I've got a set of rears, at least one of which is popped. I'd like to have them fixed before the summer rolls around.

Reading isn't your strong suit, I'm guessing?

Common issue with the HKS unit.

Haven't seen these Penske units... where can they be had? What kind of price are they?

Not that common at all... first off, it's a timing belt, and it's supposed to be dry. So if there is oil in there, it's coming from another seal.... cams, oil pump drive shaft, front main are all possibilities.

The hole isn't big enough to stop you from making boost. Plugging it will, however, drastically improve your spool times.

Getting a set from a part out here should be pretty easy. Any of the internet friendly Toyota dealers should give you the price I mentioned... I use Vancouver Toyota in Washington State, personally. There's also Jay Marks in Texas and... Elmhurst on the east coast somewhere IIRC.

Depending on the shape of your chassis, you could theoretically just ground in the back, and run the wires that used to be in the front to the chassis as well. This uses the chassis itself as the ground. However, in a car that's seen a lot of use, corrosion, dirt, etc, can reduce the...

So... how close was your initial costs estimate? Did you leave anything out? :)

They are actually $171 from the dealer...

I'll be there as usual.

I did *exactly* that with my 7M car. Built a second engine with forged pistons, had it sitting on a stand for when I popped the one in the car - which had a MHG and ARP bolts, but the pistons were still OEM. Pushed the power up, drove it for a couple weeks, pushed it up again, drove it, etc...

Jordan, the MAFT pro does a slightly better job of part throttle than the older piggybacks, but bottom line, it still suffers the same challenges. For 500whp, I'd be upgrading to a standalone or forged pistons... or more likely both.

Did you space the lights out from the stock location at all?

So... how much mashing about was required in the end?

I've done temp monitoring in traffic... temps spike when you're sitting at idle, stopped, but drop again in literally seconds as soon as you give the engine throttle.

What's happening down there? Hurricane or some such? I thought it was still early for big storm season...

Checking for codes can be done with a paperclip and some careful counting of the CEL flashes, and might shed some important light on the situation.

Much more exiting than automobiles. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNZCZsHJIR8&ob=av3e
