Depends on the grit of the honing device and what type and how much bigger it is then your bore. If its a course grit and is significantly larger then your bore it will take more off then a fine grit slightly larger apparatus. Do a little and remeasure. shouldnt make THAT big of a difference.

Since its the only thing you changed i would bet thats it. Is it heated? IIRC the stock one is. What are your other mods?

Jeez, dont listen to these guys, they have NO clue. The barbecue grills wastegate regulates the flow of propane to the heat element. Its kind of like a fuel pressure regulator on a car. its what threads onto the valve of the propane tank.

Do you feel like you lost power, Boost is a measure of resistance to flow not power. Lower boost making same power just means you had more resistance.

Maybe after cool down while the hose is collapsed, just take the radiator cap off and see if the hose goes back to normal, That would be a pretty simple test.

The Best build for a 7m is one built for your needs. There no such thing as a universal best built 7m for everyone. Questions you need to answer. 1) Power Goal 2) Power band RPM 3) Realistic Budget 4) Realistic use for said engine An engine is just an engine, 15-18psi is meaningless...

What area?

Must be something different, the RPO codes are needed to see what parts you need to replace when they break, There the codes for what suspension, brakes, paint code, blah blah. Its a sticker more then a sheet, about the size of a credit card.

Jdub: so they didnt change any of the hard parts like sprags or anything? Only thing you did was have the input and output shafts cryo treated? Anyone else? Might be rebuilding soon so i want to see what i need. Goal of 500hp's eventually so want to build for that level.

Asterix: Its cool, no hard feelings just discussion. :) My point i was making is the only out of pocket money the manufacturer spends is on materials to make the parts. Same example of the wooden chair. If the wood/nails/glue/bolts cost you 50 bucks and all you have to do was...

Maybe very deep snow or sand where the wheels would dig in and create a stopping force from the sand buildup in front of the tire from it sinking. Though if your driving on that type of surface with this car A) you will have a hard time driving at all unless you install a lift kit and super...

GM puts RPO (option codes) on a white sticker in the glove box or in the trunk, never seen anything on my supra, though i never really looked. Paging Jeff......

500's only an awesome price compared to what the normal price is, thats about double for most other cars, nothing awesome about that.

VEE: what are these situations where the brakes SHOULD be locked? just out of curiosity.

Ive read the thread, i didnt glance back to notice it was you that made them though. I also posted in it, guess you missed it. No offense but you should read my post again. First part: I just said someone (now i know it was you) made the bushings in the kit for themselves (one off custom...

there 500 bucks less worth it for a 240sx? its the same materials used, just different shapes. sure there good to have and im sure they make a world of difference, but you could buy a T4 journal bearing turbo for that money. hell for another 250 bucks you could get a set of Coilivers. Bushings...

Sounds like a personal problem.

I wasnt saying that in a demeaning way or anything, just incase it was perceived that way.

Well alrighty then.

heh, just noticed, why do you have the chemical composition of LSD in your sig?
