    Removing Stock 2JZ Head Bolts - "10mm bi hexagon wrench" ?

    Here we go guys... These are the results I've found!... I have a 2JZ-GTE out of a newer Supra. Not sure if there is a difference between models though. 12mm Bi hex (12 point) fits but has wiggle room, and I wouldnt want to use this with the way it feels. 12mm triple square fits snug, but...

    Removing Stock 2JZ Head Bolts - "10mm bi hexagon wrench" ?

    Weird. Mine is a 2JZ out of a Supra, and it is for sure NOT 10mm... I have a M12 bit, which fits kinda loose. And I have a triple square 12mm bit, which fits snug. I might just go ahead and try a 6point 12mm then

    Removing Stock 2JZ Head Bolts - "10mm bi hexagon wrench" ?

    Hey I am trying to remove the stock head off my 2JZ-GTE. The manual says to use a "10mm bi hexagon wrench" which MUST be wrong. I have done some reading and many are saying it is a 12point 12mm. I have also read mixed comments about using a triple square. So, I picked up one of these with a...

    New Retrofitsource FX-R Projectors

    About 1/2" yes. More so because of the way they fit into the metal headlight basket, not so much because of the lack of clearance against the rad support when the lights are down (now that the support has been cut). There is absolutely no way to fit these FX-R's without cutting into the rad...

    Wheel decision... Please help!

    I like the look of a clean 5 spoke with a big dish, but with thinner spokes than the 962's.. So, My vote goes to the 521's

    New Retrofitsource FX-R Projectors

    Here is a couple of pics of some progress... Did some test fitting today, had to take the top piece off the headlight (painted cover) and do some trimming and cutting of the plastic and metal underneath. Will have to space the headlights out about 5/8 of an inch forward. And, unfortunately, I...

    New Retrofitsource FX-R Projectors

    Well, I am probably going to have to space them forward 1/2", and "bend" or "hack" the rad support to make them fit. Is there any real negative to cutting into or bending the core support? Will it really make any difference to the structural integrity of the car? It would be kinda cool to be...

    New Retrofitsource FX-R Projectors

    They are FX-R? Too late anyways - you SHOULD retrofit the 7m car as well! I have read briefly on the forums that the Mini D2s fit with about 1/2 inch of clearance behind them to the rad support, and the FX-R are 1/2 longer than the mini D2s. So some trimming of the "headlight basket"? is...

    Boost Logic T4 Manifold

    I am not sure of the exhaust housing as compared to a precision. I just know it will be a .91AR divided with v-band exhaust flange.

    Boost Logic T4 Manifold

    Well maybe an egay manifold with some modification might be in order. I am able to get the boost logic mani for fairly cheap, but if it wont fit, then no point. I am not interested in spending 1500-2500 just for a manifold either.
