Phenolic is a resin, like polyester or epoxy. Its used in a laminate, usually glass fiber. I don't believe it can with stand engine temperatures and its not very strong. Epoxy such as EA934 is good for 350 deg F and is more of a structural adhesives. I'm not sure if it'll make a good gasket...

Surprisingly I didn't see the Greddy Catch Can (I assume its a Greddy) in the EO listings. Is there a CARB number or California Executive Order number that came with the unit? It would be a sticker or placard that may or may have not been attached to the unit. If it does not have an exemption...

As far as the O2 sensor. You will fail everytime both the visual and probably the emissions testing if the O2 is not completely and correctly connected. The O2 sensor is part of what meters the fuel. No inspector will pass you with an O2 wire disconnected, even if its the heater wire. The O2...

Check out this website: http://www.nsxprime.com/FAQ/Performance/brakelines.htm This guy did a lot of research. Just something to consider.

I'm running a Dell 400 MHZ PII. Its plenty fast for the internet. It origianlly came with Windows 98. But I got a full legal XP Pro operating system for $125 and installed it. This comuter is just for the internet. So when things get sour, I just reformat the HD and reload everything. XP...

My friend in a Z club says the first thing they do is throw away the DOT tag on the lines anyway. So no one will know if it was legal or not. If you have a problem with the brake lines rupturing, then I guess you didn't weigh the risks too good. The screw together end fittings are suppose...

Has anyone used the LIPP one with the factory EGR set-up? So if its a direct fit, it attaches just like the factory one? For the cost of the LIPP, I'd get it just for the looks.

The ones that are not DOT approved are not necessarily bad lines. They either can't meet the tamper proof DOT requirements or the company just didn't spend the money to get them approved. Then again, they could be cr.......p. The problem I've heard about the stainless lines is that they burst...

The MVP one won't work with the existing EGR. Does anyone know if the LIPP one at Suprasport will?

I take several thousands of digital high quality pics a year. Mostly of my kids and the events they go to. I wouldn't dream of making a buck off any pic. I even print pics for people on my photo inkjet or get the dye sub prints at Costco to give out. Its my hobby.

Check for leaks in the intake hoses. High HC is usually due to running too rich. So if you have a new O2 sensor you probably have a vaccuum leak somewhere (especially if you're failing at the high RPM test). I had leaks in the intake on my '87 NA>T. The hoses get old, no way around it. The...

You probably don't need 4 full range speakers and a sub. You only need a left and right full range speaker and a sub. The other set of full range speakers just downgrade your audio sound. Use the best sounding full range speaker set-up, probably the larger door set. So technically you only...

I forgot......... Thanks Supra_girl !

Sounds like your going to have to use dirgle's option 1, unless you get a monster amp. There are a lot of monster amps that are designed to run full range speaker and a set of subs. Personally on my every day driver, I use dirgle's option 1 with small 6 ohm studio type near-field monitors in...

Jeff, How much performance would you gain in cams? I was under the impression that cams really won't get much more power. It just moves the power band around. For me, I'm planning on squeezing everything I can out of pump fuel. So cams would give me a little more. I'll be in the buy if the...

Don't tighten them down too much. I used red RTV in the corners. The corners don't have the pressure from the valve cover pushing the gasket into the corner tightly, so its more prone to leak there. You might try loctite or something like that on the threads because the torque is real low and...

I'm not a real big Amsoil fan. They claimed they are the best motor oil for all and commercial vehicles. I signed up so I can get a discount on 10 gallons of diesel motor oil for my 7.3L International powered Ford (ITS THE FAMILY VEHICLE) and the oil didn't work any better than the Chevron...

I guess it depends on why its leaking. If its heavy corrosion in the cylinder bore, then a rebuild kit may not last as long or will leak from the get go. You have to remove the corrosion which opens up the bore diameter. When I was poor, I probably would try the rebuild. But now, I just get...

My master leaked around the carpet. My slave didn't show signs of leaking under the car, but it was bad. Its not air if you drive the car every day, or at least a couple of times a week, never noticed it before or its getting significantly worse quickly. Unless of course you have a leaker.

Oh. Try this....... http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/d/D_25.html I believe its accurate.
