    Aristo water pump ground?

    I have a 2JZGTE Aristo motor and I am doing a swap into my MK3 Supra. So there is this large gauge wire that has been cut off when the engine was pulled from the Aristo I assume. All that is left is this short piece of 6 gauge wire and I think it is a ground wire. It's on one of the bolts for...

    Cobra brake kit questions???

    I have 17x8 zero offset American Racing Torqlites and I had to grind the edge off the caliper a little bit. No big deal. My rims are kind of a flat face style.

    how and where do i get an lsd?

    Many people drifting their car have welded diffs or fully locked diffs. I want this because I drift my car. But I also like spirited driving on highways and stuff. So I don't think I would be happy with my car if I just went and locked the diff. I personally need to find a reasonable compromise...

    I have not corner weighed my car. I don't believe I have the ability or tools to do that at this point. But it sounds like a good idea. I did go to the truck scales and weighed the front axle and rear axle. I found it to be 830kg front and 670 kg rear with me in it and a half a tank. But that...

    how and where do i get an lsd?

    When you are going in a straight line then ya, easy for the lsd to hold power. But when you start going around corners (sideways) then one wheel tends to want to spin faster than the other wheel. This is where the lsd does it's job at transferring the power from side to side. If you get the Weir...

    I am all for the weight reduction. But I treat my car like it is a pure race car. AC pump and all that junk was the first to go. I always am thinking about things at the front of the car I can remove or make lighter. Because the front of the car is where the major weight imbalance is. You...

    how and where do i get an lsd?

    Get a JZA70 diff. It is different and I think you need the axles that go with it. But then you could run a OSGiken LSD!

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Wiring clean up. I just need headlights and signals. The fuse box will be relocated inside the car. The battery will be relocated to the rear. It looks like I won't need any of the passenger side wires after this! (doing a 2JZGTE swap soon)

    2JZ vvti oil control valve

    'Tis confusion! This is a very hard question I think. But I need help with this. I got my engine from the importer and the oil control valve for the variable valve timing had the connector broken off somehow. This engine I have is a 2JZ GTE Aristo engine with vvti. I went to the Toyota dealer...

    Non-staggered picture thread...

    It sounds like you want a lot of meat. You need to think about turning the wheels also. Usually if there is issues with turning clearance the wheels hit the front sway bar and the lower control arm at or around full lock. Also the tires can move quite a bit just from hard cornering forces. In my...
