    Are coilovers really worth it?

    I guess before everyone gets too crazy about this, one should assess the quality of their roads before they buy a set of coilovers. If you have MN style roads then the hell with it, get some rally specs lol! If its mainly a street car anyway. I'm running the stance setup and I can't see these...

    head retorque questions

    I retorqued my bolts on the 7mgte and have not had a problem but... the stock bolts are torque to yield bolts and i'm told they don't do too much more than their stock spec. Instead they stretch because apparently that's what they are designed to do.

    boost spike issue

    Weird mine shoots up like crazy in the low gears and seems more consistent in the higher ones. Where was your leak?

    boost spike issue

    Hey so how does boost react now that it's fixed? I have a mbc too and mine always spikes up to near fuel cut and then falls off if I hit it, but if I roll on the throttle it will go to 9 lbs and hold. Sounds the same.

    Wtf mate?

    Ill check it but the ground in my headunit is through the harness. and the amp is good too, no noise from back there. The noise is not coming from my speakers, and does not seem to be from behind the radio but more particularly behind the climate controls and right side of the gauges.

    Wtf mate?

    Alright never mind it's back again! I don't think it's interference because it is not coming from the speakers.

    supra wont start

    Ok well more importantly, if you smell burning from your fuse box which I believe you wrote earlier, you need to take it apart and check the bottom to be sure nothing is wrong. Even though it's running fine.

    Wtf mate?

    Interesting. I have been told they were located under the passenger seat. I replaced that seat so I don't think that's it. It didn't occur today at all so i'm not exactly sure. It's been suggested that its probably just interference.

    Wtf mate?

    Just today I started getting this little ringing noise from what seems to be behind my radio and climate controls. Sometimes it chatters like dial up internet but mostly it just rings and changes tone as I turn on different electrical devices. It only occurs in the accessory position or when...

    I think my car will have code 52 forever!

    LOL this is ridiculous! Last summer I had the same issue and figgie even came over and helped rewire the sensors but resulted in no luck. After a few sleepless nights I was tinkering with the wires to see what the heck was going on and as i unplugged the rear knock sensor, half the sensor came...

    Motor swap question

    I did delete the a/c considering it never worked but I can't say from experience about the power steering... the car weighs over 3500 pounds and youll be most likely doing performance driving of some sort.... keep it. Anyone who has deleted it can tell you better than me though. PS: Check...
