    Full Throttle MAF Translators

    Err... yes, lots of folks here have used them, myself included. It's the precursor to the MAFT Pro, so it's similar, but without the huge feature list of the Pro unit. Yes, you can tune your fuel with it, and it will replace a lexus AFM.

    Tough to get, as Nash is an $80 ferry trip away from me, and I'm not too good at steering while taking video... I'll get a picture with all the boots overtop soonish, I still don't have the leather boot re-installed because then I can't play with the settings.

    Power antenna , took the thing appart

    Dead serious, it's an extremely common part, as all aftermarket units I've ever seen use the large plug, and one of your crazy domestic manufacturers uses the small one, so about every third stereo install in the USA requires one. Any stereo shop that doesn't have one, or doesn't know what they...

    Mini cars

    This is *much* easier to do if you have a picture without a house in the background... Preferably something boring that you can't tell when it's been stretched or squished.

    Oddly enough, I was expecting the heat to be an issue when not using the isolator, but it hasn't so far. I can't really explain why. Haven't tried it with an isolator yet, but I'm planning on giving it a go.

    Looks like it. I spent some time today cruising in every gear at a wide range of RPMs, no buzzing at all. Well, except for when the shift knob came off early in the day! ;) I guess we didn't tighten that down very well yesterday.

    It's not so much the difference between gears... the key is keeping your right hand as close to the wheel as possible, whatever gear you are using.

    To be honest, it feels like a short shifter. I've used the original Nash, and I've tried the Cs and the S2. This feels nicer than the Cs and about the same as the S2. It has a massive advantage over the S2 in the adjustability department, of course. Oh, and it's worlds above the old SOGI...

    Just the mast, of course. :) The entire assembly is ~$235, part numbers for it are 86300-14362 or 86300-14372.

    Not yet. Nash asked me to keep the boot off during testing so I can adjust it easily, otherwise I'm likely to set it once and never change it during the test period. :) If I find the guys who warned him I'm lazy, I'm going to BAN 'em! ;)

    You'll need to pick up an antenna adapter to use the other one, any decent stereo installation place will have them. The second antenna jack is the weird mini plug, not the standard size that everything else uses. I just switched back to the powered one today, we'll see how long that lasts. :)

    Not sure what you mean, but I can check it out. How do you reproduce this buzz? Buy the stick a couple beer?

    Simple quetion but...

    Comes out from the front. There is a screw that lets the outer bezel come off, then the housing, lens, and bulb assembly pulls out the front of the bumper. Pretty obvious from there. :)

    WILDLIFE- Birdstrikes at 180 MPH - smear on the windshield

    Yup, really did. Those old 22R engines were amazing - and even so, in that time I wore out two heads and one block. And about 15 exhaust headers. :(

    25% increase in whp? I call BS. Better spool, maybe... a bit more power, maybe.

    17 year old Supra driver no longer with us, TN

    My condolences. Hang on to the rest of your family. A tip from Calahan - shared grief decreases.
