Ha you ass you didn't tell me you got one, so what you doing with the other one, the na? Finally going to let me borrow it to replace those rod bearings, got a new set of acls sitting here.

Have a look at the turbo impeller blades, this is what mine was doing a while back and come to find out the blades had chipped on the ends, caused a little bit more lag for the turbo and for it to just run out of power at around 5k or so. It would still give me 10psi. This is probably a long...

Well good luck, as I said I had the worst of luck with bad valve stem seals then blew the turbo afterwards. Oil will make its way from the valve covers to the intake that is the reason people put oil catch tanks on their cars, not a lot but will make its way to the intake, Easy enough and...

Cold start injector interfering? Are you running a wideband? AFR? Are you still running the afm or are you running map/temp (speed density)? If your on speed density the iac being vented will not matter, if you are still running an afm then your maf readings will be off due to the unmetered air.

Wow man that has got to be the most simple form of a wiring diagram I have ever seen it even shows you what pins on the comp go to what on the map ecu2 harnesses. If you cant read these diagrams you should take it to someone who can, because if you need to ever look at the wiring diagrams for...

Hell I say slap it on there and let us know how it turns out. People used to say not to use rock auto pistons because they were cheep so had to be crap, but they were actually good. O and most of the time those cheep kits end up having a felpro head gasket that will hold up fine well for a na...

Best be would probably be exhaust heat wrap and wrap the header. http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/partdetails/DEI/Exhaust/Exhaust_Wraps//12665. I could be wrong but I think the heat the intake dissipates is more that what it takes in from ambient air. So wrapping it would cause the opposite...

I don't care for the old pump and hold stuff, it does not give the best results. Best thing I find for brakes or clutch bleeding is open the bleeder, have someone push the pedal down, then close the bleeder, lift the pedal, rinse and repeat. If you pump the pedal you are "sloshing" the fluid...

Normally the rule is 2 quarts unreduced 1:1 paint, some paints are 2:1 so you have to watch what you are getting. Also there is a big difference in the paint you get. I get a lot of friends that want to go to autozone and pick up paint to save money but the paint will not lay out very well not...

^ same here with 7 different after market ones, have not tried a dealer one yet. Your best off to get a rebuild kit for the master cyl, really you cant use the whole kit because one of the seals is just cut wrong, same reason new ones dont work. I went to the junk yard pulled one off a supra...

My suggestion take it to a local shop usually they will do a coolant pressure test for $20, thats what the price we charged at firestone and at goodyear.

I guess I need to get rolling with mine and get the rest of the body work and paint done, and get the engine back in my wifes so we can come play too. Should be getting the engine back in on hers tonight, and hopefully within a month get mine finished. Looking good guys.

^ hahaah I didn't read anything about a rebuilt engine, just a rebuilt turbo. But as always jetjock nailed it, coolant should always be full unless there is a problem. And even during engine break in you will not burn coolant, if you are that means coolant is passing the head gasket and if...

A bad cap or hole in the coolant hose to reservoir will usually let the coolant keep going into the reservoir but not going back into the engine making it over full. If its at the normal level but rad is low, I would think the cap is still bad since its not taking in coolant from the res, but I...

I don't know about the year differences, but there is a big and a small alternator for these cars, big and small being actual size and also the big one has a higher amp output, sorry cant remember the values.

Wow if you can get enough oil in your cyls to hydro lock the motor then I dont think rings would be the issue because bad rings would let the oil blow back into the crank case. Now 140 does seem low for the compression, but I cant remember what the specs for the engine are, I know I get 180...

Radio noise suppressor is normally what they are called.

Holy crap you are in the exact situation I am in. I got pissed at a "friend" of mine the other day because he keeps asking me when I am going to get my car done, but he always asks me when he is over at my house for me to work on his car. I am winding down on my car with the engine built...

Best is to have a scraper that has replaceable razor blades so if it gets any nicks or scratches you can throw a new blade on it.

I think it will be too small of a turbo, check into the hx35 or hy35 on the forums.
