Ah okay, combination of the friction material and the pressure from the plate. Clutch upgrades are very expensive. So essentially looks like my car is going to be in a garage until I fork up ~1000$ for another headgaset and seals and oil system as well as r154 and clutch setup. Unelss I wanna do...

Yeah it's very quiet I never noticed it happening and that last run I did wa sthe same as every other one. Gonna be a winter project I suppose, pull motor, fix starter fix block, maybe get a r154 and a clutch to hold up to maybe 500. Can I just use my act HD pressure plate and got a stronger 6...

Rod knock. Very minor still runs the same but you hear the tapping around 1600. Here's to hoping all I need to do is just replace those bearings!

Welp. Ran again today at 10psi. Looks like a rod bearing gave out on me!

Aha that doesn't look like an r154 with street tires. Dang your thing hooked amazing not hop or spin at all. I'm gonna run it again today and this time remember oh duh me I have a knob to turn the boost down so the clutch doesn't spin! lol.

LOL I looked it up aparently upfgraded ct26 57 trim running twice the boost pressure from factory runs 0.3s faster than oem turbo supra. Somethings probably wrong, clutch and driver mod needed.

Yeah my 60s suck. I never really practiced hard launching on the street I'm often just way too easy on any car I have I have too much mechanical sympathy. But when I'm on the street and know for sure the rear is spinning in first, there's some feedback from the rear, wiggling jerking, little...

I just got done with my runs today! I was 'spinning' all the way down the track up through third. My dad and friend (Dad drove it once, spun a bunhc and gave up) says it's the tires. But to me when I slip and spin a lot you'd think you' dfeel some shutter or wiggle out of the rear but it doesn't...

Here's my current look: http://imgur.com/XF49sbb I only have those wheels for the rear, they're work 3 piece. THey look nice. But I also have another pair of those cheap black ones for hte rear. I think I may just end up cutting cost and use the oem sawblades for a drag tire. One pair with a...

Was considering wheels like these someday especially if I get into dragging/autocrossing a lot and curious to how it would affect my ride versus my 18" and 40 front and 35 rear height tires. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/crr-3428912/overview/ Any pics of wheels like those on the mk3...

I think I'd just do a light spin tires to clean them off for sure. I'm just scared of the adrenaline making me screw uphaha, the car already gives me adrenline just driving it. When I launch I'm definitely gonna ride the clutch a little longer instead of a hard dump on the w58. My clutch is...

I'm attending the Import Alliance fall meet at beach bend and entering my vehicle in the drag and my dad might take it in autox. This will be my first time. My mk3: ct26 albert 57trim @ ~12-14psi (Cheapo autozone meter that sits at -4psi), lex/550s, intake 3" exhaust with open cutout, Head...

Ha. I'm so tempted to waste all my money right now on buying a used blitz supercharger kit of my toyota yaris. 170hp out of a 2200lbs car LOL. Keep the exhaust quiet and stock looking. And just pull away from someone with a supercharger whine.

Nice. I figured it would be around 350ish bhp. I've noticed that too, my old ct26 would have crazy torque output 3k-5k and fall off, the pressure would drop greatly at higher rpm. This new one sticks and the higher you rev th emore power it's sick. TOo excited to get my exhaust back on, mess...

I've seen people talk about a screw on the lex but I cannot for the life of me possibly find one on mine, where other's show there's it's just a circular blocked piece of metal on mine. Doesn't seem to just be a cover either. Edit: Ah I'm seeing people had to drill it out to get to the screw. I...

Okay. I mean I know it's not a set HP but air flow is proportionate to overall power, so it would still be a +- 30 hp I'd think. Yeah next step is piggy back and that's about as far as I can run my car. I have a DM IC with universal piping waiting to go in to but if I can already hit fuel cut I...

Sorry if I wasn't clear. Currently I have a 57 trim t04e ct26. Open 3" DDP until I get my exhaust back on, 550s/lex mod. I hit fuel cut at ~14+ psi. At how much power roughly does the lex afm tell the ecu to cut fuel?

I got my albert 57 trim the other day installed it everything great, finally sticks at 7 psi like stock instead of all over the place with my last turbo, which spooled slower than the t04e somehow. (Must not be in the best shape). Anyways got a cheap manual boost controller that people have had...

Hey going to be buying a friends ct26 57 trim albert turbo as well as his new DM Ic kit. As I have to move the oil cooler I figure it would be a good idea to replace it. Does anyone else find this necessary? How many rows would be necessary or sufficient for it? Where would you reccomend getting...

Sorry I disappeared for a bit. But now I'm looking for new tires to replace my front tires. I'm pretty sure their 225 40 r18s. In the rear I have Falken Azenis Track DOT tires. This car is going to be used for weekend cruises or some days on the track or drag strip, basically whatever I can get...
