    He is grinding gears and he can get into gear when the car isn't running....this alone means it's not a trans problem... I had a similar issue with my stock Toyota clutch...it had rubber bushings instead of springs...one of the rubbers broke (and had babies) and wedged itself between the pp...

    Ceramic Coating 7M Crank

    Then your best bet is nitride....it changes the metal itself a few .001"'s deep! Nitride won't flake or chip...it will increase the Rockwell hardness of the metal a great deal and will hold an awesome finish! Coatings are asking for trouble and you won't see a full second from any of...

    Fuel Injector/Plenum Removal DIY?

    I've noticed that alot of times the injectors don't want to come out of the fuel rail very easy....I've had to wrestle them out of 3 rails...just expect this and don't think something is wrong if they don't want to come out...just twist and pull harder!

    What would you do? Have a look inside : )

    If he pumped that much fuel into the cylinders then it would have hydrolocked and probably bend a connecting rod or put a flat spot in the bearings! I call bullshit in that story!!!

    Good place to find replacement turbo lines?

    What weight oil are you using hot engine readings are the ones that matter what's your best guess at idle psi what psi at 3000rpm So far if those pressures are with a hot engine with proper oil then Jesus god man you oil pressure is fantastic!

    650rpm at idle is about perfect..650-700 is normal (tsrm tells you this!!)...what's your oil pressure? I don't want too know oil pressure at speed I want rpm! Oil pressure is rpm dependent not speed! I'm not talking down on you...I'm trying to point out how bad you asked a question and...

    Good place to find replacement turbo lines?

    The leak would have to be so bad that it would pump out all your oil in seconds too effect oil pressure! By low oil pressure what's your idle pressure and 3000rpm pressure? You also don't need a new hardpipe from the turbo too block just the gaskets! I can't help but notice the lack of...
