Cars ready for paint, any recommendations on paint codes? I'm set on painting black, but not sure which black to use. Painter friend recommended Honda b92p nighthawk black, which is a blue pearl, but I'm not so sure about that. Not sure about the Toyota black either because I've heard they...

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...

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...

I searched and sifted through many threads, but I couldn't find the answer to my issue. Power steering is weak at low RPM's, it turns fine once I start moving. How do you know which power steering component is failing? Trial and error? I noticed many threads said that the rack needed to be...

Does anybody know the name/or part number for the large o ring for the oil filter? Finishing up my build, can't find it. Guess I'm going to order it from Toyota because local autoparts store doesnt carry it. Tia

I just wanted to verify that rounding down to a HG size will not cause any problems. My block measured out to 198.35, which is .15mm off stock after machining. The head was 115.25 or .75mm off stock. I need a 2.27mm HG. Cometic HG's do not come in that exact size, but after searching I saw...

Hello everybody. When I first got the car I went back and re-torqued the head. Didn't have a torque wrench, so I just tightened without it...but this was before I had done any serious modifications. I recently blew my headgasket (no major blow, just barely), and I have decided to go ahead and...

I am currently in the market for a turbo. I have the stock CT26, and am considering CT26 with 57 and 60 trim. Why does the 60 trim have a reputation for being unreliable? I am also very interested in bolt on turbos, but I can't seem to find much information on them. My friend had a 57 and...

I wired up 3 Prosport gauges recently and they are working except I could not get the orange wire (used to switch the colors to blue when headlights engage) for the gauges to work on the fuses. So I took out my ashtray and pressed the end of the orange wire into the back of the ashtray courtesy...

Hello. I have a 89' 7MGTE that will no longer start and reads code 52. I have used the search function, and I think I've found all of the information I need to go through the rewiring process for the knock sensors. However, I still have a couple questions. If these have been answered before...
