    Small Speakers for 89+

    Technically, aren't the rears on 86.5-88 more like a 4.5 or 5 inch? All I know is that 4's are too small, and 5 1/4's need modification(which I did).

    I count $4, $42, and I'm guessing $40 pressing, $75 full alignment. How much are your paychecks?

    How do you remove the wheel hub/bearings?? Need Help ASAP Thank You

    I just did the driver's side hub, the tie rod came off easily enough with a tie rod fork & 5lb hammer. DONT hit the threaded section unless you plan to replace the entire outer tie rod, which ISN'T a bad idea if it's original. As for the spindle itself, you have a fun time getting that out of...

    My new 7M buildup...long road.

    No real news lately except purchases.... Bought a 130amp alternator, set of BBC springs for the valves, new oil pressure sender, bought into the Probe piston group buy, and just picked up a Kaminari whale tail(always loved it's subtelty over the Bomex version). Will have new pics up this week...

    Cam layout discussion

    OK- that is awesome. I was thinking that the future of the valvetrain would have some sort of slide-valve technology, to get rid of the up-down reciprocating mass, but roller valves? Brilliant.

    What's a safe way to fry an alternator?

    Here's the deal: Back about a year ago, I went to an auto parts store to get a turbo alternator. Inventory showed that they actually had two of them on the shelf, so I got one, went outside and bolted it in. Then I realized it was a nonturbo alternator, in a turbo box. Undoubtedly, someone like...

    Starter bolt secret.

    LMAO! That's not a vibration problem- that's just the Supra trying to shed some of the shit bolted to it! J/K- couldn't help myself...:naughty: Hey- Did you resurface the flywheel before putting the new clutch in? Generally, a clutch will chatter if it's bolted to an uncut flywheel, at least...

    Who here is running an MR2 alternator in their car?

    No, just a little bigger, but I've got an FPR line right behind it, and I didn't want things to squeezed together back there. I read that it'll fit with no real mods at all.

    Toggle switch for ABS.

    Um, I didn't get the impression that hes was trying to remove it, just add a switch that allows disabling when desired, as well as the fact that it's supposedly going to be a rally car. Maybe someone can tell me- Do race cars-aka- NASCAR, CART, Formula 1- use ABS? I've never heard. PS-...

    Who here is running an MR2 alternator in their car?

    I just ordered the 130amp alternator from Egay. I imagine it is simply a rewound, stock alternator, or maybe they use a different type of regulator or IC's. I had planned on doing the MR2 alternator, but didn't want to deal with squeezing that oversize badboy in there with the fuel plumbing I have.

    Breaking 300hp on the STOCK Turbo

    Yeah, I thought the Doctor made close to 400hp on stock, IIRC. I made 260hp on 8psi, so I can't imagine it'd be too tough to break 300.

    stubborn oil galley plug

    [Michael Jackson music in the backround...] That bolt is really stuck- it's simply not fair- It's supposed to be removed but it don't seem to care You better hit it up with more than just cold air, so- Heat it. Just heat it. I'm sorry- I was bored. ANYWAY- Use a propane torch to warm it up
