    track setup-alignment

    Do you have any time at the track on your current setup? I would start with a stock alignment, hit the track, make mental notes of behavior (oversteer? understeer? any odd or unexpected behavior?), THEN go from there... that way, you will be able to tell if your changes are helping. ;)

    H&R + koni yellow = dump

    I had Koni Yellows on my 88 for about 18 months, paired with Eibach springs. Can't comment on the springs you have, but I'd say your struts might be bad. My Konis were far from bouncy, definitely stiff, if that's what you mean by bouncy. That setup kept my car as tight as a cat pouncing on its...

    What Grinds Your Gears?

    You know what grinds my gears? People who can't be bothered to stop at stop signs. In parking lots, I can kind of understand, depending on the traffic situation. But in neighborhoods and onto major roads? Retards... flat out, impatient retards...

    Masons/freemasons, nutters in general?

    I wouldn't know, they don't let "infidels" in... Closest I've been to it is when I took part in the first annual zombie walk, it was rather amusing when church was letting out that Sunday, to be met with a crowd of hundreds mumbling "brains? brains? no... no brains..." as the crowd shambled on. :p

    Motorcycles - First time buyer/rider

    Good to hear man. Guy mentioned in my post above gets at least 45mpg beating the piss out the bike, he loves it in that respect. Sadly, 2 or 3 of the people he's ridden with have overstepped their capabilities, got overconfident. Be careful out there. :)

    Twin turbo 5vz-fe

    Everything here man. I wouldn't remove a running 7m to put in a v6 in a Supra, but that's just me. If it's already blown though, knock yourself out, just understand that you will need a method of tuning. ;)

    good old 50cent map clamp

    Thanks for correcting me sir, I've never needed to look into it since my car hits fuel cut right at the "you're gonna blow some twins" level...

    wideband hooked up... is this normal?

    f00g00, how did you manage to reduce your boost pressure below the wastegate minimum with an MBC? Very confused by that...

    dumb autometer gauge

    I get that you're upset, but ranting really won't help fix anything about your $25 boost gauge that isn't working, now will it? If something minor like this sets you off, I'd hate to see your posts after you blow up an engine...

    Taillight kill switch....Ghost car

    Dude, didn't I tell you not to mix Kool-Aid in the Clorox bottle? That shit kills brain cells... On topic, if you were to, oh, i dunno... get rear ended, because people don't see your tail lights, don't expect any sympathy on here. ;)

    What Grinds Your Gears?

    Well said sir. My old lady will occasionally point out other girls, but I know she's smart enough to know that I can't keep my eyes closed when I go out in public, sometimes you see things, you know? It happens. Bugs me when people pretend like they don't... Like Ian said though, someone...

    Twin turbo 5vz-fe

    What would you be putting it into? Free motors are rarely a bad thing, but if you don't have a goal in mind, I can see this project snowballing on you...

    good old 50cent map clamp

    Does the 2jz map sensor allow higher boost levels before the stock ecu will cut the fuel? I've never looked into it, mine allows up to ~17-18psi before hitting fuel cut, but I've never been in a hurry to kill my turbos, so I kept it around 12-15psi.

    wideband hooked up... is this normal?

    You can't turn DOWN boost with a boost controller, it will never be lower than the waste gate will allow, at least not at full throttle/load. For what it's worth, I've seen solid 12ish AFR's on stock 370cc injectors at 16psi on my setup, stock everything. It sounds like you have a few things to...

    whats under the hump in the spare tire well

    I pounded mine as flat as I could in a hurry with a small hammer/mallet, but for the life of me... can't remember why I did it.

    dumb autometer gauge

    If you bought it at a retailer, there is a good chance they will take it back or swap out the other one, IF, like 3p points out, it isn't designed to read like that.

    Wait a minute here... are you speaking of that other Mk3 you picked up without a title, or the IS300? if you got an IS for $1000, I don't think anyone on here will be your friend anymore. :p
