    Methanol/water injection pre-turbo

    One more thing... if you're going to mix your own, measure each separately, then mix in another container. Putting a litre of water in a container, then adding meth until it measures 2L will *not* get you a 50:50 mix. If you pour a litre of meth into a litre of water and mix it, you'll get...

    Methanol/water injection pre-turbo

    I've seen setups like this on *lots* of drag cars, however, there are tradeoffs. FYI, most of these cars run straight meth or alcohol, and don't have an IC at all. Consider that your BOV will now spray the same mixture into your engine bay. Also consider that 48:52 mixture may not ignite under...

    Electric vehicle conversion

    I dunno about too heavy... they use the tech on city buses now, and those aren't lightweight by any stretch of the imagination. I'd like to see it done for sure. Sure would make traction control easy!

    Drag video from Friday night.

    Nice job J! What are you using for tires? You've cut some wicked 60 foot times on street tires before, knock some of that rust off and you're going to be knocking on 11...

    How much power?..

    *IF* his engine is in good shape, which is less than likely considering it looks to be 20+ years old.

    Castrol Syntec 0w30 European Formula in high horsepower apps?

    I've been using the German Castrol for years, haven't had any problems yet.

    Wideband O2 sensor failure symptoms?

    Anyone care to fill me in on the details of exactly how wideband sensors tend to fail? I've heard that they are less robust than narrowband sensors, but by how much, and how can you tell when they start to go?

    Any BC owners?

    Most of us will take Thursday and Friday off that week, and have a mini-vacation from June 30 - July 5. Some will do the reverse, and take off Monday and Tuesday.

    Any BC owners?

    None of that. Keep the meets to regular non-holiday weekends, or you'll lose all the family guys to 'quality time with the wife'.

    Lightning (pix & vid)

    Well done. My wife is a photographer, I know what it takes to get decent shots of lightning, because I've stood next to her wielding the umbrella for hours on end! She did end up with a prize winning photo, though, so I guess it was worth it. That one with the ball light in the cloud directly...

    flywheel bolts broken

    Those bolts are definitely not stock. I suspect they just weren't strong enough. At the very least, get new bolts from Toyota. Better yet, get new ones from ARP.

    Any BC owners?

    I'm in Richmond, and Duane (upgradedsupra) is in Burnaby, Don (Vansupra) is in Chilliwack. There are usually a good dozen people show up to the meets...

    Need seals for wings to a 3 piece spoiler!

    I usually dig up the part numbers ahead of time, but there were so many of these that I didn't bother. I just called Mark and asked him for all the spoiler seals. He even got me the one for the antenna.

    Any Input on this ? Positively Engaged Infinitely Variable Transmission... Universal

    I'll be surprised if it's real. Very surprised. Mostly because their website is a virtually perfect mirror of the usual scam setup. Essentially, they follow the same basic steps: 1. Create fictional product. Must be plausible to most. 2. Create or buy some reputation for your product. Not...

    Need seals for wings to a 3 piece spoiler!

    Agreed. I've ordered from both Jeff and Mark, they get me parts, shipped to Canada, including shipping and border fees, for about half what I can buy them for up here. I've had the local dealer totally bullshit me too - new engine wiring harness not available, cost was over $4000 anyway, just...

    Need seals for wings to a 3 piece spoiler!

    I suspect that you talked to the wrong Toyota parts guy... I just replaced all those, picked them up from Mark at Vancouver Toyota in Washington.

    Custom center console - Input please

    I suspect that is the one Jeff found, and as I recall it can be mounted in either the top or bottom position. :)

    Custom center console - Input please

    Jeff Lange found a cupholder that bolts into one of the stereo locations from another Toyota. Seems to work pretty well for those who want to carry drinks. As for the interior modifications, I don't think it's been done. TTE was talking about molding an entire custom dash at once point, but...

    blue smoke at start up

    This isn't exceptionally pricey, the seal part number from Toyota is 90913-02062, should be about $5.60 each if you buy them individually, much less if you pick up an entire set. THere is a write up on how to do this on Supras.com, it's been there for a very long time...
