    Eclipse GT vs 3000GT

    A few weeks ago I met the same guy on the same road except we were both heading to work that morning. We both knew the outcome of the race, but we played tagalong all the way to work doing +80 on this parkway (passing people like they weren't moving, you just don't speed around here ;)). I...

    Bi-Tron Oil Additive...Snake Oil? You be the Judge

    I feel like I'm at pre school again from looking at those crude drawings and explainations of "how it works".

    Boost on replacement OEM headgasket and OEM headbolts?

    First of all do your basic maintenance and upkeep before worrying about that. After you have that done, then you try it out ;).

    Very strange pistons!!

    Proof that just because it's a JDM motor, doesn't mean that it's going to be a good, low mileage, high compression tested engine that will be reliable. This could happen to any engine, be it american 7M or JDM ones. I still can't figure out what the hell it was though that caused that mess...

    Sound of TiAL BOV

    If you're putting a Tial in the supra you must use the stiffest spring they offer (11lb spring) anything less will leak air out of it when not boosting. A healthy supra pulls in 20-25 in/hg at idle and the 11lb. spring is for cars running like +20 in/hg IIRC. ;)

    Sound of TiAL BOV

    If you're thinking of using one, I'd get another BOV like the SSQV to handle the lower boost levels to save you turbo some uneeded stress ;).

    greddy oil filters (opinions)

    Please refer to JJ's Location under his avatar... You are now informed as to what kind of response you can expect from him if misinformation is handed out. I've been corrected by him before. Does that mean I dislike him? No! I think he's a great guy, I like his attitude that he hands out...

    What do you think of this eBay gasket set?

    A few reputable members on here have advised me to use the oem toyota gasket set, and that's what I'm sticking with (except the HG of course ;)).

    Installed exhaust, interesting symptoms.

    Does it feel choppy at higher RPM's? Is the MIL light coming on?

    coil pack mounting

    You could also try out the IS300 coil pack mod that was recently completed and has had no issues so far ;).

    lc-1 display

    I wouldn't get it in fear that it may do some type of damage to the LC-1 or void any warranty that it may have. It's just me, but I'd get the XD-16 gauge for your LC-1 ;).

    The long Awaited SupraHero 1JayZ Build

    Wait a minute, I'm a little confused. What injectors are you using Jay? The extremely large flowing ones, or did they send you some replacements?

    Upgraded oil cooler

    There are a few people on here using the B&M oil cooler, I think it's a "supercooler"? I haven't heard anything bad about them yet. I think IJ uses that one along with a few more. I will probably use it too, but I'm not sure what size the inlet/outlets are...

    Have we talked about this body-kit before?

    The side skirts aren't too bad, but the front bumper protrudes out too much for me, and I'm not really digging so many vent thingies on it either. But I'm not running the body kit, If you like it, get it! Good luck getting it for a decent price. I'm going to attempt a german statement from...
