I am doin a low mile motor swap and before I put the new motor in I was gonna do the aftermarket headgasket but not sure exactly what goes into it on this motor. Attached is a pic of the valves/heads is it the gasket that goes directly on the bottom of thease heads? If so it does not seem that...

Okay, I have this LARGE turbo that came off a big truck motor and its a garrett with a .58 cold side according to the stamp on it. I have been researching turbos for a few days now and have come to understand the bigger the number the bigger the turbo. But this turbo that I have is a real giant...

Nice vid BTW!! What is he running for turbo size? What's the COLD and HOT numbers on the housing? cuz it appears to be very large.

T4 TURBO - .60 a/r cold 1.05 HOT I have a CT26 running 18.5 PSI now, (along with alot of other mods) im no turbo expert, how much of an upgrade would one of thoes be over a stock CT 26 w/bc as far as spooling time, airflow and max boost and HP? It comes as a kit with intercooler, wastegate...

Bougth F1 sage 3 clutch put it in, has about 3 K on it now. Clutch is really jumpy, I did not turn flywheel but when I put it in the old flywheel did not seem bad at all now im thinking about having the flywheel refinished is it too late? I mean the clutch started to wear to the old one even...

Say I put a newer N/A motor 30-50K in my turbo car and swaped the intake manifold, exhaust manifold and put the turbo on that motor? The higher compression and the N/A cams would add a good deal of power, probably in the range of about 40 HP? In my opinion Toyota plays it safe with the low...

I have clicking valves, they are most noticable under light throttle, anyway somone told me I could put spacers in there and it would help doctor them up for now, how is that done exactly? I have also herd they could be "loose" How would I go about any kind of fix?

Heres the deal guys, had to goto Emissions today w temp plates and FAILED!! My car is a 88 turbo with 3 inch from turbo into muffler, advanced timing, Lex A/F and filter, BC to 18 PSI, 550's, BOV. I put oil breathers on the valve covers to eliminate the hoses to the accordian pipe, 12 volt fule...

I have a Lex unit and was woundering besides raising F/C what other function would the scew serve in tunning the engine? Does it make a car run richer or leaner depending on the screw position? I just left mine stock setting for now, Whats the deal? I tryed looking it up but couldent find...

I read somewhere u can swap from a turbo cam to a N/A and get more power. How much more power do you get and how long does it take to swap out? Do you just unbold the cam gears and they come out or wut I have never swaped cams on a car

I am going to be gettin my MK3 Supra painted but not sure on the color yet, I was thinking I would see what you guys think! I would go with black but I want a color that will really stick out and get attn. I was thinking WRX metalic blue but its hard to decide on a color when you dont know how...

Anyone using Venom 550 injectos? I just bought some off ebay but they appeared to be used but clean. The part number is the same as the stock ones and they appear to be the same thing. I called the guy and he told me that venom buys old injectors and rebuilds them and changes the jets on the...

So whats the deal? If I want to go aftermarket I need another exhaust manifold OR a adaptor plate for the stock one? What do most people run the "t" series from garret? Do they make adaptors for all the common turbo companys? Does each company use there own adaptor? Whats the more common lower...

On start up my car pukes out a few teaspoons of raw oil out the exhaust when reving (not smoke actualy oil) is this problem with the valve seals?? I also am getting a very slight tick sound from the valves. both problems seem to get better as it warms up

My RX-7 has a switch to keep the pop up lights up all the time, unfortunatly the supra does not. I like the look of the headlights when they stay up all the time but I just figured out how to make the supra also. Turn the headlights on, unplug the plug in the pic and turn off the headlights wala!

I went to take it out and clean it because my car chokes up on cold start but it dont seem to wanna come out, seems like its wedged between the runners and the part that is still inside am I doin somethin wrong, seems like theres not enough room to take it out I turned it and everything. (BTW it...

When I let the engine sit for about 2 days and start it then it takes about 4 seconds of cranking time and then it starts but it shakes and sputters like its choked up with gas or somethin then when I feather the gas and get the rpms up to like 4 and let off its fine. What could possibly be...

Okay there must be somone in here that knows what the timing is suppose to be set to stock? Mine is reading on the 10 degree marker on the crank. So for example going to 15 would be advancing and like 5 would be retarding right? Is 10 the stock setting?

Standing from the passenger side fender looking at the dis at the setting screw moving the dis counterclockwise (down) would be to advance and clockwise (up) retard or vis versa????
