    Awesome! Well in my case I looked for at least a year before I found mine, and in the end it had absolutely everything I wanted, plus it was only a five minute drive away! It was kind of unreal ...

    upgrade fuel pressure regulator?

    I'm wondering about this too... are you talking about something like the HKS AFR? (Air Fuel Ratio Regulator) http://www.hksusa.com/categories/?id=1920 Another question: Can the stock FPR properly regulate the fuel pressure when a higher volume pump like the MKIV or Walbro 255 is used?

    OEM HG Question

    I believe a new toyota headgasket can take more than that if you follow the procedure right with moly lube etc. I am running a stocker at 85lbs (arp bolts) for several months now at 12psi with no problems whatsoever. (knocks on wood lol). Jim

    knock sensor location

    They both screw in clockwise. Sorry I don't have a good picture, the best I could find was a diagram from the EPC: http://cygnusx1.net/supra/library/EPC/MKIII_NATO/291410/8401_1.html Someone should have pics that they can add here. Edit: Aha! Check this thread out...

    I couldn't agree more Brayden! I think your car also takes the cake for lowest on stockers :-)

    Tap size for the 7m block

    My bad, I was thinking "exhaust threads" and I missed the "head studs" bit.

    Another Helicoil question thread

    If you do get helicoils (which I have), make sure you get the screw-lock type. These are designed not to come out when removing the manifold down the road...

    Tap size for the 7m block

    Edit: I read "exhaust threads" by mistake! My bad. The info below is ONLY for exhaust threads. mcmaster-carr is awesome for this stuff! I just did this a couple months ago. Here's the info: mcmaster.com Part # 91732A822 for the repair kit which gives you everything to tap the holes (plus a...

    drag racers. step inside

    Right, and I think the wear-and-tear in that case is caused by the lateral g's exerted on the tire from turning (assuming no crazy camber angles). What I'm chiefly interested in is how to get the largest contact patch on a street radial for drag racing, besides changing the camber. I spend most...

    drag racers. step inside

    Just bringing this thread back from last year :-), dr.J, I have been dropping the pressure on my rear tires (stock) to 20 or 25 psi from 35 to help with traction, even though they are street tires. I run a 1.5 degree negative camber for autox'ing, and this certainly doesn't help for the drag...

    happy birthday Heckler!
