tooquicktostop Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Well as most on here know I dont know one end of a spanner from the other so when I suggested I was going to attempt to fit some of the parts I have collected myself the doubters were out in force !! I fitted UK headlights (easy job as it happens for those who dont know but would like to try) HID kit, again very easy once you get the + and - the righ way around Cobra seat and sub frame with race harness, could not believe how heavy the stock seat was. This job took a couple of attempts as found fitting the sub frame first then attaching the seat the easiest way The rest of the work including Full decat exhaust Aux belt Carbon border bonnet New head unit strut braces TRD spoiler with carbon blade will be done by Dave (Supraloopy) next Monday, including a fresh MOT Its starting to come together for the coming season, hope it will make a good fun track car Oh and a PHR single kit is on the cards it the compression tests all all good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Good stuff Dean Most stuff is surprising easy once you have the confidence and a bit of knowledge how things should go together. Which single did you go for, the PHR one for the NA? If it is, might be worth having a word with Bromy as he has the same kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRALOOPY Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Is it worth having the single kit put on? why not just go TT lump. Also how much is one of these kits and what power would you hope to get? Keep those spanners out Dean as it will save you loads in the future and you will always be able to phone me if needed. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich8v Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 So you learnt how to use your spanner and now your moving onto a single kit. Your a quick learner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 So you learnt how to use your spanner and now your moving onto a single kit. Your a quick learner. I would not fit a single kit , not even close ! I am going for a PHR stage 1 against all my better judgement, I have after all told many an NA owner to forget it and go TT, for that reason I want something different, I quite like the idea of around 400 BHP from a single NA rather than a TT transplant BPU, one thing I do know the NA power will not be enough once on the track later this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRALOOPY Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I have just seen the price of these kits..LOL I'll be staying NA or going TT transplant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjy Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 It's all good fun getting your spanners out at the weekend! I also got some tools out to fit a new stainless manifold to my NA as my 1st cat was having a bit of a rattle. Sounds so much nicer now too and feels a little more free revving! Don't like this laying on my back malarky though! Much easier at work... lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changed my post !! it comes with this so will need an e manage or someting Powerhouse Racing Stage 1 Turbo Kit for 1993-96 Supra Non-Turbo Part # PHR Stage 1 MK4 NA PHR was the originator of the turbo conversion market for the Non Turbo Supra back in 1994, so why consider any other brand? PHR turbo kits are the absolute best quality parts you can get anywhere. If you want a low quality kit made insomeone’s garage in their spare time then you should not buy the PHR kit. Can anyone else offer you 11 years of work and knowledge on the MK4 Non-Turbo Supra? This generation II system utilizes the latest in manufacturing technology to bring you the highest quality at the lowest price. This PHR Stage 1 kit features: Extreme 2000 Black Heat Coated Cast-steel Exhaust Manifold for the Ultimate in Reliability Garrett GT60 Turbocharger with Polished Compressor Housing ITS ProGate External 50mm Wastegate Stainless Steel Oil Feed and Drain Lines 2.5” Mandrel Bent Aluminum Intercooler Piping HKS 600x300x65mm Front Mounted Intercooler Core 3” Extreme 2000 Black Heat Coated Exhaust Downpipe Vortech Fuel Management Unit (3:1 Fuel Pressure Regulator) 255lph Walbro In-tank Fuel Pump Upgrade 3” High Flow K&N Air Filter 3” Aluminum Air Inlet Piping All Hardware Necessary for a Complete Install! The Stage 1 Single Turbo System for the Non-Turbo Supra offers approximately 310-320 RWHP for automatic owners and 320-330 RWHP for five speed manual cars at only 8 psi of boost pressure! This is equivalent to the power of a mildly modified Supra Twin Turbo, so don’t be afraid to show it off! Designed to work with all factory electronics, the PHR Stage 1 Single Turbo System delivers a broad horsepower and torque curve that adds approximately 140 RWHP to an otherwise stock Non-Turbo Supra. Of course, we recommend a high quality cat-back exhaust system be added, and other options are available (but not necessary) such as a Blow Off Valve, Clutch upgrade, and MAP ECU (fuel mapping computer). Remember, the PHR Stage 1 Turbo System is designed to be a complete “bolt-on” turbo system, with no other additions required. We don’t sell you the turbo and require that you purchase an additional $2,000 in upgrades. This kit is everything you need all in one box, ready to install and run. Also, we can customize your Turbo Kit with blue, black, or red silicone couplings at no additional charge. While installation is relatively straightforward, we do recommend that the installation be performed by a qualified person with the proper tools and equipment to do the job right. This system is currently only available for the 1993-96 model Non-Turbo Supra due to variances in the air metering system. The dyno shown here is a comparison between a stock Non-Turbo and the same Supra after installing the PHR Stage 1 Kit! For a larger view of the dyno please click here. This Stage 1 kit is upgradeable to the PHR Stage 2 kit later on if you decide you need even more power, just contact us for pricing and availability.
