    Paint detail help

    How do you remove that wax? Just soap and water? Because after everything's done I'm clearcoating it. The paint I have is flat. I'm also using an oven to dry the paint so I don't want to use something that could mess up the cover.

    Paint detail help

    I'm using the NA valve covers for aesthetics, but as expected the old paint on those was badly worn out already. I already removed all the old paint and prepped it as best as I could. But that's not the question. I'm wondering how the hell I can go about covering the parts where it says...

    Stock plenum to FFIM question

    I already ran the car without those vacuum lines connected to it before. One of the nipples was broken. Turned just fine even at idle.

    Stock plenum to FFIM question

    My plenum is over at the machine shop getting finished. Still, I was wondering what to do since the stock vacuum fitting that sits in front of the ISC/AIC had to get cut and welded shut. To give details, I eliminated the EGR and threw away that little "spider" tube that directed vacuum all...

    Bilsteins from Autozone

    Totally worth it. Lifetime warranty. Just scan the receipt and send a copy to your e-mail(s). I'm pretty sure these shocks aren't OMGWTFBBQKITTEN-race-class stuff, but for everyday street use and some track time, I'm sure they're great. Pay $400 + tax once in the car's life for a brand name...

    Bilsteins from Autozone

    I gave them the right number both times. The first time, some dyslexic kid got the wrong kit over at Morse and sent it over. Took Autozone an hour and a half to figure out I was right in that the kit HAS to bring the caliper brackets after talking to some manager over at Morse or something...

    Bilsteins from Autozone

    We get lifetime warranty from the Zone though. It's also just a 5 minute drive for me, plus the special order ordeal but at least *I* don't have to deal with the hassle :evil2: So that's one point for the Zone. Anyone else got some input? Wonder if jetjock or whoever the suspension guy...

    Bilsteins from Autozone

    So while dealing with the huge mess they have with my PBR Cobra calipers at Autozone, I heard them mention Bilstein many times. Apparently, they work with Bilstein and order directly from them, and led me to find THESE. If anyone else has any information on these, it would be greatly...

    Heat proof stickers

    I don't expect a 50 cent thing, but neither do I expect a $50 ordeal, get what I'm saying? I'll be sure to ask around in a local forum and the local shops for such a place in the island then.

    Heat proof stickers

    I've recently become interested in the idea of placing a few stickers under the hood. Now, I know what some of you are thinking. "You could just ask a paint shop to paint designs there." "Stickers are so Honda-ish." To be blunt, for now, I just wanted ONE single decal and I refuse to...

    7MGE Valve covers without FFIM

    oooh that looks really nice. Funny thing though, I got a deal with turning the stock plenum to a front facing one. Now I just need to take the custom spark plug cables to get cut to proper lengths..... they cut them all the same length :nono:

    Tookwik's 7M-GTE COP ignition mod w/ stock electronics...pics and writeup

    By the way, no one ever mentioned it. Will the stock NGK BCPR6ES spark plugs work just fine? I see people running autolites and another set of the NGK's, but not these.

    Reupholstering seats

    Don't like the MK3 logo. I honestly don't. And I just remembered. I'm getting a new carpet since I tossed the old one years ago. Thing is the new one is burgandy, and I want it black. Anyone know of any good dyes that won't fade out after being stepped on just a few times? I am getting...

    Reupholstering seats

    Over a year ago I purchased a 1978 Celica and owned it for a few months. Parted with it since I couldn't keep 2 project cars, but I kept the front seats. For those of you who don't know, they're ALMOST full replicas of our stock MK3 seats, with a few minor differences. 1) BOTH seats have...

    7MGE Valve covers without FFIM

    The Cressida throttle link. Sourcing a JDM TB is pretty hard. If you're keeping the EGR then I'm sure you'll need the pcv tube as well. Also, that link doesn't work for me. All it says is "IE4".

    7MGE Valve covers without FFIM

    I can finally sit in peace in front of the pc to do some googling. Here are the first few, and decent, pictures I found. Posting them here for future reference and anyone else that may want/need these. Jeff's right, it has a 7MGE with the GTE intake manifold. In the last picture, if you have...
