    G series diff into a Ga70?

    Never heard of a GA70 having an F series thought they were all G's the same as any other A70 car?? (they do have a unique ratio 4.56:1 from memory)

    A/C fan! why does it turn on if my a/c is off?

    Saw the same sort of funky curve comparing my standalone to the Toyota 86.5 gauge, by the time the gauge say's ouch it's all over and you've entered the "annealing zone".

    A/C fan! why does it turn on if my a/c is off?

    hence the countdown...... If the fan is coming on it's running HOT no matter what the stock gauge is saying..

    Subframe bolt Thread?

    As I told SV in a PM grab a head bolt (EVERY 7M owner will have one laying around) they're known to be M12x1.25, lay the theads against the bolt you want to ID if they mesh it's 1.25, if there are more threads it's 1.0 pitch less it's 1.5. These are the 3 common pitches.

    have compressor surge and tried 3 bovs

    Had to shorten the springs in my TurboSmart Type 3 Bov's to stop the T04z surging above 12psi on trailing throttle, also ran a -5 line to a T between both valves so they get a good shot of boost to help keep them closed on boost.

    Looking for advice:Post HG headaches

    There is a logical order to diagnosing an issue based on the symptoms.... Jumping all over the place is a waste ot time and money, you may have noticed I'll give advice in a thread then if it's ignored and the more traditional idiot approch is adopted I never post again.

    Pic request: Upgraded valve cover bolt set up

    Has this motor had the HG done? If so did you remember to RTV the gap between the cover and the block on the deck surface?

    my heater will not work!!!

    If the amplifier in the Climate control unit is dying/dead you won't get hot air even with the valve bypassed as the HVAC unit has an internal mixer door that's controlled by the amp.

    Installing crank timing pulley woodruff key, oil seals, and pressing balancer on?

    Buy a new bolt they're not too exe and it's cheap insurance when you look at the potential damage a wobbly damper can cause.

    Custom short runner manifold

    I think most of the fancy stuff isn't all that effective on boosted engines and is more an NA thing, I tried a bunch of "things" and never saw enough of a benefit to make any of it worthwhile. Have a look how Ron makes his and that's pretty much the template I'd follow it's K.I.S.S.

    My restoration project - Rusty 89

    You can run much larger injectors and still have a nice controlled lean idle, I ran RC 1000cc's in my 7M and even with 280 cams it idled perfectly.

    Looking for advice:Post HG headaches

    The 7M dampers have a habit of spinning on their hub giving a false TDC, as I said earlier check this first as EVERYTHING is based on this..... :nono: If not it's the ashtray..... I may as well pull something out of my ass and guess ..
