Glad everyone's (and everything, you know what I'm talking about lol) is ok. I'm the only MKIII for a while, too, so I watch what I do because I also fear being remembered. I like how you didn't let it get to you anywhere near as much as most people would have. Props. Edit: Wtf you have a...

See my edits. Both fresh and the 7m with a MHG, they're about even in hp potential.

It's near impossible to smog a 1JZ in California, and impossible to do it legally. It had everything to do with your first post because you had yet to mention what your intentions were with the car. Basic cali swap rules: engine must come from a usdm car (with all emissions equipment) that's of...

You live in California, so the 1JZ idea is out if your car is gonna spend time anywhere besides your garage and the track.

I'm interested in the potential of this engine, too. How much power could I get na-t with stock compression? If the compression changed over the years, I'd be getting a pre-OBDII engine, so what ever compression those came with is "stock." Edit: I'd prefer to get a number in bhp. My goal is...

Anyone ever tried having sex with a peanutbutter sandwich? - from my Archos 5 IT

He's talking about just the cylinder head. Glad you caved OP, lol.

Yep, same for some other brands that I've tried. Eventially I decided that paying more for a linksys was worth not having headaches. It's only been a few weeks, but I don't think I'll have a problem because it's already performing better than the others out the box did.

+1, cars don't exactly get stronger with time. Welcome to SM, pics of car?

Same here. Well, it's not like I'm expecting them to go away within a few weeks. Now the psychological damage... I almost made a craigslist ad when that gasket blew...

My 5k-mile-old felpro egr cooler gasket blew a few weeks ago. It's definitely something that you don't want to change again lol. Toyota part# 25685-42011, $32.35. - from my Archos 5 IT

http://www.ezaccessory.com/Wheel_Adapter_5_Lug_4_5_To_5_Lug_4_75_p/5450-5475.htm, just throwing it out there because I sense your disappointment lol. They're cool looking wheels, you should try to find an aftermarket set that looks like them, should'nt be hard.

Mkiii bolt pattern is indeed 5x114.3, and while you're looking up the bolt pattern for the bimmer wheels find out the width and offset, too. - from my Archos 5 IT

... your non-gearhead friends hate your car solely for the amount of time it keeps you from them, meanwhile you and your other friends have never had so much time to bond.

+1, I do that now too on a regular after the grinding became more frequent and annoying than doubleclutching. I'm not gonna rebuild the tranny though because I dream of a 5 speed auto swap. *Sigh* one day... lol - from my Archos 5 IT

*Sigh* the things that were done back in the day were amazing alone without even considering the lack of tools. Sometimes I feel like now adays we have the resources but the imagination is running out. I'd pay a lot for one. Well... if I could. You are referring to a Group A Supra, right...

Lol, it's the little things that count.

Make this a little more public locally, too. Maybe enough people will also report their experiences with the law there that everyone could agree on voting all the useless people out like Supracentral said.

Yea I was just thinking that... wow! Thanks for the pics, too, I haven't seen alot of those.

Wouldn't it hurt if it wasn't a chewy one?
