My old Mk3
 
Hello.

I?m new to this forum (and this is my first supra).
It is a 1989 supra turbo that has a Holset HX55 turbo and an Eaton M90 supercharger. In its last dynorun it had 630whp and 840Nm.
I bought it with this setup. I started with ripping the engine out because a "small" bearing problem.

But i ordered a bunch of stuff from looseboltsmotorsport.com and started to build.

Right now i?m painting the enginecompartment so the new engine will fit nicely in a shiny and beautiful enginebay.

The car itself does not look that good yet, but during the long and boring winter it will be painted and rebuilt a bit on the outside aswell.

But i?m thinking of having it looking a bit like this one instead (except i want a lower rear wing)

Ah, i almost forgot the most important picture of all. Under the hood. =D
Notice the small pulley under the alternator. Thats the little Eaton M90.

It needs alot of work under the hood to look good. And if i get it the way i want it will produce 700whp.
But right now i dont have a good crank, the one i had in the spare engine was a bit too bent to use in this "meaner machine"...
Anyone in europe that wants to sell me a 7M crank??? :naughty:
Anyway, please say what you think of the car. Fell free to give me some advise on some funtional styling for it. I want it to look good, but still have function if you know what i mean?

Cheers, Morgan from the snowy sweden. :cool:

wow nice find man, but it looks like it needs a lot of work and tlc. i would suggest to lower the turbo or get a hood that doesnt have the ugly cut out

alicia1cat 10-06-2009 03:45 PM

love it!!!man i wish i could aford and have the know how. you do.

Thanks for the nice comments.
And about the hood, i?m thinking of another turbo and a new supercharger. And then (hopefully) everything will fit under the hood. ;)

Everything in the engine is now balanced, checked and doublechecked.
