    installing arp headstuds with block in car?

    Untrue! :) Just make sure you get the newer studs with hex imprints cut in the top, mount the head without the studs in the block, then drop the studs in from the top and screw them in with a small and long allen key. Then drop your washers and nuts on the top and you're good to go.

    I think that is the guy who installed the clutch disk backwards. :)

    Question about IC piping...

    SupraSport does sell a set at that price: http://www.suprasport.com/product.asp?itemid=129 However, they are mild steel, not Aluminum. I don't know anyone who carries an Aluminum set, I'm afraid. I checked Horsepower Freaks, MVP, and SupraSport, no luck.

    7M block questions (turbo related)

    And just ignore the oil squirters for the underside of the pistons. Many of the cars across the pond didn't come with them in the turbo engine anyhow.

    SupraMania.com stickers! Who's in?

    Update. I'm giving up on the original guy. From what I can see, he hasn't logged in here in nearly a month. I hope he hasn't died under mysterious circumstances, but if so, it's likley karma for making me all grumbly! ;) I have several leads on vinyl places to get these cut, I'm aiming...

    New Dyno#'s for those of you that dont go to SF

    Agreed, a list of upgrades would be nice. And the settings on your MAFT! Damn, one of these days I have to go hit the dyno and see what mine is putting down. :)

    Oil pump question/crank question

    Tony has some very valid points. When I dissassembled my oil pump, I noticed that there isn't a whole lot to wear inside one in the first place. I'm not saying it's a requirement, just that it can't hurt - most people who have the engine out anyhow, an oil pump is not a large expense to...

    Nicely done! This is on a stock CT?

    Oil pump question/crank question

    If you have the spare coin, by all means, replace the oil pump while you have the engine out - it's really just cheap insurance. Next time I tear out my engine I'll be doing a few mods to the oiling system - for the same reason.

    manual boost controlelrs

    I'm still using one. It's tough to justify spending hundreds on something that a $25 item seems to do just as well. Got mine from DocJonez, it's great - works like a charm, too.

    Fuel cut ???

    Nope. I had a leak, I could still boost to 14psi. The leak had to get pretty bad before I had problems boosting. As in, I had a crack almost all the way around the coupler from the 3000 pipe to the throttle body.

    Need some help testing my pic hosting site

    Ya, sure, it's just you. Doesn't everyone keep their desktop resolution at 3200x2400? Seriously, that's too big for the internet. I resize mine to 1024x768, and note that anyone who wants a higher resolution photo can email me and I'll send it to them.

    ? to custom fabricators about elbow

    It's not a matter of being kind or cruel - in this case it's simply a matter of we can't give you what we don't have. There isn't anyone on here (that I am aware of, anyhow) using complex computer operated equipment to put these parts together - it's just hobbyists welding up what works in...

    Aftermarket Flywheel

    My RPS is great. Some members have had problems with the RPS unit, but mine was flawless and works great to this day. I am running a spec stage 3 plus the RPS billet flywheel.

    HID retrofit.

    We have the room, I've seen them mounted in the Supra already. Actually, he wrote up a nice article on how to put them in, it's located here: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2419 As for the initial power requirement, I think the gayernet is incorrect in this case. As I...

    Dude! Who wants a 4 megapixel image over the internet??? I rarely shoot pictures that high when I am printing them!

    Official SF thread

    I think this would be a violation of their house rules, actually. I'm not concerned about the trolls coming here though. After all, they are F&F kids who think that anything other than a Mk4 isn't a *real* Supra. ;)

    HID retrofit.

    This is going to be a lot simpler than you think. Losing your highbeams would not be a real problem from what I hear - AFAIK the HID lowbeams allow you to see better than your current Halogen high beams anyhow, with the exception of overhead signs that aren't self lit. If you can afford...

    Siman, how big are the images that you are trying to send? Dimensions and filesize, please. I basically just picked a big number when setting that value, if it's too small, I'd seriously consider revising it upwards.
