    Installing ARP studs without removing head?

    This. In order to install ARP studs, you need the head off, so you can clean the holes with a bottoming tap before installation. Otherwise, they won't thread in far enough, and you'll get incorrect torque readings. Factory head bolts should be torqued to 72 foot pounds. Using the order from...

    Digi dash connectors

    Yes, Stretch in Canada and Knight Rider in Germany have both had it working at one time or another IIRC.

    They have been converted to LHD. Twice that I know of.

    Don't make me look this stuff up... engine? Mods? Corrected HP / Torque numbers? Post that up, you lazy bum!

    Digi dash connectors

    IIRC, the digidash connectors are used elsewhere in the car as well.

    Good catch. I was half way through adding the guy when I realized his numbers were crank HP instead of wheel HP.

    Need help deciding which fuel pump..

    The new(ish) Aeromotive Stealth pump is a great unit as well, rated at 340 over the walbro 255 IIRC, cheap, quieter than the walbro, and aeromotive reliability.

    Added. Added Added. Added. Dude. That dyno sheet doesn't say 497rwhp, it says 408rwhp. That's not enough to get on the list. Updated! Congrats, and welcome to the top of the 1J list. Errr... for which car again? Not a lot of people are on the list multiple times. Added. That torque number...

    Just squeaked in under the limit. Not yet. As of right now, you're #35 or thereabouts, you need to make it into the top 30 with a 7M to qualify.

    So, I've been fighting with the fuel pump setup for quite some time, and after trying a bunch of options, and failing to fit options in the available space (no, you can NOT put dual Denso Mk4 pumps in through the stock hole) I've just ordered up the parts to replace the entire system with dual...

    For those of you with a 4" turbo inlet: what filter do you use?

    Same here, looks like a great setup! But no four inch love... so I'll buy an AEM and get one of their fancy pre-filter covers.

    For those of you with a 4" turbo inlet: what filter do you use?

    Correction: Apexi / AEM are the best available, but the Apexi doesn't come in a large enough size that I've found.

    For those of you with a 4" turbo inlet: what filter do you use?

    What's the length on that? If it'll fit in my engine bay, I'd likely take it off your hands. :) The K&N is not a good filter. It gives you great airflow, sure, however, it doesn't actually filter anything smaller than pea gravel. It'll work fine in ocean climates, or any place with high...

    Digi dash connectors

    When I needed these, I got them from Dr Tweak. Maybe he can't get them anymore?

    Heel Toe??

    It's not really helpful on the street... it allows you to do things like rev match downshifts while braking.

    Dash symbol curiosity and Power window question

    As for the window motor, if that were the cause, nothing would make it go up. If it still works with one switch, the motor must be fine.

    #2 Rod Bearing Failure

    Stop and think about it... if it's not the bearings, what else could be the problem? How does oil get to the bearing? Have you checked the clearance with plastigauge?
