I sure hope that's not for a 1FZ unless you have 3 of them. Lol

Nope it's for a 1hz! It's a Supra 1hd-t hybrid turbo with a Mamba billet 11 blade comp wheel. It will be interesting to see how it goes, still waiting on a few more bits before I can bolt it in.
 
Over the last week: Remote Start & Push button start cleanup, new tires. Also cleaned her up and rainx'd all the glass (supposed to rain all week).
Getting down to the last few necessary mechanical fixes before I start lining up parts for body work.

Ok cool! It was also the turbo used on the turbo Supra's. But in twin configuration and only 3.0L

Show me what is stupidly high and its nearest competitor and let's start there ;)
It was the $235 blue fan clutch & the $495 rear lower control arms that had me never go back to their website.
The fan clutch is $76 + $10 worth of fluid & 15 minutes labor.


The same (for all intents & purposes the same) RLCA's are being sold by OPOR for $153.
Sales and Specials


YMMV.

Well it's all on my site now so I'm hoping you give it another try once I go far more in detail and education ;)

So how many clutches have you rebuilt? I'm up to about 14 and that was before the aquisition. If it's only ten minutes of labor to crack it open, let the oil ALL drain, modify the gate to the correct temperature, refill and put back together then Rick and I will send them all to you and pay you for your ten mins of time each :p

Yes, your mileage WILL absolutely vary. There is nothing on the market that compares with LANDTANK's LCAs. None. It's why I went with his years ago when first available and long before the aquisition was even considered so I'm not speaking as a salesman. God, I hope I'm not sounding like a salesman :(

The bushing carriage is sized to minimize the potential damage to the LCA mount which always gets bashed. The rod is also extremely thick and heavy, thicker than anyone else's. And finally it's the only one to retain OEM bushings, not poly crap. I hate poly and I can't say it enough. If you've done your own OEM LCA bushings then you know how much they are. Add this all together and you can easily narrow the price gap.

PM me if you have any other questions.

View attachment 1220336 Much need it brake fluid flush. The fluid coming out was black. I'm glad I did it.

Which adapter are you using for your '80? I have a home-built device exactly like this for my deuce and I love it, but it has an all-metal brake booster with a screw-on lid, so its easy to adapt a pressure system to it. I'd love to be able to pressure bleed my 80!
 
Come on now. Can't say anything til everything is done ;)

I feel so out of the loop!!:(

Hopefully this doesn't slow up the top secret project!

This kit came in n with a universal gasket and plastic top part that uses j bolts and a chain around the master cylinder to create the seal. Worked very well. I went through a quart of brake fluid and I only had to pump it couple of times.
