    Toyota Red Coolant = ?

    This debate has gone on for ages that the Green is the same as Toyota Red just with a different dye, this is my own personal experience with it. I bought a brand new Block and Head built the motor up and ran it with Green, 4000 Km's later I broke something and pulled the head, I was STUNNED...

    my oil cooler setup

    I think Byron's one would have a better chance if mounted under the headlight on the other end of the circuit as it's going to heatsoak from the Turbo/header being so close. 3p: I think my bud's one came of a Jza80.

    my oil cooler setup

    Makes a lot of sense if the cooling system isn't 20 years old and marginal ;) Even if you mount up a real Air to Air Oil cooler in front of the rad you're still stressing the engine cooling as you're preheating the air going through the rad. It's all about heat rejection xxx BTU's have to...

    Aftermarket suspension arms and bars?

    Rob" "Poorly designed parts" are the norm not the exception as is the wrong material choice and it's treatment after working so I tend to shy away from Aluminium suspension parts as my life depends on them being right. Use the wrong radius tip in the lathe or the mill and you're introducing a...

    I defer to you on this one Kai :) Most of my stuff is new or has been cleaned at the machine shop, it's been a long time since I've had to remove carbon and gunk. I'll keep the oven cleaner thing in mind.

    7m head. Machine asembeld or not?

    Only concern I'd have doing it assembled is the Oil port to the Cams, I'd fill it with heavy grease before they started cutting then blow it out from the Cam side when done.

    New Engine, Cracked Block, Fixable?

    "If" you have access to the root of the crack you could drill a small hole to prevent it continuing then Silver Braze the crack shut after thorough cleaning and that would stop it in it's tracks but that hinges on the "if".

    Aftermarket suspension arms and bars?

    Motorsports is a very different environment to road use.... Cars are also inspected at regular intervals and the duration just isn't there. Road car can do 60K Km's a year easily a race car might be 1/10th of that if endurance raced. Work hardening is a time issue with aluminium.
