    W & R Series transmission upgrade?

    My bad. But still, its not like the r154 is nearly as crappy as the WRX transmission. STI is a different story. I just don't see the need for $6k gears in a car with a good transmission.

    W & R Series transmission upgrade?

    Subaru's and DSMs have Front Wheel Drive type transmissions so they are inherently weaker than the rwd transmissions due to the space limitations. I have seen pictures of Subaru's gears that have been completely stripped. I have never seen a picture like that of the R154. You could get a mkIV...

    Anyone build a stock looking sideskirt

    I agree about the Bomex, they are conservative but still more aggressive tan stock. In fact, the entire Bomex kit is very nice and not flashy at all.

    The lsd thread

    KAAZ makes great LSDs. They are pricey though. They are noisy because they are aggressive. They can flip the clutch plates over to allow more slipping but then they are only slightly more aggressive than stock and what is the point of that? Are you going to be road racing or drifting on this...

    Can anyone tell me where to find JDM rain guards?

    Keep checking ebay and pay the JDM markup that its going to cost you if you really want them.

    crank pulley differences through the years

    I have a different pulley from different years. one has a _|-|_|-|_ pattern and the other doesn't. Otherwise, they seem the same.

    Where can I get this air filter?

    That part is discontinued though you can make something similar with parts from Home Depot.

    Fuel question?

    http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291420/Parts/23807.aspx It looks like the Supras all use the same rail while the Cressida has a different one. So, as long as it came off of a supra you are good to go.

    What should I do with my stock BOV?

    You can tap the 3000 pipe and run a short bolt in there with some teflon tape. Run a hose from the BOV outlet to the intake pipe to recirculate the bypassed air.

    Where to buy rebuilt AFM electronics?

    Well, i was under the impression that the AFM measures air velocity and since the ls400 ecu knows the diameter of the intake air than it can compute how much air is passed through based on calculations based on the known diameter and velocity. This is why when you increase the MKIII AFM...

    Where to buy rebuilt AFM electronics?

    A new one if $570.00 so getting that is not really an option. I have heard that the LS400 AFM electronics are the same as ours so that opens up other options of getting new electronics from junkyards. Can anyone confirm this?

    Help Me Plan a GOOD GTE Rebuild on a Budget!

    you could always get new OEM rod bolts and use those. They are cheaper than ARP is you are on a budget and they are fairly cheap to have installed by a machine shop. New toyota bolts should be fine for most people (as in, not high horsepower).

    WTF?? *NWS*

    I had a spider bite similar to that but it didn't have a huge gash from trying to pop it or whatever. It took 2 weeks until the skin got too thin and it opened, tons of puss and white blood poured out, I had to put my arm under the faucet. It healed up fairly well and months later I can't...
