Ok, I'm sure someone's going to yell at me for my lack of search skills, but I know I found a really solid writeup/guide a while back for the whole Lexus AFM and 550 injector upgrade progression, including recommended steps and estimated HP levels. But that was probably 5 years ago and I'll be...

So it's been a while since I've been on the forums much and either there's a lot of stuff missing or I've just lost my search-mojo. I remember a while back seeing a really decent write-up for installing an A/M mechanical boost gauge into the stock boost gauge location, but hell if I can find it...

Last night my wife and I got the supra running for the first time in 2 years. She still needs brakes and a check over before she's road worthy, and then I need to address the rust/maintenance and thousands of dollars worth of body damage, but at least she moves under her own power again! God it...

I've been thinking about putting 89+ turn signals on my 88 but I'm a little unsure how they will look. Anybody else you there do it? Any pics floating around?

So I've been poking around on Ebay (which I do when I'm bored at work) and I found an intercooler kit that seems like a pretty decent buy: Click here to see the auction. Now, I would of course ditch the included POS knockoff BOV and put a quality BOV in it's place, but for the intercooler...

So I've been looking at various suspension options out there since I plan on upgrading my VERY worn out original setup very soon, and I've come across something confusing... The Tein SS set, which is known to be some of the better stuff out there, is available online (ebay) new, for about...

So long story short, since it looks like I'm not going to be able to get the RS*R springs I wanted, I'm stuck trying to find something else. So right now I'm considering both the H&R Race springs (part number 54689) and the Intrax springs (part number 75.1.050). From what I can tell, the...

So, long story short, I'm now working in a garage and have enough money to start fixing all the problems with my 88 turbo and begin upgrading. So I'm putting together a list of what I need to do, and a list of what I've done. Take a look and see what you think... STILL NEEDED: Priority...

My 20+ year old factory stereo finally gave up the ghost this year, so it's time to put in an after market system. The problem is that I don't know a damned thing about car stereo installation. I'm not looking for anything fancy or expensive, just something good enough to listen to some tunes...

So I was poking around on ebay the other day and I saw a number of these kits that are advertised as HID projector upgrade kits that are supposed to be amazing in every way. I unfortunately know practically nothing about lights except that mine suck. Does any know anything about these? Do...

Hey guys. I'm doing a presentation on turbo systems for school and I'm having trouble finding a pic of an engine that shows the entire turbo system (intake, turbo, intercooler, manifolds). Does anybody have a pic where you can clearly see how the whole system is connected? It doesnt have to...

So a while back we put the new (read: rebuilt) 7M in, and it installed without any major issues. It starts up and idles, but the idle is at like 2000rpm or a little over. If I rev it up it responds just fine. The only think I can think of off hand would be a vacuum leak, but I can't find any...

Hey Guys, So long story short, I'm looking for decent quality pics of the orange supra from the fast and the furious. I remember when the movie was made they were all over the place, but I can only find a few pics now. Anyone have them kicking around that they wouldn't mind sharing? Thanks!

Ok, I have an 88 turbo with a blown engine. I also have a rebuilt engine that I got from another member that I'm planning on putting in to get her back on the road. But I've never done a swap before, so I'm trying to make sure I don't get caught unprepared. It's a direct 7mgte-for-7mgte...

So I'm in the process (just started) swapping my old nasty 88 side molding to a nice set of 90 (i think) molding that I bought from Rich P. (dragracer), and I've got a problem. The old molding pieces have studs in them that go through the body to the inside, which holds them on. The new...

So I'm helping my brother tear apart the front end of his crown vic after a small accident he was in, and we've run into a problem. We're working on pulling the radiator out, and there are a few other things attached to it. The first is an oil cooler, and I think the second is power steering...

So I'm trying to decide which shocks to use when I update my suspension this summer. I was originally planning to go with Tokico Illuminas so I can keeps TEMS, but since the setup is only going to be in place for a few years (until I can afford coilovers), I don't really see much point in...

[drug induced rant] This is something that's been driving me nuts for a while now. Why does everyone think that "JDM" parts are so much better than any other parts? I know that there are some parts that were different between the markets, and that therefore having real JDM parts may in...

I know this is kind of random, but I'm hoping there are some guru's out there that can help. I just installed Vista Ultimate 64 on my "new" compy. It's a dual processor machine running 2 AMD opteron 64 bit processors, 2GHz each. Everything is working correctly with the sole exception of my...

So as of 11/16, I'm without a job. Now, this is actually a good thing. The company I worked for, because they liked me, decided to give me about a month and a half warning, so I could prepare. So, I'm going back to school, but this time I'm going for Auto Tech. One of the community...
