WELL NEX TIEM U NEED 2 LEARND HARDER lol jk...I've only seen it in a magazine or something once, briefly. Only Honda related thing I've ever been remotely interested in. The tech of it was also mentioned similarly in the instance of actual VGT turbos. I did more research on it to find out if it...

42R isnt as responsive as the 35R. No personal experience here, but simple physics etc. 35R isnt meant for as high power either. 42R's peak efficiency is 78%, just behind the 35R's 79%, which is still damn good. T4s are like 72%. My goals are at but not really more than 500rwhp, which the...

The RDX uses a two stage turbo, not an infinitely variable stepless design. Its a fairly simple idea that works I suppose, but not the same.

I believe it. One of the things I'll be doing is running wire loom around my MAFT wires...and I REALLY want to extend the harness so I can leave it inside the car. I dont like it in the engine bay at all

Yeah I was checking what I missed while putting up with that car, and that was among the disappointment I found..I heard nothing but the best about Ron R's work. If you werent so far away I'd sell you my Miata... Is your Supra Red Mica Metallic too? Friend of mine had an 87 "maroon," but it...

If you do, you can get Nitrile ones for free/little cost! I actually forgot about using them because at the time I hadnt planned on getting real dirty and into it. Same reason why I didnt when I started disassembling the rear interior panels covering the tail lights, looking for that pos module...

Yeah, so would I, but whenever "interest threads" pop up, none of us have the money to go through with it. This is why I avoid them unless if I could really use the part and have the money.

Holy crap, wiring it up to the TEMS switch is fucking brilliant! I think I should do that with mine! Anyways, e-fans drain a LOT of power when they are on, and like Nash said, its far easier to get up to temperature with them off. This is why BMW factory shrouds have flaps in them.

I'm so often tempted with how dirty I get from simply touching parts. Obviously I'm going to get grimy and nasty, but its pretty bad. That shot isnt recent enough. I'm also curious as to finding if I can just run blow through and ignore the leaks for now. I've heard nothing but problems always...

Today I went to NAPA, picked up an oil filter, 6 quarts of 10w30, spark plugs, 2 feet of 15/32"s hose (PCV) and some stainless steel worm bolt clamps. Later tonight or tomorrow, I'm going to order a generic set of 2295 zinc-plated steel bolts/nuts/washers etc. I also charged the battery and...

Well, those of us with 7Ms are. 90% of the time, MkIIIs break because of the owners yadda yadda. I'm not going to cheap out now that its my DD and that I care so much about it; I just want the least expensive way to get stuff done right on it; I dont want to spend more than I have to

Not necessarily related, but check your window switch contacts. I didnt even have contact cleaner or a good Brillo pad but I was able to clean them enough to get them working perfect again

Twin scroll/twin entry design. The factory manifold is split like this two, as is probably every turbo car's since the 80s or so. The idea is to get even pulses from the engine and spool the turbo quicker.

BMWs have done that since E36, so 93 or something. The 7 series had a remote filter from the factory in fact. I've definitely considered taking one of their stock setups. I just may do that.

Looks to be old school and/or meant for aircraft. I know my Rajay is. Garrett owns Kelly which owns AiResearch. I dont know the specific hierarchy, but yes thats a Garrett turbo

I'm not your buddy, guy!

Which knob are you talking about? :evil2: HAHA just kidding. Anyways if you get another power seat, they wont have to deal with the stupid knob. On an unrelated note, my DD Miata has my Supra's passenger seat for the drivers seat; its that comfortable. Therefore I store the Miata's driver...

I'm fairly interested in the CM one, now that I saw they also had a relocation kit on their site; two birds with one stone. Is the CM one not reusable?

Indeed. I think I'm just going to stick with NAPA Gold filters and a summit relocating kit.

I thought the micron filtering was ridiculously high, but I havent come across many reusable filters. That was the idea anyways...a decent filtering filter that is reusable. I used the 100k for those of us who've read the incredibly helpful oil info threads in the tech sections and will be...
