I am selling my 1989 Toyota Supra with a 1JZ Twin Turbo motor in it, the car has just about 93,200 miles and the motor has about 30,000 (based on what I was told when I bought it), When I bought the car from the original owner the 7M-GTE motor was bad so I bought the 1JZ motor to replace it. The motor has a Boost cut controller and is set to boost about 12lbs, it has a blow off valve, Intercooler kit, Brand new performance clutch, 3" exhaust with no Cat, and I would guess it is pushing about 325 HP at this point. It was repainted in 2011 and it is a pretty good job but not perfect (original color was red). The interior was originally a grey leather, but when I bought it the owner had swapped it out for the grey cloth as the leather had gotten badly sun damaged. I have added an after market Boost gauge and Oil pressure gauge but other than that the interior is stock. I have new carpeting for it I have not installed yet, the current carpet is stained from years of lack of cleaning. I have more Dynamat sound deadener to use on the floor of the car when I replace the carpet, you can see from the pictures that I have already started putting it in the car in the trunk. The tires have about 2,000 miles on them and the rims are the original and in pretty good shape (no damage just need to be cleaned). Both front seats are 6 way power and the drivers seat has a power lumber support and power side bolsters. The molding on the car came from Japan so the badging is correct to the motor in it now and is different than what you will find here in the states, the bad news is I had the 2 door pieces fall off after I installed them. The car in not perfect but it is a great start to a high performance sleeper street car, I just don't have the time to finish the project at this point but it runs well and could be an amazing car, the fun of Fast and Furious without the price.

Honda may recall up to 1M vehicles for airbag issue, following Toyota's lead

Mon, 16 Jun 2014

It seems Toyota won't be the only one recalling the faulty Takata airbag inflators for long. Honda insiders in Japan claim that the company is getting close to announcing its own worldwide campaign that would begin before the end of June.
Unnamed sources close to Honda in Japan tell Automotive News that the company is pursuing an internal investigation into possibly affected models and is working with Takata to gather more information. They claim that it could involve even more than the 1.14 million cars worldwide that the automaker covered under the first recall for the problem in April 2013, including 561,000 vehicles in the US.
Toyota jumpstarted this process last week when it recalled over 2 million cars worldwide, including 844,277 in the US. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began a preliminary evaluation into the issue following six reported incidents, and started assembling data about potentially affected models from Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Chrysler. NHTSA also began investigating Takata itself.

Fuel cells will flop outside Japan, says VW

Fri, 12 Sep 2014



"It may fly within Japan, but not globally," VW's Shoji said.
It's long been battered into our beleaguered auto writer brains that the ultimate future source of motivation for tomorrow's cars and trucks is not gasoline, diesel, electricity, natural gas, propane or solar power - it's the hydrogen fuel cell. It's been the Next Big Thing since the start of Next Big Things.

Watch this dude paint his Toyota pickup like Eddie Van Halen's guitar

Fri, Nov 28 2014

Eddie van Halen is one of the greatest rock musicians around, and his Eruption guitar solo alone puts him in the pantheon with the best of the best. Artist Ryan Humphrey was looking for a design to repaint his ratty Toyota pickup, and as a Van Halen super fan, he set on the classic scheme of Eddie's guitar for the look. The paint job is made up of a crisscrossing geometric pattern of black and white stripes with a red body. The eye-catching, rock-inspired design should give Humphrey no problems finding his pickup in a parking lot. In a video hosted by Plutonium Paint, he shows you how to get the look using the company's product. Even if you're not interested in watching a guy paint his old truck, the video is still enjoyable just for the chance to listen to some Van Halen tunes.
