    Headliner

    My head liner was vinyl I just unhooked it from the roof and painted it. The down side is you have to take a lot of the interior out to get to the headliner. After that it's just two little clips in about the middle of it on the back side. You have to reach behind and pop them off. It comes in...

    5spd swap

    It should have them but I'm not positive on that. The cruise control switch is very handy if you like cruise control. It keeps the engine from over-revving if you depress the clutch to shift while in cruise control. It's nice to have if you&#8217;re coming up on somebody you want to pass. You...

    compression

    Getting a thicker HG only lowers the compression ratio, it doesn&#8217;t net you any more horse power. However if you have the supporting upgrades(fuel, turbo, ect.) it allows you to run more boost without entering detonation. Were talking 20+ psi before you even have to start thinking about...

    5M & 7M Volumetric Efficiency

    The turbocharger only hinders the VE when the throttle is at WOT and only for the first part of the RPM Band 600~1800 RPM give or take a few hundred. If the throttle is at any point other than WOT it (the throttle) becomes the greatest obstruction in VE. If the throttle is at WOT, the turbo...

    finally REAL HUNDA

    For building something that may be bits and pieces of a Honda but 100% his own creation. To build something that is one-of-a-kind, and all yours. Or maybe for the sheer challenge of it. That would be my reason. Who knows?

    Speed limiter??

    The 1JZ motor (stock ECU) has speed cut at 120mph. The 7m ECU does not have a speed cut.

    starter problems help ASAP

    Stock alarm may have been tripped. Close your doors and lock then unlock them with the key. That should disable the starter kill. Also just for the hell of it double check to make sure you battery connectors are tight and not corroded.

    5M & 7M Volumetric Efficiency

    85% is a good estimated Volumetric Efficiency. Being a 4 valve head you might hit 88%. But I would stay conservative and go with 85%

    5M & 7M Volumetric Efficiency

    ???? A turbo increases volumetric efficiency. A turbo charger increases the amount of energy produced(efficiency) per liter(volume). Also are you wondering about an NA engine with(7mge) or without(7mgte) the ACIS system. As the ACIS system can considerably increase VE on an NA engine. BMW even...

    Cut my brake pedal in 2 I love it

    Yeah heal/toe sucks in our cars because of the pedal height difference. I always tried to figure out why Toyota did that. Good job fixing it Nash.
