    Coolant Hose Under Thermostat

    don't remove the p/s tank, just move it outta the way, much cleaner that way, if you spill any pour petrol on it asap! (petrol mixes with the oil and it will wipe right up stain free on concrete) you can remove the hose on car (i've done it!) use needle nose plyers on the spring clips. i...

    turbo question

    i sure as hell wouldn't do it. Efficiency range is different, fuel map won't suit, AFR's will most likely be wrong. you need to adjust the fuel map, plus with the stock ecu and fuel cut the 60-1 won't even see its efficiency island and will end up slower than a stock ct26

    Coolant Hose Under Thermostat

    its not that bad, you need to remove accordion hose, p/s tank and the bracket that holds it on, from there you MAY need to turn the spring clips. you will probbly need to bend the alloy plate back as'well to get to it. here's a few pictures i have that may give you a better idea

    Silicon On Gaskets?

    you obviously applied it wrong, you dont need much and you spread it thin, and keep the silicon to the outter half of the ajoining surface same as the sump pan, i do the bolts up finger tight, then wait a few hours before torquing, i did it to every surface on my block and have had 0 leaks.. the...

    Options to route wideband harness into cockpit?

    i don't know about where your from but here if we flush the toilet it usually goes 1 way, to go the "wrong way" is to imply that you had a turd shot out of the toilet at you...

    Silicon On Gaskets?

    silicon peels off easy., and as a result the paper gasket does not get caked on and is also easy to remove. everyone has their own preference. i prefer not to have to reseal things twice in the first place.

    Silicon On Gaskets?

    yeah its a good idea, use the automotive sensor safe stuff in case any travels up to the sensors (the stuff is orange in colour) i usually use my finger to spread it thin you don't need heaps, i used it on a lot of paper gaskets and it helps seal lots especially if the surfaces haven't been...

    Driveline Vibration

    i doubt its the uni's then, its more of a clunk when for example your in second decelerating (engine is putting resistance on the drive-line) then you apply throttle and begin to accelerate and then resistance shifts and the drive-line puts resistance on the motor. (if that makes sense)

    Driveline Vibration

    yeah that's what i thought my car was a single pegger then had a lsd fitted so i'm betting they skipped checking the lash and just reused the shims. uni joins wouldn't cause a clunk would they?

    Supra won't start after mojar rebuild.... Help need

    could be, but he says the starter clicks :) could be a relay click or the solenoid in the starter trying to engage in either case shouldn't happen if the alarm is wired correctly and preventing the car from cranking i still say likely cause is the starter trigger wire :) i hope he reads this =/

    as others have said, sounds like a boost leak did you ground the correct pins to read the error codes?

    cam bolt sequence

    It's online go forth and RTM. the caps do go back in a particular order, luckily for you the caps are numbered! so even if you mix them up you can find the right way to put them on!

    Supra won't start after mojar rebuild.... Help need

    he said that his motor isn't actually spinning which indicates a issue with the starting system not the ignition system :)
