had a stock a340e in my cress pushing around 400 daily on it for years. then switched it out for a built a340e from level 10 transmissions... havent had a chance to really push i thard though so i cant tell you about the new ones reliability, but it definately shifts hard. losing traction during...

ive read a bit on the filters in this area, the sticky and a couple other sites. but didnt see anything on the construction of different filters and to compatability of a filter made for 1 car, and a filter made for another. the only things that i know would be different would be the thread...

so you boosted it a couple times before you drove it back to your place? you may have loosened up an intercooler pipe. but other than a possible intercooler pipe blowing off, your afm sounds like the culprit. and you would "fiddle" with the afm first because a clear symptom of a bad afm...

well, it could very well be a near estimate of what flow capabilities of an intercooler of a certain design, almost how you can size injectors in cc based on the hp goal your looking for. overall, if im looking for an intercooler thats going to provide me with good spool as well as good...

heh sry, the sig lies... i havent updated it in a while, my engine bay is pretty much complete different... new intake, new pipes, new intercooler, new turbo, new ignition.... lol running a sp67gt, not the upgraded ct-26 60-1. 67gt is a 6776re DBB turbo, .76 ar oh btw, i...

well, the intercooler was just to get the car running to ship it. and i just noticed how the incredibly large intercooler was affecting the spool time, but don't want to go so small in the sizing of the intercooler that all of a sudden im losing cooling efficiency for the amount of air flowing...

i had the same problem... i had you mount the TPS from the wrong car for me lol... it just required quite a bit of tweaking and also tweaking the butterfly a little to get it to read right.... lol.. need to fix that soon hah

lol good kill... woulda hated to see a thread on a 350z forum pop up about how a cocky supra owner threw on his hazards and couldnt catch up though lol.... good thing your car is pretty quick :)

ill see if i can swing by servco toyota here to take a pic when they are open, the different quality between the two different toyota filters was discussed by a few guys down here and they had only run ones that were japan produced. but each service station chooses to keep in stock certain types...

there was also a note in there about the updated toyota filter that is made in japan, not the thailand one.

would you even recommend using something like pennzoil platnum in an older car that was on regular for 120k miles, then switching to to the synthetic PAO oil without changing any seals? id love to be able to switch to a synthetic to help the mileage a little on my jimmy, but ive always been...

ive seen several ct-26 (stock, non upgraded) with large cracks around the wastegate dump opening and lots without.. extending past the flap gate..... just think of how much more power it takes to get the same pressure and maybe less spool if your always flowing some exhaust through it... plus if...

make sure to open the wastegate. make sure all the carbon is cleaned off of it and check for anything that looks like a crack, if the turbo had seen a lot of use, its likely to be cracked and no good unless you have someone that can weld it and patch it back to normal.

i see what you did there. but its good to know about the need to burn off certain chemicals that make their way to the oil, IE gas and fumes from blowby, water from sitting, humidity creeping its way in, etc. i do know quite a few mkiv owners here that will let their car sit for more than 3-4...

thanks for the extra info. sorry about before too, but its an annoyance of mine if somebody spouts off something with no real grounds for what they are talking about. like you said , the things i posted are only part of why you should change a certain amount of times based on running...

we have tint laws.. aside from california, hawaii has the most ridiculous vehicle regulations ive ever seen, and they dont even do smog out here..... cant remember the % for tint, but its not very dark. my car has probably one of the darkest tints while still being legal, and you can see...

supra 28 - we do out runs at seperate times.... during the day is kind of a long shot on the weekend to find an open road here, its pretty crowded all the time unless you go out at 6am on a sunday and cruise until 10 when church gets out. so night time mainly heres a video of some fun out at...

anyone else run the bolton SP turbos? i run a sp67gt because i wanted a turbo that had decent spool characteristics for street conditions, but when needed could produce a high enough horsepower to run with a built auto at the track. just wondering what everyone else is running along with...

heres a vid of just some cruising and highway fun (real short) of me and a couple other supras and heres one of a h3 cruise with the 808 supras... we dont have a lot of 7m cars that come out anymore, its mostly mkiv's because the kids here in hawaii honestly don't know how to build...

if you read my post... its going to explain to you why you SHOULD change your oil at a prescribed time, as opposed to at a prescribed mileage... its all based on the way your vehicle is used....... same thing for the oil analysis.. that was covered in my post as well about oil health...
