  1. The MKII Supra, all RWD Corollas, the 4 lug 240SX's, some Mazda's and some Mitsubishi's used the 114x4 bolt pattern. Just be aware of offsets, they vary widely, though Toyota offsets are close.
  2. Congrats! Looks very clean man.
  3. I completely agree, but black over silver. Anybody remember Tom Cruise's car in Vanilla Sky?
  4. There's a guy in my club putting a 1JZ GTE into his 86. Should be interesting.
  5. Very nice, one of the cleanest I've seen.
  6. Butternut beige with gunmetal rims, flares, wing and airdam. And some nice chrome fender mirrors.
  7. Paint the car whatever colour you want and if you feel like the rims don't match up nice enough, paint/powdercoat them later. Multipiece wheels are a beautiful thing.
  8. Its 20B or a variation is 20-B, found in the JDM Cosmo.
  9. I may be confused but I think the top V6 offering from Olds is essentially a V8 minus two cylinders, dubbed the Shortstar. Just thinking along the lines of lighter weight and less cost, as well as being able to place it further back in the engine bay. Theres a company out of Toronto that does some pretty harcore work on GM V6's, I belive they've got a Paxton S/C setup for it.
  10. [noob question]Does the T56 bolt up directly to the Northstar or are you using a custom bellhousing? And would it be a safe assumption that the same tranny or bellhousing would bolt up to the V6 Shortstar?[/noob question]
  11. I looked at the rest of his pics and although it doesn't look it, the drop vent hood on that black 240 is CF.
  12. Like everyone else I just wanna see some paint on those curves (I mean the car)

    Oxidation?

    Thanks for the advice guys, I'll try a few of the methods mentioned and see how it goes.
  14. If all goes well I'll be picking up an '86 Supra for next to nothing in the next few days. The car is in great shape overall but the paint is badly oxidized, red paint and bright sunlight don't mix well. I wanted to know if there is a way to remove the oxidation without having to repaint. I know Meguires makes a product called 'Body Scrub' that supposedly helps, so I'm thinking I'll give it a shot. If it doesn't work out, what else can I do? Wetsand? Thanks guys.
  15. Nice motor but the little known 3SGTE from Toyota would be ideal in a 2600lb rwd car like the Z. They came in different gens ranging from 190 to 260hp and can handle 400hp on a stock bottom end while still being reliable. JTCC Supras in Japan ran them a while back opposed to the 2JZ because they are smaller/lighter and can be placed further back in the engine bay to afford a better weight distribution but still make as much reliable power as the straight six.
  16. Nah it doesn't, balance shafts are used primarily to smooth out the operation of big cube 4 bangers.
  17. Sweetness, can't wait to see finished pics.
