If you still have the heat shields for your turbo you should put them back on. The ic pipe going over the exhaust will run into heat soak very quickly without them. Also reflective tape on the underside of the IC pipe will help further.

that brake pedal setup is just down right scary:aigo:

haha no kidding lots are search "challenged"

It would sure stop people like me asking about previously answered questions ;)

wow thats diffinatly impressive for a car with those mods. Obviously someone knows how to launch and bang gears ;)

Personally I like the dupli-color because of its easy spray tips. They also seem to not plug up as easy between coats and spray more evenly. But really... the spray nozzles are GREAT on them.

My other option is to just replace part of the lip. Going to see what all I can do on it today.

Where exactly is this "JDM-Planet" located in Canada?

Has anyone ever cut out the fender lip on the rear quarters instead of rolling them? Ive seen this done on a few different cars as an option to just rolling. Im in the process of removing some minor rust on the fender lips and re-undercoating the wheelwells. The only thing is, I dont think I...

Its sure not going to look like a "well seasoned" drift car any more. Cant wait to see the new look and vids of the MK3 sliding. Keep them coming!

I took some pics of shimming the pump. Pics are pretty straight forward and self explanitory. The shims I used were (3) 6mm washer I believe. They measured out to about 4.86mm and fit perfectly inside the spring retainer bolt. One thing to be careful of is not to bend the pick up or outlet tube...

Sure sounds like you have weak coils. The idea has been kicking around for sometime now and been put off as if it were something in the tune. With it working better using that tight plug gap could point at weak coils too. Seems as though its time to bite the bullet on this one :(

I wonder too why you put in a vucuum gauge for your 1J.

Did you try doing this?

I take it you already attempted backing the timing off and raising the dwell with no luck?

Cant see why you couldnt on a NA. If your oil pressure was lower then spec shimming it to retain factory pressure would be good. It is logical that making the pump push more pressure could shorten its life, but its really only such a minimal amount. The pump would still outlast the life of the...

Did a bunch more work today in the mean time while im waiting for bearings to show up. They were shipped out today so Im hoping they will be here within the next 2 weeks at the most. Ported up the exhaust manifold to turo flange, smoothed out any sharp turn radius' and rough spots that I...

This is what a google search yeilded.. This is a very old thread back from 2007. Does have some useful info in it. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32899

http://www.fuel-injection.com/ECU Specifications_files/Motorsport.pdf 4860, 6860 and 8860 are now available through stinger ^^^ Although I curious if the 8860 with 8 injector drivers is able to be run on the 7m by just "turning off" the other 2 driversd?

By anychance did you plastigauge the main or rod bearings? Those ACL's that were installed, more then likely not machined to fit correctly. Having excessive clearance would cause you spinning a bearing. Plastigauge is your friend in any engine rebuild (especailly with a 7M) OEM bearings and...
