it's not identical, it's the EXACT ONE, same license plate and all haha... when i sold it to him i sold it for $500, had BHG and found a crack in the block (purple dye). He threw a used block on there, stock head gasket torqued to 90 ft lbs. on stock bolts. He also put a the second cat on...

Well i am getting ready for smog, and i decided to seafoam the car. seafoam in the case, seafoam through vaccum and seafoam in the fuel tank. did the oil first, followed by an OC; no problem. Then did the vac, no problem, not even a misfire code. Then put it in a full tank of gas, and ran it for...

Hello, well i purchased a supra just a few days ago, and it turns out that the secondary cat was gutted out by the previous owner. i tried running it to see if it could pass on one cat, but that's a no go. so i am wondering if there is anyone in Northern Cali, i am located in fremont, that...

Hello everyone, my name is Eric, i used to own a 1989 Turbo which you can see below. That was back in 2005. I am actually shopping around for another MK3, i do miss that car a lot. I used to post on this board then as well, but can't even find my user name in the members list, which lead me...

haha move to a different state? =P no thanks haha i spoke with a Tech that does the Bar Legal Examination in Fremont, Ca. and I was told that if i do a 2JZ and keep it BONE STOCK with all smog equipment, then that engine swap will be legal. But it has to be a USDM 2JZ. same goes for any other...

i know i saw the answer to my question being discussed but not fully answered before, and now i can't seem to find the thread. well sorry for asking again, but is it possible to have the 1JZ swap done, and pass the California Bar Legal stuff?

so welding the spider gears together make both wheels spin during acceleration and deacceleration, isn't that the samething as a 2way lsd? is there a drawback to doing this welding? please dont get mad at me ppl, i'm just looking to learn more information.

why does it mean to weld your rear end? i heard that many people are doing this now as a cheap way to get power transfered to both wheels instead of buying an LSD? er i know it's been done a long time ago but being done more so today. i'm just curious as to how is this done? what is being...

yes you can run 245/50's in the rear, that's what i'm running, then i'm running 225 on the front. my friend is running 255/50s in both front and rear, and we both have stock rims.

yeah there is, my cousin is going to bring her's over today. and my other friend just had the same problem with his 91, and it turned out it was his AFM, that's why i'm sorta jumping to conclusions, but i'll find out today if it starts with my cousins.

should i try cleaning the AFM? or something...if ihaev too i'll buy a new one, but damn so expensive 235..

you know what kinda sucks now, for some reason it won't even start..like it starts but then dies right after. like tah dah - boom, off.....pushing on the gas while doing it doesn't help either... that seems AFM related....

yes it will idle on it's own. i don't know where else i can have a boost leak, new accordian hose, checked my intercooler piping (no cracks)... i forgot what slots i put the paper clip in, to count the code. anyone have the link? i didn't find it on my search. Thanks for the help you guys! =)...

i did, and the AFM is plugged in, and i checked the vaccum hoses, and the vaccum hoses seem to be in the right places as well. one of the tech's at my work right now is saying that i may need a new AFM...

HELP PLEASE! ok ok when i start my car, it starts fine, but when i step on the gas it doesn't rev, it like farts and almost's dies, anyone know what the problem may be, like when i floor the pedal is dies, or when i engage the pedal quickly it dies, er not dies but gets to the point. but when i...

when removing power steering, like the WHOLE system, not just cut the belt... what do i do with the rack, what should i use to plug the holes that the lines go to. anyone know where i could go to get the freon taken out of the AC? i want to remove my AC, since it burns hot and might as well...
