The easiest way to find out is to call any parts store and ask for a stud for the supra and see if it's the same part number as the Lexus. The lug nuts should be the same. But you can check the part numbers on them too.

The trouble that your going to go threw to change it from the cross over to the side intake would not be worth it. you would have to relocate your power steering pump and I'm not too sure if the computer even plugs up to the sensors. But for the trouble of getting a head and swapping it you might as well join the DARK SIDE.

Very easy. If you are auto then you have to pull down the lower part of the shifter(plastic part). It's easier if you unlock the shifter first and put it in neutr. But it can be done in park. It will reveal 2 Phillips screws. Remove them and pull out the shifter. Then pull the plastic shifter bezel out and unplug the harnesses. It should snap out. Just be careful to use even force. It will reveal 6 screws. Then pull out the cupholder in front of the center console. It will reveal 2 more screws. Then you should be able to pull out the surrounding. And unplug harnesses. There should be a blue harness for the cig lighter.
I've done this process about 20 times already lol.

I have TT MK4 wheels and stock lugs on my MK3 Supra. The thread pitch usually is the same between newer Toyota's. The depth of the stud is usually the issue. To make sure call a parts place or a wheel shop.

All Toyota / Lexus cars are 12x1.5 thread .As far as I know the studs of either car are very similar in length.just make the studs don't bottom out..

ok i got one i am peiceing together my turbo kit but not ready to install it yet BUT i need to do some maintenance first on my GE. So my question is since I am going to change Timeing belt and water pump and front seals can I also install a thicker HG and run the stock engine without any problems for a while. Basically want to install the ARP studs and thicker HG and still be stock is thats ok or would I have to put on the HG and Studs when I do the turbo install

it is ok to put on the HG and studs to drive around. the car won't be as responsive because the compression has been lower. I have done this in the pass so I can tell you its ok to do so.

thanks for the response how long would you say it is safe to drive like this and what size HG to I get ? I want something thicker than stock but not that big thats it drops my compression so low. I am going to go with a 61mm or 67mm turbo btw
