for sale PHR street torque turbo manifold 2JZGTE
Chris Bailey replied to Kearney's topic in Parts for Sale
Probably means won’t fit a 2JZ-GE -
No UK pump fuel. The 1.00A/R is a happy medium, makes full boost circa 4000rpm and pulls hard all the way to the Rev limit (7500rpm) and on our setup it holds 641lbft from 4500rpm to 7500rpm.

Running a Precision 6466DBB GEN2 1.00A/R making 853bhp/641lbft (flywheel) on pump fuel. Had the turbo around 5 years and had zero issues between 660bhp to the current 850bhp.

My journey to and from work is delightful at the minute, a journey that would take me 45/50 minutes now only takes me 35 minutes!

Think SRD know a company who can do it. Sure they had some custom ones made for a customers car a while back.

I’ve recently purchased a pair of Maxxis Victra Sport VS5’s, they get a better dry and wet rating than the Michelin Pilot Sport 4’s and worked out £50 a corner cheaper for my GT86. I am very impressed with them so far, grip has vastly improved over the Toyo Proxes T1R’s I had before! They were awful tyres. Might be worth considering the Maxxis, have a look at the reviews and make your own mind up

Is your end goal to hit 1000bhp? You won’t make that with 1000cc injectors.
-
Not too bad, yeah 265/35/18 at the front. It does follow the camber in the road and does tramline a little. But I guess that’s to be expected with a 265 front tyre.

We run 315/30/18 on a 11.5J ET49, tyre sits flush with the rim and arch. Mitchlin Pilot Sports.

Why do you need to build the motor? Get a compression check done, if all looks healthy it will be fine for 700bhp. Obviously these engines are getting tired now, but having said that if it’s been well maintained and seems healthy then you’ll be fine.
-
About 2500-3000 miles a year over here! Mind you the car hasn’t been out in about 2-3 months. Just sits on trickle charge in the garage.

Running a 4” Mishimoto intercooler at 850bhp

Lovely car, looks a great spec!

Other things also come as a priority... mortgage, kids, bills etc etc etc... I doubt many people are in a position to be buying car parts when other things come before.

This guy sounds well dodgy!

Awesome car this! Still one of my favourites

As above, Jamesy runs an airport parking company. As far as I’m aware though it’s a meet and greet situation. I know dad has used it in the past a few times and never had an issue.
-
Oh wow! Such a shame. I wonder if the engine still runs and is ok, it was a built engine aswell. Probably still worth a few ££££.

Help finding E.T Alloy to fit 305.35.18
Chris Bailey replied to GreekSupra's topic in mkiv Technical
A 305 tyre will fit nice on a 11.5J rim, with an offset of around ET50. This is a similar setup to what we run, although we have a 315/30/18 tyre on a 11.5J rim and the tyre sits flush with the rim and rear arches. Although we have our rear arches rolled to accommodate the wheels and tyres and also allow abit of “squat” in the suspension. -
You won’t be disappointed, got the SRD Stage 3 fitted for around 3 years. No issues whatsoever and currently 850bhp/640lbft. Great package, especially with flappy paddles!

Good news the new supra is a badged fake.
Chris Bailey replied to herbiemercman's topic in Supra Chat
This is so boring now IMO, we all know it’s mainly a BMW. So what, get over it. Being it’s mainly a BMW doesn’t make it a bad car at all. -
I know of a couple of B58’s engine running 700+bhp. One is in an M140 and the other is in a M240. - - - Updated - - - I know of a couple of B58’s engine running 700+bhp. One is in an M140 and the other is in a M240.

Absolutely, someone’s already built a B58 engine from the new supra for 1000bhp, when you think the car has only been released for around 2-3 months I’d say that’s good going. SRD are already knocking on the doors of 600bhp as are many other tuning shops. BMW always under quote the power figures as we all know and they quoted 330-340bhp. They actually make between 360-380bhp.
