    rear dif. question

    with the 4.3 NA LSD you will probably be sitting at 4000 at 70mph atleast ( I guess). The 4.3 on a turbo is not for gas mileage, its for racing.

    couple of wheel and tire questions

    Looks ok. Good deal for $200 though i guess. For the 7.5" you can probably throw 245s on them

    what brands of spark plug does everyone use?

    Autolite 3923 coppers. After doing alot of searching I found out that those ones were good for me. I will probably be running some more boost later so coppers arent really an advantage right now but I don't mind changing them ever 20,000 as I don't drive too much. btw, copper can ignite at...

    divorced down pipe question

    had anyone done a dyno test between the normal DDP and the rerouted DDP? I'd like to see how much hp you lose by rerouting the ddp.

    I need the truth about painting saw blades

    Funny that you mention the notecard thing, that's exactly what my friend did when he painted his two sets of rims. It worked fine for him as well.

    I need the truth about painting saw blades

    my friend painted his track rims striaght up with no prep. It looks fine from far away but you can tell that he did not prep it if you get closer. if you don't care, just paint them. If you want it to look good, do all the sanding.

    CLEAR REAR INDICATOR CONVERSION.......

    I think that is the amber lense that is for the rear turn signals, right behind the three white lines. This would give the turn signals a white light instead of the amber light (stock bulbs are white). However, this means that if you choose a better aftermarket (LED) amber bulb, it will look...

    Can't Remove Strut Center Nut(pics)

    Yeah, use a towel and vice grips and pull it out. I had a similar problem where the nut on the kyb wouldnt go down enough on the thread to tighten it. So, I just used a couple washers from ACE hardware and then stuck them under there, used the vice grips again. I'm good for right now while I...

    relocating coilpack

    Not really an answer to your question but I heard that the stock wires will work if you mount your coil pack on the back of the engine. You just reverse the order of the wires, so, place the wire for 1 in sparkplug 6. This works because they both fire at the same time.

    Radiator Drain Plug problems

    Well, its the screw part of the drain plug, its actually still in the threading. I'll try to get it out after work today. Hopefully I don't push it into the radiator. I'll update later.

    Radiator Drain Plug problems

    I searched around google about countersinking but I'm still not exactly sure what it is... Anyways, I'm not sure how stuck in there the plastic part is, but I thought about buying a small screw that is reverse-threaded (so that turning it left will tighten it). That way I could screw into the...

    Radiator Drain Plug problems

    I've been leaking coolant slowly after I've been parked for the past two weeks or so. I decided to check it out today because it only starts leaking maybe an hour or two after I turn off the car. Anyways, i found out that my radiator drain plug was not in all the way on, I tried to push it...

    Does anyone run a 2JZ-GE?

    7MGTE is cheaper and it already comes with a turbo and the 2J turbo kits are $$$ and the engine isn't really better than the 7M.

    BIC Downpipe Question

    I'm looking to possibly get a DDP in the near future. Does the ddp get really loud simply by boosting or is it only really loud at full boost? If I had an EBC does that mean that I wouldn't get the loud sound until I hit full boost? Also, has anyone tested the rerouted ddp it see if you lose...

    Check out this sub....

    looks cool. I was looking at the super shallow 8" to save space but now I think I might go for the Bazooka bass tube because I want bass but my speakers aren't that great and I don't need quality sounding equipment. I think it would fit well behind the rear seats.
