    Feeling of 4.30s vs 3.73s

    doubt it was that low. r154 + 3.9 = 2950 rpm @ 70 mph. @ 80 = 3400 rpm. on 4.3 you are looking at closer to 4k.

    why not? $16000/ 50.00/hr (extreme low balling) = 320 man hours or 8 weeks worth of work. In the grand scheme of things, not alot. I keep telling the lot of you that time IS money. Those 50/hr is no where what any shop charges back. Usually the price is $75/hr which brings the break down to...

    any toyota key works

    yep! the old tumblers are so worn or get stuck that any toyota key works. A little bit of cleaning fixes that issue up nicely. If not. New tumbler!

    nah man. It does not work that way. Especially when the success of the company rides on your work. Anyone that has started a company with their own money will tell you that, you try to cut deals, give lee way just to land the business. It is hard when you are a startup.

    7mgte rebuid kit from suprastore.. Reviews

    again time is money. What I get paid an hour. Yeah. I would go broke in a heart beat if I were to bill myself at that rate. I rather get paid for my time at work then do sourcing of parts. A bit of a premium but not that bad.

    funny they got radio coverage. that reminds me of "the claw thief" incident! edit: btw feel sorry for Japworks. They are new and tried to appease the customer and now since it was a sole propriatorship, they (the owners) are out 16k of thier money which is an awful situation to be in...

    New nissan GTR... pics and info

    well lets think of this logically. #2 car company in the WORLD ready to take the #1 spot with the drab/boring line up they have. So WHY exactly would they want to bring in another "sports" car when there plain ole corollas, camary's, avalons and the lexus lines have taken them to the...

    Rear sub-frame and diff questions.

    weakest link will be the first to go. at that power level. Smoke show for the tires. Change them to slicks. Thrust washer in the R154 is next. after that, the driveshaft and one that is addressed. Perhaps then, will the diff give the ghost up. On street tires. All smoke.

    power steering

    powering stearing?? For real? Repeat after me.... POWER STEERING I think you are confused though. Power steering does not need alignment. It needs bleeding if it was emptied. So care to clarify what you mean?

    Rear sub-frame and diff questions.

    7mgte rebuid kit from suprastore.. Reviews

    Eagle rods, CP pistons, clevite bearings.... as long as the kit is that, a kit (meaning the bearings are for the rods, piston rings etc all drop in on the kit itself), than that takes the work out of sourcing all that by yourself. Price is reasonable since they did the work. Keep in mind...

    550s leaning out, need help!

    correct...... but only in a specific window of OEM operations on an OEM motor. With that said, how does the fuel pump circuitry do the switching? Do it actually switch or bypass? yes there is a difference. Switching will causes a momentary loss of power to the fuel pump. Bypassing will...
