Going to pick this up sometime this week! It's an '07 Ninja 650R w/9k miles. I'm pretty excited about it after hearing so many good things about the bike. That and I haven't owned a bike for ten years! A shame I know.. It'll get a fender eliminator eventually..possibly bars. It's already...
haha That would suck. My car is going to get fixed either way. He's gotta wait 'till he graduates before he can get the money and he told me he wants a MK3 regardless (pref. a 1J/2J manual). Seemed like a good opportunity for me to make a move as well. If it falls through and the SC gets...
Thanks. I was thinking it'd be a pretty fair swap. It's about the same weight as my MK3 and it's all cushy too. lol I noticed right away on the highway how similar to a Supra it feels. Not power wise, but the way the weight shifts and the feel of the suspension. Bonus. I'm actually gonna go...
Well, this all started about a month ago when some lil old lady traded in a '95 TT auto on a rav4. I would have worked free for that if they'd let me. haha But no. I couldn't affodr the 25K either so it sat. Time went by and word in the dealership was the MK4 was SOLD. Anyway, the guy came...
It's pretty easy to do at home if you've got air. Take off your air filter/intake hose etc. and tape the inlet of the turbo shut then carefully blow air into the nipple on the "3000" pipe where the bypass valve goes. be quiet and listen for the hiss. Hope that helps!
And you can keep it all original if you want unless the piece you want is discontinued (you can still get oem intercooler pipes no prob). Even then you can find usually something somewhere. Pretty much comes down to what you want to do w/the car and your budget/time avail.. You still gotta...
I used an EVAP smoke machine at work to find my boost leak. There was about a two inch tear in the hose right off the compressor housing just after the clamp. There was no way for me to physically see it. I remember another kid came in last year for the same hose and it retailed for like...
I ordered a full set off ebay from ETD motors/CX racing to fix a massive boost leak(right off the compressor housing). $250 to my door. Fitment is good, piping isn't too thin either. The only modification I did was welding a bung in for my intake temp sensor. IMO it's a good price even if you...
The slots for the screw are exposed on the hose side allowing the screw to chew into hoses. The 2nd one looks like it's made so the screw/holes won't come in contact wth the hose. I used the last kind on mine when I put it back on, but mine looked like it was double re-inforced.
Edit: IJ...
I messed up w/the tstat housing the 1st time, but I changed the hose clamp on the inside to a heavy duty spring clamp. That saves a bunch of time the next round! lol
Hahaha I blew one(front) last year doing a burnout and it kicked my butt. I caught it this time while looking for a boost leak. Now I have a spare and can change it in like 10-15min. :)
Yea, I know. I don't think it's the best idea giving it to a kid either. I'd like to give it a good home, but I've already got my '88 and an '89 in the garage that doesn't turn over (got it for $600).. Meh.
LOL What about the SC'd 5.7 in the MK2!? That would be scary.
First is this doctor that lives in the area. He's got a new red Tundra 5.7 Limited Dbl cab/reg bed.. loaded.. DVD/Nav, backup camera, sonar, 12" drop down DVD player in roof, sunroof, fender flares, TRD intake/filter and TRD dual exhaust. He's got some nice random chrome 20's for winter and...
