So here's my issue. I have the opportunity to pick up an AEM EMS brand new in the box for a really good price from a buddy of mine who got out of the supra game, but it's for an 87-88 (yellow plugs)
...my car's a 90 (grey plugs), so the plugs are different.
Case and point I was considering...
...there's one with pistons/crank/rods sitting in the front seat of a white supra at pullapart off rutledge pike.
I, personally, want nothing to do with a 1j, but I thought it might be of use to someone looking for a rebuildable block or something. I'm going to post this on SF, too, so...
After deciding that I didn't want to pay the cost of buying an alternator relocation bracket, this is the solution I came up with.
Materials needed:
Universal Alternator Bracket for a small block, which looks like this:
You can get them at pretty much any parts store (mine came from...
Can anybody tell me the size of silicone coupler they used for a q45 tb? My motor tech measured roughly 3 3/8" ID, so I'm assuming 3.5," but wanted to clarify before ordering.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Not sure if this is a repost, but I just came across it and I feel that the MKIII can be slightly better represented than this...

Does anybody know what the diameter of the long upper control arm bolt, as well as the lower control arm bolts where it mounts to the frame are? (i.e. 5/8", 1/2" and so on)
Also, on the lower arms, can anybody measure the width of where it mounts up to the car (where the bushings are).
I'd...
I recently acquired a Nikon D70s from a friend who was moving and was tired of looking at it for like 20 bucks.
The problem with it is that the aperture arm sticks, so you have to "disable" the electronics in the lens and use manual aperture and focus.
Naturally, I don't want to do this...
I know, half of you are thinking "he's stupid," and the other have are thinking "where the hell are you going to get a delorean?!"
Well, here ya go. Meet the fire damaged DeLorean that I'm considering purchasing:
Obviously they're mid-engine, so some sort of rear axle would...
Alright, so after seeing that a few other users have started photo threads of their own, I figured I'd hop on the bandwagon and throw a few together...
...these aren't really in any particular order or anything. Just shots that I enjoyed taking/liked the outcome of.

I'm looking into quick-release ways to mount my front bumper, since it's in and out of the garage a lot, which involves taking the bumper off (the car's kinda low, as you can imagine) and really like the design of these...
...I've searched google, and everywhere else, for that matter, and...
With my new fuel setup I'm going to be running 680cc injectors and a 1:1 boost referenced afpr (Made by holley, if that matters) and am trying to make a decision on a pump.
A friend gave me a new q45 fuel pump (same he uses on his 30ish psi 60-1 1jz) that I was considering using in the tank...
My car's having an issue with, for lack of a better term, falling on it's face at around 4 thousand rpms...or 8ish lbs of boost. Pretty much whichever comes first. In first gear it feels like it hits a wall of missing, and in second (and so on) it starts bucking VERY bad. Like fuel cut, but I...
so I searched for a while, gave up, and here I am. I'm helicoiling my head in the next few days and I need a measurement on how long the stock studs are, and how long the threads are on both ends.
Anybody have an extra stud laying around that can give me the measurements?
I know the thread...
Here are a few shots of my friend's 88 that we just got finished swapping out a gt4088 for a pt67...Aem is next on the list.
...I'll try and get some shots of the engine bay and a complete mod list when I get the chance.

A friend of mine ended up giving me a bomex front bumper for a spare transmission that I had laying around, and I was just wondering what it would look like on my grey '90.
...I haven't taken delivery of it, yet, so I can't exactly slap it on the car.
Plus, for the people that do have the...
I just finished up installing my turbo stuff, and I'm fairly confident that we hooked up the wastegate to the wrong nipple. Being about 40 miles away from the car, I can't exactly go and check, but the boost gauge reads about 5 lbs (the turbo is a gt4088) at most if floored, which isn't right...
So long story short, when retightening my vband, one of the guys helping me broke the bolt in it. No big deal, so I order another one. It comes, and we try to install it, but I can almost fit it INSIDE my 3" outlet, which is obviously a bit of a problem.
I email the guy and he said that the...
My car's in the middle of a pretty big overhaul and I just welded up a 4" downpipe off of a garrett gt4088 that is also newly installed.
My question is this: has anybody run this, and exactly how much louder is it than stock open dp?
Sounds like a stupid question, I know. And I can't start...
