    How long do you idle for?

    Me and the owners-manual agree with IJ and others: Unless it is below freezing, do not let the car idle, just drive it gently untill it warms up.

    How much boost before race gas?

    I ran 17-18psi on 93 for years. I had a stock bottom end with a 2mm headgasket and similar mods to what you have. Before I replaced my engine, I tried boosting over 20psi on puimp gas to see when I could start hearing knock. I was surprised how well it ran until about 21-22psi- that is when I...

    someone with a genuine HKS wastegate could you please....

    Supra Girl, I haven't tried what you suggested. But I can tell you that I have my HKS standard(40mm) wastegate hooked up so that the vacuum line is connected from the side port of the wastegate to the compressor housing. In this configuration the boost holds perfectly up to the spring presssure...

    Best Way To Build An 11 Second 7MGTE

    The 4G63 have great cylinder heads. But who cares when its only 2.0 liters and 4 cylinders. Your limitted by displacement and amount of cylinders(and ports). And why are some people comparing a methonal-powered race car running 50psi to a street car?

    7M Regrets?

    No regrets at all: The 7M has been proven to make big power reliably. The aftermarket has expanded and the prices for performance parts has dropped substantually over the years. I would probably consider an engine swap if there was a direct-fit supra engine that was over 3.0 liters.

    1jz or 2jz which is more reliable?

    It still blows me away how so many retards try doubling there horsepower on a 15-20 year old high milage engine with unknown maintanance. And then they cry about rod knock and swap engines. I can tell you that from 5 years of beating on a rebuilt stock internalled 7M, they have only one flaw...

    HPF Bronze vs ACT organic?? Chatter or not? Need your feedback?

    I have the HPF Bronse with the ACT pressure plate. It will chatter no matter how you break it in. And do not use an aluminum flywheel with this clutch-It will weld to the clutch pucks when it gets to hot. Overall, it's not that bad with just a medium pedal effort. If you can put up with some...

    hard top vs. targa top

    "I hate driving the car with it off, it feels completely different." I felt that way too with all the flex. So I bought one of those Weezle targa bars and it feels nice and solid again.

    Car won't idle/start after BC 264 cam swap

    NP.:) But I do think the problem he is having is the cams (with all the overlap) and not the MAFT-pro.

    Car won't idle/start after BC 264 cam swap

    OK. I don't think in my case since I checked all my shims for proper clearance when I installed the cams.

    hard top vs. targa top

    If I had to do it again I would go with a hardtop instead of my Targa. I do care about weight, and 80 pounds is a lot. I would also prefer a stiffer body. Not to mention that I only use the Targa a few times a year since it's such a pain to take it on and off. But then again, cruising around...

    Car won't idle/start after BC 264 cam swap

    My car would not idle either with the BC264 cams. I had to set the cam gears to +4 intake and -4 exhaust to get it to idle. So obviously there must be lots of overlap with these cams. I also failed emmisions pretty bad. I guess these cams have to be degreed like so many are talking about. I...

    Wastegate Woes

    I have a real HKS 40mm wastegate thats as old as dirt and it holds exactly what the spring is rated for. In my case, 15psi. You need to disconnect your boost controller and only run off of the wastegate. (Just hook a vacuum line from your compressor housing to the side port of your wastegate)...
