A few pics of my engine so far. Should be completed by the end of next week hopefully.

I realize the adverse effects on the environment, my question was pertaining to the car. I would basically want to remove it to clean up the engine bay, just like everyone else does. Kind of the same logic as why do people remove the cats. Yes, its bad for the environment, but then its...

In doing my rebuild was thinkin about removing the charcoal canister. If I did this I would go the plug the line and vent the gas cap route. Does that elminate all the gas fumes, because I'd rather leave it as is if I am going to be smelling fumes. Also how large does the vent hole in the...

I'm riding with my brother coming home from having dinner with our parents. We pull up to a red light and my brother glances in the rearview mirror and goes "I think that's a new Mustang coming up behind us. Turns out to be a GT. So we are sitting side by side at the light and my brother...

Wreckless, thanks. Everything should be good then (fingers crossed), the machine work is excellent and I have ARP studs. ARP recommended to torque it down to 80lbs. So that's what I'll do. I know there are some people that go higher than than but I think should be good. should I worry about...

My engine is currently being rebuilt. The block and head were both machined extremely smooth. The MHG I am using is a 2mm HKS Stopper. From reading the posts I have always read people using either the silver spray or Permatex brake quite to seal the gasket. However my mechanic said a sealent...

You could try Fryer's Auto Upolstery. I have heard of people using them before and they seem pretty reputable. I had them send me some samples in the mail so I could get an exact color match with my interior. I have not purchased anything from them yet though. Just another source to think...

OK thanks, I guess I'll stick with 80 then. Just wondering, Grim have you had any problems with yours being torqued to 100

I know this question has been discussed probably to many times to count, but I thought I would just post this to see what other people have their MHG torqued to. I will be using arp studs and I contacted ARP and they said it should be torqued to 80 lbs. However, I'm on a quest for 500 Hp...

Ya, I did realize the Lex AFM, just raised the fuel cut, I have it on my car with 550s, just wrote the wrong thing. But as far as tuning goes, with fuel computers and things of that nature, I really don't know much. Which is why I was asking about the VPC, and didnt realize it was totally...

I see, just thought there was some major benefit of the VPC, since its so damn expensive....guess not.

Yea I guess I realized that. What I meant was don't people either go with one or the other, either VPC, or the lex afm. If so is there a benefit of one over the other.

Just wondering what the main differences are between these two mods in elminating fuel cut. I know the AFM tricks the fuel computer and the VPC deals with speed density(although not sure what that means). Is there a difference in power gains to be achieved using the two modifications. I...

I agree with suprarcr89. The must haves when I bought my car where manual, targa, and turbo. Without the targa the car would not nearly be as fun to drive. There is nothing like cruising on a nice sunny day with the targa off. Supras were meant to be topless.

Empera, would you suggest the above shop you listed or do you know of any other reliable shops in the area to get a head gasket replaced.

Thanks, I fixed the typo. As for the alarm system, it worked great until I threw the TT into the mix, but I'll deal with it.

I got it working. IHI, you were right I did not ground the purple E - Brake wire. I just grounded it and the manual mode works, along with the auto mode, but thats obvioulsy not accurate cause nothing else is hooked up. The manual feature is just fine for me. I have an aftermarket keyless...

Kwnate, ya you answered my question. I just found something online stating the ebrake wire must be grounded. The diagram I am looking at shows the ebrake wire from the TT tapping into the stock E brake wire. I beleive this is for starter kill incase someone tries to disengage the ebrake...

I am trying to install a Blitz Duel Turbo Timer and am not having luck keeping the car idoling after I take the key out of the ignition. I used a universal wiring harness I bought for the installation. I only hooked up the turbo timer feature and did not mess with the other options the timer...

As the title states I am trying to get my hands on a 87-92 Haynes Repair Manual. My mechanic lost my old one. :icon_evil . Wondering if anyone knew where I could order one.
