    What is a Zenkei Fog Light

    It's from the "JDM TYTE" 240SX crowd. It's just added to ebay auctions to get more hits (which is stupidity in itself)

    confusing overheating issue!!!!

    No way to really know. Heater not working is usually caused from an air bubble, but why is it there...

    Drag Setup Proposal

    It's a catch 22. More squat = more camber = less contact patch. Keep it simple, run what you have then get sticky tires, after that mess with suspension setup.

    What is the best way to clean grime off of head?

    Purple Power eats aluminum, so don't use that.

    confusing overheating issue!!!!

    The ONLY way a larger turbo is going to increase pressures in the cooling system is if it's lifting the head (i.e. BHG). Excessive pressure in the cooling system is classic signs of a leak. It's either BHG which pushes combustion gasses into the cooling system, or it's a pinhole leak that...

    12.5-12.9v when the engine is running, bad alternator?

    Or the battery, and then you have a bomb...

    confusing overheating issue!!!!

    Namely timing (even without timing control used, piggybacks mess with timing curves anything they're tuned) Honestly, you have other issues if you're getting that much pressure. The higher pressure cap is a band aid at this point...

    Slide hammer works. If i could find the tool they specify in the TSRM I would have bought it though :rofl:

    Turbo Timer.

    Oil has come a long way and doesn't coke us as easily. Water cooled turbos will still cool after the car is turned off as well. Stay well clear of Lucas...

    confusing overheating issue!!!!

    You have another thread about getting the MAFT Pro tuned, that could be your entire issue... Outside of that, coolant leak.

    Ebay 7M silicone hose kits or suitable replacement?

    That has silicone replacements for all the IC pipes, NICE! While people will say to support our vendors, none of them carry something like that (though some of them may be able to get it at a better price)

    Stock IC piping clamps

    If you have the piping, measure it, it's the easiest way. The stock worm gear clamps are stronger than most worm clamps as well. There are a LOT of different part numbers for the clamps if that indicates anything. Showing 8 different part numbers and there are 12 clamps total (not including...

    EGR Block Off Plate Gasket

    OK, fine, I'll stick strictly to what you're saying. Guess what, JDM 7M gets worse gas milage than the USDM (2-3MPG) EGR reduces pumping losses. I'm not the one talking around the point, you are. EGR is used for cruise where the motor is doing very little. EGR basicly lowers the...

    EGR Block Off Plate Gasket

    EGR will get better milage. Less oxygen and fuel used during cruise means better fuel economy. That's where the less fuel and advanced timing with the ECU tuned for EGR comes from. The only way to do the same thing is with cylinder deactivation.

    Anyone use KYB GR-2 struts?

    They're stock. I liked mine with stock suspension.

    EGR Block Off Plate Gasket

    Incorrect. It increases gas milage (by displacing air and the ECU gives less fuel and advances timing as EGR is also a knock reducer), lowers NOX emissions, and lowers EGT's at cruise. The issue with removing it without replacing the ECU is the ECU thinks it's there, so it advances timing and...
