    WTF is Bitron 4 Real?

    Dyno test will only be convincing if it's a before and after scenario, preferably also someone we know. I'll be happy to do it!:naughty:

    WTF is Bitron 4 Real?

    I've gotta say I'm intrigued. For me it'll have to wait until I fix everything else.

    NA/T conversion (I know, another one)

    Yeah, a stock HG will last for a good amount of time if you're not pushing the boost past 6-7psi and you're not always driving like a madman. Anyone remember how the psi on a GE block compares to a GTE block? I saw a comparison before. Something along the lines of 7psi on a GE = 10psi on a...

    NA/T conversion (I know, another one)

    Will a 1/2 N/A-T even have fuel cut? Remember he;s going to be running the N/A electronics.

    NA/T conversion (I know, another one)

    MAFT PRO, might as well switch over to a MAP system while you're at it. Off the top of my head here's a quick list: GTE injectors Exhaust manifold Turbo (duh) Oil pan with oil return bung added for the turbo Oil cooler Oil filter relocation kit IC Downpipe AFPR Fuel controller...

    Threaded fitting on Koyo radiator

    For those who are planning on getting a Koyo. Subaru radiators (I'm not sure if it's all models and years) use a 16mm x 1.5 nylon drain cock. It's a perfect fit and no worries about different metals reacting and they've got a rubber washer built into them. The one I picked up matches the smaller...

    Windows groan and Click...

    I can't think of anything other than loose guides and wornout felt on the two inner steel guide arms... The two metal arms with the felt wrapping them are what seem to hold the window in place the most when it's down all the way. They adjust the in and out (or side to side). When the felt wears...

    Are any of N/a'ers Running an Aluminum Driveshaft

    Actually, I have no vibration issues at all. Haven't pushed past 100 since I've installed it, but no noise up to 100MPH. I don't know if I got licky or if Jaws' DS is just that well made, but I'm very happy with it. The reports of vibration had me very edgy about going to a one piece. The...

    how to set window back on track?

    Definitely sounds like one of the guides is loose.

    Windows groan and Click...

    New felt guides and tighten and adjust the nylon guides.... It's not a bad job, just take your time and make sure the window seals properly when it's up.

    Are any of N/a'ers Running an Aluminum Driveshaft

    I have their one piece steel on my '88 N/A 5 spd. I love it. The acceleration is more responsive, due both to reduction of rotating mass and removing the loss created by the carrier bearing. I only notice the 'one piece whine' which alot of people mention when i decellerate very quickly. I...

    I'm waiting on the first CC I'm putting one in. I suspect it'll be here this week. I will let you know how it turns out, but it may not until next week or so that i'll be able to get pictures.

    CLEAR REAR INDICATOR CONVERSION.......

    Hey Wolfie! I'm not really even a hobbyist when it comes to casting. I've worked with it a few times back when I was employed with a local plastics fabrication company, but most of my experience is in working with acrylic casts, extrusions, etc. Your products look great! I love that unlike...

    CLEAR REAR INDICATOR CONVERSION.......

    Yes, there is a lip on the amber lens. I have made a few accurate molds of both parts. I made them using both latex and silicone mediums. My issue has been the presence of bubbles on the inside of the retroreflector everytime I attempted to produce a lens. I suspect I may need a more rigid...

    CLEAR REAR INDICATOR CONVERSION.......

    I've dissected 3 side markers from an '87 and an '88 Supra. Those, as far as I recall, were cemented. I ended up using a fine toothed saw to cut them apart.

    Lights went out/don't work

    Well, I'd pull it and test it with a multimeter. You can also try throwing the relay with a 9v battery and then test for continuity on the two switched contacts. Also try testing the four lines to running to it, both while switched on and while off.
