    So you're basicly looking at an AK-74. It's a smaller high velocity round that was developed because of pressure (i.e. the Americans use a small high velocity round, why don't we?).

    7mgte pistons and crank in a 7mge?

    In this case, he's better off rigging the snout. If you're going to pull the engine and replace bearings and crank only to do it over again soon it's a waste of time/money.

    I think I found a pic of Mike's computer room...

    Can't be, I don't see a stripper pole :rofl: Damn, there's some serious hardware in that place (if it's all real). - M79 "Thumper" - M2 .50 cal - AT4 anti-tank - HK PSG-1

    Headlight mod... do these fit the bill??

    I have another headlight project that I've put on hold because I don't have the skills to pull it off. Plus, it requires some work on the installer's part that takes it firmly away from being "bolt on." Projector retrofit I could do quite easily if I find the correct housings.

    7mgte pistons and crank in a 7mge?

    It sounds like you want to pull the crank witht he rods and pistons out of the bottom of the GTE block and put them into the GE block. Lots of issues with that: - Pistons won't come out the bottom - All the bearings are select fit, putting them in a different block will throw off tolerances...

    what are these and can i do without them?

    MAP ECU doesn't have timing control, it's a piggyback fuel controller and MAP translator. As such, you won't be able to properly tune around the loss of EGR. MAP ECU 2 can be made to to tune timing as well, but you're making a lot more work for yourself. Why are you removing EGR?

    AFC Neo backlight dimmer flashing?

    Wire into ground instead of positive? IIRC the dimmer runs off the ground circuit and it causes issues with some electronics (had an issue with a headunit once before).

    Headlight mod... do these fit the bill??

    LOL, nah, he's done it on his own car and sounds like he hated it. I don't mind a good project if I can find a way to make it profitable :)

    what are these and can i do without them?

    "I did it and it's fine" doesn't fly here. The ECU is tuned for the EGR to be there. Under part throttle load you run the risk of detonation from the advanced timing and lean condition (as it's expecting inert exhaust gasses to be there). It lowers EGT's as well. You have 4 options: -...

    new seat belt idea

    Local upholstery shops reweb around here IIRC. Webbing is cheap, most of the work is going to be removing your old seat belts for them to replace it.

    Mk3-ae86

    It's older than the Supra, so don't expect it to be less of a project. Age = more parts worn Age = parts are more rare Parts more rare = expensive You're steering away from a civic, but a 90's cvic can be had for cheap, and the same reason the ricer kids love them is why they make great...

    what are these and can i do without them?

    - Stock ECU is tuned for EGR (and no, it doesn't give you more power to remove it). - Fuel pressure VSV helps on hot starts (the one time it doesn't start because you deleted it you're going to hate yourself). - Power steering idle up valve missing might be an issue if you don't give it a...

    new seat belt idea

    Seat belts can be refurbished from a number of places. Last I knew they were still available new as well (but in limited colors).

    The absolute worst looking MK3, ever?

    I do have to admit the way they designed the door hinge is a bit ingenious. But damn it's ugly :rofl:

    I'm assuming it's a used booster?
