Well, heat transfer on a 40 degree day is juuuuust a bit easier than on a 90 degree day. But hey- as long as your happy with your system's performance. Again- my oem-type rad was only a year old and it would overheat in the summer with a fan shround and no undercover. Switched to a larger...

Congrats man. I'd like to see some dyno results with that setup, as mine is quite similar.

Say- here's another way to look at the 180* Tstat idea: If your cooling system has little to no margin to keep down temps in anything other than low-stress driving conditions, you get a temp rise when you boost, right? OK, and let's say that's with the 192* Tstat. What does that mean is...

This story kinda reminds me of my MR2. Sit back and relax kids.... Once upon a time, my roomate, who was selling timeshares at that time, gets an offer to head down to and live in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico for 6 months, and sell down there. He decides to go, and so does his work buddy, who...

Ask the mods to move this to the build-up gallery, and good luck with the swap.

Well, It seems that the Haste model at least accepts OEM mounts, so that's nice. PS- If your cooling system truly has a safety margin, that would mean that your 'boost runs' wouldn't make the temp rise at all. Before I had my new rad, my car's temp would start creeping up in the summer...

I have a CSR aluminum rad, and It works great. It's shaped exactly like a stock unit, but is a 2 row unit made completely of aluminum, so it's a compromise between stock and high performance(~PWR) design. It's also at a middle price- I paid $230. If I had to buy off of Ebay, I'd prolly give the...

Or you could split the difference and pick up a set of Probe forged units. :naughty: BUT- if you're not looking for >400HP, I don't think you need them.

I agree. When you rev it up, do you hear a whistling/whining sound from the turbo? If a hose is semi-popped or popped off, the turbo tends to spin a bit faster.

Same with fan shrouds. I looked on Ebay and in the for sale section for a good used(~20 yr old) one, but no luck, except for one on E-gay going for $145! I ordered a brand new one from Jay Marks for $67! Waiting by the door for it to arrive.

Aha. And yes, as mentioned above, it shouldn't take more than an hour(in my experience) for the car to normalize.

LMAO! Yeah. I think we might have found part of the problem. Time your cams as per TSRM. Also, judging by video #3, I think I see another reason you have no power- You have NO GAS. http://s87.photobucket.com/albums/k134/erincantoo/?action=view&current=07-13-08a011.flv

Yes, but it only takes a little while for the ecu to relearn things. However, If the ecu WAS the problem, resetting it won't change anything that would keep it from starting, as far as I can imagine. Have you yet done what I suggested? And if that didn't work, have you checked the obvious, like...

Well, If the car won't start then either the OEM or the Viper starter disable is doing it's thang.

Did you have them disable the factory theft deterrent? Because If you tested it at the store, and they never locked the car for more than 30 seconds or so, It would never have armed. It may have armed when you got home and left it, and when you went to unlock it without the key, it'd disable the...

And I'll agree with SilverSupraT....Again! : )

Of course. And honestly, If you opened up your exhaust, I don't think you'd have to do anything else to reach 300WHP.

Personally, I'd prolly do the short shifter mod, and use a larger shift boot, so that it'd look a bit more at home. And as for the grill, I would also suggest some sort of chrome or billet insert to allow airflow, but close up the hole, as previously mentioned above. AND- paint the IC black.

Saw this a while back, thought it was relevant. http://www.hrpworld.com/googlebase.cfm?key=Toyata%20Supra&form_prod_id=,209,334,_1337&action=product

I'm really sorry, man. And that's just a kick in the nuts about paying storage fees. "Hey- some guys stole your car and drove it for a while, but then they needed some cash, so they stripped the cool shit and sold it. If it wouldn't be too much bother, could you just go ahead and pay a thousand...
