hey guys ill b going to usa in 2 weeks and have a few questions.
1.do us domestic tt supras have steel wheels turbos?? and will these fit onto the aristo standard manifold??
2.i might just end up with a bigger single turbo setup that ill get from usa. will a aftermarket manifold for a supra fit my car??it prob will but im not sure......
3.what turbo would b good for about 350rwkw and about a 11 sec pass.(like a t04z??)
4.what other parts do you guys think would b worthwhile buyin from usa??
5.will 4pot supra brakes easy enought a thing to do and be worthwhile buying??

again any info at all will b heaps helpful.
cheers
neil.
sorry didnt read all your posts cant be *ucked lol but basically t04z is overkill for 350rwkw and gt35/40 will do that on about 23ish psi boost with supporting mods!! and brakes wise ive upgraded mine to 4spot 98 celsior callipers and disks and work awesome and where a direct bolt up!! as are the supra ones, but im guessing they would be a little more expensive

5.are 4pot supra brakes easy enough a thing to do and be worthwhile buying??
Straight bolt on replacement - calipers, discs and pads.
Awesome stopping power.
You need bigger wheels with at least 38 offset to clear them. Check any prospective wheel on the setup before buying!

Offset doesn't haven't all the much to do in whether a wheel will fit over big brakes, but more so the design of the wheel to make sure it has curvature around the chunky caliper.
as for the other questions:
Yes USDM are steel wheeled turbos and will bolt on. No i don't think its worth it for the money / hassle involved.
Turbo - a GT35R will do the trick for you for 350 RWKW
Most Supra manifolds will fit but may require some "cutomisation" as the aristo body is different.
what other parts?? depends on what you want and what budget you have.
As mentioned above, yes supra 4-pot brakes bolt on, but i would buy them from the NZ rather then the US as its cheaper (including freight).
Also - if you are travelling to the US, keep in mind issues around baggage weight - there is no way you will get stock turbo's onto a plane and not pay a fortune in excess baggage fees.
hey guys thanks for that ay. im going for a trip anyways so thought id get some stuff that might be cheaper over there. budget is not too big so yeah ill be lookin at all options that i have. weight wise im not sure but i think about 40kgs is allowed or even more on the way back from usa .
any further info you guys may have will be heaps good bout any other extras that you think worth the while lookin at.
