I am running a W58 behind my 7mgte and recently replaced the spec stage 3+ non turbo clutch in it because I had a problem with it not fully disengaging sometimes. When I pulled it out, I found that some of the springs were working their way out of the center hub, but couldn't see where they had...

I'm running a spec stage 3 NA clutch with my 7mgte/w58 combo, I have had this setup for over 3 years without any problems. The clutch was out about 15,000 miles ago when the engine was, and it was inspected and put back in, nothing wrong with it. Recently I developed this issue where I cant get...

My car has had this misfire after cold start for as long as I can remember. I have rebuilt this engine twice, have had stock and different piggback computers on it, and it has always done it. When I get in the car in the morning and drive off, the car feels jerky in first and second gear right...

Just bought a set of RC injectors that came with the push release style injector clips (rather than the snap in wire version) and it looks like it is going to be a tight fit on the 7m. I am just wondering if anyone has used this style of clip and does it fit between the rail and the head/valve...

I just have a few simple questions regarding the Lexus AFM upgrade. I know a lot of people have done this upgrade, so I figure there will be a lot of input. A list of my current mods to begin with... Walbro 255LHP pump Denso 550CC injectors pnp Aeromotive FPR 3" exhaust 57trim CT26 2.5"...

Never gave it much thought, but looking at the cooling system flow for the 7M I am a little confused. Maybe I am missing something very simple. What is the purpose of the highlighted line? What causes coolant to flow through this line? Coolant enters the line through the heater banjo at the...

Just wondering if anyone had any pics of the silencer that came with their mk3 nur spec exhaust. I am trying to purchase one and most of them that I have seen have about a 6 inch long pipe on the back of it like this, but the one that I am looking to buy which is from blitz themselves has a very...

Let me start by saying that I have been driving for approximately 7 years and have never had any traffic violations. I always drive reasonably on the street because I know how dangerous speeding can be. The other night (11:15PM, few cars on the road, maybe one vehicle every 15 to 30 seconds) I...

Curious to see if anyone has used www.GotBoostInc.com. I ordered some ST springs for my Supra about a week ago, and my order status has been blank since the moment I ordered them. I emailed them yesterday and have gotten no response, and also tried calling multiple times with no pick up. Curious...

Well I am changing my suspension from a coilover setup back to a stock style spring/strut setup, and I don't have any of the original parts, so I am buying all new. I bought two new KYB upper shock mounts, but I am not sure if they include everything I need. It seems from this EPC pic there is...

So I decided to use push lock hose for my oil filter relocation that I did with my rebuild, but I am a bit concerned. I have mounted the filter head under the passenger side headlight with the oil lines coming through the factory airbox opening. The oil lines are routed under the power steering...

So I have struggled getting really freezing cold AC in my 86.5 Supra for about 4 years now. Living out in the AZ dessert seemed to take a toll on my stock AC system. I went through it multiple times making sure everything was 100% perfect, and even still it struggled. I did a lot of research and...

Just want to be 100% sure I am installing these right. I havent been able to find any detailed install instructions for these, but from what I read around the net is to put the opening in the lock about 90 deg from the slot in the piston. Is this correct? One of my OEM pistons I pulled out of my...

Well with my new build I am doing, I went with Wiseco .5mm oversize pistons. This block was rusted out pretty good, but when I measured it I was sure it would clean up. The entire block cleaned up except for this one part. The machine shop gave it back to me like this, but the more I look at it...

Im interested in adding a small 1.5" oil pressure gauge to my engine bay for my new build. Would be nice to have one to glance at and make sure oil pressure is good. I really want the large low PSI range so I can look at the idle pressure of the 7m (will be around 10 PSI), so I don't want a...

Just wondering if anybody has had success with draining their turbo into the stock oil cooler return location on the pan? Did some searching and some people thought it was too low in the pan, others said it was fine. I am using an NA block for my build, so I won't have the stock drain location...

Alright well I am sure this is a rather common problem, but I am young and have no experience with this sort of stuff, this is the first place I have lived away from home. So here is the deal, I live in a two bedroom apartment, one bedroom is mine, and the other is my roommates. We are both on...

Well I was thinking about throwing a manual shut off valve for the heater core into my truck for the summertime just to keep any chance of extra heat out of the cab. I remember that in the Supra (and probably other vehicles) the heater control valve never shuts off coolant flow 100%, and leaves...

Well, I had done a pull in my car one day up to about 110 mph, and ever since that time the engine has been smoking from the exhaust rather badly. I had done plenty of pulls before without issue, but this time it seemed to cause something. Anyways, I took the motor apart and this is what I...
