    1" BOV enough for 57 trim?

    Well i just upgraded to 2.5" intercooler pipes, larger intercooler, and 57 trim ct26. I am running this bypass valve http://www.cimotorsports.net/Turbosmart-Kompact-Dual-Port-Universal-Blow-Off-Valve.html I have the 25mm (1") version, but i am using reducers to bring the size down to fit the...

    What kind of kit was it? Unless it was Ishino, Stone, or OEM its gonna have a shitty egr cooler and exhaust manifold gasket. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?108850-Gasket-kits....let-the-truth-be-told/page3&

    Looks sweet keep it up! Super clean lookin. Did you use an OEM gasket for your EGR cooler? If you didn't i recommend that you do a search on that, aftermarket style EGR cooler gaskets tend to blow out and create headache- near impossible to change it with the head on and engine in

    red line water wetter

    Someone had mentioned that it left a residue in the overflow bottle when used with red Toyota coolant, but there was really no proff of it not getting along with the red stuff other than that that i know of.

    92 7mgte dipstick the Best

    i have the one pictured as super easy to read and like hvyman said the flat yellow handled type is so much easier, though that is what i had on my NA and i dont know if it was offered for the turbo version. It is just a flat piece of steel with a line for low and full, plain as day to read...

    Some ass hole broke my mirror today

    I do this too unfortunately the stupid is everywhere, and someone decided to back up into and destroy the new paint on my nose panel:(. Oh well at least they were kind enough to leave with no trace.

    Potential bhg?

    Yes and most times it will from everything that i have read. Pressure test the cooling system and see if it loses pressure. If it does with no visible leaks, bypass the heater core temporarily and see if your problems go away.

    Prepping for a head gasket replacement.

    Don't forget that just because you get it machined doesn't mean it will be good for a mhg, a lot of machine shops seem to cut surfaces pretty rough and that's not what you want for a mhg.

    DIY headgasket questions..again

    Head gasket job is not too difficult just label everything and make sure you buy a complete top end gasket set as you are going to end up destroying most of the gaskets when you take everything apart. Make sure you torque everything to specs. Make sure you replace the EGR cooler gasket while...

    My *sort of* build thread. (PIC WHORE)

    more pics CX Racing intercooler kit, bought it from Zankoku performance for a fraction of the price, fast delivery and all! Kit was pretty good. Intercooler is big and fit relatively well, the supplied brackets are quite a joke and the fitting of the piping is not the best where it all meets...

    7m-ftw build

    One goes just to the upper left of the turbo drain and the other goes at the very front of the block just above where the number stamp is (to the right of the oil filter) Also make sure that one at the back is tightened down and the identical one at the very front was installed or you will have...

    Best cast pistons

    I would go with probe forged personally, as i did. They are very reasonably priced and its a little extra assurance. Seen a lot of cracked pistons threads (usually its the users fault, but if they used forged its likely that it wouldn't have gone so fast)

    CPS replacement shielded harness wire?

    Ya I understand what your saying, but I think I would replace the entire harness before I went in and did all that, its not in the best shape. Problem is that all 4 of the CPS wires have a shielded insulation around them to protect them from interference, so I cant just replace them with plain...

    My *sort of* build thread. (PIC WHORE)

    Cool man glad to hear youre doing well. My project has been a slow process and its still moving along slowly. Plan to make a moderate amount of power nothing crazy as it is still my daily driver and my only car. Let me know when your car is done, it looks like a beast.

    CPS replacement shielded harness wire?

    I cant get any pics now because for the time being I heatshrinked everything- the insulation on the wires basically turned to plastic, cracked, and the wires were shorting to the grounded shield wiring and the car would die. The wires are extremely hard and even when I cut about an inch back and...

    CPS replacement shielded harness wire?

    My CPS wiring is shot where it meets the CPS and i plan to run a new length of wire from about a foot back in the harness. I noticed the stock CPS wiring has a shielded outer insulation, and i was wonder where i could buy some 4 wire shielded wire that would be suitable for this application. I...

    Installed EGR...Interesting Effect on EGT

    This may be a stupid question but has it been proven that the JDM ecu is tuned differently solely for the fact that it has no EGR, or is it all just assumption? If so who looked into the issue and what exactly is different? I have heard timing maps are different but never seen any proof.
