and if it is the valve, pour water into that combustion chamber and see if it leaks out through the port. but if its just one or two valves thats cheap and easy to do...

for the supra... check timing, check for leaks vacuum and boost, replace spark plugs, check the wires to see if they ohm out properly, check out the air filter, replace or clean, wait... and were you driving through tracy the other night ago? i think you were at a light, and i was in a red...

only other gasket i bought was my HKS MHG... and i just cut the opening on the TB gasket they send with it... but the funny part is that your going to have a ton of leftover stuff because they put the n/a and turbo gaskets all in one box... i even had TWO y-pipe gaskets that i just threw into my...

if you think strut bars make the can handle good, throw on a nice suspension setup, or even just a set of nice struts and springs, you'll be wayyyy happier. but good starting point. sounds like a good fun supra. its always nice to see CA members on here.

i actually got the FULL gasket set... so im not going to say anything other than partsdinosaur, and the man who runs it, is a great company and has wonderful customer support. he wont do you wrong.. i once got the wrong bearings from him, he overnighted the right ones to me and paid for the...

use this part number, 975-12, the end number is how many you want... they sell it in certain sets, i think 8, 12, and 16...

OK, i didnt read through everything cause im in a hurry BUT.. i ordered that set, everything was good, EXCEPT the throttle body gasket... which i halfway expected, it even came with the fuel injector o-rings and seals. its a good kit, and nothing leaks on me, just be aware and clean when your...

i'll let you know what they look like after a 1500miles... im pulling my head, so i'll take pics to show what that little piece looks like. i was worried when i got them, but didnt see that big of an issue because probe wouldnt make it that way if it was going to just fail.

AND i was reading in a book at work, about engine building, that you should also gap your rings with the torque plate installed... which actually makes perfect sense since then it will be the same when you torque the head down... never thought about it on my engine though....

you mean NPT? and the bottom being metirc makes sense because it is a banjo bolt...

yeah your burns exhaust is really nice. his exhaust is pretty nice too, i like seeing custom exhaust vs. the bolt on ones... and im going to do a dual 3'', just need to order my downpipe and then i'll start fabbing it up. not be nearly as nice as that, but it will still be the same concept.

turbo drifter stated it cost $1000... most people cringe at that high of a number... but if that was the cost for the downpipe, and full exhaust, its actually a pretty damn good deal considering its materials, pieces, and the amount of welding involved.

why not just call aaron tomorrow? if he sells the "kit" he has to know whats in the kit.

you could just plug them... as there not needed unless the turbo is coolant fed.

you ceramic coat the top of the piston... not the sides, so in that aspect the bore size would stay the same. now a moly coating on the sides is a different story... but yes, you can do all of that, pretty intense, but it can be done.

grim: its a youtube video... and i want to know more about that exhaust!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1pYXUOoLFo&feature=channel_page tell me!!!

did you do this test with the throttle 100% opened? because that will affect the results... but if it was a BHG, i would think your compression would be much lower on the cylinder(s) that are blown... do a leak down test to see if 4 and 5 are really leaking into each other. from the...
