    Get the redline with no addative. I think its called NS. Add your own friction modifier.

    I would call the Amsoil tech line. They would know better than anyone.

    Toyota has already giving tuner shops production models in advance to begin making aftermarket parts. It has factory rolled fenders and other design features with aftermarket modification in mind. http://speedhunters.com/archive/2011/12/01/car-spotlight-gt-gt-modified-scion-fr-s-by-greddy-b.aspx

    The car is only 10" or so longer than the miata but its REALLY wide. Compression is at about 12.5:1. A free flowing intake/exhaust and a tune (A/F and duall VVT-i) will probably yield good results. The car has wide-band type fuel control so it will make it easy.

    This has got to be one of the best collaborations EVER, from a marketing and consumer standpoint. Deciding which on to get will be down to service, styling, brand loyalty, or factory tuned packages. What will be weird is that TRD part will work with the BRZ and STI parts will fit the 86...

    Good thing it has a TOYOTA motor. :) Toyota have made boxer engines before, and they have already been in the new forester for about 2 years. They added dual VVT-I and the direct injection fuel system. Something i doubt Subaru could do themselves.

    The new build! Ultimate 10 second street car!

    Is that adapter custom or off the shelf? Look familiar?

    Changing compression does not alter A/F ratio. Even if it changed the ECM can compensate through closed loop fuel control. These cars run rich stock which is safe. Leaning it out will yield more power but you loose that safety net. I'm around 9-1 compression, 7 psi with 91 octane. 87 made it...

    Driftmotion sells a 3" downpipe for $200. Raptor racing sells high flow 3" cats that are 49 state legal. Both of them are vendors here.

    I tapped the extra hole. I ran 2 coaxial cables to the ecu connector and soldered them. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?131371-Mikes-7MGE-T-engine-build&p=1643654&viewfull=1#post1643654

    W58 clutch options ~ 375 ft lbs

    My trans was just rebuilt :) . If i had a choice to buy another clutch with the same rating it would be a 6 puck. The engagement just feels better to me when your driving. :dunno:

    You can slip a 6 puck just like a full face. As long as you get a sprung disc and your not dumping the clutch at redline youll be fine.

    No thats pinion preload. Grab the input flange and wiggle it back and forth, should feel tight. You can also pull the cover and look at where the wear is. It should be in the center. ,

    Problem with the kindle is theres no password protection for purchases .now the the fire is out I'm pretty sure there will be no more development from users or manufactures for the nook anymore.

    The weak link is the crush sleeve. If the lash is good i would just leave it. Just make sure you loctite and torque all the bolts back there.

    W58 clutch options ~ 375 ft lbs

    The clutch is in and i like it! There is about 300 miles on it so far of all city driving. It does chatter in first but once your moving upshifts and downshifts are like butter. I think i can cut the chatter down by replacing my worn out center driveshaft bearing and beefing up the transmission...
