I usually just tell people who are obviously clueless that it's either "just an old Toyota" or a Celica. For the Camaro guys, just tell them that it's got a twin turbo 875ci v10. :p

Well, if it hasn't been plugged in in 3 years and you haven't noticed anything by now... ;) Honestly though, if a fan isn't spinning to pull/push air, then is it anything but an obstruction to airflow?

Should also make sure your TPS is set right. I've never been all that great with tuning (more of a driver than a mechanic), so I can't give you any definite pointers with that one. Any fuel leak smells?

Well, I say the price is about right for a new catback. The JIC is all stainless, correct? What's holding you back? Worst case scenario, ask about their return policy if you don't like it. Unless it has a silencer in it or a lot of resonators, it's likely going to be loud...

Sounds like I'll be the only one dynoing this year. Exciting stuff haha... all 300hp of stock twin fury! :p Fixed the room thing, thanks for pointing that out. Thought they were gonna charge all $400+ up front, didn't much like that idea. And thanks for sticking up for us on the lunch thing...

Pretty sure those are the same panels that came in 89+ cars, with different inserts. Look the same as Clint's (Zerocool) Recaro interior...

That's what I'm thinking Dylan. Good sounding exhaust for day to day driving, but holy crap was it annoying on road trips... I'm rather a big fan of the Blitz, glad I bought it. Will be putting in a resonator where the cat went, if I wanna go louder, I can always remove the silencer. :)

http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?128087-Desperately-need-a-working-ISCV-for-a-1j! I can almost guarantee you that it's your ISCV. Read through the above thread, give the ideas a try and report back. My suggestion works for me, Albert, and Gurley, but not for Chip, so take that...

Last I heard, JIC's closing up shop, so you might have trouble finding one. HPF sells them for $950+, the price on the link is quite a bit better than that, you might consider contacting them to see if they're even still available...

I can't speak for the 87/88 wing, but the 89+ wing has three parts: CENTER-two brackets on the sides that the wing screws into from the side, two nuts that go on the studs in the center of the wing, and a third hole that the wiring for the third brake light goes through. SIDES-there are two...

Try taking your exhaust off at the cat and drive it around the block. Spool it up once or twice, you'll understand what we mean about the turbo being quieter when the exhaust is quieter. Open DP = LOUD turbo sounds. Almost sounds like a diesel unfortunately... Although when I switched catbacks...

Just reserved our room, dyno slot, and lunch at the scenic drive. Keith, I have a couple questions though... First off, with the room, I could only really afford to reserve the first couple nights at this time. We'll be staying the entire time, I just wanted to be sure we'd be able to get the...

Drove an HKS Turbo Sport exhaust from Mesa, AZ, to Vegas for SILV08. Eventually I had to let a friend drive, the thing was so quiet it was putting me to sleep. FYI, 1j's are naturally raspy engines, they're louder than a 7m for whatever reason... Rather than a test pipe, I would suggest a...

Very awesome of you to get this on here man, thanks! Wonder if there's one for the 1j posted somewhere?

Heh, I bet nobody expects your car to be fast... I approve. :D

Just picked this up last week... a couple test fitting pics from my phone. About 99% sure it's gonna be body color. If my car were black or white I might keep it black, but the blue/purple doesn't mesh quite as well with black accents.

$1000 to have 600whp? Keep us posted on how well that works out for ya. :)

You forgot the mullet. ;) Seriously though, where are you finding LS2's for $1000? Or are you talking L98's?

Glad to help, even if it does twist undies on occasion. :) So, I don't think you ever mentioned, but what sort of Volvo is this 1j in anyway? Definitely a cool idea...

Good advice. I deeply regret selling my 88, sold it under a very similar set of feelings... I guess with mine, nothing was wrong with the car, but lots was wrong with the owner at the time. ;)
