    TX2K7 Information

    Well thats crap! No higher stall converter allowed? Does this mean that all five speed cars must run the factory flywheel and clutch then too?

    My 7M passed away today

    Yes, Don't pay attention to the vultures looking for your parts! Give the project a rest for a while and rebuild. Sorry about the loss.

    aluminum rods

    Why are we talking about the 2j, arp only makes one pn for the 2jz, and it is the same as the ones that come in the eagle rods for the 2j. Back on track- the 7m arp's are 8740 chrome molly steel 200,000 psi bolts and are loads stronger than the stock steel bolts.

    aluminum rods

    And this is why I said the eagles are an ok upgrade from stock on a 7m. Waste of money to buy eagle rods for a 2j, stock bottom is stronger.

    Cold weather + paint?

    You southern guys are funny with your snow and ice stories compared to us northern guys who live in the snow for 4 or 5 months. Last week I heard there was a wind chill advisory for florida because the wind chill was in the 50's

    Exhaust Question, been bugging me

    You need some back pressure to keep the power in the lower rpms where you need it. The bigger the exhaust on an NA motor the less the back pressure and the more the power band is moved to the upper rpms. Some back pressure, or smaller exhaust diameter will keep the power band in the lower rpms...

    aluminum rods

    Eagle Rods come with ARP bolts, what is wrong with them compared to the stock bolts? Eagle rods are an ok upgrade from stock rods but for my money, I would go with custom billet 5140 steel rods or titanium rods. If you don't like the options avaliable for "off the shelf" rods, you could always...

    The arp rod bolts are two sided just like stock bolts, the nuts that go on the bolts are six sided, just like stock. the rod bolts will also have "arp" stamped offset on the head of the bolt.

    cams and overlap

    Over lap is just the number of degrees of rotation that both intake and exhaust valves are open. Big overlap numbers are usually found in NA motors. Lots of over lap on a turbo motor will cause more low end turbo lag. There is no rule that aftermarket cams have more overlap, this is just how...

    nitrous intercooler spray or no?

    Upgrade your intercooler with the money instead. Intercooler spraybars are not adjustable with a "shot" size. The spray bar may be diffrent sizes, but really the only way to adjust the ouput of the kits is how long you have the flow turned on.

    Gauging interest in Community effort drag car!!

    I know the chance of getting on national tv is remote, but who cares? I never said the sole purpouse of a build would be just for Pinks. Yes, It would be a lot of fun for everyone involved I'm sure. But that may not happen. I could see this car going to Supra meets around the country, for show...
