    dual inline fuel pumps

    I don't see why not, but I plan on running one in tank and one inline on mine. Would the second pump in the line cause any resistance? Or would it be able to pull more fuel from the tank to the rail at a decent pressure level? Those would be the questions on my mind...

    Nashman V2 vs C'/Other R154 Short Shifters

    I did not know this, but they do look VERY similar. Good info! Curious what improvements they made though, do you have more info? You only need the very bottom bushing with the C's, the top (round) bushing is replaced with an extension that allows for the longer fulcrum. Very interesting...

    Cup holder mod

    All the good stuff comes in bottles anyway, I usually don't allow anyone to have cups in my car... just in case. FYI, a good option if you do drink stuff in cans/cups, get a Vitamin Water (for smaller drinks) or a 1L Pepsi/Mt Dew bottle, and after finishing the contents, wash and reuse the...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Now THAT is a launch! I suppose if it is only briefly, the flash heat shouldn't really hurt anything. Good timing on the initial picture I guess. :) Errr... is that a 1jz by Kenmore? Trying to figure out what use that has in your kitchen. High powered blender? :D Normally, my bank puts a fraud...

    Crawford Air/Oil Separator ??'s

    Sounds similar to something from the Miata world: http://www.flyinmiata.com/index.php?deptid=4524&parentid=0&stocknumber=04-37950 Definitely wouldn't want to drain the oil back into the engine though, as the pros have pointed out. :)

    Brake bleeding sequence...?

    A good 3-ton floor jack (and stands) is probably the most useful (and used) of all the tools I have in my garage. I suggest you invest in one, they come in handy. ;) Also, if you find yourself in a situation where the brakes don't appear to be doing much, try a quick PMABS attempt. By that, I...

    My first dyno today

    What gear did you dyno in, 2nd? Very flat curve though, makes for a quick street car. :) On a related note, holy crap a lot of dyno posts this week...

    2 1JZ's on the dyno 1 single 1 twins

    I'm curious about the black car, his peak number seemed to come in at a very low rpm. Does give credit to my theory that the stock twins choke the crap out of these motors around 5k... Otherwise, nice numbers. :)

    After 5 years.First dyno and test drive (video)

    Nice torque curve! Roughly 357 ft-lbs by my conversion, but starts nice and early... Looking forward to the future with this one. :)

    Supra on the Road Course

    510's are badass. One of the reasons I've always liked that guy whose name I can't remember (edit: Adam Corolla) at the moment... he has at least a couple old BRE 510's, and they are awesome. Actually races them and drives them too! That makes sense with the coolant, that shit is slippery. At...

    I was bored one sunday, then this happened. ( SUBWOOFERS in an MK3) Pics!!

    These cars are quite solidly built. I had a single 10" of some sort in a nice box in my old 88 that I had. I'm more of a sound quality guy than overall volume guy, so a 10" suits my cars just fine. All depends on the song though, some frequencies just WORK with whatever setup you have. I...

    LSD Oil

    Oh, and just in case you hadn't already done this, my best two pieces of advice here: -Remove the "fill" bolt first, and... -Use a 6-point socket. Trust me on this. Nobody likes to nearly strip the head on the fill bolt, with an empty diff. ;)

    Mk3 motion ratios.

    LD, 1030kg? How do you even GET a Mk3 to drop that much weight? I mean, I'm all for efficiency and replacing parts with lighter, more compact parts, weight redistribution, etc, but still... I have a hard time seeing there being over 500kg to pull out of a car. Blowing my mind here man! :D

    My Mosin Adventures

    What did you find out? Was this after each round, or only the last one in the clip? If at the end, I would think that to be part of the design. If after ever round though... that seems strange to me. Just read your post again, it was after each round? Very strange... I thought they were...

    1jz aftermarket oil pressure sender location. Intake or exaust side?

    If I remember correctly, I ended up picking up an oil pressure sender socket for this job. Kinda an odd shape, but it worked like a charm, and in my area, finding a solution at the parts store is a bit of a blessing considering how difficult it can be to get odd sized tools around here... If...

    Hatch targa holders problem

    Funny how its the simple things sometimes. Glad you got it figured out. :) For future reference, most parts for the interior have either an L or an R on them somewhere. Pretty self explanatory what that means. When in doubt, check the letter. ;)

    Exhaust head studs replacement

    I don't think we have a tech section for this sort of thing, but if the mods see fit, they could sticky it. You could always link it in your signature with a short description of what the thread contains. ;) Feel like I was being dragged around by my feet in the video. :p I know it gets hot...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    You know, not to be a negative nancy, but isn't lighting fires under your car a bad idea? I'd be concerned with melting something, or frying a brake/fuel line/wiring under the car... Anyway, I cleaned up my old suspension and wheels/tires yesterday. Tedious work, but they cleaned up pretty...
