    Triple plate clutch sounds horrid!! :(

    I too was a bit surpised when we started up with the triple plate in my car, but it is normal since the plates aren't being held together when you've got the clutch pedal down. Mine tends to squeal even when it's in gear though, anyone have thoughts on that? It's not too much squealing and it...

    Need install help on CXRacing FMIC

    Almost all the aftermarket kits that come from no-name/ebay brands are custom mounting that you need to do yourself. They might come with some brackets, but they're just universal pieces that you may or may not be able to use.

    Any pictures of 3 or 4" exhausts?

    I have a 4" which is very tight to the subframe, more or less routed the same way as the other people who posted 4". On normal streets it's ok, but I always hit the piping right at where it goes underneath the subframe going in and out of the parking garage I am at because of the steep incline...

    PS3 video issues

    From what I read, apparently the early launch PS3s have a problem with the GPU's thermal paste. If you look on youtube you can see videos of how to at least temporarily fix the issue, but I came to the conclusion that if has happened once, you're basically on your way to having a dead ps3. I...

    This outta be good... WHAT DEFINES A RICER?!?!?!?!?!

    It's a tired word that needs to be dropped. I think it's funny because import drivers love to throw the word around to try and differentiate themselves from the real "ricers", of course, ask a domestic owner and all imports (including all you guys who would never "rice" out their car) are...

    Remote start Install guide W/Pics. (Dialup go have a sandwich.)

    The newer clifford alarms that have remote start have a specific set of actions that you have to do to set the remote start for a manual transmission. If you don't do them, you won't be able to remote start the car.

    My other Hobby :)

    The only thing more ridiculous than these helicopters are those RC planes powered by turbine engines. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTHWBSluUjU&feature=player_embedded I don't even understand how they keep track of the damn thing.

    help needed for upgrade parts

    1. "domestic" has to do with the size of the injector inlet, domestic is 14mm, import is 11mm, if I remember correctly. You'll need a fuel rail that matches with the injectors. 2. The fuel rail should have the mounting hardware and if it's a completed piece, it will have a return line for the...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    A fluted barrel is stiffer than a regular barrel, which will provide better harmonics/accuracy. One thing to note is that it will only be stiffer than a barrel of equal weight, a heavier barrel will be stiffer. IE: An barrel with all things equal besides fluting cuts, the non-fluted version will...

    mk4 short shifter for NA mk3?

    I thought the extension was only used for SC300s? Does the mk4 also use an extension? I too remember reading somewhere that the R154 and at least the mk3 w58 used the same shifter mechanism. No real experience with it though.

    Anyone think of a good reason the 1j wasn't put in USDM Supras?

    I am not aware of any limitations on displacement based on your license in Japan. There are taxes based on displacement which is one of the reasons about a 1/4 of the cars I saw there were kei cars. Seeing as the 1jz is available in many other JDM Toyota's that are not available here, I'm...

    Installing aftermarket steering wheel

    1 and 2 are correct. The adapter, if I'm understanding what you are asking, is the hub. The hub bolts to the steering shaft and you should be able to bolt a QR or a wheel directly to the hub.

    Anyone need stance coilovers??

    As far as the front rates go, did you just feel there was too much body roll in the front while on the track? Also, how is it when driving on the street?

    Am I the only one who thinks that electric fans are a downgrade?

    If you don't know what you're doing or can't be bothered to get good components, then yes, you should keep the clutch fan. My e-fans work great and they're quiet as well. That being said, the only reason why I needed to swap to them was because the 2jz swap doesn't leave enough room for a...

    SupraForums?

    They do delete users, I was on hiatus for a year or so on all supra forums when I didn't have a supra to work on. At some point my user on SF was deleted, they didn't even give me a warning. More annoying than anything.
