    anyone using a Holset HX-35 from a 94-02 Dodge Ram Diesel?

    yeah... ive never really tried to go find a diesel turbo unless it was modified for gas engines like GReddy does. Jon at MDC spoke positively of those turbos and they get a bad wrap being from diesels but he says they are great street turbos for the 7M. im just wanting to know what kind of...

    spec multidisk clutch

    well, what if i just want a twin disc... how much TQ will a single disc with a clutch surface area for a 7M flywheel hold? Andy from SBC told me he could make a pressure plate thats so stiff that one would be unable to press the clutch pedal The stiffest pressure plate i bought from...

    Lotus-born suspension on the MKIII Supra?

    I have to add my 2cents, i cant resist: For the record, the 1986 toyota supra had a suspension 100% designed and engineered by Lotus. the supra carried this suspension design and specs all thru development. initial trials proved the lotus-engineered suspension to be all that and a bag of...

    best suspension combos

    what numbers? these numbers? i really need to get the front of my car down... but i dont have money to spend on a new suspension. is there a rough calculation that takes into account total length of the coil spring winding (or usable length) vs. rough unsprung weight to determine how much...

    Custom accordian hose I made (pics)

    VERY Nice welds!!!! you did some great work. i also like the second piece w/ pie cuts. what is the ID of your first piece? the only thing i cant get on-board with is the wall thickness due to the cast-icity of the elbows you use. other than that, man its nice! however, i vote for this...

    Using an A1000 pump w/o sumping, heres my idea...

    i like the additional input. Nate has a good point. ive always seen documentation stating A1000's will run out at 800hp on a force induction application, so 700rwhp is right on par with everything ive seen. also, on a force induction application, dynamic fuel pressures will be FAR greater...

    Having issues pulling r154

    crap, i wish i had known there was a better lower-shifter bushing... the green one i got from toyota is entirely too soft for it to seem like its going to last more than 10k miles. that Marlin one looks like delrin or teflon or something... or nylon even. i bet that thing would last a LONG time.

    ct-26 exhaust- what is the A/R?

    the idea of it being a ratio dictates that the solution to the equation would be the Same no matter where you took the 2 measurements, as long as they were from the same section of the housing. i figured the inlet would be the same result as if i had measured further in. the reduction of...

    Oil filter relocation kit

    i have the summit, its everything i needed to do it... but i had to supply my own bolts and holes to mount the filter thingy. using the drain plug for the oil temp sender isnt that bad... thats how subaru's are done from the factory.

    Using an A1000 pump w/o sumping, heres my idea...

    as i said before, the straw wouldnt be any more prone to becoming starved than the stock fuel pump... which is virtually never. a syphon flow will not break either, even if the highest point goes above the level of the fluid its sucking from. i could see it losing the suction if the pump...

    some sort of fitting on the frame rail? undercar? wtf?!

    that offends me! how dare you ask! actually, yess, its off a graphite colored 89 i used to have. the metal skeleton that was originally on my car was bent, and in turn, warped the plastic nose piece too. so i just switched the whole thing. im not worried about the mismatch... i kinda like the...

    How do you hold 1500+hp on your bottom end? PICS

    main girdle FTW!!! billet mains is a similar technique on the JZ's. all ive ever heard of for boning up the jz bottom end is the billet main caps. never heard of a girdle for those yet. im not sure they have ever needed them. greece is the other side of the world right?
