    Driving expectations with a new 154

    Wondering what if any difference I can expect by having switched from a W58 to an R154. I have a Bpu 1jz and a 4:30 NA rear end. I notice the gear ratios are different between the trannys. I have also heard that the R154 is more knotchy,but what I am curious about is power and drivability .

    American-only hours at Bellingham Costco

    Yes , I am saying that the title of the Facebook page is meant to grab attention. much like Salman Rushdie did with the Satanic verses. If it stated the truer intention no one would have payed attention to it or the issues it addresses as evidenced by the situation in the first place.

The point is Whatcom County where Bellingham is located needs to take the business taxes and revamp its infrastructure and allow the bigger shopping centers more room to expand. To...

    oem toyota 13in/336mm rotors??

    Surprised there isn't more flaming here. I am leaning more towards pick and pull parts, I would rather not spend a lot of money on parts if it isn't going to work. I will look into those options if and when I attempt the final project.
