    help!!??

    Cooling system is pressurized... Find the leak. This includes doing a test to check for exhaust gasses in the coolant.

    trust mk3 exhaust

    Correct. rhdjapan.com carries them. If they don't have it on their site (they don' just looked), shoot em an email and they'll get it.

    Should I buy this T100? What do you guys think?

    That's actually about right for it's value (going by KBB). Getting it is completely your call though...

    S2 makes an exhaust close to that as well.

    7m Warmup/Idle

    Should have also explained the reasoning behind this. If you idle until the engine is warmed up, only the engine is warm. The tranny, diff, tires, ect aren't up to temp yet.

    7m Warmup/Idle

    Idling promotes more wear. Start up, fiddle with things in car (seatbelt, stereo station, ect), check oil pressure (good pressure?), then drive away. Drive nice until it warms up. Once warm do what you wish.

    Divorced Downpipe

    Mine has the tab. If it doens't have a tab it's worthless and you might as well run an open downpipe... Edit: it has to be precise for it to seal properly. Too long and youleak from the flange (or crack it), too short and it leaks out the dump pipe. Also, location is important, too high...

    Divorced Downpipe

    I have the original chinese made DDP (same thing as this). Doesn't leak at the falnge, but the divider isn't tight (not like it's going to matter, they all will leak) and fitment isn't good. Not to mention the flex section is in the wrong place and is in the perfect place to snag speedbumps...

    funky_monkey58's build thread.

    Not to mention anodising makes the part larger in every dimension. They make slightly oversized taps so you don't have to retap after anodising which will remove the anodising in the threads. Also depends entirely on the anodising done.

    Where's the thread for: "How to install a ct/26 on a tubular manifold"?

    It rotates the turbine housing 90 degrees and you'll have a fun time making a new downpipe and fitting it. It's also pointless since the CT is the bottleneck, not the manifold... Degree on SF did this, and we all laughed at him...

    Stripped Targa Threads

    Helicoil works fine (mine is done, not by me) but you MUST remove the tang on the coil once it's in or it will dent the top. Time-sert would be better. Also, the driver's side strips because the top is tightened in the wrong sequence. Tighten the back 2, then the driver's side front, then...

    thinking of picking up an FC with 1jzgte

    As with all sales.... Also ask yourself "why are they selling this car?" If it because they need the money? Or is it because it has issues that are well hidden? You're also in Cali. 1J = ILLEGAL
