Been stealing info from this site for a while so I figured I'd post up my daily beater project that I built with parts from 6 different cars :






Bought it out of a field for $100, plug wires and a battery got it running but the headgasket was blown. Ended up swapping a 2.0L engine out of a '97 I got for $275 and a 5spd trans and associated parts. Turbo and manifold are 2g Eclipse, flipped with redrilled top manifold holes and a home-fabbed bracket for the lower holes ala jeffescortlx. Currently running 6psi w/no intercooler, AFR looks good (~11:1 according to the wideband), needing an IC and timing control to run more. Fun car for what it is, have <$2k in it and it still gets 35mpg if I keep my foot out of it.

Specs:
Engine/turbo setup:
-2.0L SPI from a '97
-SPI Controller running off of the tach
-1.9 MAF, 2.0 19lb injectors
-2g Eclipse Turbo manifold (upside down) and T25 Turbo
-Toyota Supra intake piping/blow-off valve
-2.5" custom downpipe (fabbed by me)
-Hacked $40 3" Civic exhaust
-Vortech 10:1 FMU for fuel management
-1 step colder Autolites
-LC-1 wideband for tuning

Suspension/Drivetrain:
-5 spd trans swap out of a '94 Escort
-Spec stage II clutch
-solid front trans mount
-MX-3 H&R springs and Tokico S/R struts
-14" Miata Daisy wheels
-B&M short shifter

Future plans:
-MKIII Supra Intercooler (since mine's never gonna run again...)
-MSD Timing Twister

Good ----, I like both vehicles. Escort is some solid work, you should atleast throw a small smic on there though.

You should sell me parts from that 89 supra, namely the head and manifolds/turbo

Thanks. If I ever get the new engine in I'll have a head for ya No extra manifold/turbo, unless I find a good deal on a SP63GT

Word, that's awesome. Wagons make the best sleepers.

very unnassuming, i love it. Its fun as hell to rape people with a sleeper, especially a wagon

It's a blast, it was especially fun when I hadn't finished my exhaust and was running an open DP, got alot of WTF looks

Definitely need the IC and timing control, I got roasted by a Nissan Titan yesterday....
