    WTF?!

    ((alright i duplicated this thread in this section so it could get some more traffic, and it technically applies to both GE's and GTE's so it's legit!)) ok, i've tried 2 different fuel lines now (the one that sits on the end of the fuel rail and runs down through the intake manifold and...

    old struts, new springs?

    i was thinking about throwing some H&R springs on my kyb gr2 struts. i was a bit skeptical because the struts might be getting old and worn out (not really sure how to tell), is there any reason to worry?

    7MGE with GTE head+cams?

    i got ahold of a turbo head, so i'll be throwing that on top of my GE block. i was wondering if anyone has ever run the GE with the GTE head+cams? i know some of the guys have run the GTE with GE cams for more power at the bottom end, but has anyone done the opposite? oh and also the GTE...

    So yeah, I'm retarded

    I had a friend helicoil the exhaust threads on my head, when i got it home i noticed most of them were crooked, so i test fitted my turbo manifold to see if it fitted and it didn't. i then proceeded to hammer some of the studs so that i could get the damn studs to go thru the holes; i got it...

    1G-GTE styled IC routing?

    has anyone ever tried to run the 7MGTE IC piping like that of a 1GGTE? i know it would get pretty restrictive at the TB but the same thing happens in the 7MGTE's IC area, and then we could run a regular FMIC any thoughts? (seeing the guy's thread with the 1GGTE made me think of all this)
