    Just Had Shoulder Surgery Again (with pics)

    I was able to go to bed last night before 10 and slept halfway decent up until 4 A.M. I took off the foam tape and gauze that was covering my shoulder, which stun a bit (stupid adhesive foam tape). My surgeon cut open one of the 2 scars and used it for this surgery. He also went in the same scar...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    I'm a proud new papa of a brand new Hi Standard 1911A1 .45 ACP pistol :D I can't pick it up until June 3rd though. Here's two crappy cell phone pics I took at the gun store/range. Tax, pistol, case, lock, and processing fee totaled $499.08. Not bad I'd say. Until I am out of my sling in 6...

    Just Had Shoulder Surgery Again (with pics)

    A normal arm has 180 degrees of rotation. 90 down and 90 up. If you do the signals out you car window for stop and right turn, that is what I am talking about by range of motion. I don't know exactly how much range of motion I'll lose, but I am guaranteed to lose atleast a few degrees...

    Just Had Shoulder Surgery Again (with pics)

    I had shoulder surgery this morning for the 3rd time to tighten it up because it dislocates very easily out the back. I was lazy, so I just copied this from my myspace bulletin. The surgery went well. I am on Oxycodone. I'll post more pictures as I get them, including the pictures from...

    How Long And Hard To Replace 1J Turbo's?

    Unlike the rest of you guys, I don't have the ability to park my car where I live. I have to park my car 15 miles from where I live due to a base suspension. Otherwise I'd do it myself. The other problem is that I only get 1 day off a week because I work 2 jobs.

    How Long And Hard To Replace 1J Turbo's?

    I'm just going to swap in a fresh pair of twins courtesy of T701JZ. Driftmotion's CT26 setup is ideal for someone who is doing a 1J swap because they will already have almost every part needed. Hell, if they have a 3" DP already then they just saved atleast $300 between the 3" turbo elbow and...

    How Long And Hard To Replace 1J Turbo's?

    It took you 2 hours to do Mark's twins, wow. The write-up I was sent on how to remove them said 5 hours. Question is, how long total to completely replace the pair with a fresh pair? That is, for a guy who has never done it before.

    How Long And Hard To Replace 1J Turbo's?

    How long would it take someone to swap in a fresh pair of stock turbo's on a 1J (that's installed)? Any specialty tools needed? Can it be done in a driveway? Adam

    Disabling 1JZ Turbos?

    I just want to disable the turbos for the trip. I want to make them work again after the trip. IJ, I'll pass on that whole self disabling thing. Especially if they decide to disable themselves while going up a mountain pass with no cell phone reception or help anywhere near.

    Disabling 1JZ Turbos?

    I know this is going to sound wierd, but I need to know if I can somehow disable the stock twin turbo's. I am going to be driving 1200 miles north in about a year, and the route includes a lot of mountains. My turbo's smoke a little, and I am worried that the seals will blow out during the...
