    There is a pileOinfo on the Mk3 swap here tlo has posted a link. If you want to know about an S2000 swap try a Hona Forum ditto on the IS forums again there will be a lot of info available if you take the time to actually look for it and not expect to be spoon fed. Don't make another of...

    J: I think you misunderstood me that looks like it's leaned out under boost and torched itself. Or it's hung a valve open for some reason.

    How did I burn a hole in my valve??

    Lash too tight or a bent valve holding it off the seat.

    northwestsupra's 500hp build

    LOL I'm pretty damn impressed with it even at 5psi :) (mine doesn't have the ported Comp cover) Yeah the distance thing sucks there's so many times I see things here I'd like to be hands on to help but can't due to being on the other side of the planet... NO ONE trusts Honda guys ;)

    My T04z has all that, most of the newer turbo's are 4" inlet. Have a look at this thread for the gasket info I mentioned last post.

    Bedding in new brake pads. (Raining outside)

    Yep was against my better judgement and I made sure the Boss knew this so it couldn't come back on me.

    Should be fine, at worst you'll have to strip the Viton off the gasket and coat it with Copper spray when you reassemble. I started a thread on this awhile back there's a bunch of info in it.

    Rear timing cover the one that goes on the front of the block and is part of the Head Gasket sealing surface. If it's higher then the block HG won't seal. There's a rivet in the HG that holds the head off the block slightly and again the head won't seal. Should have sold the 45 and...

    Modifications for 2JZGTE Swap?

    Because it adds value to the car? Makes the car nicer to drive? You don't use it because you don't have it, if it were in the car you would and wouldn't think twice about it.

    Really hard to tell from those pics but I edited them to get a better look.. Looks like it's a fuel supply issue and/or there was a lash issue in #6. Bit of a chicken and egg thing, did it torch the valve because it was off the seat or did it torch is through being lean? Having driven...

    Bedding in new brake pads. (Raining outside)

    Biggest issue with runout on our rotors is from the lugnuts. ALWAYS use a torque wrench set to 75 ft/lbs to prevent the pulsing pedal feel... As for bedding in pads I just drag the pedal around the speed the car will see the most of until I can smell the resins boiling, I then cruise...

    Trevor: Just had a read through the thread Couple of things I want to ask.. Was the Timing cover surfaced with the Block? Did you remove the rivet at the front of the HKS? You mention spooling it by 1000 rpm? (this was a joke wasn't it?) Why the gt45 for 500rwhp?
