    New FAT wheels on the supe :) (pics)

    How well do the 295s fit on the 9.5" wheel? I have 285s mounted on my 9.5", and always thought they looked a little ballooned.

    Best stand-alone to run on a 1J?

    MS is a little bit of a bitch to get working with the 6 COP ignition system though. I run an HKS F-Con V-Pro on m car. It's an amazing system, but it also has an amazingly huge price tag associated with it.

    Haha, I'm such a geek.

    This evening I was wondering if I had the gains properly set on my amplifiers, so I pulled out my oscilloscope, plugged it into the amps, and ran a test-tone through the head unit. These things come in handy :) My old PG amp powering my front components had to be adjusted to a minimal gain...

    your deck :)

    I used to have this old aftermarket Japanese casette radio that the previous owner put in. Damn thing didn't get any north american radio stations. It could pick up a few TV stations though. Then I threw in a radio out of my friend's 2002 Corolla. Plugged right in :). The rear channels on it...

    6.5 speaker pods in an 87?

    You can find them on ebay, or here in the FS section from time to time. Or, you can build your own, it's pretty easy :)

    Where can you buy center armrest covers?

    I just got mine re-wrapped in leather. Got my e-brake boot redone too. My girlfriend's mom is a seamstress, she did it for free :)

    1jz r154 gear box problem and tuning questions

    There is no english 1JZ manual. There's a link around here somewhere to a download of a Japanese one though. I think JohnnyRedline posted it. the 7M adjustment of teh TPS works, just use a shim of 0.6mm

    "SRT-4: Its the fastest"

    I just think to myself "FWDFTL" Haha, I remember last year at the race track, all of the SRT-4 owners complained to the track officials who were announcing the cars as Neons when staging. "We're sorry to all of the SRT owners. It's not a Neon......" It's still a Neon.

    Anybody else get sick over/from the New Years??

    I got too drunk on the 29th, and ended up throwing up all over the side of my bed, then passed out. Didn't even realize it until I got up the next morning. Had to scramble around getting everything in the wash before work. Ah so crazy :) New years was fun though. My friend's birthday is also...

    Replacement Speakers Sound Worse-Advice Please

    If you don't like the Pioneers, you won't like the Infinity References. Speaker selection is a very personal thing. The fact that you said you thought they sounded very tinny indicates that you don't like the hard-cone tweeters they use. Infinity speakers use the same tweeter design, and will...

    1jz r154 gear box problem and tuning questions

    I would check the shifter bushing, that can cause hard shifts if it's damaged. As for the grinding, when it's grinding, try pushing in the clutch while coasting to see if it goes away. If it does, I bet that there's an issue with the clutch assembly, an not the transmission. Your motor is...

    LED tail light conversion, clearcorners.com style. Ideas on how to?

    Shit, now I can't remember what codec I used to encode it. I thought it was a standard intel codec. Anyone else having problems with the video? Easy, it's all about the resistance. Let's take a small example: 1 LED, it has a 3V operating voltage, draws 20mA of current. Let's assume a 12V...

    Spec Stage 2 vs. Centerforce Dual Friction

    I installed a dual friction about 10,000km ago. Pedal feel was more or less stock, holds my 1JZ@14psi. I drive hard, and it's never given me trouble. I slip it from 4k from time to time, and it takes it fine. I've heard of Spec clutches on civics falling appart, but I think that's more...

    Why do people list supra's as a V6?

    I think most engine knowledge in the USA doesn't extend past whatever is under the hoods of their Mustangs and Camaros.

    600 on stock bottom 1j?

    GT40r should do 600whp, and with stock internals, I wouldn't be afraid to rev to 8k, which would give you a wide enough powerband that you wouldn't fall out of boost after a shift, even if the thing doesn't spool until 5k. Of course, it wil spool sooner then that. A GT35r will spool 20+psi...
