (which is also real easy). With this you just need to measure the clearance, its as easy as adding 2+2 which I got a value of 16 lol (jokes). The only thing with the T56 is its slightly more expensive than going 6 speed gatrag in the UK due to shipping and import taxes. But on the plus side its a brand new and more modern box.

    Diff talk.

    Hi mate, yeah I did have it up for sale a while back. The diff decided to fail quite a few month back also, so once I get it sorted I'll have to see if I want to sell up or keep it. In all honesty I'd rather not sell as I've put far too much work into it, but at the same time I need the funds to help with my pilot licence, so sort of stuck between a rock and a hard place.
