    Calculating 2jzgeT compression ratio

    Where / how did you get the combustion chamber size? That's the only thing I can see that you haven't explained your measurement methods beyond any doubt...

    12v Optima red top battery in Toyota Supra Turbo/good or bad??

    As long as the battery you are installing meets or exceeds the CCA suggestion, you are fine. More battery is not a bad thing, I've run beefy batteries for years with no problems - well, not due to the battery size, anyhow. :)

    Electrical Guys chime in - grounds question

    Can't hurt to get a nice, clean, bare metal contact for the ground wire. Don't worry about cleaning the bolt holes, though. :) New ground wires will likely take care of it right out of the box, actually.

    12v Optima red top battery in Toyota Supra Turbo/good or bad??

    Easy to find out... pull off the negative terminal and throw an ampmeter in between the battery and the negative cable, see what kind of current your car is drawing while off.

    Pretty sure on this, but I'm going to ask anyways

    Your car should be easy, Nash - just drill a new hole through the firewall and weld a plate over the original one. Might even end up with less weight! :D

    Do you guys believe in chilton/haynes manuals?

    I have them all - Haynes, Chilton, TSRM, and TSRM online. The Haynes & Chilton manuals are around my house somewhere, collecting dust. I've literally never cracked them open, the TSRM is That. Damn. Good.

    Tough call at this point... but Rajunz has better wheels by virtue of looking like mine. :)

    Home Owners - Any Advice?

    Home insurance companies often have access to crime rates. :) Convincing them to part with it might be tough, but it can't hurt to try, especially if you're going to be shopping for insurance as well - which you should. Many mortgage places require it. Get the place inspected, even if it's...

    No EGR clips on the JDM harness. As I recall the length difference is ~18 inches.

    Agreed. Cheaper, tougher, easy to find... what's not to like?

    12v Optima red top battery in Toyota Supra Turbo/good or bad??

    If you switch to solid engine mounts, these are a MUST. The vibration will kill a standard lead acid cell in about 8 months of low mileage. Ask me how I know. :(

    What reliable modifications should I do?

    supra90turbo has the right ideas... maintenance first, then performance. Oddly enough, a lot of the Talon knowledge doesn't transfer... they don't blow head gaskets, but they have balance shafts to remove, and their drivelines don't appreciate extra ponies, among other things. The front main...

    Cleaning Intercooler w/ gasoline...

    You don't really need a whole lot of gasoline for this... a quart is probably more than enough. I use it to clean tools or parts afterwards.

    Can Anyone Confirm This

    I wouldn't be surprised, actually, a good number of sports / luxury cars seized by the police from illicit gains (drug sales, usually) are turned into police vehicles as a deterrent. :)
