    Just Curious

    Like everybody said don't do it. When you weld the spider gears, you are basically making one solid bar from wheel to wheel. Both wheels turn at the same rate at all times. Your differential is gone, as is your ability to go around corners smoothly. With a normal differential, when you go...

    I'm the new guy.

    Welcome to the site. Those sc300 are nice cars. And putting a 1j in there should be really neat. On a side note, you do know that the knock sensor wires are shielded, so the actually have two wires inside the insulation. One outer shielding, and one core. The fact that you mentioned...

    Wiring up an amp questions

    You have a few options. 1) Run the sub off the amp and the door speakers of the headunit. This option is best if your Kenwood unit has the option for highpass filtering on it's channels. I'm not familiar with the newer Kenwood’s, but I know the majority of Pioneer have this option so I...

    2.0 1ggte twin turbo to single conversion

    Um....???? ok I'm confused. Where did the 16g come in? I was talking about the 18g. Yes the 16g spools before that, the 16g, in my opinion is the ideal turbo for the 4G DSM motor. The 18g takes a little longer to spool but when it does watch out. The ct-26 will probably reach full spool...

    2.0 1ggte twin turbo to single conversion

    How long would it take to spool a sp61 on a 2.0 Liter engine? The following is just a guess, because I'm not sure of the spool characteristics of the 1G. DSM’s(eclipses, ect.) have a 2.0 liter motor, and their equivalent of the ct-26 is the 18G(roughly) The 18G’s...

    Valve cover seal job Q's

    Just to give to you an idea 22in-lbs is approx~1.8 ft-lbs. Few torque wrenches are going to go that low(accurately), so do like shaeff said and use your best guess. Also, the method I stated works well for me, never had any leaks. However some members just can't get it to work, this is most...

    Valve cover seal job Q's

    New seals, a little sealant at the cam gear corners, and then torque them down to Toyota spec, 22 in-lbs. Remember that’s in in-lbs not ft-lbs, so basically not very much torque. It has worked well for me. Here’s the page: http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/em/EM_56.html

    Fixing the Problem please help

    ^^^ Well technically the Cold start injector itself doesn’t, However the Cold Start Injector circuitry, and protocols inside the ECU do take readings from various sensors, in order to decide how it should activate the injector. But I’m sure we all knew what I was saying so I...

    It's back... finally

    Yeah SF in small doses is ok, but SM is where home is at. Thanks Mike, I know it isn't easy to do a fresh rebuild on a server when you already have a job. We all appreciate the hours you have put in to this. Thanks again Mike.

    favorite drink

    I'm into the cheerleader beer right now. Smirnoff twist black cherry is freaking good. I like it a little too much and need to quite it. Other than the little bout I'm having right now I haven’t really drank in a long time.
