My rear subframe was somewhat rusty and I found that it was cracked as well. Therefore I am replacing it with a used southern subframe but I would like to replace the rear subframe bushings. I thought this might be a good thread to post the different sources and pricing for front and rear...
Can anyone confirm if any of the control arms need to retain the OEM bushing's outer sleeve when installing the Energy Suspension front and rear bushing kits? The instructions do not mention anything about this but I figured I would as before I get one out and find out I need it.
Heres a few videos from my car out on Blackhawk Farms Raceway and USAIR so far this year. I have a few more events coming up so I will keep updating the thread with new videos.

Hi everybody,
Well it appears to me that it is now my turn to replace the 7mgte head gasket in my car. However the car acts pretty oddly so I figured I would throw this thread up just in case anybody had some ideas regarding it.
First off, I take my car out onto road racing tracks and this is...
Guys,
My original clutch is finally starting to give up the ghost after about 104k miles. I am wondering what others think the best clutch is for a car with 300-350 whp. I am looking to go with a lightweight flywheel, and would like to keep pedal feel close to stock with driveability near...

Guys,
Today I was going through my car checking some sensors (TPS) with my multimeter and for shits and giggles I checked my codes. I decided to see if I could get code 51 pressing the gas (verifying my check on the TPS) and it worked perfectly.
Since i was in a code 51 mood I decided to...
Guys,
I was wondering if under any circumstances people have had to port a stock turbo wastegate on our cars. My car is currently spiking up to 13 psi (no shims, no boost controller) and I just replaced the wastegate actuator vac line from the compressor outlet.
I am aware that the problem...

Guys,
I am just wondering what others have done to replace these brackets when the wire separates from the bracket? I contacted Curt at Elmhurst Toyota and would have to purchase a new ABS sensor to get the brackets so that is not going to happen...:nono:

Guys,
I was wondering if any of you knew the torque spec on the water outlet housing?
