[Paradox]

i think he got a pretty good deal, you paid, what like 4k for that? interior could use some work but otherwise its pretty clean... you can bend that hood back into place yourself if you're careful. heh

[Matt6003]

i paid 3500 for it, yeah it could use a bit of work, but im happy with it. im gonna try and fiddle with the hood a little tomorrow

[Paradox]

was the hood why your left headlight was sticking?

[Matt6003]

i doubt it, i think the left headlight was/is sticking because of a loose connection or a faulty wire

[NashMan]

sniff sniff bring back memoreies when my car was stock

but yae look pretty clean wait telly ou see my beater hehehe

[Paradox]

weird, just noticed something lately...

why the hell would my EGT's be higher with 20W30 instead of 10W30??
(both non synthetic)

[Enraged]

[Paradox]

Well if you want to i can meet you at my car at lunch, im in the Jack White building. And i park in the parking lot right closest to the building there, you are bound to see the celica. I will bring the swaybars with me tomorrow, and i will even take my cell phone and you can call me if you want at lunchtime, and i will meet you out at the car. 893-2505. If i dont answer its cause i was in class still or whatever but just keep trying... I will definately turn the phone on at lunch when i get out of class.

And no im not in Jodis class, she is probably one of the two girls in the Entry Level Training Class? Im in the 2nd year apprentice class.

[Enraged]

good news: cool, got the swaybars :)
bad news: i spent my clutch money on books... boooo urns

you didnt add normal power steering fluid when you noticed that leak did you? mk3's use ATF fluid in the power steering because of heat.. normal PS fluid can overwork the powersteering pump and system..

you're probably due to change all your belts on the car now if they havent been already.

heres a link to a bit of info for PS in the TSRM

http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/sr/SR_45.html

[Matt6003]

I have the actual TSRM, so i've seen all that, all i need to know is how to take off the first belt, AC i think

[Matt6003]

oh and the other belts have all been replaced, just this one hasnt been

[Paradox]

edit: there should be a belt-tensioner right on the AC compressor

[NashMan]

New CF lip from duane, just trying to get ahold of allan to see if he can bring it over for me on his next trip so i dont have to pay $63 for shipping...

[islandsupra]

how much?

[NashMan]

oooooo ooooo

[Enraged]

retail is going to be around US$225 i think. our GB price was $240 CDN

[Enraged]

cool, just paid for it... should be here in a day or two hopefully. now all i have to do is wait for my catch can....

[islandsupra]

hmm... they look nice - but I dunno if I would go for it. I'd probably end up ruining it, and it would be a shame to paint over that.
Duane sure comes out with some breathtaking stuff. I saw one of his hoods, it hangs on a wall in a living room. And I have to say it's probably the most amazing peice of art in the room.

[Enraged]

you arent allowed to get it. we cant have two burgandy pre-89s running around with the same CF lip!

i want to buy a CF hood eventually, but ill have to talk to duane, hopefully i can get a slightly screwed up hood for cheaper. i have a neat paint idea for it :)

[islandsupra]

Don't worry, I don't want to buy it. Like I said, there's no point in painting something like that - and I wouldn't want some random peice of CF on my car looking awkward and out of place.

No offense or nothing, it just seems weird to me.

[Paradox]

one of those lips and a CF hood would look damn sexy on my car

[NashMan]

pretty car are no fun beat up junkers are the best

picking up the motor soon hehehehhe me so happy i think i will ride it wheni get home for fun


still missing lex afm and 2jz thottle cable if i can't get eh stocker to work

[islandsupra]

hmm, 14psi sounds like fun!!
Lemme go check my bank account. I still want your old DP :)

[Slate 85GTS]

How much do you want for your afpr ryan??

[islandsupra]

Hey, I called it first! :P

Guess who just got an 89+ climate control for 50 bucks? And now I have a working pop-up coin thingy, and a holy shit handle that works, and a good ebrake boot. I love the wreckers!

[Enraged]

any more 89+ climate controls? what happened to the console?

ryan - i dont think its safe, especially with your higher compression. run lowboost on breakin anyways....

[islandsupra]

Ah crap, I forgot about the lid Toby. I was looking for stuff for Allan and Greg, and I couldn't keep track of what all I was supposed to be looking for. But there IS a burg. console lid there in really good shape. I can go back tomorrow and grab it, how much do you want to pay maximum? Because if I end up coming to Vic this weekend I can swing by there, pick it up and bring it down with me.

[Enraged]

i dunno, like $10-$20? i dont need one that bad, mines just got a rip and a chunk taken out of it.

[Matt6003]

i can steer again!! the new belt is on and everything works still

[NashMan]

hey bob you wana run 14 psi now don't you

[NashMan]

oh i might be chnaging my exhuast i might angle the muffler so i don't run that many bends any one want a full cat back exhaust that si stight as hell

[Enraged]

run stock boost (no boost controller) while your breaking in your engine, with the stock injectors, and i think it will be fine.

[Matt6003]

[islandsupra]

Originally posted by Matt6003

I just finished putting a new exhaust on my car. I have the stock turbo cat-back which is only about a year old.

Also have a custom 2.5" exhaust from the blue parts car. Both are useless to me.


EDIT : not to try and take any business away from Ryan, but I'm just not too sure if a 3" exhaust would provide enough backpressure for an N/A

[Slate 85GTS]

Originally posted by NashMan

Haha sure!! Im all up for that... sell me your god damn electronic boost controller! I need it :P

[Paradox]

Originally posted by Enraged

i thought you wanted to run my old 2.5" with a cutout?

and 3" will work on a NA without a noticable power loss (theres a big thread on supraforums about this), but you'll gain nothing but noise.

[islandsupra]

Hey Murray, I might have found another 5spd tranny. Are you still searching for one?
I didn't ask the guy how much, but I gotta go back there some time.

[Paradox]

i am, but rather spend money on a beater for winter right now...

get a price for me anyways, just incase :)

[Enraged]

if someone wants it, ill sell it cheap, then build myself a new one. until then ill use it. the cars not a daily driver anymore, so the exhaust level isnt nearly as important as it used to be

[Paradox]

who needs a exhaust anyways.. open DP is the way to go :lol

[Enraged]

why do you think i have the electric cutout :)

[Paradox]

Originally posted by Enraged

to get chics? :P haha, open DP on my car was just too damn loud... i cant say your catback has made it much quiter tho

[Enraged]

haha

if you want quiet, buy a honda

[Paradox]

yeah, im not complaining, i love the sound. but tell that to my neighbours haha

[legally blonde]

Poor Nash Man ..... Cant keep any one updated on car progress because both of this computers have died .......

But progress on the car is going well... slow(wants everything perfect) ... but well.

Any way im sure he will get a new hard drive soon and will be back on ranting and raving about his progress :)

Till then that is the best i can update.

[C-WRX]

This is my sad sad toyota supra story, I found a 1997 Anniversary edition supra in vancouver... with targa top and twin turbo with the price of 39900 so i called and said i'm commin down to buy it, and i went to vancouver with 40g cash and i got to the dealership and they sold my supra the day before i got there, so i came back home and bought my wrx, but the supra still haunts me in my dreams, MAN I WISH I GOT ONE

[Enraged]

WRX are nice cars either way :) a good second choice

[Paradox]

i woulda waited for another MKIV to be up for sale.... but yeah, WRX's are pretty killer too. ;)

hey matt, was that you i saw earlier by mcdicks? i wasnt sure

[Matt6003]

yeah that was me, going for a healthy lunch, you woulda just missed another mk3, the one i was gonna buy before too. I swear that kid hates me now that i have a better supra than him

[islandsupra]

I forgot how much supras suck when it's wet out.

[Paradox]

my cars actually pretty good in the wet compared to past cars i've owned. i think its mostly due to tires tho, khumo 712's / BFG G-force's are both great summer & rain tires

[Enraged]

gotta get this thread back up top... come on people give some updates/discussion.

my news:

-head is at the machine shop, getting resurface, valve seals, EGR plugged, cleaning, and inspection. he said it looks good, so hopefully i wont need a valve grind.
-i also picked up the colormatched paint for my mouldings and tails, and after payday im goin to get some paint for the wheels. since im stuck with ugly stockers until i can save some money up, im painting them gunmetal :)
-the CF lip is paid for and hopefully will arrive soon.
-now that i have the swaybars, i just need a decent day to put them and the new springs on...

Ryan or Bob: how much to put the engine back together? :)

Happy TurkeyDay boys and girls.

[Paradox]

get it back on the road!!

so i can drive it :)

[Enraged]

you can drive mine if i can drive yours :)

[islandsupra]

haha, Don't worry Matt. I've had my car for around 2 years now and my mod list consists of nothing but an exhaust. And that was only within the past few weeks, well and a second engine I suppose, lol.

You always have plans, but something else seems to come up always at the wrong moment.

im pickin up an oil filter relocation kit tomorrow from jas.

ryan - got any decent oil/tranny coolers for cheap from work?

i also need an NA oil filter adapter if you have one or know of one cheap.

[Matt6003]

well fuck, i've got rod knock

[Paradox]

:( i hope not... check your ECU codes. see if the knock sensor is going off. i've heard a few knocks around my engine bay that sounded bad at first, but ended up just being loose piping/bolts/etc.

[Paradox]

http://www.supras.com/04/resources/index.php?id=4&q=code

[NashMan]

fuck me my reg that they said will work will not work cause it does not have gauge port but i might beable to run a t fitting in the main line to get my reading but this is gay i tell yae means i got ot run out and buy some fittigns this is hella gay i tell yae

i am pretty sure this will work right if i add in t fitting on my mian line but i thinki mgith have pulaces persur ecaus eof the injector pauls and such

any one els think the same way

[Enraged]

ask murray, he has a afpr :)

[Paradox]

my aeromotice AFRP has like 3 inputs. i dont know what ryan is using. i just have one port blocked off. the blocked could be used for future NAWZZZZZZ use. :D

if you just want it for the gauge, i say ditch the gauge. i mean how often do you really need to monitor fuel pressure? from my 2+ year experience, it is basically never, asside from tuning a base level for idle. just pickup a autometer $15 fuel guage to bolt into the AFPR and let er rip, the interior gauge is a waste of $$$ IMO

[NashMan]

no what i mena is there si no gauge port in my afpr so this means i will ahve to run my littel mini gauge in t fitin ont he main line but the injectors pules might give it an off ready as it will spiek up and down

[Enraged]

ryan, can you get me an NA oil filter adapter from work?

[Matt6003]

well it was confirmed by 3 mechanics today, i definately have rod knock..... What should i do?

[Paradox]

that totally blows matt, i was hoping your car wouldnt have any major probs.

there isnt really anything you can do but get a rebuild or swap in a fresh engine from a wrecker or order a engine from japan, lots of resellers out there, read around on supraforums or supramania for suppliers, prices, reviews, etc.

you can also just switch to a heavier weight oil and live with it for awhile, not sure how long a car with rod knock will stay together tho.

[Paradox]

heavy duty stablizer but yae you crank is fuck now so you have to rebuild your car pretty much yae fun

DAmn.. rod knock sucks.
There's a complete turbo engine up here at South Island Imports. I was talking to the guy and he said it was running fine, except someone just bought the turbo. They are all over the forums and ebay for pretty cheap though.

Might be worth looking in to. If you want I can even stop by and talk to the guy on my way down tomorrow.

[Slate 85GTS]

Hey Ryan, you are running the Greddy Catchcan right? Do you have it setup as a closed/sealed vacuum system or is it just vented to the atmosphere? Ive heard good and bad about both and im buying a catchcan so i need to know how im gonna set it up. Id like to keep the system closed but what do you think? I might have to come see your car if your running it like i want and take some pics so i can do mine the same way.

[Enraged]

ryan, this just became a better option: MAP ECU, US$645: http://www.supramania.supracentral.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=11978&sid=286f6582ebcaa3c2918771545780eaa6

ryan: i was right! ha! :) oil relief plug in the stock 7M-GTE oil filter bracket (as shown here: http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/lu/LU_02.html and http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/lu/LU_15.html ) only opens when oil pressure reaches 35-45 psi. so, by switching to an NA filter mount, oil reaches the oil cooler all the time. however, the downside is by having this set up, you can overcool your oil. so you need an oil thermostat to control how much oil goes to the cooler. luckily, an FC RX7 oil cooler for the 13B has an oil tstat built in. you have one at work, let me know how much and ill give you the cash :)

[NashMan]

teyh fc oil cooler does not have a oil state sorry

i have one int eh rx7 and it doe snot i don't knwo eher you herd this

the biggest thgin thou is rasingin oil persur eis not a good thign at all just tad and that cna be done at the pump it self i am waring you now

and toyota saud they have the same part number any way so i don't knwo caus ei looked intot hat

yae that amkes sence but wehat you told me is it close i was like no it doe snto

as in weaing the psi yaes the 7m gte does do that but theu have the same part number all have to look into thsi but don't put the na thign in it just dumb cause you oil weight will stay at 10 for to long and that is nto good

and most fo the time the revlife vavle is stuck open anys wasy crappy toyota

Ryan, i will come by and get that gasket set off of you if you dont mind, while im there i can check out your engine progress too. Thanks. What brand is the gasket set just out of curiousity? I decided that im just gonna rip it apart and get them to do it properly, its just frustrating but i guess it has to be done...

hey guys i don't have the time to look around to much but i looking for new clutch disk not the hole thign but justt the disk

cause i not going to run my street disk no more so ti is up for grabs now

any wyas i looking at clutch master right now i want a 6 puck disk that is sprung or just plain nice disk

any wya si sellign my disk so mabye you might wan tit toby it beter the the stock one

[Slate 85GTS]

Ryan, i might be interested if its not too much money and toby doesnt want it. Let me know.

[Enraged]

id never buy a used clutch disk, no offense. im going with the spec stage 2, im selling my old mouldings, old wing, and 89+ wing, so ill have enough for it soon i hope (sooner if the datsun sells).

stay away from clutchmasters, ive read some not so great things about them for the 7M. they are great for other applications, but not 7Ms apparantly.

Trent at MVP sells Spec stage 2 disk only for US$200, so the stage 3 6-puck sprung hub will probably be a bit more.

[islandsupra]

Hey Murray - I heard you wanna sell your bumper.

If it's true, let me know! I need a new one.

[NashMan]

teh na pump will hunt you

[Enraged]

na pump?

[NashMan]

NA oil filter mount

bad idea

[Enraged]

how is it a bad idea? all it does is remove the relief valve that you said your turbo one doesnt have, so its the same thing...

[Enraged]

for those with ripped center console covers that want a black or grey one: http://parts.supracentral.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=643

they also have shit and ebrake boots

[islandsupra]

My mod list (DON'T LAUGH!) lol, ok... go ahead.

1 - Apex'i power intake

2 - Suprasport 3" catback exhaust and testpipe with magnaflow straight-thru race series stainless muffler

3 - Suspension Techniques front and rear swaybars, custom (properly engineered) endlinks to come.

4 - Lenso Concept 5 17" wheels, with new kumho 712 rubber (should be here next week).

5 - Oil filter relocator kit (dunno if it counts, but I really like it!)

6 - Newly designed suprasport downpipe (much bigger turbo elbow) going to be ordering in a few weeks, but won't be on until the car is off the road.

7 - custom stereo with Alpine headunit, CDT Audio MS-100 subs (x2), custom fibreglass doorpanels housing a 3-way CDT component set (all 6 speakers located in the doors), JBL 180.2 amp for the subs and Crossfire CFA-404 for the components.

8 - ***new mod*** dented front bumper and passenger side fender, lots of paint missing, broken passenger side signal light. Contemplating upgrade to 89+ front bumper (I don't know why, but it's the only peice on the 89+ exterior I like better than the 87-88).
Fixing and painting this weekend. If able to receive the bumper by this weekend will do, if not just stick with the 87 I suppose.

That's all I can think of, not much but it's a good start I suppose considering all of it was done in the last 2 months.

Hopefully to come over the winter : suprasport full hardpipe kit with ceramic coated upperpipes, eibach springs/koni struts, boost controller and necessay gauges.

Tuition money going towards a better cause :P


EDIT : forgot to add... recently swapped "rebuilt" motor, that probably has more mileage on it than my chassis does. How cool is that?!!

[NashMan]

Originally posted by Enraged

that was miss under standing yes there is one there but it don't just turn off the oil it just doe snot let it flow as much when the car is cold and is fully open at full thottel most of every car wiht oil cooler has one so the oil does not get over cooled

teh nas oil pump are diffent then the turbo oil pump as well they push less psi then the turbo one i beleav as well so that why they do have relivfe vavle

i whoudl double cheak but i am certon of it

[Enraged]

well, according to many knowledgable supra owners, using the NA filter mount is fine provided you use a thermostat to control oil flow to the oil cooler.

Oh, and Matt, don't worry bro - that's exactly where I was until about 2 months ago - except completey stock with a spun rod... no suspension, no intake.

So I can't really laugh, you are ahead of where I was for about 2 years. Hope you don't decide to sell the supra, I'd say it's the perfect chance to swap in a turbo motor!

[Matt6003]

yeah we'll see, i dont wanna sell it, but i dont wanna shell out more money either, i still dont know whats gonna happen with it

[Paradox]

keep it! it should last awhile like that if you be nice to it.

definetaly keep in mind how much money you'll lose if you sell it without a working engine. its just not worth it :(

and i cheaked on the oil pump na's have lower oil persure since they don't have cooler

so up it all you want i not i going to keep it stock just like toyota wants it to be

plus my cank oil hole have bean drilled a tiny bit bigger so that more then eghough for me

these are the bad things of rasie persure

chance of washing you baring's

burn more oil

vavle cover's will leak faster then befor stock turbo oil control is not ment to have that much pusre so they will blew easy


there to many if's for me to try it plus lost of peoepl told me not to and not just on supra's

Try South Island Imports. I was just there on Friday, they have a complete turbo engine and tranny, minus the turbocharger itself and the driveshaft - both of which can be found locally.

[NashMan]

ooooo i found a cool ass toy for cheep now i can run even higher boost on 94 like mabye 20 psi of boost and nos to boot any one know what i am talkign about

I don't think there's ANY question... of course you should.
When you think about it, it's not really WORTH putting in another NA motor. Not if you plan on modding your car, you can't really get a whole lot of power out of the NA, in comparison to the turbo.
Might end up paying an extra 500 bucks for the turbo engine, but you gain over 30hp right there... considerably lower powerband and heaps more potential for the future.

EDIT : plus... you still only have to pay insurance for an N/A car ;)

[legally blonde]

Now I have not made a post in a while... but I would just like to say that Nashman's Supra is commin along great.... You will all see when he gets the pics done.

And Hun Im really excited for you and can't wait to .....

the cop was cool tho, kept saying how nice my car was and such. and i got the $196 fine instead of like a $400

it was pretty lame tho, i was stuck behind this truck with a "L" sticker on the back of it going through the single lane traffic at like 55k, so as soon as it went to double lane, i floored it... guess i got a little carried away, cause i was going almost 160

[Matt6003]

thats awful, but at the same time, good for you for only getting a 196$ ticket. i got one for doing 135 on there for 196$

naa dude i had one n/a cars are fun to drive

i whould love ot do up a na ass much as i chould one day

[Matt6003]

im not saying its not fun, but isnt my car the only stock one? so if the guy wants to go for a ride in a turbo'd MKIII, pretty much none of the ones you guys have are stock, assuming hes looking to buy one which is stock

[NashMan]

but make em have power is easy as pie

[Veovius]

oh well, I suppose I can settle for a ride in one that's not stock :p lol

N/A would be interesting too, I rode in Josh's, and got to drive it, even, but the clutch was really weird...

[islandsupra]

Mine is pretty much stock... all I have in an exhaust. But, probably runs like a stock one would because of my damn code 52.

Like I say... I'll be in Victoria this weekend as well :)

[Veovius]

ouch, what's a code 52?


oh and how long you gonna be down for? I doubt I'll be able to make timmys.....i'm working solid 8am-10pm friday then 8am on saturday :(

[islandsupra]

Ah, it's just knock sensor signal shorting out somewhere.

I'll be in Victoria probably saturday and sunday. I have to go paint my bumper probably on saturday during the day, then have haloween party to go to starting early evening.

Sunday I gotta go out to the ferries sometime just to go sell my old engine, then I think I am free for the rest of the day as far as I know. Probably will head back home early evening though.

But anyways, if you want - feel free to give me a call or whatever, and you can go for a rip. I'd be more than happy to convince you to buy a supra :)

[Enraged]

most of us are getting in the habit of parking for the winter... for me, gas is too much, wear and tear, etc. id rather keep it as a summer/weekend car and keep driving my sprint...

[Paradox]

well. lets hope my exhaust keeps holding now. haha, thanks for doing that ryan, i should have known it would be that simple.

i'd still like to figure out how to get another hanger on there, just for safetys sake.

[Paradox]

good god, i put 415k on the supra today, in ONE DAY

you can't that the sad part the echust is shaped kidna fucked up so it onte stay still it to close the rear sub frame


the only way you can fix it is what i did but use more of heavy duty clamp or just add in one more and it should be fine for a long time

ouch, how many is it at now?

[NashMan]

what comany makes brake rotors that is located in canada opntaio i think

i think they make the hawk pads and such

[Enraged]

i have powerslot rotors, they are pretty good. i wouldnt use drilled rotors for fear of cracking. i got my powerslots from lordco, im sure jas could give you a good price. if you want even better performance you can get rotors cryo-treated....

my CF lip was shipped today, hopefully ill get it by friday :)

[lil wicks]

does anyone know if a 7m-ge will fit in to a mk2

[Enraged]

the 5m and 7m are essentially the same.

lots of people do 7m-gte swaps into mk2s. since they are quite a bit lighter, they can be pretty fast with minor mods.

[NashMan]

all m blockoes have the same monting location so you cna put a m motor in any of the car that came wiht them

[lil wicks]

which drive shaft would i use

[islandsupra]

The guy that is buying my old motor off of me is putting it in a mk2. They have actually done it a few times I believe.

If you are serious, I can probably put you in contact with him.

probably have to get one custom made and balanced. look around on supraforums theres a few people that have done the swap, ryan did one aswell for some guy. so he should be able to help tell you what parts you'll need

[NashMan]

yae just take part mrk shaft and part mark to and put em togettter done deal

[Enraged]

polishing the exhaust manifold with a dremel is fun.... i cant believe the size of the lumps where the studs are. ive got a feww of them ground down partway, ill have to pick up some more grinding wheels....

[islandsupra]

who thinks I should be Mr T for Halloween?

I can't decide on anything, had a good one picked out and actually went and bought a whole costume but it doesn't fit!!

Gotta think up something on the fly now... thought of all the brown people I could, boiled it down to Mr T, Osama, or a Cuban druglord.

[NashMan]

cuban drug lord

why some one has doen it all ready and npotice nothing in power gains

i was talking to jonny who did this and i asked him what he did

he ported the waste gate hole ported the exhuast housieng and the manfold

the big part in this is the porting of the turbo it self cause see it t3 exhuast houseing restive waste gate hole is restive and that why i going to port mine even more

[NashMan]

well boys and girls the supra is at work now i cheak it out int eh morn and she what the sucker has i thik it might be modded as well but don't knwo for sure so i will cheak it out and stuff

[lil wicks]

nashman do i need a custom made drive shaft if i put a 7m ge in to mk2 supra

[Paradox]

if the only thing you're worried about is the driveshaft, you need to do more research on the swap.

[Enraged]

iver talked to a few people who noticed gains from polishing the exhaust mani... considering im almost done and havent spent a dime, its not going to hurt.

note: dont try to pick up a CF lip from puralator in a sprint....

[Paradox]

toby. i just saw your head pic. haha i missed it before, thats pretty sweet!

anything done to it?

[Paradox]

147k now.....

bought the car at less than 90k. figure im keeping about average mk3 mileage.

[NashMan]

hey toby i did not notice you bug thing int he back of your head


but did you ask the machine shop if they will warrty it cause whent to the shop they said they will only do it if the bug is made of aulim not steel it will cause the head to crack

[Enraged]

i tolf them to use an aluminum plug. ill check to make sure it is, if it isnt ill just take it out and replace it before i put the head on.

just got a resurface, new valve seals, jet cleaning (looks almost new compared to how dirty it was before), plug the EGR, check and replace and damaged exhaust studs (they did 1), polish the cams (they had minor surface rust from sitting outside).

bob or ryan, either of you have some time to help me get the head back on? also, what do i need to do to prep the block for the new gasket? just clean it off with some carb cleaner and make sure there no crap in the cylinders?

i can put the exhaust side back together no problem, its the intake/fuel side that im worried im going to mess something up....

[NashMan]

meh you will not mess up

it really easy you have book it will tell you every thign you ned to know and if you are stumbed help yae

ps toby did you ask them to mic your cams mine were dead and that one reson why i replaced them

if there not wiht in spec then you have to re do teh head crap again beinds taken the head off but kidna of pain when you can't shim it right

ask the if they were still in spec and all so ask them for the numbers they did

[Enraged]

k, ill look into it.

if a head needs rebuilding, i would probably just drive the car as is and build a second head anyways...

[NashMan]

well remmbewr his measher at lest 4 times like i do i hate reshiming after it is all done it's really a pain

[NashMan]

i think if i can get mrk 4 brake si might beable ot pull off wicked brakes system

i know how ot do it but the monting of the stock mrk 4 capliers is where i need ot know more of beofr i think of doing this

so i hav eot find out at work tommrow if i cna pul this off it be sweet as hel 13 inc rotor's up front and 12 in the rear and better capers more then one psiotn makes me happy

[Enraged]

you need to make caliper adapters, but they have to be pretty presice. if you end up getting some rotors, let me borrow them for 30 min so i can measure them and model them in CAD :)

[NashMan]

well i whoudl get kenny ot make the adators

but we wil see what i do i think i migth just give upt eh idea and go for sloted rotors but umm i not sure yet i still have to find the rpice of the mrk 4 ones form work tommrow

[NashMan]

[islandsupra]

Ryan, was that supposed to say polish??!

Not trying to be a dick or anything, just that usually I can make sense of your posts.

I'm only wondering if there's some sort of crap that I haven't heard of (and there's no way in hell that even looks like it could sound like polish :P)
