I was considering this route if for nothing else than the fact that the TPS on our cars is adjustable unlike dumbass Nissan, who similarly, doesnt like to slot hoods to allow for adjustment either. Not to mention that you can keep the stock connector for the TPS. I'm going to have to look that...
Supra GT is mine..taken in Florida ;)
Second choice I wrote was "BHG WTF"
7M LOL
1JZ LOL
LOL WOT
LOL CAR
HOOKSH (if you have a Type S)
If you have a DSM friend, tell him to get BHG WTF and you can get CRNKWLK
and finally, most people here wont get it, but...
THE GAME
It was...
Great writeup man. Yes I read all of it. I will like to add that circuit breakers are a bit more expensive than fuses, but IMO worth it. Nothing says "hell yes" like not getting stuck somewhere without fuses and a broken fuse.
This is very much true and very embarrassing for me and other 7M fans. Because of this I have had ideas here and there as to how to send better cooling to the #6 cyl as that is most often the problem child, and separately, thinking of different ways to have a more proper, uniform seal of the...
Interesting to see an actual one.
Many years ago, I did some measuring and came up with this. The red parts above were theoretical rain channels.
Also old:
These were done by MkII owner Tanya:
I talked with people randomly that were interested and still one day hope to produce some...
Fuck thats ridiculous..I just found an OEM one from the dealership for $200!
Thanks for the link though, I will continue searching.
On a side note on topic, I'm curious as to whether or not anyone uses smaller fans for their intercooler, oil cooler, etc.
On that note, I'm a huge fan of oil-to-water coolers. I can see why companies (again BMW...I mention because I worked as a tech there for two years) are starting to use them more and more, and now I really want one for my car. There are NO downsides to it, such as over-cooling the oil etc. They...
Having a manual switch teaches you to pay attention to your gauges more; even on my DD I religiously follow them. I know better than to not monitor my car better than that.
Also, yes the engine makes the most heat when you're making power, but you're also going much faster and have much more...
Wouldnt that be more of an argument for them then? Are you referring to limited incoming frontal air or space for a fan?
Same here. Where I live, it may not be as hot as where you live but its no doubt more humid which is often worse.
Also, I dont have a boom boom wikky wikky system in my...
Dont want to get off topic, but I'm pretty sure 1J production ended 06 or 07. They dont make the Mark II Blit anymore and I've looked through all of their available engines on their cars and not seen any I6s
Over the years, I've seen you say many small stupid things; but this one is by far the worst.:nono:
You forget that people will run into barriers and run into other situations where they'd like more power, but, for instance, are limited by perhaps intercooler size etc.
That comment is as...
Wow I'm glad I saw this thread.
Hmmm..this looks familiar..
Repp'n the maroon/black hood combo here too, as well as no grill. I miss the grill: it wasnt till after I took it off I realized that the 89+ grill was ugly, NOT the pre89.
This picture was taken by a man with 25 years experience of...
Check out the percentage of new cars that are using e-fans. BMW I know for sure is phasing engine driven out entirely.
Anyways, like I said, in my situation, I have a switch to personally control when they are or arent on. They quite possibly could take more power from the engine, however...
I dont want to get too far into a shitfit being that its 2:30AM and I'm tired as fuck, but I will say that I personally think e-fans are vastly superior, if nothing else than for saving room and teaching/practicing how to wire shit.
I've had my fans wired directly to the battery and lost power...
Damn I'm glad I saw this.
I'm also interested in this group buy. Is there any way we can start one? I'm gathering a list of parts for the Supra and this one seems to be the most integral. Thanks!
Mercedes or SAAB IIRC. I was told that while working in parts @ BMW. I dont think its for the...
I have two Aisin (read: Toyota OEM) fans on mine that fit the radiator perfectly. I was not the one to convert however, it was the previous owner, but an excellent idea. They are wired to a switch under the dash that I keep on always when around town and turn off on the highway. Such an easy...
I'm not expecting the value to go up, and as long as I can get parts for mine I dont care much if it does...but I do think it has a pretty big chance in the future when the import generation grows up. Look at the explosion of original muscle cars over the past few years...their value has...
