    Tail liiiiiiiiiights

    My taillight sensor "went bad" too. But not really. access it through the drivers side bulb panel. Flex the conntector plug by hand, side to side, up and down, while someone presses the brake pedal, or you block the brake pedal down with something. If the brake lights come on, you may very well...

    Lisle 36200 Keeper Installer HELP!!

    A brake cylinder hone is a small 3-prong drill bit, with 3 stones on those prongs which are spring-loaded to press outward. they are identical(yet smaller) to some cylinder hones, used to create the cross-hatching on cylinder walls. Anyway, if the gouge on the bucket wall can be smoothed out-...

    If you're lucky, you can use a brake cylinder hone to smooth out/ polish those lifter bores.

    both turbo and supercharger

    I'm suprised that it hasn't yet been mentioned, but there was a twincharger kit available for the 4AGZE MR2 back in the day. Might have been marketed by HKS, dunno.

    Changing Turbo Exhaust Housings

    I'm doing some porting now on my spare head. Got two of the cylinders done; unshrouding valves, smoothing cc, and flush grinding the intake valve seats. I Don't expect much, but like the guy said- it's free(not including all the dremel bits i've bought.)

    supras+handling=crap what have you done/can u do

    Well then, I suggest the following: trd springs, tokico 5ways, st swaybars and a full urathane bushings with 17''x9.5 rear and 8.5 front wheels. Aside from that, you might want upper/lower front and rear frame braces, and put the car on a diet- I.E.: remove the spare tire, unused seats...

    supras+handling=crap what have you done/can u do

    LMAO! You just said that the Supra handles like Sh!t compared to what you're used to, and then proceed to compare it to a car that is 10+ yrs newer, 500+lbs lighter, and has a complete aftermarket suspension and tire/wheel package... Huh? Everything that you've put into that MR2 is exactly...

    supras+handling=crap what have you done/can u do

    Suspension Techniques or Whiteline swaybars, Eibach, RSR, or H&R lowering springs(in order of higher to lower stance), with Bilstein, Koni or KYB struts(in order of higher to lower price). You'll be happy. You can, of course spend MUCH more on adjustable coilovers(HKS, TEIN, Megan Racing...

    New Project

    That's pretty much it. Are you manual or auto? If manual, you can keep the W58 5spd, but I'd recommend a heavy duty disc on the clutch.

    It might be a wiring issue to the TPS... HTH

    Valve Removal Tool

    http://www.sjdiscounttools.com/lis36200.html This tool's description also says "push or tap to install" Does it work that easy?? I just removed all of my valvetrain in about 20 minutes, using the magnet-in-the-sparkplug-socket trick with great results. But I'm not sure of the easiest way to...

    maf translator (not maft-pro or gen2)

    Oh, I don't think I need 550's as far as my power goals are concerned, at least not yet. I would like to get about 350rwhp. I'm just trying to figure out a safe way to keep my max boost around 15psi without hitting fuel cut. I currently hit FC around 13psi.

    maf translator (not maft-pro or gen2)

    I had a question about injector sizing: 1. If the stock fuel pressure is say, 38 psi at idle, and I up it with my AFPR to 48, that's an increase of ~25%. Does this mean, that I can safely switch my MAFT to the 550cc injector setting(a 25% increase), even though I'm using the 440 injectors...

    AAARRGGGHHH!! New Motor In Wont Start!!

    I'm imagining its the set that bolts to the intake, under runner #6.

    hitting fuel cut at 4 psi

    Yeah- the leak won't be open at anything other than positive boost. Pull all of your rubber intercooler hosea. You'll find a bad one.
