    will this clutch work?

    Yes, either one will work on an N/A flywheel, the problem is in the release bearing like I posted before.......... What ever the release fork is from is what one you should get. I.E. if the release fork is one from a 87, then go with the kit that is for the 87 or if its from, lets say a...

    will this clutch work?

    the reason that it says 88-97 is that toyota used the same clutch on the N/A MKIV's and the Lexus SC300's

    no spark

    could just be coincedental with the change. when it wount start, try wiggling or shaking the CPS plug and see if it then starts. if it does, then you need to either straight wire the CPS or change to a different plug. This a common problem on Turbos, my thoughts are no to the additional...

    will this clutch work?

    the main differance between the early unit and the late unit is the Release (throw-out) bearing. The late unit had the hub built into the bearing where as the early unit the bearing is seperate and is pressed onto the hub. The rest is directly swappable. The later Pressure Plates are...

    speedometer

    yeah, there is a number of reasons as to why it could be off. For one when set from the factory, they progresively get higher and higher the faster you go. (speeding avoidance) Tire size, gearing, and speedo head unit. are the only things that can cause it to read in error

    Dyno Question

    hhmmmm, never had that problem. I had cars on both and the numbers were pretty much the same. (only a few numbers off and that could be attributed to a lot of different things)

    what do the smog #'s mean?? :o

    I was only posting about the "adding octane booster" and how that will usually hurt you not help you and the trick was to show how that happens.

    what do the smog #'s mean?? :o

    Actually adding octane booster will cause a rise in HC or well tends too. An actual old trick that we use to do her in FL when we had emissions testing was run 87 and advance the hell out of the timing and baby the car to the test center. The low octane and advanced timing helped insure that...

    Can a poorly adjusted TPS affect power?

    yeah, that is a possibility it the linkage and or cable what that far off to not be getting WOT (wide open throttle).

    Can a poorly adjusted TPS affect power?

    The TPS does not measure any air flow amount and the only reason for adjustabillity is for the fuel cut during coast down (also known as decel fuel cut). No a poorly adjusted TPS will not cause any performance issues, just possibly drivability issues and lose of fuel milage by an very small...

    yeah, the 1.2mm is fine as long as you are not cutting the deck or head by any significant amount to drastically alter the comperssion ratio.

    Alarm fuse location???

    Yeah, the wire that you have to ground is pin #13 and it is a blue with orange stripe/tracer wire. if this wire is not grounded, the starter will not work. If you have had to play with the shifter or the wiring in the past to get it to start, the it sounds like the neutral safety switch is...

    Alarm fuse location???

    that is correct, with the fuse pulled, the car should start. The only other thing that I can think of is that the alarm needs to be reset. Put all the fuses back in and lock all the doors, then one by one unlock the driver, then passanger, then open the hatch all with the key. The hatch part...

    Alarm fuse location???

    Sound like there are still grimlins in your wiring. best be is to get rid of the alarm cause it is worthless if the car is a manual trans, cause you can push start the car with the alarm going off. If you search, you will find things about removing the alarm from the car, cause I have...

    SSAutochrome FPR Kit ? Anyone ? Feedback

    I have never used one, and I am not going to stick up for them, but I do know a little something about wholesale pricing and the way that soom manufactures work. The Regulator is a spitting image of the Aeromotive unit, and I know that Aeromotive will sell wholesale and without any labeling...

    Power steering fluid or ATF?

    Yes, with the exception of Honda's, Jag's and IIRC one or two others one being I think Lambo's, its actually better to use ATF (i.e. Dexron any of the levels I, II, III) even in older cars that call for power steering fluid and not ATF. Power Steering fluid and ATF are basically the same, the...

    Got a Problem!

    yeah, that hole is 1/8"BSP. Try to pick up a new plug and thread it in as much as posible with teflon tape on it. It doesnt need to go in very far to seal. Another option (trick) is to retap (chase) the threads with a 1/8BSP tap heavily coated with grease. The trick is to tap just a little...
