    Fuel Pulsation Dampener, unlucky or is there something else going on?

    I have not bypassed the J-tube. I just must be unlucky with these things. Hopefully, the next one will hold. It sucks having to wait to drive the car because of a small defective part. It's so easy to change too.

    Fuel Pulsation Dampener, unlucky or is there something else going on?

    My fuel dampener is currently leaking from the top where it looks like it has been crimped against itself (metal on metal) from Toyota. I bought 2 more off of SM, but I found that these two leaked from the top as well. I have a third one on the way that should be here soon, and then I will...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    Yea thanks for the advice. I'm glad I didn't pick them up. I decided against it. It was just one of those times where you get such a good deal, and you really want to make it work. I'm going to keep looking.

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    Thanks for the reply Cyrus. I don't want that. Would this be something spacers would be able to fix or should I just scrap this and keep looking?

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    I read through a lot of the first pages. I might have a good deal on some Enkei RFP1s...but not sure what they will look like. I didn't see the sizes of these wheels under the common fits or stock setups. The wheel and tire sizes are front 17 x 7.5 +48 5x114.3 with 225/45ZR17 and rear 17 x 9...

    Looking for a paint shop

    Yes, it is a lot of money, but if you want the best (as close to a factory paint as you can) I've read it will cost 5k+. On the other end, you could do a Maaco if you're not looking to spend money and last a few years. How much are you looking to spend? You may want to ask around at different...

    Question on installing MHG pertaining to lower timing cover and copper spray.

    I went with the Titan Cometic gasket. I haven't had the chance to put many miles on it yet, but it is holding up good thus far.

    Looking for a paint shop

    I know of a reputable painter who has his own paint shop near the Nashville area (but it's outside of Nashville), he has top of the line equipment and facilities (he just upgraded to a I believe $100,000 paint booth and he does a lot of high-end cars), but it will cost you. My quote was around...

    Setting timing w/ MAFT Pro, Diagnostic Box not adjusting RPMS

    You're right, I managed to miss the code 22 when I was checking before trying to set timing. I'll take care of the codes first, and see where I'm at.

    Setting timing w/ MAFT Pro, Diagnostic Box not adjusting RPMS

    MAFT Pro is running latest version and all base settings recommended in Quick start up MKIII guide in MAFT Pro thread. I can post my MAFT settings just to be sure if necessary. Timing is enabled, but I have F-In set to 0 and all Timing settings at 0. Any ideas? I'm not sure where to start.

    Setting timing w/ MAFT Pro, Diagnostic Box not adjusting RPMS

    I'm trying to use the timing light to adjust my CPS to the proper position. I have double checked to make sure everything to this point is correct. I turn on my car, and jumper E1 and Te1 to adjust timing to the correct mark; however, the diagnostic box when jumpered is not retarding my timing...

    MAFT Pro install/setup

    I bought my MAFT Pro from somebody that had enabled the unit for timing, I'm not ready for this yet? Is there a way to disable this option? Would changing F-In to 0 and switching all timing parameters to 0 disable timing? Thanks in advance

    Question on installing MHG pertaining to lower timing cover and copper spray.

    The block head, and timing cover need to be resurfaced all at once. The stock head gasket is made out of a composite material that allows for a higher margin of error like others have stated. Metal head gaskets do not have that same margin for error. If you sand that cover yourself, and it is...

    Is it worth to raise ti back??? ----> MK3...

    Does the car run now? If it doesn't run, does the previous owner know what happened to it cause it to no longer run? In my case, I spent more money on a motor that was in good condition, but I ended up doing a rebuild anyway. In retrospect, I wish I had found one where the engine was in good...

    New car, new project. Asking for advice on my build.

    I would like to refer you to the sticky at the top of the forum: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?97552-Head-Gasket-thickness-selection. If you do not use the proper sized head gasket, it will blow again prematurely or cause other problems, and you could find yourself in the same...
