$700 dollars for the car

$310 dollars for HKS hg, FCD, ARP Bolts

Got a wicked exhaust leak @ the exhaust manifold.Ordering gasket and bolts tomorrow.

For know she is running smoothly the idle was alright i was kinda worried i got about 14 hours of port work on the intake manifold.
From previous work most of the cars idle funny after the port work.

Know i got to decide on my next step.

Any suggestion?

buy some heli coils for that stripped exhaust manifold bolt hole(s).

That or retap for a slightly larger bolt, possibly one up in SAE sizes.

Well when i wrote this i had just drove it up and down the drive way.

Today i took it down the street and holy shit.
My talon made power at 5500 rpm's.
This car makes power just at 3500 rpm's.
When i shifted into second i thought the struts were bad, kinda pissed me off until i got out they said the tires broke loose.
HKS HG, ARP Head Bolts, EGR plates, Electric fans, Intake Manifold Ported and , Some cheesy home made cat back(installed by previous owner) and this car impressed the living shit out of me.
I had always expected these cars to be stong but have never even raced against one. I think with a little modifications this thing should be a monster.

7m is well known for being a torque monster We should meet up sometime to check out the Supras (I'm in BR).

I was planning on going to the Supras Invade The Port of Call. I figured there would be a decent turn out.

That is if i can get around to salvage the title. If not me and my friend my come up there in the FC.

The meet at the Port is bimonthly, pretty low turnout usually. I used to go everytime but it got too expensive to drive out there just for the night.
