MUSCLE CARS & HOT RODS Episode 71

In this project Chris gets his 1JZ-GTE installed and running in 1989 Mark III Toyota Supra. This is awesome I am excited to see what comes of this car, perhaps 350hp?

Average cost??? I want to do this to my supra so bad.

In episode 61 we go over swap costs and budget cost. Of course only the owner of a collision and restoration center can have a candy color change refinish for cost at approximately well, I dont know, call in a bunch of favors and materials will be at the 2000 $ range you do the math.

I haven't been getting notifications for your last few videos.

Great progress. I vote yes for the ZZ Top beard.

And I make three looks like it's settled.

I am a big fan of the videos.I know you are a dart man,let me ask you if you know of a good supplier for body panels for 1973 plymouth scamp?I believe all I need is lower rear quarters and trunk dropouts,but cannot seem to find any.If I have to make my own,what steel do you reccomend?

thanks for all the great tips.

Your probably going to have to find a donor car for your parts I haven't really researched it yet but I don't know of any after-market parts available for your project. If you want to make your own go get some 18 gauge and have fun shouldn't be too hard a shape to come up with.

I remember seeing this car on ebay a few years ago. Do you still have an album with those pictures in it?

I'm betting the car runs around 12.6 @ 107 Mph in the 1/4 mile. It depends on what computer is installed.. If it's factory.. James ya ain't gonna have any problems "Dusting" it. Just got to get your car to hook.. Buy Cal Tracks for the rear leaf springs buddy!

It's hard to hear my reply to your question about being scared to race the dart, but no, not afraid, kinda getting excited, really. I've disvovered the 1JZ was rated at 276hp with 7PSI of boost. I'll have a much improved intercooler, exhaust (including y-pipe), ECU, driveshaft, and hopefully around 15PSI of boost. I feel a little threatened by your nitrous, but... We'll see what happens.

Dude, perhaps I should grow a beard ala ZZ Top or something, I'm an ugly bastard.

thanks so much...I kind of figured it was going to have to be homemade or donor....problem is most donors have of course the same problems....looks like I am going to learn alot on this one.Keep up the great work.
