    Dash/Climate Control lights go out.

    Ok My dash lights don't work, at all. And my Climate control goes out, all the lights, controls, everything dies when I turn the marker or headlights on. Did a quick search and it seems to be my dimmer switch that has caused problems like this. All fuses are ok, the CC only working when lights...

    crooked valve stems?

    So I recently bought a remanufactured 7M head and the ends of some valves seem to be ground down crooked. It looks like someone took the tips to a grinding wheel or file and didn't get them straight. What's the best way to grind these stem tips back to flat? Or should I just swap out the valves...

    Wastegate size, Tial experiance?

    I need a new wastegate and I'm stuck between the 38mm and 44mm Tial's. I'll be running a GT4088, BC 264 cams, and fuel system to support 600whp. I'm mostly concerned is the 38mm going to be too small? I don't want to creep and have to buy the 44mm in the end anyway. The price difference is...

    Identifying Head.

    I've got a rebuilt 7M head that I plan on using in my rebuild. Not sure on the history of it though. How do I tell if it has been machined before? Will a machine shop be able to tell this? and how will I know what thickness of a HG to use? Thanks.

    Lightweight flywheel worth it?

    I need to upgrade my clutch and I'm debating whether or not to replace the flywheel with a lightweight one while I'm in there. Anyone go to a LW flywheel and loved it/hated it? How much of a difference did you notice? throttle response? acceleration? pedal feel? Is it worth it or is the...

    Different Windshield Wipers?

    Well my wipers are old and alittle rusty and I don't like the bolt-on type wiper where you have to replace the blade and can't just get the newer type clip-on blades. So are there any other Wiper arms off another Toyota that will bolt onto our cars?
