First thing you need to understand...this oil or that oil will not produce a HP gain. Eneos makes this claim and if Greddy is too, then they are telling a lie. The "best" oil is what works well in your engine...you determine that with analysis. To be honest, you have no clue if Royal Purple...

Patience herr pudelhund ;)

Why do you "love" Royal Purple? Have you done oil analysis to see whats happening inside your engine with wear metals or to see how fast the oil is breaking down?

You are going to have to trace the wire along the harness visually. Taping the frayed part is not going to do any good at this point, you've burned the insulation off along the rest of the wire and you may have damaged other wires in the harness. If it touches a ground point, it will happen...

The site says a PAO/ester blend, so the base stock is good. Other than that, the info is limited at best...no spec sheet, no viscosity's. I imagine it would be fine to use, but if you are doing it because it says "Greddy" on the bottle, that would be a mistake. I hope it's good at 9.95 a...

It supplies power to a lot of different things from junction box #3 and directly from the fuse: http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=062 (and the next 2 pages) The beauty about this is most wires are green, white/green stripe and green/white stripe. You are...

That is probably from using a 40A fuse in a 15A circuit. To be honest, that was friggin stupid. :3d_frown: Now, you get to replace that entire wire.

This makes bleeding or a complete brake fluid change a breeze: Mityvac 6830

Huh? If the pump pick-ups are covered, why would that be an issue? I can see it at really low tank level, but that would cause the motor to cut from lack of fuel.

The tank needs to be under positive pressure (2 psi to be exact). It prevents the pump(s) from cavitating. The evap system (charcoal canister) provides that positive pressure and the correct tank relief pressure. Using a vented gas cap defeats all that ;)

I would have it coated. A guy that knows what they are doing will have no problem with the valve. Nickle anti-seize on the valve stem/flange pivot hole.

Yep...the fictional HP gain you hear guys talk about when removing the EGR is BS. On a USDM, the EGR does not function in the high RPM area. In your case (with a JDM ECU) and EGR flow at higher RPM, it is a true statement. I would plug the vac line to the modulator on one side and the VSV on...

Nope...at idle the TB plate is positioned behind the vac port that supplies the EGR. Above idle the plate moves, allowing vac to the port. It's mechanical. ;) The USDM doesn't use the EGR VSV at at idle...it's a mechanical vac cut per above. The JDM EDU doesn't have the EGR programming...

A clarification: If you have the EGR installed with the correct vac set-up, exhaust gas will flow above idle...the VSV is not active. The EGR is controlled by vac port positioning inside the TB at lower RPM ops. The USDM ECU cuts EGR flow above ~4000 RPM using the VSV...with a JDM ECU this...

X2 :icon_bigg Refreshing to see it done right. I know one guy who took a belt sander to it :3d_frown:

I'm just the opposite...anytime testimonials are used as the primary basis to determine the worth of a product, my radar goes on full alert. It is THE method snake oil salesmen use to promote a product...90% of the time, it's not what it promises to be. I'm right there with ya as an over 50...

I don't know what you mean by "waited too long", but for a manual tranny, get Red Line MT-90. You will not regret it. Most of the other 75W-90 gears oils out there (including RP and Valvoline) are a GL5 meant for LSD differentials. They contain a friction modifier that can cause the...

If you have read the "many comments" on this product, why ask for more. If it works as advertised, you should be able to remove the present tire balancing weights from your rim. If you are inclined to believe, buy it and remove your weights. A much cleaner look...kinda like removing vac...

At the same diameter? A bit smaller diameter would spin the pump shaft faster...a bit more pressure for a given RPM. And, does it fit the pump shaft with no problem?

Kick - You can check the saddles for flatness with a machinist straight edge.
