I have never seen Supra cams that were scored in person. I have seen cam journals scored, and the reason the customer cam in was upper end knock. Honestly, I guess mine were just not that way. Visual is not the indicator as much as feel.

I don't know what year the intake cam switched either. The repair manual should have that information in the commpression test section.

There is not a point to this mod until you hit big power. Seems like Dr Jonez did it, but he is pushing close to 500 bhp, and needed to be richer sooner. And that was his findings.

Yeah, that looks nice. I even like the seats. I am on the record for liking the super white.

To add to that, those that know, I am a big factory man. Very few things are superficial, and drivetrain wise, nothing is. Your owners manual stipulates 7500 miles, or something obscene like that for oil changes. With heavy stop and go traffic, it is cut in half. Actually the truth is, "harsh...

This is a tangent but if you want the factory oil filters, they are the ones with orange colored rubber, not black. A good dealer can get them for you.

I have had a rod exit the block of a 2000 Corolla at 2000 rpm not under any load. Well, the customer did, not me. And it only had 20,000 miles.

"Big Oil" is quick to point out their profit at 59 cents on the dollar compared to world average of 56 cents on the dollar, with many other main stream products blowing that 59 cents out of the water. Profits are up because sales volume is up. India and China are buying nearly as much oil as we...

That isn't your old car is it? I thougt it was black.

The poll is skewed, as you can only supply info for one of possilby many cars that somebody owns, or has owned.

Actually, "big oil" has pointed that out. Just as lumber companies don't want to kill the goose that lays the golden egg, if the earth really did run out of oil, "big oil" would run out of money. For them to acknowelde that the supply might not be finite shows IMO, they are not as evil as...

I hope you aren't saying the exhaust cam. Becuase the they are the same part numbers.

And it lowers underhood temps.

The year does not matter. On all cars you are changing the power source for the control side of the fog light relay from the headlight to the different 12V source. That is why you have to have the headlights on for the fog lights. The switch provides the ground path. There is already a relay...

Did you clean the seats? Or is the floor just that dirty? There is nothing wrong with that. Form follows function.

It is an old George Carlin joke. He says "I am the first person to ever say this". Obviously.

There is no power gain from plugs. But you can prevent a loss, making it look like a gain.

You can not use the Karman Vortex meter with the GE computer. An oil cooler is a good idea. No need to do anything with timing except leave it stock. If you are going for real big power, then you might need to do something with it. Why not tap the block for oil? That is what Toyota did.

If you look at the Jeff Lange spec sheet in the refrence section, the 91 repair manual shows 171 psi cylinder pressure, from the original 156, and 140ish or whatever the GTE is. That is where the spool and short term power gain is. That elevated cylinder pressure. But with less lift, you will...

Stock 87 Supra turbo at idle was 40 db.
