    GA Supras

    ORLY? Im going to have to say you're wrong about knowing that much. I got one of my cars tuned at mainstream back when scotty used to work for them. My friend got his turbo integra tuned there as well. Ive never had any work done on my cars by Turbo Dave but he looks like he does great fab work...

    67 camaro with a 2JZ?!?!

    Awesome taillights! They put a lot of $$$$ and time into that car. I believe the 950-1000hp makes up for not having a v8 in it.Plus it would confuse the hell out of anyone that rolled up next to it and heard it.

    VGT turbo

    Go here http://www.porsche.com/usa/models/911/911-turbo/gallery/?gtabindex=5 and click on the "Masterwerk" video. Awesome video..and what a beautiful torque curve.. 620Nm from 2000-5000rpm. I wish someone could make a universal application.

    2jz swap slowly overheating

    If you go pick it up bring a new thermostat with you and a new radiator..or one that you know isn't plugged. Or if you were to go there, let the car get up to operating temp and use an infrared heat gun and look at different parts of the radiator. If there are any cool spots on it then you...

    2jz swap slowly overheating

    From the looks of it, it does not have a fan shroud. Id probably try to address that situation first as a fan shroud is needed for the cooling system to work properly. Or you could try your luck with some e-fans.

    Coolant filter pics

    Gotcha..So a dual filter head would need to be used. I just figured toilet paper would disintegrate in oil.Apparently i would be wrong.

    Trouble With Painting Mouldings

    ^ That could be too. Use either paint thinner to clean before paint or some of the grease and wax remover cleaner.

    Trouble With Painting Mouldings

    If rattle canning it, I would at least use Duplicolor. Also, some paint stores can custom tint paint for spray cans..Kinda expensive though. I would just grab a small cheap touch-up gravity fed paint gun from an autoparts store and get a little paint like a quart mixed up.

    Running really bad?? After Engine Wash

    Before you replace the AFM just check it per TSRM. Same for the coils and ignitor.

    Extracting power without extracting the rods from the block

    Very good information on timing Doward! And Van thats a pretty neat link, thanks! As for the intake ports. Keeping them rough to help the fuel atomize was really only very necessary in the days of the carbureted engine. The intake ports needed to be rough so the fuel wouldnt just run down...

    Running really bad?? After Engine Wash

    lol I think just about every time I have removed the AFM i've forgotten to plug it back in..I always realize it immediately. If water some how made its way into your AFM, it might be toast. Check all the easy stuff first though. Check all connectons and make sure they're dry. Look at...

    Coolant filter pics

    hum. Thats pretty neat. God only knows what my cooling system looks like. So you're saying you can do the same thing with a regular filter mount and any ol' oil filter(like a wix)? Might give this setup a try sometime.

    Synapse BOV compared to hks ssqv

    Id probably stick to a Tial wastgate..But id be more inclined to use Synapses BOV. That Tial BOV in the vid above is also right next to the TB as well as the Vac. source. Usually when you buy their bov though there is no opiton to get different springs.

    Overboost (Driftmotion stuff + pt67dbb)

    Like i said, I never really trust knockoff parts especially when it comes to a wastegate, overboosting is not good. If i were you id just go ahead and get a real Tial WG. Theres a couple of guys selling the 44mm's in the classifieds.

    Xo2?

    If you know someone who can weld aluminum, the best route would be to get a universal piping kit and fab them up.
