    OEM 7m forged internals?

    because forging is merely a manufacturing process, not the be-all and end-all of materials.

    Cooleeze?

    Completely untrue. A diameter reduction will introduce a flow restriction, but it is nowhere near equivalent to the restriction associated with a full section made out of the smaller piping.

    Lexus Throttle Body

    I'd advise against the q45....if you want to use the 7m tps, it is a real pain in the ass. The throttle opening mechanism is also poorly suited to our cars, as the design forces you to have >2" of clearance between the top of the TB and the hood.

    rough cost estimate for machining

    I'd think the minimum should be no less than 2 for something like this where relatively large forces are being applied....

    My restoration project - Rusty 89

    I'll be modifying the stock fan shroud to fit around the pipe. Obviously, the AC fans will no longer be part of the car...I'm pretty confident the upgraded radiator will more than make up for their absence though.

    Ok guys need help on this one

    yeah, I wasn't that sure of it...just thought I'd throw the suggestion out there. What kind of power are you pushing at 16 psi?

    Ok guys need help on this one

    Is there any chance you are exceeding the capacity of the 550cc injectors?(or putting them into a static state above 5k)

    who sells aftermarket gas tank? or should i just pay to get it cleaned?

    like others have said, just get a replacement tank from a clean car. i got a tank a few years back from texas, and it looked brand new inside.

    My restoration project - Rusty 89

    Not really...this was another part that was just easier to make by hand...I took a billet piece of steel and cut it down to the rough shape, drilled the required holes for the mounts/gas port, and ground it down from there. The EGR port pointing directly downward. As for the tubing, I'm...

    Dog Owners - I have a question

    my dog (lab) gets infected ears every now and then...a good squirt in each ear with surolan usually clears things up. You've got to make sure those drops get pretty deep into the dog's ear...don't be afraid to stick the bottle end into the ear...aparently this is ok (as per the vet sister-in-law)

    My restoration project - Rusty 89

    Made some major progress today - cut and tacked together my intercooler piping... all 2.75" mandrel bent. I was surprised how straightforward running the piping was. I scored a box of 20 mandrel bends on ebay for $60 and the system would have been cheap if it wasn't for the 1' section of...

    O-Ringing 7 MGTE Block

    So the copper spark plug electrode has no method of heat transfer and degrades...I can't say I disputed this. (you can't argue that the heat of the spark accelerates this process). Are you trying to tell me that a copper head gasket will be overheated by combustion due to lack of heat transfer...
