Hi folks, I'm experiencing a strange phenomenon, that the boost only gets up to 0.5 bar on second gear! First gear, it boosts to 1 bar seemingly without prob, but doesn't get beyond 0.5 at second. Any ideas? I've got an Aristo 2J in, with usdm turbos (550 injectors pending, due to suspect...

my Mk3 has a 2JZ in it from the aristo, and initially the mighty 2JZ presented some problems with overheating, which has since been resolved with a larger aluminiium radiator and 2 electric fans in it. yesterday i thought i' wake up turbo no 2 (its still runing on the stock twins), and...

hi friends, i've just installed a used LSD i got from a fellow member here... it has new oil inside, was running ok ytd after installation. and then there was a high pitch whine coming from the car this morning, onviously from some moving component, as itgoes away when the car stops. prime...

hi friends, i've discovered a crackin the hose of the intake manifold. i'm thinking of buying a silicone hose and replacing it, instead of the standard Toyota rubber part. i know theres a kink in the original part, but i figure: silicone is flexible right? so i could shoe horn it in...

i'm just wondering if anyone's made (or if anyone MAKES) replacement manifolds out of say stainless steel, perhaps in a bid to save some weight over the cast manifolds? i'm thinking SS ones are probably lighter. i know its a long shot, this thought occurred to me as i realised that my 2JZ Mk3 is...

on visual inspection, the stabiliser linkages front and rear on the mk3 looks remarkably similar, even though, physically they are different. are they interchangeable? ie, could i use the front linkages at the rear? thanx :P

Can someone help me ID this plug? i found it dangling in the intake manifold area.. i have a '89 7M-GE, RHD though..:).. i've torn apart some stuff to change the cam cover gaskets and exhaust manifold gaskets etc.. and i'm hoping it isnt something that i've torn up and forgotten to plug back...

i found this on ebay! i have this wild idea that this would replace the internals of my stock rear diff casing, and give me an LSD ... how far wrong am i...

i've always thought my wheels stick outwards a little more than all the Mk3's i see in here!! i checked and realised that the stock offset is like +37...and my wheels say "26" somewhere on the inside!!!.. check out the pictures.. it doesnt look right eh? looks like time to get some proper...

hi folks. i've been reading about that dreaded head gasket blowing.. and i've just gotten a 7M-GE supra without any form of history/records; and i'm kinda doing it up as a daily commute, intending to keep it stock. what thickness of metal gaskets should i be looking at? i've seen anything...
