    Mystery Tap/knock. Video, can you identify?

    I have used one before earlier in the summer. I could hear it all the way through the transmission case. Its loudest point i could get to was from the oil pan near cylinder 1/2 or same area on the top near the valve covers.

    Mystery Tap/knock. Video, can you identify?

    No i did not, but thats a good idea. jdub, is there a possibility this could be linked to the oil pump? It COULD be my oil pressure gauge (it is aftermarket cobalt series autometer) but even after i shimmed the oil pump i saw no real noticeable pressure raise and still maintain 0PSI with...

    Mystery Tap/knock. Video, can you identify?

    This problem has been a long time running. The past few months I haven't noticed it at all. GaboonViper85 (tyler) knew it was a concern of mine when tranferring the engine to a new body but saw no metal shavings linking to any type of early rod knock. My head was rebuild with the engine about...

    Ah crap, look what new toy i ended up coming home with yesterday

    Yeah, thats what i've been hearing. I saw the 240hz LG which is cheaper but heard its a pretty crappy TV. Not to mention the contrast ratio is 1/3 of the samsung and 1/5 of the 8000 series. The look (cosmetics) of the LG is superior as well. I have yet to play a bluray on it yet though. No...

    New to the 7MGTE + Intro

    Very nice find. I don't have much time so ill keep it short. Regarding the starting. Check the cold start injector, pull it and clean it. The EGR can gunk it up big time. Also, putting your foot to the floor is completely USELESS. This is an EFI system.

    Air to Water Intercooler?

    I believe they did. I'm referring to the M series specifically. And it was the M-TE actually used 1983-1985. Japanese models only of course.

    Power Steering Mod?

    there already is a small PS cooler on the vehicle. It runs under the stock air box and out in front of the AC condensor. Avoid a braided SS line. There is a 1000+PSi running through those hard lines. Keep them hard.

    Air to Water Intercooler?

    Tid bit of info: An early M series actually came with a W2A IC system STOCK, IIRC it was the 5M, possibly 6, not sure which vehicle it was on either, just remember reading about it in one of the News Feeds on the site.

    Fuel cut with gt35r

    yea, quite a bit on the low side. No AFM will cut at the same as another from what i understand but the lex is ~25% larger and people push over 400whp with them w/o too many issues. Lets assume the intake volume to power relationship is linear for simplification purposes so thats ~325whp on the...

    New better? 7M manifold design?

    Appears pretty much the same as the SSauto mani minus the location of the WG. Didn't know the SSauto had clearance issues. I'm also confused with the pics with the turbo/downpipe. Has nothing to do with that manifold in anyway.
