    New Torsen for the MK3?

    Not to take anything away from this or say anything bad about Gordon but with a little ingenuity the differentials can be found for much less than he ask's for them. Just an FYI. TEKEDEKUS - WIth 500 whp you may simply be out of luck when it comes to having an easy time preventing wheel spin...

    WI Supra owners.

    Sam, Your original quote was quite misleading since, as Supracentral said, the only things which need to be done differently for a MHG is the head and block deck surfaces must be FLAT and have a smooth/low RA finish. All the other stuff you listed (and you said was a "huge process") remains...

    New Torsen for the MK3?

    Yep, the diff has worked great and is one of the best upgrades I have made on my car in terms of fun and consistency in a performance driving setting which involves turns.

    Cam Journals Worn Outta Spec. Looking for a little bit of advice.

    I called Polk and there pricing is good, Baril is F'ing rediculous price wise. I did not ask for what you are looking for specifically as I am not really 100% sure of your plan but you should give them a call regarding it. For the machine work I am doing they were quite good on the price.

    Also, You may want to check with this machine shop in GB http://www.polkdiesel.com/ My grandpa owns a semi repair shop and they do top notch work on the Big rigs among other things and should easily have a machine large/long enough for our head. I am calling them tomorrow with prices as I may...

    Bad Head Gasket?

    Well, the Engine is out and the pistons are pulled. Pics can be seen here http://s327.photobucket.com/albums/k463/supradjza80/Supra%20Engine%20Build/ I am actually thinking it was not the rings that caused this, they all look to be perfect and show none of the wear I would expect for this type...

    Where to go After BHG

    Ian, how did you know which head was newer/older in the pictures that Sam provided. Was it just off Casting number? Reason I ask is my 92's head has the casting number 8, and I have been TOLD its the original head but cannot really verify that. I do know my car has the correct, 90-92 block...

    Bad Head Gasket?

    No, I do not have any way to log AIT's. The setup on the intake side is an Apexi intake to a stock CT26 @ 15 psi, and hard pipes to the stock IC. Obviously the cooling fan does get hot air on the air filter when sitting still but I didn't think this had much effect at speed. IJ, Just because...

    Bad Head Gasket?

    hmm, my wideband has never shown anything above 11 under boost, and based on the fact that at least all cylinders are beginning similar wear marks it looks like they would all be suffering similar fates. Well I will pull ii out and see what we have. Based on the head gasket firing rings having...
