    Anyone out there in MI?

    Yup, Speedfreak426 over there as well. I try not to post all that much there but I still frequent it every day for the local car news fix. I think we could involve the supra guys here with the xceed meets even if it won't be all supras, the more people the more likely it is to happen...

    I'm down. I'll bring my supra powered celica. I will only be able to go in the mid-later part of summer though.

    Driftmotion clutch line

    I used the full length clutch line from DM when I put the 7M in my celica. It worked absoutely beautifully! Perfect, no leaks, nothing.

    fuel cut on stock engine with DDP?

    I have a big mouth downpipe, 3" exhaust, stock internals, 2.5" intercooler pipes and not much else..... I hit fuel cut at 9.5psi, normally around 4000rpm, especially in 3rd and 4th gear (but my 7m is in a 1977 celica if that matters) No boost leaks.

    My 1977 7M-GTE CELICA! Finished! Test drive vid on page 18!

    I am not running the T rear, I thought about it... but I ended up putting a rear end from a 1968 440 Dodge Dart. Should be plenty strong. If you look in some of the pics you can see that the rear is now 5 lug.

    Piston Slap? Ridges on bottoms of cylinders (pics and vids) Help!!

    I'm not really sure, it's not really a hard ridge, there is a ridge there, but it is smooth to the touch.... It does not catch your fingernail while running over it. Hard to explain. There is almost no ridge at the tops of the cyl's :( :1zhelp:

    Piston Slap? Ridges on bottoms of cylinders (pics and vids) Help!!

    :cry: Kind of hard when all of the engine parts are laying on top of the toolbox and the transmission is in pieces.... and there is snow on the ground! LOL anyways, I didn't ever notice the noise on start up while DDing it. Only on that vid. I didn't watch the video til like a week...

    Piston Slap? Ridges on bottoms of cylinders (pics and vids) Help!!

    The noise at the end of the video is just a heat shield rattling. IJ: When I looked at the pistons last I was pretty sure there were no markings on the crowns of the pistons? I dont have access to a big enough vernier caliper or t bar mic I don't think. I will check at work tomorrow though...

    I am both stupid and a speedjunkie :naughty: I just can't stop myself for some reason :nono: At least I am not dumb enough to do it with anyone else around. Maybe when I pull the car apart I will get a vid of the gps for you
