MKIII center tips

[bboy_leathel]

sorry to keep u all waiting here is my MKIII with the center tips

[bboy_leathel]

tell me what u think about my exhaust

[Supra_devil]

i think it looks nice, but i can't see the angle compared to the bumper very well or how far it sticks out, more angles would be nice. :)

[bboy_leathel]

i'm taking more pics this weekend

[supra_man89]

i like the center tips they look pretty sweet did u buy the car that way or did u do it yourself ??

Corey

I'm going to change my earlier estimate, your definitely losing more than 1hp on that setup. It is reminiscent of a porsche boxter.

Tim

[1jzsupra]

i dont like it but its ur preference

[bboy_leathel]

my dad did the exhust after i bought the car

[dualtips]

in all fairness to power loss considering it is now running 2.5 inch pipe and a dynomax muffler it is still easily over stock numbers, except the fact that it was ratbagged!
LOL

[Deep_Blue]

As far as installation, that's a pretty sweet job your dad did, is he a welder?

I thought MKIIIs came stock with 2.5inch piping. But this is one issue I think I could possibly be mistaken on.

Tim

[dualtips]

no our dads a custom exhaust guy, and they came 2.25, and minus the cat, definately more power

[Deep_Blue]

Both cats? Or just the one? Should've gone off the turbo!

That'd be sweet!

Tim

[dualtips]

it's NA if it was turbo he would have shit his pants the first time i took him for a rip in it!

[Deep_Blue]

That's why the 2.25 inch piping then. I think the turbos had 2.5. Yeah, then that exhaust size is just fine for now.

Tim

[bboy_leathel]

i'm getting 4 inch when i do the engine swap i'm still confused if i should but a 1jz-gte or a 2jz-gte

[supra_man89]

1JZ will be less money and a lot easier to do, but the 2JZ will give more bang for your buck if you're looking for a higher horsepower, and its a lil more complicated to do than the 1JZ, im looking into doing a 2JZ swap as well, and its well ... quite the hole in bank if you know wut i mean

Corey :toast:

[bboy_leathel]

hey sounds like a pretty pennie but the power will be a plast down the drag strip i saw a 95 supra run 9.5 once and the mkII is why lighter i think

[Deep_Blue]

Corey's putting his in an 89 MKIII, which is not lighter so he will not gain in that area.

7MPOWER FOREVER!!!!!

Tim

[1jzsupra]

7m better market..

[Supra_devil]

any M series motor is as good as the other, after a point. unless your rebuilding the block for a full out performance then its better to start 7m. for a full out motor, i would actually prefer a 6m. i can get valves, cams, turbo kits, and all that for it, the intake on it flows nicely, the crank is strong as hell. and so many parts can swap between the M series motors that they really all have the same market, lol.

[Deep_Blue]

No replacement for displacement, tired phrase but true. My defense for the 7M>others.

Tim

[Supra_devil]

6m is a 3L.....

<likes displacement too.

although to make a 3L 5m is as easy as stroking it, it has the same bore as the 6/7m.

[Deep_Blue]

I know the 6m has 3.0l too, but I chose to ignore that fact b/c that's who I am. The block on the 7m is different, so it can be bored out more than the 5m for sure, and I believe the 6m too. Up to a max of .060. As demonstrated by Kevin M. After that it spontaneously explodes.

Tim

[Supra_devil]

all the M series i belive can be bored the same, like i said, same starting bore, also the 6m is the exact same block as the 5m. changes was the crank and rods. i have heard of people boring the 5m as far as .080 to iirc. I am not trying to say the 5/6M is a better starting point, just that for a full build up they are all pretty much the same. for the average guy that doesn't want to spend 10,000 on his motor, then i would go 7m, hands down, in a second flat.

ok, did some reading, .2 L can be picked up with bore, so a 3L 5m, a 3.2 6M. not sure about 7m. don't know if thats the limit, but thats a pretty large increase.

[bboy_leathel]

i have a 7m whats higher then that the 1jz right and like most people saw the bigger the better

[supra_man89]

BAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH ok ok tim enough talk, ill drop my 2JZ and we'll race, not only will you get owned by me, but you will have a bad taste in your mouth ... why ? becuz dirt and dust tastes like crap WHEN YOUR EATING IT !!!!! LOL, you seem to be on a roll here tim, picking races left and right,

Corey :buttkick: :slap: :barf:

[bboy_leathel]

i don't want a 7m-gte because i have a 7-mge so i can ezaly make mine have i turbo so it's no fun

[supra_man89]

yeah for sure ... i know where your comming from i have an n/a as well, but not for long CUZ ILL HAVE MY 2JZ *corey tim race ... look for it ... anticipate it next spring* lol jk jk jk

Corey

[bboy_leathel]

crazy man i got to kick my bros mkIIs ass not beacuse i hate MKII but because his my bro

[Deep_Blue]

crazy man i got to kick my bros mkIIs ass not beacuse i hate MKII but because his my bro


I have three brothers, I can understand that.


BAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH ok ok tim enough talk, ill drop my 2JZ and we'll race, not only will you get owned by me, but you will have a bad taste in your mouth ... why ? becuz dirt and dust tastes like crap WHEN YOUR EATING IT !!!!! LOL, you seem to be on a roll here tim, picking races left and right,

Corey


Actually, you're picking a race, not me, and besides which, after spending $6000 on putting a 2jz in, you will still be making about 40hp less than my car at the wheels on a stock 2jz-gtte. Throw another $1000 on in mods and we'll talk. :D If you want to race you'll have to get in line behind all the other quys that want to race me, and considering I roll with a 320k engine, it'll probably have rod knock, crank walk, spin a bearing, BHG and melted pistons by the time it gets to you :lol: . Furthermore, I still have to go race a corvette for pink slips so that I can get a T56 for mysterious purposes... :jump:

Cheers,

Tim

[supra_man89]

LOL its all good tim, i guess i did kinda call that one, meh o well, maybe we will race after do end up modding the engine a little bit, sounds like a blast :D

Corey :toast:

[bboy_leathel]

is it that cheap to put a 2-jztte in to a MKII

[Supra_devil]

ok, time for toyota engine code classes.

g is for performance valves/dohc
e is for fuel injected
t is turbo
2jz in this case is the motor code, same as 5m, 6m, 7m, 1jz, 1g, etc.

2jz-gte

not 2jzgtte, not 2-jztte.

Nissans the one that uses multiple T's fot twin turbo, not toyota.

[bboy_leathel]

ok got u so its that cheap to put a 2jz-gte in a MKIII

[1jzsupra]

its not cheap i bet it would cost around 7-8 thousand for the swap

[bboy_leathel]

i was thinking of 12-13 thousand for the swap to me this is way cheaper so how much for a 1jz-gte

[Deep_Blue]

Glenn,

Sorry for accidently double tapping the "t", your Holiness.

Tim :D

[Supra_devil]

Tim, since you so sincerly apoligized i will spare your soul from hell, this time! but be warned, i seldom watch or care, so anything you do will go unnoticed and you will go to heaven.


Wait.......... thats not much of a threat now is it?

[dualtips]

example RB26DETT

THAT'S A SKYLINE

[night_font]

its nice...i also have to say that the one i see on the west end all the time has the same set up..and that car is a 84 mk2 supra...yeah baby

[bboy_leathel]

thats my brother dualtips his in the club to and thers some pics of his car to

[dualtips]

and actually mine is an 85 supra, one piece wing without the light in the center, the best year of the MKII!
