Second Generation (MK2) 1982-1986 Celica Supra

Update on what's going on, new parts, shopping list, plans.Finished tearing down the head and its ready to go to the machine shop sometime soon.  Have been purchasing parts a-lot lately as there are a-lot of things I want to replace while everything is apart. 

First I bought a complete head gasket set from www.carmadillo.com for $102

At the same time I also bought a set of Denso Iridium Spark Plugs for $11 each.  These are supposed to be the best of the best for spark plugs, notice the tiny electrode at the end of the spark plug.  This is made of a rare metal that was found in an asteroid that landed in the Gulf Of Mexico.  They should keep my engine running well for a very long time.

My next purchase was a set of ARP head studs.  These will allow me to get very accurate cylinder head torque and will keep things in place if I turbocharge the motor in the future.  They were purchased from Summit Racing for $102.  It would probably cost nearly as much to buy stock replacements from the dealer and the old ones cannot be reused so this is not such a bad thing.

Also purchased from Summit Racing is a 2 1/2" high flow cat that is a direct bolt on replacement for my stock 1 7/8" cat.  This was an expensive purchase but should yield some good power as removing the cat adds 9hp  so this should give at least 5hp if not more. 

I purchased a used Pacesetter headder from a MK2 Supra mailing list member.  It needs to have a flange welded on it and then it needs to go to Lake City for ceramic coating.

I bought 4 210cc injectors from the junkyard a while back that will need cleaning before going in I also will need 2 more of these might have to buy new as they are hard to find.

That being said I still have lots of things to buy as well as machine work that needs done.  Here's my shopping list as of now to complete the project.

1.)Flange for the headder $8

2.)Radiator $170

3.)Injector grommets-For some reason the gasket kit came with only the O-Rings but no grommets $12

4.)Water Pump $60

5.)Front main seal $10

6.)2 210cc Injectors $15-80

7.)New stainless steel valves $90

8.)Valve springs $50
