    Will I need to run race gas with a JDM ECU?

    My guess is he's eliminating EGR...

    7MGTE Turbo A motor on ebay

    Only difference in the oiling system was the location of the cooler (behind the Turbo-A duct as the usual spot is taken up by a larger intercooler). Also, the place where the turbo is marked is not cast in, it's a stamping in a raised section in the pictures and it's untouched on normal CT's...

    7MGTE Turbo A motor on ebay

    Correct, the bare long block is the same as an other 7M-GTE.

    srsly guys. What's up?

    Then we'd just become SF with the "elitist" attitudes.

    srsly guys. What's up?

    So what, lemme get this straight, we shouldn't know about other's people's cars that interest us? It's like knowing about a sports team you like. If you're around a bunch of supra owners the #1 thing they have in common is...... SUPRAS. No shit they're going to talk about it...

    7MGTE Turbo A motor on ebay

    Mine has no mark on the raised section. Also, the MAP sensor is in the back of the manifold, it takes the place of the large freeze plug back there. I'm 99% sure it's a Turbo-A motor as it has all the parts that make it a Turbo-A (and the rest is just normal 7M stuff and always was)...

    7MGTE Turbo A motor on ebay

    Definately has Turbo-A parts on it. 3000 pipe and intake manifold are both Turbo-A... and it looks like it has the "A" mark on the turbo. I don't see the wiring for the AFM coming off the harness where it should be either.

    Help on spring choice!

    Step 1: return Monroes Step 2: buy bilstein/KYB/tokicos (in order of best ot worst, though there will be arguements) After that, spring choice is way too opinion based. How stiff do you want it? How low do you want to go? With the bilsteins you can lower the car on the stock springs as well.

    Building a 2003 WRX for my brothers first car.

    What's the torque curve look like though? I'd image it would burn better at lower RPM leading to more torque. It would be cheaper to make it the simplier way, so there must be a reason it was done. Especially with the rally circuit running restricter plates...

    Synthetic oil in the 7M???

    Too bad all of that info was wrong :3d_frown: 1) This is the wrong part of the forums for this. 2) The info in this thread is nearly universally WRONG. 3) Go read this section of the forums: http://www.supramania.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?108-Motor-Oil-Lubricants-amp-Filtration

    i messed something up, need some help, high idle, rich

    Stock ECU? If so, it makes sense as it's tuned for the heat soak, so now the ECU is confused. I know you don't want to hear that, but the obvious think when working on cars is "what did you change before the issue happened?"

    Building a 2003 WRX for my brothers first car.

    My guess is that is where the injector sits, I see no asshattery, I see smart design as it will help atomization of the fuel and dispersal through the intake charge...

    has anyone used these?

    2 step is to build boost off the line, not to set the revs. You can set revs yourself, it's about learning.

    Rear window defog debugging

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choke_(electronics) Dunno if that will help, but I've had the same issue with my defroster since I bought my car, I gave up after a while since I know the circuit on the window is pretty bad anyway from the crap tint job...

    Can the front swapbar be moved to allow engine clearance?

    Well, you could drop the swaybar mounts down and use adjustable endlinks to make it parallel again. I don't see why you would need to do any of this though...

    Keep in mind the TSRM is a bunch of volumes all about $100 each. But I agree, my Haynes manual sits on a shelf ever since I did my valve cover gaskets when it didn't give a torque spec for the fasteners.
