When you get def answers, let me know. I someday want to pull apart my gauge cluster and replace the oil pressure and coolant gauges with aftermarket ones, and kinda fab up a cluster. Might just do em all custom, but I too am wondering about coolant and oil, the tach and boost ones are pretty easy

Possibilities are usually all I need though. Im a dam smart kid, I just need ideas and advise. If worst comes to worst, i'll just tear it down and do a stock HG, but I really would rather just pull the block and do my GTE rebuild on it, and get it machined for a MHG so I never have to worry...

You give a lot of great information, :aigo: I know its been messed with, the silicone is messy and I looked at a stock one, and it looked.. stock? haha, mine has been tampered with. Never thought to check the cat once i got it warmed up and ran it a bit, will do soon. Also, that is my...

I totally know what you mean. I cant wait till the day I make enough to afford a new auto, ahh the headaches that will be gone :D

hehe, sry for thread jacking :)

Haha, thats the same for me. I couldnt care less if I lost 10 hp, if it meant that I knew my car would be 3x more reliable. Id sacrifice... oh idk, up to about 15-20 hp for safety, cuz im poor heh

Haha, im not taking it personally at all, I was just perplexed when you said that. Its all good though, you dont know about cats, but you probably know alot more about other stuff I dont have a clue on, but you may not like me because I'm going NA-T haha

I like that method :icon_bigg

Mine was broken when I bought it, and wire tied up. I tied it better :D Trailor park fixes ftw

Haha yea i know, Im just saying, depending on what turbo he uses, he just needs to set the PSI accordingly, then tune it But I'm not expert on turbos, so I have no clue what PSI would be advised with a 57 trim

What I was trying to say, was you cant push too much boost, haha sorry. Too much boost = too much cylinder pressure, or no?

Thats why I said it was all about Boost pressure aaand tune, you silly

Ahh, see I knew I learned something from working at a parts store ;) Well if thiers no o2 sensor, then I might just get this done today. A friends dad is a welder, and has chevy parts out the wazoo from projects, plus a lot of exhaust and a nice welder in his garage. I think i may have...

We just swapped heads on my friends 1g dsm, and we went with a stocker HG, copper spray, and stock head bolts, and so far so good. Thing runs like a dream, and the dumass turned his BC the wrong way and was hitting 20 psi.. did an AWD burnout on accident, and its still looking ok. Jdub has...

Sorry, heres a factual response You can run any turbo on the pistons, and be fine, its all about your boost level, and your tune. Like he said, if thier is no detonation, your pistons should be fine until you push real big numbers. The main key is having it dialed in REAL GOOD.

I'll still have my muffler, so it wont be that bad. And all the cat does is lower emissions, so I dont think that it will affect MPG, unless of course my o2 sensor is housed in the cat, which would suck (it probably is, hope not).

It is? Haha, guess i shouldnt be posting, I figured it would be smaller, but since im an n/a i dont know :P

I know the clutch is hydraulic lol, every manual iv driven was. I drove a volkwagen fox with a 4 speed for a year, drove my moms 02 civic for months (5 speed), and drove a 01 hyundai elantra for a month or so (5 speed). I was just saying I have experience, but maybe no matter how good I am...

Hm... I love my supra, but im beginning to think maybe I should just buy my friends DSM, a hell of a lot easier to make faster for cheap. It came stock forged But then again its only 4 cylinders.. haha

I went to that site, and wow.... all I can say
