So I saw that you custom made your frame. Do you have any other pictures of where your front and rear suspension assembly bolt to it? Im in the phase of my project where I will need to modify my frame to do the same thing. Just trying to get more ideas on what to do.

I love what you did with the coilover towers. I think I will be trying to match that.

Also what size steel with you use to make the frame? I was looking at 2x4 steel at 3/16" thickness.

 

I love how the truck looks mean with those meaty tires!

 

yep 2x4 3/16" for the frame
frame is a "custom" with measurements taken from both the supra and truck to make the "cradles" fit the wheel base

Thanks ... I want BIG meats front and rear


.

 

Can't wait to see this truck leaving 40 foot black marks down the street . Gonna be a serious machine !

 

whats it going to be powered by?

 

a hamster

 

two squirrels and a fat bowl of crack?

 

That sounds like more fun then a hamster! Lol

 

many hamsters .. many many hamsters
I built a 7mgte



this should dyno out @ about 400RWHP with the stock CT26


.

 

Hamster.... more like angry ass honey badger .

 

Sorry no it wonte happen in less ya get an upgraded one. the highest stock ct26 so far 350 at 16 psi on stand alone on a 7mge with a mk4 intake manifold

Ps it is a good idea to get rid of the stock oil filter monte and it's ****ty oil cooler system it's just ****ty oil robbing mess

 

yeah , i'm gonna use the stock CT26 for "break in" .. and then go to a larger trim .. this pic is actually 7 years old .. a few mods since and a few more to go ..
it WILL be close to 400.. this is the goal

so what do ya do with the oil filter ?

.

 

Any new updates?

 

ya run a thermo vavle and then run remote filter monte then run a after market chiller

or do like what I did and run a FB rx7 oil cooler has the vavle built in

stock system bleed's persure and only send oil to the chiller at higher oil persure so upper rpm you are chilling oil that could still be cold

and at low rpm it bleeds back into the pan and not going though the engine


it's a pretty ****ty system

 

any pics of your build on line ? I guess I'll do some reserch ..
sorry , no Progress to date .. but we have a new hoist being instaled in the shop on the 18th , so I'm going to finally be able to get something done .

I have to cut the cab mounts off again .. they are not centered correctly now that I have the fenders in place . i have to support the cab again , cut them off , and move the cab back an inch .. just easier to do with the hoist

.

 

yep on supramania

it's a long as thread thou

see if can find it

Ryan's 92 build thread aka NashMan - Page 8


read on form here

 

back at it .. finally



originally when I tacked the frame mounts , I had them in the wrong location ..

time to fix that


.

 

"oops" lol. glad to see your getting some free time to work on it again!

 

Di you have any pictures of the irs? I want it for my 81 but I haven't found any good refrence pictures.

 

thanks guys ...
my buddy Brad came in today and helped me out , we got the cab into its final and proper location . (I had to move it back 2" ). This will be way better for the firewall now as well . and now I super happy with the mock up location of the front fenders and rear fenders

I can take some pics for you , but I built a full custom frame , so I don't know how much it will help .. let me know
