    Or an under torque, if he used 30W motor oil, but he didn't say now, did he?

    need some help with Head advice/HG

    Maybe you should have clarified from the beginning? Then this past page wouldn't have been here ;). And you're still wrong, why do you insist on overtorquing (if using moly) or undertorquing (if using motor oil) the Head bolts? You still are leaving out critical info in something as...

    i am trying to post stuff without looking retarded. wish me luck.

    I can believe this. This should get interesting if what you propose comes to pass ;). Ah, gotta love the entertainment this place gives me at times. I'm curious about the whole engine swapping stories as well.

    need some help with Head advice/HG

    Wow. Have a try at searching, like, checking out what jdub actually drives as a car. GE motor huh? Better add a "T" in there and a few hundred extra wheel horsepower on top of the crank HP a GE puts down ;). I still see no proof of your vast 7M know how.

    Supra Steering wheel re-covered!!!

    Ever driven a car with wood grain steering wheel? They have a coating on them similar to what the CF inserts will have. I have sweaty hand syndrome and haven't had a problem with slippage on a wood grain steering wheel. Granted I've never driven a car with a CF insert steering wheel, but the...

    Supra Steering wheel re-covered!!!

    Do you have sweaty hand syndrome? I really don't see how you're going to loose grip with the wheel unless you have noodle hands... :dunno:

    And how many 7M's have you built that have withstood thousands of miles of driving/racing??? Wake up boy, provide your proof or shut it.

    Sound of TiAL BOV

    IIRC from looking at too_stand's 1JZ in person, and how much vacuum it pulls at idle, I'd say the 9 lb spring is what's recommended, but Mike's 1JZ was pulling around 10-15 in/Hg IIRC.

    Supra Steering wheel re-covered!!!

    This ain't no racing wheel son, it's a DD wheel. How ofter do your hands stray from the 9 o'clockish and 3 o'clockish positions? Or do you do the gangster lean, one hand on top of the wheel-style driving? :sarcasm:

    Where should I put my aftermarket BOV?

    That video is a little dated. It was advised to me, directly from the designer of the BOV, that the port on the side needs to be plumbed into a source of boost as close to the turbo as possible, preferably tee'd into the same line as the wastegate port (I however advise against that port as the...

    Do you want Energy Suspension Poly Bushings? READ HERE.

    No, I've seen one a few years back with Red Dragon on the front cover (if I'm remembering the user name correctly). Oh, and the MKIV isn't the big brother of the MKIII, it's the child of the MKIII ;) Red Dragon's gallery here.

    Supra Steering wheel re-covered!!!

    Considering the quality of work done, I doubt most of you will be able to match his end result. Also considering these people probably do this for a living, need to pay bills and such, the price is fair. Let's think this through... $900.00 for a new factory one, $190.00 for this one with a core...
