Check the torque on your cam saddles. I had this exact problem when my torque wrench took a dump. I had not got them tight enough and it made that exact same knock sound.
I'd bet the farm that's what your problem is.
In the thread it says "needs clearcoat". ....No:nono:, it needs paint. You can't just clearcoat, especially on a metallic, which kills the fact that it's teal, since you'll have to repaint it anyway.
Don't weld it. It's totally mickey-mouse, plug it if you want, but don't weld it.
FPD works the same way the air chambers/water capacitors in your plumbing at home work, they cushion the shock of sudden fuel pressure changes. As an example the dampers in your home plumbing eliminate the...
Unlikely you will find a perfect match even if you had the original dye. Things like color variation, and fade from the sunlight come in to play. The best soloution is to have a paint shop mix up a color match based on the interior parts your trying to match.

If the car didn't squeek, have rattles, and the a/c worked...you'd probably want to keep it.
When I got my supra I did what I had read many times on this forum...fixed/repaired/rebuilt/replaced anything that wasn't right before I even thought about performance mods, this included fixing the...
I wouldn't say it's absoloutely worthless. I mean, there must be some tower flex generated toward the center of the chassis (probably under hard cornering) and it would certainly eliminate that. Obviously, a triangulated strut bar would be more effective, but I haven't seen too many of them.
As long as he's going "old school" with the webbers, why not go centrifigal advance? Haven't seen one of those in a while, and it would keep it "black box" free. Just a thought.
It's really not that hard to install the finished seat covers provided they match the originals.
You will need a "hog tie" tool. Just be really meticulous and go slow. It's also a good idea to take pictures when you're taking the old covers off (don't try to put the new ones on top of the...
Oh man...there are so many variables in that question. Of course your driving habits are going to affect milage (they all get shitty milage if your always in boost). If you can be more specific and list your set-up I think you'll get better input on this one. The two smaller turbos should have...
Looks great, and it looks like you're not rushing it. That's smart.
I've learned over the years to take my time no matter how eager I am (I tend to get excited as a project gets close to completion:runaway:).
In my own experience (as well as observing the experience of others), getting...
Filing a false police report...let let me tell you, happens all the time and almost never gets prosecuted. Too hard to prove, and not a good enough collar to persue with any kind of zeal. Every experienced cop knows this.
I got through about 7 pages of this bullshit and couldn't read anymore. So much cluelessness and bullshit.
Here's the deal in Calif in short:
You can swap in a same year or newer motor of any kind, as long as it was an engine available in the US, and it has all the original smog...
