What this thread needs, is more Alizee! Whew, MUCH better now!

Sorry, I had PM turned off. It should work now?

:rant2: So I can take a 0.5 liter motorcycle engine, and make everything inside the engine out of lead, so it's super heavy, and I'll get 2000+ ft/lb of torque like fire engines have? I'm not good at math, but 86.0 - 71.5 = ????

Shhh IJ, I was hoping to sell Siman some "magic pixie dust displacement enhancement connecting rods" for big bucks. What man wouldn't want more virile connecting rods with superior length and girth? <I need to update my spam filters>

Hmm, one is not like the other? How do you get the extra stroke without a different crank? Hint......you can't.

1JZ - I6 2492cc - 86.0 bore x 71.5mm stroke 2JZ - I6 2997cc - 86.0 bore x 86.0mm stroke 7M - I6 2954cc - 83.0 bore x 91.0mm stroke Huh, Simman? You cannot create a "stroker" without increasing the "stroke" (obvious no?). You cannot increase the displacement, without increasing either the...

Snoo Snoo? I think I got a "family value pack" of that stuff at Wal-Mart the other day. :icon_razz I have no clue what the answer to your question is. All I know is that it's more important of who you know, than what you know, when it comes to getting a great job. It sucks, but working...

That be my guess. Make sure the steering bump stops are in place. They tend to fall off and make a nasty racket. Part number 43212C: http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/EPC/MKIII_NATO/291410/4802_1.html http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/gallery/frontwheel_back_h.jpg

First, check your computer codes. Second, check your engine compression. Third, check for vacuum leaks. Does it run fine other than that?

Look into a "catch can" or oil/air PCV separators. But yeah, having some oil in there is "normal", if not exactly kosher.

O2 side: Black wires = heater (doesn't matter polarity) Blue wire = sensor output Wiring harness side: Black/Red wire = heater Red/blue = heater White = O2 sensor output (to blue wire on the O2 sensor) The colors on the wires fade and discolor from all the age/heat, so the "brown"...

Don't worry about the bends. A crappy weld that protrudes on the inside of the pipe, will kill any benefit of any routing you can fathom. Concentrate on doing the job done properly, and even a relatively small exhaust will flow very well. Unless you're really wanting a dual exhaust, but are...

Uhm, at least a link to your thread would help. But yeah, I doubt you can hog a fraction of the bandwidth the Tila thread does, so I wouldn't worry about it. :x:

In theory and generally speaking (lots of variables here), synthetics are better because: -they flow better at cold temperatures -they don't thin out as much at higher temperatures, therefore offering more protection in this situation -they last longer before breaking down, so don't need to...

Looks amazing. Awesome body condition from the pics. If you get the interior redone, I'm sneaking up to your place to "borrow" your black beauty. :drool:

Does it do it every time you start it, or just sometimes, or just under certain conditions (heat soak?). Checked the compression lately?

That manual is missing the wiring diagrams, that tell you the colors. VC: + 5 volt from the ECU/ blue wire with red stripe E2: ground -, from the ECU/brown wire P: Signal output from sensor/ red wire with black stripe

Sounds like you're doing it right. The shit always rusts together in record time. Even with all brand new hardware, and using the best synthetic brake grease I can find, the crap self fuses together. Just keep working at it. Only way I could get my old ones off was to cut off the pin, and...

The springs only fit on the correct shocks. You'd have to be trying extremely hard, to mess this up. The larger overall diameter springs go on the front end. They will not fit on the rears anyway though.
