    Probe Forged Pistons: You want 'em? GB!

    I did think of that too, only thing I'm worried about is what if I currently run 0.5mm and I may also need any kind of machining/resurfaceing of my cylinders? I may end up with bigger than 0.5mm bore...

    Hmmm I really wanna get a set of these as this is the best compromise ever on forged pistons compared to stock longevity, smooth operation etc. Only problem is I have no idea what's my cylinders ID after my rebuilt...:icon_conf It has been so long afterall - like 4-5 years ago- so it's...

    Urethane foam injection for increased chassis rigidity...?

    You actually got me going there! I'm so easy some times aren't I? :icon_razz Acid clean??? That's a bit extreme don't you think? Let alone the fact that cleaning the inside of the frame rails with anything else than air blasting is next to impossible.

    Urethane foam injection for increased chassis rigidity...?

    I still believe that the ridgidity issue is a fact to be honest. It does make sense too. These shallow frames are far more densier now and this will definatelly affect the actual chassis ridgidity, there's no question about that.

    Urethane foam injection for increased chassis rigidity...?

    Well that's an enclosed space designated product so that's what they should advertise but I guess it's just another marketing gimmick.

    Found these as an alternate option on coils http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190104082213&fromMakeTrack=true. Seller says they're made by standard motor. What do you people think?

    2008 Supra MKIII - Project 1BYDFALT

    Well a pair of stock CT26s would be out of the question really, too big for the amount of air our 6pots produce. Now I'm far from what you call a "turbo's expert", the little relative knowledge I have, I gathered it in the forums from other helpfull members that actually have a clue and a bit...

    2008 Supra MKIII - Project 1BYDFALT

    MKIII-DRIFTKING have you checked the GT28R compressor maps? I think these as a pair will result in a laggy combination. These two look ok but only just; http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarrett/catelog/Turbochargers/GT28/GT2854R_471171_9.htm ...

    Lightweight flywheel worth it?

    Wardog that's the same flywheel that I got! Could you please elaborate on how the car feels now and what's it like compared to the stock setup?

    Lightweight flywheel worth it?

    Is it true that a LW flywheel would add some lag on the engine's response and become more rev happy based on the fact that as it is of a lesser mass it will have less inertia? BTW I'm not a hater, I actually just got a new chro-moly LW flywheel but I'm just wondering if the above is a fact.
