looking for a cheap intake for my 85 toyota celica supra...... i can probably make one, but i'd rather see what I can buy rather then spending the time on it.

You do know that if you get a Cai your going to have to take it off when you get turbo or a supercharger right?

u can either make your own CAI or buy a cheap short ram off ebay

ha yea i know i'd have to take that off if i get the turbo ....... but i just wanted something cheap.... because right now it may be just a daily driver... depending if i want to get into working on my project 79 280zx ha...... do you guys think that a CAI that is for like an mkIII will work?

dont know....prolly not...cus every car is different....the angles for where the intake enters the throttle body and the location of the battery and the hole leadin to the bumper area....

yea i wasn't sure because the engine bay's for both years looked pretty much the same.... i'll check out ebay to see what they have

zonicamry: do you know where this dude would be able to find an intake for an 85 celica supra
HotwheelHarmer: have to make your own.
HotwheelHarmer: there isn't much made speficially for a 2nd gen supra and especially the 5mge in it

You want a really cheap one...? You could just take off all of your intake now, put on one of those little race setup filters and just suck air straight into the throttle body.

i'd rather get the piping because i don't think it would fit... but then again i'm not too sure what you mean ha

go to a part store and get the right size exhaust tubing and couplings from lowes or home depot (rubber couplings)
it all should make sense when you get the pipes

onephatcracka · 03-19-2004, 10:43 AM

but what should i do about the MAP sensor on the end?

Nick · 03-19-2004, 10:57 AM

you need to keep that somewhere along the intake

onephatcracka · 03-19-2004, 02:02 PM

yea i knew that haha... i was thinking of removing that whole intake assembly... but i just saw i pic of how someone did it and all they did was remove the end canister adn riged a filter and a rubber sleave and a pipe..... seams easy enough.. that would probably run me $30... approx.

***zoni*** · 03-19-2004, 02:42 PM

MAP sensor??? that connects to the intake manifold... maybe you mean the air intake temp. sensor

or MAF, mass air flow meter?? i dont know what the mk2 uses...

heres a site to buy an intake kit from for mk2 supra...
