    7m vs JZ

    IJ doesn't act alone here. This is a stupid fucking topic that just about always ends in a flame war that causes hard feelings and makes more work for us than we care to deal with. Since this was posted in "Off-Topic", it can only be assumed that this isn't an attempt to have a reasoned...

    Ebay find: Should we buy this car to save it from further "customization"?

    We should start a donation drive, buy it, pour 5 gallons of gasoline on it, burn it and publish the video on YouTube...

    overboost

    Modded elbow and DP will give you quicker spool and will support higher flow, but the stock stuff is capable of way more than 10 psi.

    All my Exes are decent folk - and yours should be, too.

    I get along fine all of my ex-girlfriends and even my ex-wife. I don't talk to any of them often, even the ex-wife. (have no real reason to, kids are all over 21) But we all still get along fine.

    overboost

    I've seen a few that could squeak out 10psi with no mods before hitting fuel cut. With a Lexus and S-AFC, I've seen them hit over 20 on stock fuel (but not for long before either the motor melted down or the turbo blew apart).

    overboost

    If it wasn't stuck all the way open, you can still overboost.

    Need help ASAP please

    Really stupid question - does it have fuel in it? (Running out of gas sounds like that sometimes...) Lean running causes high idle and misfire. Clogged fuel pump or filter? Barring that, start looking for an unmetered air leak.

    Help finding turbo!

    I think you need to start here: Budgeting a build Then go here (and read the linked threads in that thread): How to squeeze extra power out of the 7m Then to get to your actual question, turbo sizing, you're going to have to do a bit of work to find that information. However the bulk...

    3P's TCCS Disassembly/Analysis

    I always disable it. Just run a (high amp fused) heavy gauge 12V lead from the battery and use the FP signal from the harness to switch a trunk mounted relay on and off. Relay triggers whether it's 6V or 12V so it doesn't matter what the ECU tells it, it's always on at 12V when the engine is...

    Last day to watch FRESH for free

    It's definitely worth the watch. And I'll back up what Theresa says -- I'd rather eat the food and eggs that come from our backyard over any of that supermarket crap anyday. If you've never seen the difference in person, you have no idea how dramatic that difference really is...

    i hear crickets...

    I'll caveat this by stating it's opinion, and others might have differing views. Also, we won't get into looks as that's about as subjective a topic as you can get. Some people hate the MKIV and love the MKIII. Others are the inverse. Personally I love the way they both look. With that out of...

    Oil pressure advise...please!!

    Ok, first education. This is the Website Questions section, for questions about the website, not your car. Posting in the proper section helps get your questions answered. I'll move the thread to the appropriate section. Now, to actually answer your car question, is it normal? Maybe. The 7M...

    Improving Factory Brakes

    That patent filing is for a centrifuge. And the patent application for that is from 2006 -- Brake rotors with vanes have been around for 40+ years. That may be the design goal of that specific patent, but it's not the original intent of the original rotor design for automotive brakes...

    As someone who has been there, done that and has the emotional/financial scars to prove it, I couldn't agree more. Here's a good set of litmus tests that you can use for potential partners in a business: Would you feel OK about handing this person your entire life savings, in cash, and...
