1986 MK3 7M-GE: simple cheap upgrades?
 
k i came across this supra and was wondering if there any tiny simple cost effective upgrade to make a tad bit more power or sound?.
- First of all i have to replace the thermostat and probably do a coolant flush at the same time.
- Second of all i'm cutting off the muffler and throwing on a custom muffler(dont worry no walmart mufflers here).
- Third i'm thinkin bout cutting my cats out.
- Putting a different set of rims on
- Fixing the doors a bit
- Upgrading the head with: ARP Headstuds and HKS Metal HG. (i know this is a must)
- Thinkin bout taking my clutch fan off to save a couple HP and throwing in an electric fan with seperate relay and switch.
- Was thinkin bout doin lazy eyes converstion??? (not sure what to do bout that)
- THEN Paint. not to nutz about a really expensive and nice looking paint. was thinking bout painting the car with a nice coat of Satin Black (all rust fixed of course)
- Tint the windows
- Stereo
- Thennn probably Full tune up (Plugs, Wires, Etc.) anyone know where i can get aftermarket stuff like plugs, wires, filters, etc.)
- Then Performance Mods!! (turbo, intake, manifolds, exhaust, suspention, interior, clutch, Etc.)

gonna take this on as a project for probabaly the next year or so! would be great to get hooked up with some sweet deals on parts if possible!!:dance:

let me know what you guys think. also advice would be cool or even some tip and tricks! Thanks.

you don't need a mhg if you're not going for big hp, probably good idea to work on the head while its off too

And WoW another person who wants to put a turbo on a 7mge!!

i know right.

yea redoing your head so you can put on a MHG isnt really needed. a good quality one is fine less you plan on going above 350 hp (safe number i assume)

but if your supra is non turbo. your never gonna see those numbers anyhow. so a mHG is over kill. I wouldn't even take the chance of not getting the compression or the polish right. to finicky
