I don't think a contest is the route we want to take this time, folks. There are some changes in the works that will hopefully roll out shortly - I don't want to say more until I can give a solid timeframe - but I'd hate to get a bunch of people to work on something like this just to discard...

Or do the bit where you the spark plug wires one at a time and see if the sound goes away. If it goes away on one wire, you definitely have rod knock.

I should point out that a boost controller is not the first mod I would purchase - it's just the easiest way to get a few hp basically for free. Even running one of his MBCs at stock boost levels would get you at least that much extra power. I'd go the same route that mtoxracerfss suggested...

Heh... I never see it, as I always use the lumiblue theme. It has a nice banner. :) We can't actually fix anything at the moment, our FTP access to the site failed recently, and we haven't figured out why as of yet. :(

To answer your question... stock for stock. Supra Turbo: 3535lbs, 254torque, 232hp. MR2 Turbo: 2888lbs, 142torque, 200hp. So... how much wieght per foot pound of torque? Supra: 13.9 MR2: 10.3 Winner: Supra So... how much weight per HP? Supra: 15.2 MR2: 14.4 Winner: MR2 How...

It tells the climate control when the sun is shining, which is one of the inputs it uses to determine if you need your A/C running or not.

IIRC in photoshop 7 it was a right click option on the layers display... flatten all, or flatten visible? It's been a while since I used PS7, but it was absolutely there, PS has had it for years.

I'd far rather greyscale some of the image over colorizing parts of it. Colorizing is tough to get right, greyscale is easy.

Hell yes, those are nice!

Nice battery! Does that thing have enough power to crank the car for more than a couple seconds? :D

Agreed.

Yes, it came with the newer round T symbol on the 91 & 92, IIRC. Maybe only on the '92? Jeff Lange will know, I bet. :) The old red one is cool... the tiled background is a traditional artform in Japan.

So... you copy the section you want to greyscale to a new layer, greyscale it, and then flatten. :)

I'm willing to give that a try, shaeff. :) I'll post up the results.

Post 89 here.

Where's the colored highlights in that photo? It's pretty easy to do this, just select everything you want to change to black and white and convert it to greyscale.

Hmm... thanks for the tip. I'm going to keep an eye on the tach when I start it at lunch today. :)

Congratulations! I just recently (3 weeks ago) got mine back on the road as well, so I know what you are feeling. Sure is nice to have it running again!

This doesn't belong in the FAQ area. Thread moved.

Even if this is a rod knock, chances are it's no big deal. I drove mine for nearly a year - and when I finally tore it down, the rod was slightly roasted, but it hadn't gotten any worse over the year that I drove it. Just make certain you always keep oil in it, and it should run for a long...
