I think you're referring to "shim under bucket" setups. It's been covered many times here. Certain other Toyotas used them for certain years such as the MR2. Search the GTE forum for "shim under bucket".

The clock uses a VFD.... I never found a compatible one in any color. Lighting gels to change the color to a degree or a complete replacement clock are the only ways I came up with. Gels dimmed the display too much though so I drafted a circuit for a replacement using LED displays but never...

I'm making a note in my calendar to check back in four more. Sometimes the drama just can't unfold nearly fast enough... you know?

So you won't be coming by for that ultra thin copper clad board? Did you end up etching a board or what? Looks great!

Nice work Sparky. ;) They definitely can be hell to deal with. If you just need straight lines some copper tape used in stained glass work that you can get from Michael's or Hobby Lobby works real well. Or you could etch a board Time magazine style style (Google it). Pre-tinning helps when...

There's a dedicated stud for them UNDER the intake plenum.

Any local N/A owner want a free set of 6 NGK BCPR5EGP? Gotta come get 'em from me though. S/W Denver, Hamden & Wads area. Send me a PM.

To bypass jumper the white wire with green stripe to the white wire with the black stripe... They're two of the three wires running to the dimmer; The third is green, you don't need to do anything with it.

I think you're stretching an already all too weak dollar there but yeah, point made. ;)

I really hope you didn't lose more than $5 on that thing.

Cometic is a brand of MLS HG. It does require the same prep as any other MHG; It's just more forgiving if there's texture from the machining than some other types.

I agree, if you want to talk him through it. ;) I was just trying to go with something that was easy enough for him to find and setup which when his bad wiring job failed while driving down the highway the car wouldn't totally die. They say everyone's got something they're good at.... at...

Yo! Alex! How's things bud? Send me an email sometime, I hope you're well. Elisamuel467's car is a swap from A/T so his wiring isn't as it should be is what I'm getting from his last post. Look for the wiring under the center concolse for the NSW... Black wire with white stripe and Black with...

Well, he seems to have it in mind that if he gets us to post enough options it'd take hours for us to figure out which one(s) he actually employed in the car. :naughty: It's brilliant really. :thumbup:

No, nothing's certain... A leak down test along with a compression test and testing the pH of the coolant would tell you a lot more.
