    Yeah- for that color, I vote dark bronze.

    help, newbie tuner stalls when reved hard cuts out when wot or over 8psi

    As far as the dying at throttle-off, I would say it's your BOV. The car isn't set up to vent the bov to atmosphere. Hopefully I didn't misread anything you wrote, but using stock air metering(even the lex MAF) means that the air is metered, and then appropriate fuel is added. When you let off...

    Request for a pic or a photoshop...two-tone

    Thanks Afterdark! That's really a good look, IMO. That'll probably be what I go for- dark lower, light upper. I'll paint match the moldings to the lower as well.

    Rebuilt more sooner than later...

    As a habit, I always replace freeze plugs with a rebuild anyway. I like to remove the old plugs and make sure the coolant passages have no crud/ sediment in them.

    Question: Where is the computer jack for OBD?

    On an almost unrelated note, I found a few knock sensors on Ebay back a couple of years ago out of a 90's Toyota 4Runner, and put them in since they were newer. If you ever have a knock sensor definitely go bad, you can use the 4runner's, just gotta splice in the newer connectors- and I figured...

    Request for a pic or a photoshop...two-tone

    Well, two-tone is an 80's thing, and I think it might be a nice variation in a world of one-tone cars. Hell- if bell-bottoms were able to make comeback...

    Request for a pic or a photoshop...two-tone

    Hey guys- hopefully this request is in the right section; I was wondering if anyone had an actual pic, or can photoshop a pic, of a MkIII with a two-tone paintjob. Specifically, I'd like to see what the car would look like with a meteor gray lower body, and a light silver upper, divided at the...

    Rod vs. Valve knock

    LOL! I think 89supra7mgte is asking why IJ says to replace the injector clips! I mean really, IJ- why would I want to cut off and splice in new injector clips, just to verify rod knock?? :yelrotflm I think this was just a case of misunderstanding. IJ means that after you've unplugged...

    I think it's a noise filter? Not sure though.

    Intrax or Eibach

    I switched from Intrax to Eibach as well. Rear sits slightly higher than w/ the Intrax's, and that's how I like it. Didn't notice much difference as far as stiffness goes- thought they were quite similar in that regard. They're both progressive.

    What have you all made/ used for...

    Well, dunno if it was the old diff, or the crack, but the rear end 'clunk' that I used to get when I got on/let off the gas is totally gone. Happy happy, joy joy.
