    Bring back the Kaminari 3 piece spoiler???

    For floor mats just buy them from Weathertech. Not the prettiest, but will certainly last longer than OEM, plus easy to clean.

    Weird partial boost surging with AEM Truboost

    Upon more research I am finding that a 57 trim is OK on stock fuel as long as I don't exceed fuel cut, which for me is around 10-11 psi depending on weather, but I have seen it spike up to 12 on cold nights as per the max reading on the Truboost. So now my issue is mainly the pulsing/surging of...

    Weird partial boost surging with AEM Truboost

    Some background: Engine was rebuilt three years ago and along with the upgraded 57-trim that went in, I also installed an AEM Truboost. Anytime I was in 0 to low boost, there would be a pulsing noise, sensation as if the wastegate was opening and closing repeatedly. I knew it was related to...

    The technician shortage is getting worse

    ^ I don't think you understand how painful it was to read your post. Three misuses of 'there' and a bonus misuse of 'then'. God help us all. LOL But yeah, most people who understand the cars etc, are also the ones who know that taking a car to the dealership for work is a very very bad idea. As...

    Bring back the Kaminari 3 piece spoiler???

    Awesome! Take your time with development haha, I'm sure all of use can use more time to save up. I'm positive you will need new holes as the design of the kaminari is quite different than OEM on the sides of the center piece.

    Ebony: 91 black 1jzgte (proefi friendly)

    inside the edges of the spoilers and between the spoilers and body. supposed to keep water out from the mounting points etc. I found it easier to seal the mounting points because the spoiler may not always have a perfectly contoured edge to fit the body, in which case the oem protector becomes...

    Ebony: 91 black 1jzgte (proefi friendly)

    Found pics of how I mounted my spoiler: the OEM 'protector' easy to replace with similar stuff front post on the wings, do the same thing with the posts near the back screw through the body All the hardware I bought. Ended up not needing all of it.
