    Jerky acceleration...kind of a pulsing feeling.

    Well, I can say I feel a similar light throttle surging when the car is just starting out after sitting over night. I do let it warm up until it sees reasonable oil pressure to allow me to start driving, but for the 1st minute or so I also encounter a wierd surging. One thing I could imagine it...

    Jerky acceleration...kind of a pulsing feeling.

    TRD is probably Denso of some kind, and Denso and NGK are both factory fill options; so either will work well. As far as your jerky acceleration... how much so are we talking, initially you were talking about spark plugs; if a plug doesn't fire you will hear and feel a sputter and it won't be...

    I think the 2JZ belongs in some sort of "unlimited" class when put in a mkiii.

    Rear Windshield Spoiler

    There is very little if any air reaching the spoiler to begin with. This is pretty easily realized when you drive in the rain and the entire back of the car remains bone dry as long as you are moving at any decent speed.

    How long do u idle your car before driving it?

    I let it warm up until the oil pressure gets below 4 kg/cm^2 at idle. My oil analysis comes back with below normal wear (top and bottom end) every time with this method so I think I'll stick with it.

    Foglight rewire question?

    ^You have a front wire defrost? Must make visbility a smidge worse... Yes. No, you're only using the wire to ground the fog light switch.

    Test Pipe?

    I really don't appreciate being associated with the typical maturity of an 18 yr old. To me that is quite the insult, believe it or not.

    Quick question

    Let's not read too much into this... he has a bone stock car with a Blitz DD, what do you really think. ;) It's a long shot to ask but, did you hear compressor surge when you shifted? How about any other time?

    Test Pipe?

    I really can't understand why you are so adement on telling everyone the NUR Spec isn't too long. You obviously know SOME modification has to be made to make it fit... because its too long. What makes it fit best IMO is getting a shorter test pipe (50 bucks from Mieneke for christ sake) so it...

    Which oil do YOU use??

    Once fully warmed (100C) both the 30 and 50 wt showed pretty similar oil pressure. The 20W-50 I ran, got hotter under normal freeway driving then my 0W-30 does during the same ambient temps. The increase in temp made the pressures exactly the same during long trips wether it was a 30 or 50 wt...

    Test Pipe?

    So, it is too long, you just bent the hangers instead of letting it fall where its supposed to by using a shorter test pipe... I based it on the many people who, before I bought mine, warned that it is too long and a shorter test pipe is the best way to fix it. But, if being a pompous fuck...

    Really bad body roll any suggestions "VIDEO INSIDE"

    You fool, replace your blown out destroyed factory installed 20 year old suspension for ANYTHING and it will cure the problem. Get new stock for fuck sake! Oh, and drifting should not be concidered a form of motorsport what-so-ever. It's a complete embarrasment to racing, very similar to NASCAR...

    Test Pipe?

    Nothing with a NUR spec will fit, its not the test pipe thats the problem; its the NUR Spec. Any test pipe thats 2 inches too short will work perfectly.
