What if I can't remember? I'm on my 6th Supra... and I think my first one was in the mid 90s, so I would have been in my late twenties. Plus or minus 5 years. ;)

I work with computers. Company I work for makes software for the Real Estate industry, mostly products for Agents. Technically, I run a team of people who test the software. But working with computers pretty much covers it. :D And now I don't care if anyone ressurects the thread, I've...

What he said. Works perfectly.

Jay Marks / Champion Toyota. They are in the vendors section here.

Don't worry Dead, I thought it was funny. :)

Damp smell in the car is usually the heater core or leaky targa / rear hatch seals. Gurgling from the dash is the sound of bubbles running through your heater core. Bubbles usually means air in the system, which can come from lots of things, the BHG only being one of them. Most of them are...

I think he should do it for practice a couple times in a row, then he won't worry about it anymore. :D

Yup, you are just paranoid. Besides, even if you blow a gasket, it's still only a day's work to fix it. :)

Dude, you're funny as hell. Calf implants. :D Composite gaskets are good for plenty of power. I am moving to an HKS gasket now, but I'll still suggest composite for most of the folks here, especially if they are planning on less than 400rwhp.

Actually... from what I understand, the ECU learns from how you drive. So, if you drive with your foot to the floor all the time, it's going to gradually become more powerful at the expense of economy. And if you always drive timid, it'll do the opposite. So... if it was driven by a granny...

Must admit, the only thing I don't like about that bumper is the round edges on the IC mouth. IMHO, the Mk3 lines are meant for more squared off edges. Pretty minor complaint, though. :D

Also, spinning the engine too fast or seriously tired valve springs could cause valve 'float' - where the valves open further than they should from inertia.

Stock headbolts are good to at least 72 foot pounds. 82 might be a bit much, but then, I haven't heard of anyone who has had the stock *bolts* fail - it's always a lack of torque making the head gasket fail, not broken or stretched bolts. That said, ARP hardware is a great idea, they can be...

No squirters on the 5M.

??? AFAIK, the electronics are the same from one unit to the other. Jeff's even had the same part number stamped on them.

You can tune it with an adjustable fuel pressure regulator or by adding 550s. The screw is rather unlikely to give you enough range by itself. Look into a MAFT as well from Full Throttle Motorsports, this solution does basically the same thing except it doesn't require the new injectors.

HKS bead type is good. Without the service history on your car, the only way to tell if your block has been milled would be to pull it out and have a machine shop measure it's height. With the Lexus AFM and 550s you *can* run with the stock fuel lines and pump, however, replacement items in...

Now THAT would be damn funny.

In that case it goes with the pressure plate, which will be on the tranny input shaft when you mount it up.

The problem is that your engine needs to be on to dissipate the heat it generates. When you turn it off, heat from the engine will boil coolant in the block and fuel in the fuel rail instead of being handled by the radiator, because your water pump only runs with the engine. I'd suggest...
