    Trying to Solve Fuel cut - at wits end - this one will stump you

    Remove wastegate arm from from flapper and let us know if you still get a code 34. If you do, your AFM electronics are faulty or your wastegate flapper is seizing up when you're driving the car, but behaving nicely as not to get punished when you are inspecting it... Just my .02 pesos... -Jake

    Cam tuning info and guide

    Good point! But I do think that the density is taken into account on the basis that the mass incoming per cycle is always squeezed into .5 L for each cylinder. Thus if the mass flow rate increases (read freq for a karman sensor), the TCCS is going to know that the density has changed. This...

    Cam tuning info and guide

    I'd have to know your runner length, average cross sectional area, and the distance to the back face of the plenum to even come close to guessing! I know those cams should have a sweet spot in the 5500-7500 range, but it all depends on the flow capabilities of your header, the hot side of your...

    Cam tuning info and guide

    Sorry to bring an old thread alive from the dead, but I can't seem to figure out why anyone hasn't bothered to correct one major nuance in both sides of this argument. And I believe that you both know that it is completely impossible for a 3 liter engine to ingest any more than 3 liters of air...

    how do u know if the rings are seated

    I used to get into the same arguments with J and JJ, I eventually did a ton of research myself, and realized that what I did personally was not backed by any real hard facts. I still feel weird about leaving oil in that long. I'm going with a bypass filtration setup on my next build, and I think...

    blitz DSBC

    We're really big fans of the AVC-R... Although, I'll be using the onboard boost controller on the MAFT-Pro soon. Sorry, wish I could help. Dual solonoid or single?

    MDC's Holset/89 turbo silver buildup

    Hy35 all the way Jon. After she's all happy with that, move up to the HX52 with a two step and do a wheelie!

    TIP suspension

    So I've looked at all these different threads soaking in as much as I can about suspension, and it seams that I agree with Tim about the current trends in asian suspension. I am currently running TEIN HA coilovers, and I am 'pleased' with the results but the dampers are quite firm (beyond use...

    Absolutely love the rake! Staggered wheels set it off even more. Beautiful. -Jake

    JT2MA71's Build. Dyno video on post # 1191

    WOW... I just washed all of the drool off of my mouth, so now I'm ready to ask one little question. How did you arrive at the current location of your sump/reservoir? Is it out of necessity, since there is no space to put it elsewhere? I would think that 12 quarts or so of oil sitting that...

    Dim headlight, need info on rewiring.

    Hey guys, I've tried searching, but to no avail. The drivers side headlight on our 91 is stupidly dim, whereas the passenger side is nice and bright. Flipping on the brights makes no difference and I've already swapped out bulbs. I remember talking to Shawndude long ago about how he rewired...

    One more thing to add to my damn list!

    I found you one! It was not in any way our intention to sell you a car with a bum tranny, so give me a call at the shop and we'll talk.

    Having troubles starting.

    I'm still learning here! ;) I did find a 0W-50 full synth, and I intend to test it out. I'll also try using thinner oils with a good oil pressure gauge, and I will use the thinnest oil that will get me the results I'm looking for. At least I did my reading though! I am an engineering student...

    One more thing to add to my damn list!

    I had the first gear thrust washer go out in the last r-154 I had in that car, and that could be what your talking about. It's a whining growl/whirr, only it started in first gear. Eventually first gear would jump out when accelerating, and after first was no longer usable, third started...

    Having troubles starting.

    Toyota calls for 20w-50 in all climates over 70 degrees farenheit. That comes right out of the toyota supra owners manual. Yesterday I did type opinion because I didn't have the proof in front of me and it is out of character for me to speak truth without the facts to back it. Don't believe me...

    One more thing to add to my damn list!

    What? This is not good. That tranny has never given me any flack, in fact it was purchased from an engine builder a few years ago as a low mileage tranny and I put maybe 10K on it since then. Where is the paint chipping? I wish I had another 5 speed to swap for you... Actually, I might be...

    Having troubles starting.

    Sorry Cory, I've been in Texas for the last week and haven't had access to a computer. Guys, Heidi and I have run 50 weight oil since the beginning, and we have good reasons for it. I recommended that he choose an oil anywhere from 0W-50 to 20W-50. I agree that 20 is too thick for a cold...
