    I'm no wiring expert at all, so I'm looking for advice.....

    I don't understand how a diode would block *some* voltage allowing the solenoid to partially open? Diodes either allow all or block all voltage/current, depending how they're oriented. Unless you meant resistor??

    STALX Supra - The Ultimate Time Attack MKIII

    Yup, break out the pencil/die grinder and bevel the manifold flange where the ports don't match.

    that age old debate (swapping twins for single).. but with an asterisk.

    Why not pick up another set of used twins to tide you over until your employment decision is made? It'd be silly to spend any more money than that if you're unsure about keeping the car.

    5 years of Supra ownership... How long have you been in the game?

    It'll be 5 years this coming January, only 9 months of actual driving time... :( This year she'll have new life! Never had a clue what these care were until that time!

    First time in the 11's

    Yes, I can read. :) RX7 rims are 2" smaller in diameter (I'm assuming he's running 18's from the pictures), therefore he would have a taller sidewall running the same type of tire (hence, why I wrote "larger sidewall" in the post). Keep up the good work, Jay!

    First time in the 11's

    Congrats Jay, awesome times man! I'm sure you could setup the 2-step in the Stinger and you'd see quicker 60's. Maybe even pick up some RX7 rims and run ET Streets on those (larger sidewall) as well.

    1JZ-GTE Clutch Fan Setups

    Has anyone tried putting a domestic fan blade onto the 2JZ clutch? I know a lot of older vehicles had metal fans and I doubt those flex as much as our plastic ones...

    Life without the internet

    I LOVE when I can get away from all the technology. Wish I could force myself to do it more often on my days off and actually get my ass to the gym... :-\

    Freshly rebuilt 1JZ won't stay running.

    Do you have a fuel pressure gauge on the FPR? You said the previous engine died due to leaning out on 2 cylinders, but are unsure of the cause. Have you checked/replaced your fuel filter??

    I have about $10k cash to play with....investment ideas ???

    Use it as a downpayment on a house or an investment property. Passive income is your best friend. IMO, "investing" in the stock market is not a wise decision unless you're willing to lose the money you've put into it. Income can be made more reliably elsewhere.

    Uza70 running rich help???

    The MAF might not have been the culprit. Test the MAF wiring for continuity from the ECU end to the MAF end of the harness.

    Humidity sucks. Makes it difficult for your sweat to cool you down. :(

    Alternator upgrade for high power stereo...

    Larger power and ground wires do wonders. Not to mention cleaning and wirebrushing all the factory grounding points which have no doubt corroded/rusted over the past ~20 years! :) When buying an alternator for stereo purposes, don't go for the highest advertised amperage rating. These are...

    HID Help

    Yup, it's just too bad their ouput and dispersion is crap. Check out the forums on www.hidplanet.com . You'll find quite a few threads on plug-n-play projectors for H4 housings that actually have output that rivals the FX35; Morimoto Mini-H1 and Morimoto Mini-D2S.

    Does anyone make a torque converter adapter plate to mount a Powerglide to a 2JZ?

    Are you dead set on the powerglide? The reason I ask is because it's "a simple street car, not crazy racecar". Why not a TH350?
