    Which way does the crankshaft rotate?

    lol at you doward... that is all :) btw, only a few engines here in domestic passenger cars rotate CCW... namely hondas. the only hondas that rotate CW are the H and F series, iirc. possibly the new R and K series too.

    Throttle cable for FFIM

    engine torque strut/brace for 89+ mounts...

    so i want to make one. you know how the pre89 cars have the shock absorber mounted between the driver side engine mount and the subframe? well i kind of decided (after having chronic starting issues w/ my car) that these liquid mounts need extra stabilization. they are just FAR too...

    Should I save a ’92?

    you sure? thats supposed to be a Turbo-R lip... ive never seen a GA70 or even a LImited jza70 with that lip. aside from that, it appears to be a hardtop from the low resolution pictures that guy sent you... if it IS, you ought to buy the car. itd be the rarest of the rare, short of the gay...

    New bodykit?

    i like the sides, ALOT. the only thing i have to complain about the sides are the raised ridges at the Top... they would do better to have only the ridge at the bottom. i Love how the sides follow the contouring of the fender flares and recessed portions of the center of the body. the front...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    ok, so all that said; anyone running MKIV tt's on the Front? i just bolted on a set of rears that came off my friends car. they have 315's on them. Drag radials on the front feel kinda weird. also, the steering takes more effort than it did w/ 245's and 255's. the weird thing is, with my idle...

    Testing the O2 sensor off the car.

    im less than hopefull, but: will these instructions apply to wide band sensors too? or are the variances too far different? From JJ: No, sorry. A WB is a different animal and can only be checked in it's entirety by using calibration gas with varying concentrations of O2.

    Stock paint, lead based?

    im sure its not. japanese auto mfr's started using water-based paint back then... the domestics didnt start experimenting with such "new age" technology till the 90's. i would expect lead-based paint to have been phased out some time Before the 80's.

    600hp mkiii vs 07 zo6

    either an SP61GT or SP63. a 61 could hit it on race gas and 25ish psi with a 0.68 hot side. a 63mm is alot more likely and a 67 can do it for sure with just a pump-race mix and 23-24psi. its definilty 10's too. my friend is running an SP67 on his car. he runs 10.50's at 128 in his MKIV, BL...
