    7M-GTE Heads: Polyquad v.s. Oversized Intake Valves

    Is it possible to run like .5mm exhaust along with 1+mm oversized intake for these heads or will the valves have contact with each other?

    7M-GTE Heads: Polyquad v.s. Oversized Intake Valves

    Oh wow. I know you can get 1mm oversized valves for 7m's but that's a 1.6mm oversize. Hmmm might try that. Now I'm just going to have to find out what kind of seats they used.

    7M-GTE Heads: Polyquad v.s. Oversized Intake Valves

    It is helpful but unfortunately no one mentions doing any Polyquad valve setups :( That's the one thing I'm extremely curious about with these heads. But other than that it has some great info that I can use. Thanks! Now one question I have about that page is "are the 2jz valves oversized...

    7M-GTE Heads: Polyquad v.s. Oversized Intake Valves

    So in my Advanced Theory of High Performance Heads class we have one final project; to write a small review about a forum discussion that has to do with increasing the performance of the head(s) of the engine. We were originally told we could only use SpeedTalk but since I'm the only person in...

    Coilover selcection

    I'm not looking for hellaflush stuff. Not a fan of it. I want something that I can still drive. I also could never slam my car because driving in this town would be nearly impossible.

    However low a set of Stance coils will set me at. None of that hellaflush stuff. I'll be at a decent ride height but I won't know until I buy the coils.

    Coilover selcection

    I honestly can't find any difference between the 2 but TH Motorsports says it would be free shipping while the other companies will most likely have a shipping charge added on top of that.

    Coilover selcection

    When I looked on TH Motorsports I think it was like a little over a grand for the Super Sport Stance coils and still right around 1200 for the GR+ Stance coils.

    have you ever done any form of racing or hard driving that would really abuse the coils and put them to the test?

    Yeah I think the cheaper set of Teins for the mk3s are about $1500 or something like that. Still not bad especially for a well-known quality brand.

    Coilover selcection

    I would like to attempt to drift my MkIII and this summer I will be buying a set of coilovers to replace my tired and worn stock suspension. What should I get for coilovers? BC Racing: $1000 Powered by Max: $1000 Stance: $1250 Does anyone else have some other options? Does anyone have...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    I'm looking at buying some new rims and tires later this summer. The rims are 18x8.75 +20 in the front and 18x9.75 +20 in the rear. Question number 1. Will that fit nicely without rolling the fenders or am I going to need to roll them for this to work? Question number 2. What size tires will...

    Mk3 Heart-transplant or rebuild. 1JZ-GTE swap or 7M-GTE build? Help.

    I'm just kind of thinking about the few minor things that I'm gonna need. I could extend this budget a about $1500 more but I have 2 problems. 1) my Supra's struts are SHOT, have been since day 1 pretty much so she's getting some coilovers 2.) my custom hood is having some troubles after this...

    Mk3 Heart-transplant or rebuild. 1JZ-GTE swap or 7M-GTE build? Help.

    Haha. I had looked at some BIC exhaust clips (which I have to say I love the fact that they actually have videos with sound clips of what their exhaust sounds like. just wish it was high quality) and I'm thinking I may just go down to my dad's friends exhaust shop and get a custom full 3" with...

    For that calculator all you need is the offset and the overall tire width

    That will just tell you how much clearance you will get/lose on the inside/outside with the new rims. offset is what you need to know not the lip size.
