I'm having a hard time deciding on a clutch. Right now I'm on an OEM cutch and PP with at least 400 ft/lbs. I'm planning on installing an aluminum flywheel so i need something that would be less prone to welding itself to the flywheel (if possible to avoid). I definately need a sprung disk...

So guys.. I was just wondering if anyone has looked into running the P-45F's or the P45R wheels on the MKIII. The P-45F's would obviously be ideal for the front as the P45R's would be ideal for the rear (18x9.5). The offset is where i'm skeptical. on the F's its +48, on the R's its +30 (which...

i just recently started boosting 20psi from 15psi. Oil is being sprayed everywhere. Is this a sign of bad PCV setup, or turbo seals? or something else?

I made a post a few months ago about my problems with boost creep. It's been a huge struggle for me. My boost quickly rises to 15 psi, and then slowly continues to rise. This is on a SP61GT. So far, I've.. -tested the actuator.. its somewhat finiky. I sent it back to SP and they sent me a...

Hey guys, I run alcohol injection on my supra, I use MAF-T to switch the maps (cut fuel) when the alcohol is being injected. MAF-T does this with a 12v trigger wire. My problem is, the 12v trigger wire is also the power for the pump. This works out fine, except for the momenet while the...

Hey guys and gals, I'm looking for help with my custom wideband gauge I'm gonna give a shot. Basically, I run a zeitronix wideband controller which has an analog output which can be used for hooking up compatable engine managment, and piggybacks (such as MAF Pro). The zeitronix is a wideband...

Hey guys, my cars got this weird smoking habit after I installed my alcohol injection.. or at least.. thats when I noticed it. My turbo is brand new, my heaggasket it good, no other symptoms. the car only smokes after I've been decelerating in gear, and then when I hit the gas I get a nice...

I know this a vague question, but I'm just wondering how much boost all you wonderful people feel I could be safe running. -First of all, I'm workin' with a SP61GT -I'm using the stock manifold, with an aftermarket FMIC -I have a 2mm metal headgasket, the machine shop took off minimal from...

Hey guys, I took my car out for the first pull yesterday with my new alcohol injection, it felt pretty nice and smooth. I get back to my house and the car is idling pretty well, and then i hear clank. Clank, and a few seconds later, Clank. within the next couple minutes i hear clank clank clank...

My heater control valve just burst on me when i was going down the road.. steam everywhere. Anyways, what are its functions, is it simply an open/close valve? I want to replace it as quickly as possibly and I'm thinking I should just remove it and get a little elbow to put in its place.. will...

It was at small dealership. Red 91 automatic turbo, bone stock. It looked like new paint.. the quality of which wasnt that great.. but it looked nice. 104k miles. I stopped in to see how much the guy wanted for it out of curiosity. He's like "oh, thats sold to a guy in Arizona for $9,800. I...

I have an oil leak from the bottom end. It looks like it may be comming from the lower timing case behind the crank pulley. I accidentally clogged the PCV system and blew this seal and a cam seal. I also forgot to put RTV sealant between the front crankcase and the block when i did the...

So i just found out that one of our local skateboard videos got "leaked" onto the internet.. like anyone would give a shit about it anyways. But my friend hosted it on his website. I know a lot of you younger guys used to skate and would probably enjoy this.. its not bad! I have a part, I have...

okay guys, i need help with my boost creep. I have a 15 psi spring for my wastegate, its a SP61GT internal wastegate, and whenever i'm on it full throttle for awhile I'm having boost creep. I hate having to let off when I'm on it, just because somethings not working as it should. I just want to...

Just wondering... I mean everything.. not just the manifold, IC and piping too. I'm considering making it a summer project. I figure i could do it for under $1k?

As the question states, at which point is the stock throttle body a restriction?

I have a question for those of you who may have done this or looked into this, I'm about to replace my alternator and may be converting to a FFIM during the summer, what do you have to do to put the alternator in the AC pump spot? Can you use the alternator belt or do you have to use a different...

So lately i've been having this problem more and more, the past two time i've had it, i've just gotten off work and started up my car when i notice my tail light warning, brake, and battery lights are all lit up. I don't have any idea what this mean and i've re-set the ecu and checked the...

My compressor outlet hose on my turbo is toast, do you guys think i should go buy a toyota OEM hose, or get a 2" ID silicone hose to replace it?

Hey guys, I was thinking about doing a V-mount IC and radiator setup with a FFIM, the only problem is I'd have to cut the support between the headlights where the hood latch is. I dont dig the hoodpins look, so is there any other way to make a latch without the bar between the two headlights?
