i have a JDM motor, and left the existing pipe on the motor, simply to eliminate another possible point of failure. :) my heater hoses look interesting, though. ;) -shaeff

my car used to be n/a? :) hell, my n/a was fun til i got rodknock. :( congrats on getting your own section! i'll surely pop in here often. -shaeff

kurt, i got the wheel. thanks, it looks great! :) so i'll leave the front and rear glass in, and take out the 1/4's. (side windows i'll just roll down. :)) thanks! -shaeff

hmm. my car doesnt backfire running open downpipe. perhaps you have other issues you need to follow up on. infact, my car sounds georgeous, and doesnt miss a beat with open DP. :) boosting, cruising, idling are all nice and smooth. back when i sleeved the cat on my N/A motor, i ran...

alright. i was already removing all the trim. so i'll also remove the window trim, etc... i've got new front and rear glass (except 1/4 glass) lined up. the new doors have better glass in them, i can get my hands on a perfect windsheild and hatch glass, so i may as well just remove all the trim...

whatthecrapareyoutalkingaboutopendownpipesoundsamazingonthesecarsiwoulddoiteveryayificouldsimplybecauseitsoundsbeautiful :) seriously, though, open downpipe sounds awesome! and it does NOT damage anything... i'm not exactly sure where that information came from, but i'm not about to try...

aw. thanks guys! :) i dont post my day to day kills, (or weekend kills i should say) as they're never anything special. but when i come across something that has work done to it, i get really excited. this was a long-anticipated race, and i went home victorious. it still makes me feel good...

damn! that would be wicked. now, i'm going to ask for everyone's suggestions on the following: should i remove all the window trims, etc... so they can paint under it all? like the hatch glass, and the 1/4 window trim, as well as the windsheild and over the doors? i was planning on...

ok, first off, here are his mods that i know about: JDM silvia SR20 DET swap, solid motor mounts, full 2 3/4" exhaust from the turbo back, FMIC (side to side, and DAMN nice) custom mandrel bent intercooler hardpipes, greddy type S BOV, walbro 255, mandrel bent intake hardpipe, with cone...

basically, just look at where the back seats go down to meet the carpet. the boxes fit in there snugly. :) that's the shape. you can get the same style boxes at like, walmart, or any audioshop, or best buy, etc... -shaeff

you're welcome. :) he had no useful input, he was making people including myself uneasy, and he has no place here with his pointless remarks. i PM'd him with a warning, no reply, still does the same crap. not my loss. :) carry on with your regular scheduled program. i'm sorry to partially...

aaaand you're banned. :) see ya. -shaeff

thanks all, for the kind words! group a, i've already purchased the steering wheel, it's in route as i type this (well, maybe not, it's sunday) but i'm still after a set of euro powerfolding mirrors! i'll shoot you a PM later. :) -shaeff

Blahman2, i've already warned you. you need to chill out. this is a public warning. #2. you're not making a very good name for yourself here. i strongly suggest you tone it down. you seem to be downright ignorant of the fact that i already warned you once... -shaeff

:wiggle: haha, good one, justin! (except for the fact that i've been using PB blaster for years!):) -shaeff

and there were narrowbody ma70's as well... as has been stated several times, none of which were sold in north america. -shaeff

top picture. by "seal packing" they mean FIPG. and by FIPG, i mean FORM IN PLACE GASKET. it's the best. get it in a tube from the toyota dealership. :) http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/em/EM_55.html -shaeff

lookin' good. :) you're idling a bit high, unless that's initial startup. -shaeff

no, you should only have to re-torque if you're using new hardware, and AFTER it's been heat cycled. heat cycling is just when the motor is heated up to operating temp, then cools down. (ie, starting the car, driving around, letting the car cool off) it happens every time you use the car...
