Our 6th Annual Titan Motorsports Open House took place this weekend and we’re happy to announce that we raised $16,154.00 to be donated to various charities. This event has grown every year since its inception and this year was no different with over 1,100 RSVPs through Facebook in the days leading up to the event. Our entire complex was filled to capacity along with nearly every available square inch surrounding where ever a car could be parked. We want to thank all of our great fans and supporters for their patience throughout the day and for helping make this event as great as it is. We are already looking forward to next years event and hope to raise even more money for charity and providing a great place for motorsports enthusiasts to gather and enjoy our facility and the many great cars that attend.

This year we will be making donations to our two chosen charities the Just in Queso Foundation and Florida Little Dog Rescue. The Just In Queso Foundation provides aid to individuals, organizations and communities in need and has been a partner charity for us since our first event in 2010. Florida Little Dog Rescue helps save dogs on Death Row at local Animal Controls. These are dogs that can’t be adopted out directly from Animal Control, mainly for medical reasons. They are rescued, and receive the attention they need so that they can be adopted into a forever home. In addition to donations to this great charity ,we also had them bring out some of their available dogs to the open house, we’re happy to report that we were able to help one of the dogs find it’s forever home at the event.

We want to thank our event sponsors and participating vendors for their gracious support and attendance:

ACL, ARP, BC Suspension, Cometic, CP Pistons, DEI, Denso, Edelbrock, Fidanza, Fuel Lab, JE Pistons, Gates, King Bearings, Limitless Drones, Mr. Gasket, Ideal Auto Glass, NGK, Nitrous Express, Precision Turbo, Weld Racing, Wiseco, Highway Star, I Love Driving Slow, Lowered Lifestyle, Simply Clean

Festivals of Speed wrapped up its annual event at the Ritz Carlton Orlando this weekend, check out the short clip and gallery below to see some of the amazing cars in attendance. This is one of our favorite local events to attend here at Titan Motorsports and we look forward to attending again next year.

It’s no secret, we build a lot of 2JZ engines, typically we get quite a few email inquiries for advice that typically start like this

“Do I really need this part for my build”
“So and So said that they don’t have this part and it’s a waste of money”
“I don’t want to do extra machine work to my engine but want to make 1,500hp”

Every now and then the conversion starts with a nice picture like the one below that is worth well more than 1,000 words.

This particular engine was making north of 900hp with a factory shortblock setup, as you can see the factory mains decided they weren’t up to the task and the customers re-build/upgrade will now include a set of our Titan Billet Main caps.

The Titan Motorsports billet main caps are precision machined from high tensile billet steel. We developed these main caps out of necessity for our 2JZ race program and soon found them to be applicable in most street engines. With the increased boost levels seen in single and larger twin turbo setups, the factory crank pushes down on the caps often leading to stress fractures and cracks. The factory main caps were not designed for the forces required when doubling and tripling the factory horsepower and torque levels. These caps are included in our short block and race engine packages and now available separately for those building their own engines.

Titan Motorsports main caps will work with both the 2JZ-GTE engine found in the Supra turbo, as well as the 2JZ-GE engine found in non-turbocharged models. Please keep in mind that a line bore of the mains will need to be completed upon installation of these upgraded main caps. We recommend using brand new ARP Main studs and fresh bearings when installing the Titan Motorsports main caps.

The 2014 Titan Motorsports Open House was a huge success, the event went off without a hitch and we couldn’t have asked for a better group of enthusiasts to enjoy the perfect weather and take in some amazing vehicles. Our facility was jam packed the entire day with every available square inch of parking taken up in our parking lot and all of our neighboring complexes. This year we partnered with the Just in Queso Foundation, The Just In Queso Foundation provides aid to local individuals, organizations, and communities in need. With the help of our dedicated fans and local enthusiasts we were able to raise $14,054.00 for a worthy cause.

This event wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our many great vendors and sponsors; Fragola,DBA, ISC, Manley, ARP, Fuel Lab, Mackin, Fidanza, Dei, Gates,Aeromotive, Accell, Cometic, Simpson, Denso, Bosch, Exedy, Royal Purple and E3. We also want to thank the great people at Simply Clean, Lowered Lifestyle, Highway Star, and ILDS for their gracious attendance and help in promoting the event. Tijuana Flats once again donated all of the food for the event and was able to keep the lines flowing throughout the day and make sure no one went hungry.

Were already looking forward to next years event and will work to improve the event as much as possible once again, if you’ve got any suggestions or comments on how the event could be improved, please email them to wes@titanmotorsports.com and we’ll do our best to address them in time for next year.

This weekend V2Lab hosted it’s second Mystery Meat in downtown Orlando. Last years impromptu event brought chaos to downtown, this year the event had the cities blessing and was much more organized as a result. This event isn’t a car show, but rather a gathering of like minded enthusiast to hang out, show off their cars and enjoy the great Florida weather. As a result the scope of vehicles in attendance varies from Donks, VW, Honda, Exotics, Ruckus, bikes, all with modification from mild to wild. It was a great event, a big thanks to Ravi and the V2Lab crew for putting it together, we are already looking forward to next years event.

Originally developed on our 2JZ race engines to save additional weight, we had many requests to developed these for the consumer market. The foundation for these stunning covers is a billet aluminum base that is CNC machined to offer proper gasket sealing with the head using the factory gasket. We then hand form a smooth sheet metal top that is then tig welded before being mirror polished. The result is a set of valve covers that are 2lbs lighter than the factory units, and more visually appealing. The sheet metal construction allows the valve covers to be used with or without a fill cap, and -10 or -12AN fittings to be placed at the customers requested location for crankcase ventilation (standard configuration is smooth).

The Getrag V160 transmission commonly found in the Toyota Supra Turbo is a very robust unit, however over time wear to the factory bushings can produce a sloppy feel in the shifter. Solidify the shift armature with these billet aluminum shifter bushings that remove excess play and help ensure a smooth and consistent shift every time. Transmission removal is not required for installation, just remove your shift tower and replace the worn factory bushings with your new Titan billets.

Titan Motorsports displayed at the Autosport International Show January 10-13 at the NEC Center in Birmingham England. Our booth was joined by our technology and distribution partners Manley Performance and Fidanza to display our latest products and distribution news to our European customers. We exhibited in the Engineering Hall this year which spans the first 2 days of the show and is geared towards those in the automotive engineering and trade business. In addition to the Engineering Hall there is a main hall geared towards the public that runs the entire 4 days with automotive and parts displays that would satisfy most any gear heads appetites. In this hall we were treated to many great cars not found in the states such as the latest Noble, Ginetta, Mono, and plenty of race cars including this years F1 lineup. The Autosport show is one of the few shows where you can see in depth the engineering and manufacturing side of what goes into building the most extreme vehicles in motorsports, and venture into the next hall and see the completed vehicles on display.

In the booth next to ours, Schroth had Bugatti Veyron engine on display along which had parts from the OEM development side.

After marveling at the Veyron engine and the engineering behind it, seeing the factory intake manifold in the Capricorn Group’s booth completely blew me away.

Looking for a Sequential transmision for your endurance racer made completely from billet? Albins has you covered.

The 991 Porsche cup car was just released in images for the general public to see, but at Autosport you can see in depth the parts that make it the competitive machine it it, like these massive brakes from PFC.

Once you got past all of the high tech parts on display there were plenty of cars new and old to marvel at, like a handful of F1 cars from decades past.

SATS Motorsports who we’ve sponsored for the past few years also unvield their Drift Supras new livery, big things are in the works for 2013 and we look forward to expanding on this partnership and helping the team with their latest goals.

Mclaren F1 cars are rare cars to begin with,seeing a F1 GTR is a once in a lifetime occurance, this one was owned by Pink Floyd’s Nick Mason.

If the newer Mclaren cars are more your thing, the latest Mclaren MP4-12C GT3 was a few steps away.

Although still not massively popular in the US like Nascar, people in Europe go crazy over F1 and Autosport caters to this by offering a rare display of the previous years F1 cars displayed for racing fans to see in the flesh. I personally enjoyed being able to compare the minute differences of each car only possibly by starting at them all a few feet from each other.

After the show was over, we packed up our booth and left Birmingham to continue our trip by spending a few days recouperating in London. From there it was a quick flight to Germany to spend a few days braving the cold and exploring a pair of automotive enthusiasts automotive meccas in Stuttgart, expect additional posts on that in the coming days.

Titan Motorsports is proud to offer a direct replacement polycarbonate front and rear window kit for the MKIV Toyota Supra. Manufactured from 3/16” thick polycarbonate utilizing the same exact shape and contour of the OEM windshield and rear window allows the replacement to be glued in with all factory seals and trim being retained. A permanent screen printed black out border is applied prior to shipping providing a scratch and flake resistant coating to hide the sealant used for permanent installation. Replacing the factory glass with polycarbonate offers a significant vehicle weight savings typically shedding 10-12lbs for each piece, netting a total weight savings of over 20lbs with front and rear glass replaced.

These windows have a permanent anti-fog coating installed from the factory as well as a durable mar-resistant coating to provide chemical resistance and limit light abrasion. For vehicles traveling at high speeds for extended periods of time we do suggest installing bracing to prevent deflection.
