    improper valve to cam lobe clearance?

    I do. I think it might be as rayall suggested with the exhaust leak... I let the car warm up, and revved it a few times, and I had smoke coming from the back of the head. Possible EGR cooler gasket blowout, and the rattling I'm hearing could be the bolts vibrating from the turbulence...

    improper valve to cam lobe clearance?

    I think Adrian (Coppershot) was trying to get a bunch of Club Lexus guys to come out. I think that SC's look better than MK4's to be honest. They look more aggressive

    What do you think of this downpipe?

    Oil pan gasket is form in place gasket. you can get it from Toyota for $$$, or you can get something like RTV (but there are better choices than that, I'm sure someone will chime in about that...). The major gaskets... Stone, Cometic, Toyota, Mizumo, etc all have gasket sets. Toyota is...

    F1 Stage 3 clutch

    Belongs here: http://www.supramania.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=46 (fyi) I'd like to hear your review on this clutch a few thousand miles down the road, if possible. Sure it may do well at first, but you don't truly know how good something is until it's been used a while.
