    which oil to use??

    So above all of the types of oil you would recommend the 0w30 German Castrol Synthetic? Would a 0w30 synthetic (German Castrol) work ok year round where I am at? You have changed my views on oil and I am enjoying those links you gave us. Thanks again. edit: (just saw your edit to my...

    which oil to use??

    Great info!!! Which do you prefer JJ: Redline 5w30 or Royal Purple 5w30 ? Would 5w30 be a good choice to run year round in Illinois (Chicago winters)? I don't plan on driving my car in the winter and just starting it at set intervals during that time period. EDIT: I also plan on racing...

    Found a Turbo-A duct...

    Well... there were only 500 of these made... they are 18ish years old... I would think that a lot of them have damaged front ends or have been junked. It would be much easier just to get a replica one rather than go through all of the hassle and pay an arm and a leg for an original one...

    Charcoal Gray SupraMania T-Shirts!!

    I did not know that. I do know that there is also a city next to Saint Charles named Geneva (seems to be a common name). I know of a few other locations / lakes with that name as well. :)

    CHI2K6 ***updated 8/3/06***

    I will definitely be there with or without my Supra. It is all up to my mechanics finishing it on time. The goal for completion is August 1st, giving me around 6-8 days to try and break the beast in, tune it, make sure everything is running good, etc. I took the 4 days off from work so I...

    Yeah, it is around 40 or so miles west of Chicago. It is about 10 miles south of Elgin and about the same distance north of Aurora... It is also around 20ish miles east of Dekalb. So... I can hang out in Dekalb (college town), take a train to Chicago (5 bucks round trip on weekends) or what...

    maft-pro + HKS SSQV BOV install question

    Hey, I am having the Maft-Pro installed in my car with a new HKS SSQV BOV with the upper hardpipe kit. Will I still need to use the HKS recirculation kit if I run the maft-pro in speed density mode so that my AFR does not get screwed up and run richer? I have the recirculation kit but...

    maftpro is working

    I can't remember if this was asked or not in this thread because I went through it a few weeks ago but here goes... Does the AFR auto adjustment with a wideband work only when at WOT or will it also help to keep the AFR at a certain point when cruising? I know that you want to try to keep...

    Engine harness problems...

    I would definitely be interested in this with the additional strength knock sensor wiring. How long do you think a task like this would take? I was hoping to get my car back up and running by August 1st so I can break in the motor fully before the Chicago 2006 August 10th meet. Thanks, Kevin

    How much would it cost roughly for a refurbished engine harness? What is replaced on it when you refurb it? Thanks, Kevin
