    coil pack ground wire?

    It attaches on the coil mounting plate on the drivers side, just forward of the right coil. There's a small hole for the screw.

    ATI Damper Installed

    You guys are welcome...glad to be of help ;) Got it all back together and took her for a test run. Timing issue solved! Any it might just be me, but the motor sounds/feels smoother...you can barely tell it's running at idle. I detailed the engine bay while I was at it...she's looking...

    New Turbo Elbow

    Yep! You nailed it ;) The difference in HP gain between a single piece and full 3" elbow to 3" down pipe is negligible. The difference when you have to take it off is huge!

    ATI Damper Installed

    It's actually torsional harmonic vibration. It's produced when the cylinders fire and the power gets transmitted through the crankshaft, which then takes the brunt of this impact. This causes a twisting motion, the resistance of the crank shaft snaps back to produce vibration. Since there a...

    ATI Damper Installed

    They don't include a crank bolt for any damper they sell...turning the stock one down took 10 minutes max. Also, the instructions specifically say to heat aluminum hub dampers and to not alter the press fit of the hub in any way. I guess you can hone the hub out contrary to what ATI...

    Dual Piston Previa Caliper

    I was thinking the same thing...what is the diameter of the piston on the Previa caliper? Dr J - could you elaborate please? I am thinking of a big brake kit...wondering if I missed something here.

    oil pump question

    The Togo high volume pump is a farce...same output as stock. The Topline is ok, but the stock pump from Jay marks is actually cheaper. There is no way I would put an Auto Zone or any other pump besides Toyota in my motor...hell will freeze over 1st ;) This is one part the "Lifetime"...

    ATI Damper Installed

    That was the Cliffs Notes version ;) There's a lot more detailed info on the web if you are interested. And you're welcome :icon_bigg It's $468 shipped from ATI. IMO, it's worth every penny...and I'll bet the price is competitive with buying a new stock damper from Toyota. Knowing how...

    ATI Damper Installed

    Toyota designed the 7M with a harmonic damper...it's function it to negate harmonic vibration produced by the motor. This varies with rpm, but any harmonic vibration is bad for the engine over time. The stock damper uses rubber inside to accomplish this...with age, the rubber deteriorates and...

    ehh... my dipstick?

    The tubes are the same. I've coated at least a 15 from various years, they all were identical.

    Question before I install my LC-1 Wideband and EGT

    In the fuse block (drivers side kick panel) the is an empty terminal between the ECU-IG and IGN fuses...the top connector in this terminal is ignition switched power. It would be good for powering the LC-1...I would use an in-line fuse between it and the LC-1. Ground can be anywhere, but if...

    Thread size??

    The exhaust studs for the head are 10x1.5mm...just get them at the dealer. They're cheap and you won't waste your time (and gas) running around trying to find the correct length.

    ATI Damper Installed

    Nash - ATI makes it for the 7M, ATI Part #918525. Other than having to turn the crank bolt down, it's a direct fit and is basically the same belt diameter as stock (no underdrive). The stock damper weighs 11 lbs...the ATI weighs 6.5 lbs. Shaeff - Dead on man! I've got a lot of $$$...

    Help what goes here?

    $95 for a stock exhaust manifold. It's coated on the inside as well. You will need to look yours over carefully for cracks. Small cracks on the turbo flange opening is usually not a problem, but cracks on the runners or at the base of the flange are. I suggest hitting it with a wire...

    ATI Damper Installed

    Well...got my ATI damper in today. Didn't really have the time right now, but my previous timing belt jumped a tooth so I installed a Greddy timing belt and put the ATI damper on while I had everything apart. Couple notes on the install: In the first pic you will see the differences in the...

    Help what goes here?

    Almost every external part is ceramic coated...I do these coatings on the side ;) The chrome is a 2000 deg rated coating...the blue is 1400 deg. The stainless lines are real w/ AN fittings...and yes, they were expensive!
