hey guys i have a question, i just recieved my maft gen2 and i was driing and trying to tune a little to get rid of fuel cut and ecause my air fuels are at about 10.5 via my zeitronix. so i go out and i take about 5% out of around 4krpm and up, and it doesnt change much on my zeitronix. so i...

well if the supra rear is anything like my '94 yota pickup rear, its actually fairly simple. they use adjusting rings that take the place of shims and are threaded. to get the right preload and backlash u just turn the rings on either side and make the needed adjustments. rather then having to...

anyone else?

yea i met the guy today hes not on the forums, hes older somewhere from high 30's to high 40's.

whileso n the topic of old sckool yotas, heres my celica, 77 liftback picked her up for 600. shes currently sitting in my backyard awating a 302, t5 and ford 8.8.

so when would full spool come on in a supra, an 88 camaro is prolly either a 350 or a 305, unless u thre it on a 3800 v6 lol, but if it was a 5 liter comign on around 3200 then full spool would be like what 4 4.5k?

i did say that i wasnt exactaly sure how it was implemented but it is the basic idea. i just looked up the prius and its actually very interesting. i havnt seen pics of its exact setup but it seems as though it uses the planatary set and instead of holding one portion of it like in a...

well yea i figured turning the heater on was like a given lol, whoops. ill edit that in

its liek a snowmobile, in a snomobile and go carts that are equiped they use a variable diameter pully. it uses a v shaped belt that rides inbetween 2 pully halves. as the rpms go up the pully halves get pulled closer together pulling the belt further from the center or effectivly making the...

i rebuilt my motor and i must be extreamly lucky becasue i got that noise for the first day i drove my car, after that i never had another problem. try jacking the front of the car up, with the e-brake on lower it so the front tires are on top of cement blocks. open radiator cap, fill untill...

i checked and i didnt see any build threads made by adjuster, it looks as though hes got the master power one anyway, i will be buying the cheap ebay special. the ebay t70 u have oon ur camaro is that the masterpower one? or just ebay special $250 one? hows it boost up, i hear they surge...

any updates?????

hey guys, im lookin for a cheap turbo for a summer or 2 (READ: cheep and fast) and im lookin at either getting a ebay t3/t4 or a ebay t-70. the only thing is that i dont really kno what these turbos compare too. the t3/t4's iveseen are about the same size as a gt2871 but the wheel trim is alot...

well how did he go threw 2 thermos in 3 months? idk i just dont understand how getting a bigger radiatior will break the thermosat lol. and i dont really think the pressure would break it because by the time the coolant is hot enough to build up any real amount of pressure its prolly hot enough...

y will upgrading the radiator and such break the 160 degree stat?

hey, i spotted a car at stop and shop on 112 in port jeff. i see this car almost every day there. its a black 86 with a 89+ tail conversion, appears to be non turbo and mostly stock. left a note on the window.

or if the road dips or tilts. also dont forget the launch when the car tips back, it tilts it back and adds g-force to it from gravity upping the horsepower reading or lowering the 1/4 mile time. i used mine in my friends mustang GT 2003 and it said 300 horsepower and it was all stock. next time...

but if its off then it wouldnt be that accurate in changing mods, your best bet is to use the g-force readout and when u accelerate look for the highest amount of g-force u can make, thne do ur mods and do it again. since the hosepower and 1/4 mile times are inconsistent it could be calibrated...

same thing as a g-tech, suposedly there accurate but i dont think so.

manual are more efficient, but autos have the advantages that overcome the slight inefficiencies. for example the extra 10-20 horse a manual will put out due to less drivetrain loss, is needed to keep up with the full boost launch and constant boost shifts of an auto. I beleive CVT's are still...
