    Engine overheats on highway with AC on

    The way I was brought up (not saying this is right so don't flame me). With the car off and it's cooled down. We use to spin the fan to see how much resistance it had. If it spins freely and has no resistance it could be your problem. I do agree though having no fan shroud is definitely an issue...

    Engine overheats on highway with AC on

    Could the mechanical fan be having issues? I know sometimes they get warn out and don't have any resistance left when you spin them causing the car to run warmer.

    Drain Train Vibration/noise

    Ah your makin me nervous brad lol. I'll do a bit more research before it goes in tonight. I do have the clutch safety switch looped over all the normal JZ stuff. I've considered using the old pressure plate but it's just so rough not sure if it would make the clutch eat itself. I'm a firm...

    Drain Train Vibration/noise

    I think what did it in is I was launching the car back to back causing it to get hott hense the rainbow on my flywheel haha. I'm guessing that just ate away at my clutch material. It's the black pressure plate not the blue one. Have you still heard of the lighter pressure plates causing...

    Went to the drag strip for the first time ever, put down some crappy times, advice?

    Ya with the bigger wheel and the clip I have no idea how it would effect it.

    Auto or 5 speed? not sure if the gear length might effect the load between the two? Just a thought.

    Agreed! It always takes a trip or two at the track to get everything squared away you'll get there!

    Drain Train Vibration/noise

    I've heard the same thing about the drive shaft. I'm just a little leary replacing it right now because I may going to v160 in the future for peace of mind. I'm putting a RPS stage 3 back in the car now and i'm really wondering how long its going to last. I think this one went so fast...

    My dads auto 90t wont peg out the stock boost gauge either. It has cooleze downpipe/turbo elbow and hks sport exhaust. It ususally will boost to 7psi no boost controller. The rpm will climb to redline in his car though.

    New Moldings for MK3?

    I got a set before there customer service went down the toilet :). I agree though there customer service was terrible. When I got my 1st set the part that wraps around the back on both sides had cracked to shit. It took him several months to get a new set shipped to me because he lived so far...
