Okay, so, i'm bored waiting for my parts to arrive, and i want to DO something with regards to my other car. I want to design a transmission controller, capable of controlling upto 6 solenoids, run by an Atmel AVR Microcontroller. The A340E transmission in the car (MA70 Supra) is a 4-speed...

I'll start off with headphones: http://www.sightandsounduk.com/catalogue/p7710/s148_c143/Headphones/Banded-Headphones/Grado-PS1000.aspx *drools all over himself* The only stipulation is - it can't be a car, it has to be unnecessary and it must be stupidly expensive. Like, a solid gold Parker...

Still having issues when it comes to loading facebook, tracked it down to the fact that static.ak.fbcdn isn't loading at all. If i use https, then FB loads, because the SSL servers are on a different IP. So, tracert with static.ak.fbcdn.net reveals that everything is fine up until the point...

Thought i'd post this up for a definitive answer. Other people have searched high and low for valve shims that are cheaper than Toyota sell them for (€8.73 + 19.6% VAT here in France), and some might know that Ford Zetec engines from 1998 onwards use 25mm shim over bucket lifters. The...

I've got an MA70 PPS Pump, just removed it, but of course, had two O-rings fall off when i disconnected the Union bolt and need to order replacement, but, the diagrams on toyodiy.com aren't amazingly clear, so, which ones do i need...

I know what to clean it with, tools wise (green scourer pad, xacto knife & gasket scraper), but i was going to use kerosene on the cloths to clean up the gunge that's accumulated. However, although the oil & coolant have been drained, is it safe to just go at the surface hammer and tongs, or am...

Why do these things have to hold up the whole job? I swear, in an hour, i've done 4 valves, cleaned, ground in and ready to replace but can i fit the f*cking things back in? NO. I'm still on exhaust valve #1. I can fit ONE collet in, but the spring bends slightly to the side under the...

Thought you guys might be interested in this. Turbo technics supply virtually NO data on this CT26 hybrid - just saying 'it's good for 380hp (crank)'. Therefore, in my estimation, it's a 54 trim or thereabouts? Have a look at the pictures below, judge for yourself: Has 14 fins, 7...

For the fuel pulsation damper - i'm guessing it's either 19 or 22mm, but without a set of calipers, i can't measure (i have no idea where they are). Also - i just CANNOT fathom how to remove the oil feed bolts for the CT26 - i've removed the union bolt next to the oil pressure sender without...

Right - i'm posting this in hopes of a definitive answer. About 3 years ago, the subject was broached in the GE section, again, by me, but i don't think anyone ever got an answer. Basically, i know that stock timing is supposed to be 10' BTDC, however, with people reporting that higher base...

I know the TSRM recommends Dexron II for both the Power Steering and the A340E. However, ATF is INSANELY expensive here ($12 a quart), and obviously, i'm wondering if Dexron III or IV (which are significantly cheaper) are able to be used in both systems. I would like to believe that Dexron III...

Not really! All the power in my office & utility room crapped out this afternoon. Sometimes i've had brownouts where the power will come back on after a second or two, but this took out the whole house. Checked the breaker panel, and noticed the main breaker was off. Switched it back on again...

Now, i'm going by the UK's national lottery/Euromillions, in which all winnings are tax free - so no moans about paying the tax man :icon_razz So - say you were the sole winner of last weeks £76,000,000 jackpot ($118,415,600 US) - what would you DO with all that money? Obviously, since we're...

Okay - now, last night, for some reason, i decided to sift through the collection of Vinyl i have in the library (yes, i have a library in my house). Now, a lot of it is stuff that i've never heard of, or that...well, to be honest, was a bit pants. However, i sorted the wheat from the chaff...

Bear in mind that this was posted by one of their more 'senior' members. Fucking spastic, by the sounds of him: http://www.clubgti.com/FORUM/showthread.php?t=208386 :nono: I mean COME ON!

DONT PANIC! ...at least, i hope not! :( Started the Supe today to bring it back from a friends house, and after about 1/2 a mile, i noticed that the oil pressure was odd. It was 20psi, but barely going any higher. It was also a bit rattlier than usual from cold. I decided to baby it into town...

This was emailed to me - and i LOL'ed: ------- I was recently in (where was it?) Miami? and I have now decided to learn Spanish, so I can understand the check-outs at McDonalds. My next move is to learn whatever it is I need to learn....Polish...
