    Oil pressure, how much is too much?

    Looks like this, but mine is AN10... (And to make it worth the time, you have to machine your pump, so it's really not an easy project, just use the 18mm BSP 90 angle as noted, AN8 line and fittings and your good to go.) Remember to port your pump so the exit to the AN/BSP fitting has no...

    Canton Racing Oil Pan

    Stock pickup is fine if you bend the pipe down closer to the pan floor. (Almost touching is fine due to the screen that hangs down below the pickup tube...) I'd like to have a custom pickup, but that is going to cost you some money, and it's going to slow down the development of this pan...

    Where do you buy parts online?

    Anywhere but from Flatlander. Phil is an asshole, and who cares if they have decient prices if the guy running the show is an asshole? (Besides, everyone else will match their prices if you show them the prices, so you do not need to buy from Flatlander at all.)

    greddy manifold

    I wonder how much more heat that pumps into the intake pipe crossing over that location as well? Themal coat, or wrap that for sure to minimize the amount of heat being lost into your engine bay. Interesting for sure.

    My targa brace

    That is pretty dang nice. I like your idea of the "supra" logo in the middle, but it's also nice and clean the way it is now. Make it from chromemoly tube, or aluminum, and you'd have a winner for sure. This same fabricator needs to build us a great front upper brace... (Hint hint) There is...

    Oil pressure, how much is too much?

    I belive that IJ tested a pan off the engine, and it took 8 or 9 quarts of oil in it before the oil would be at the level of the spinning crank and rods. (Where you start to get serious windage losses, and it could whip up the oil. Foaming oil is not good as it's a terrible lubricant in a...

    Aluminum shroud w/ pics

    Are you sure it is not more like a fan shroud works best when the tolerance between the fan blade tip and the shroud is as close as possible...? Also you want to have some flat surface v/s just a cut open hole.... So you need a flat hoop of metal welded/attached to the hole cutouts extending...

    Oil pressure, how much is too much?

    Just a few things to consider. The filter is between the pump and the main galley pressure sensor on the stock engine, so if the filter is limiting flow, it would not show up as a pressure increase, but a pressure decrease.... Part of the higher pressure is the close tolerance of the...

    3 Car Pileup with my car in the middle *PICS*

    If the other guy has insurance, I'm sure you've already started a claim with his company right? Go see a Dr. at the ER and ask for them to check you out for fx. (Your going to have a sore back and neck I'm sure.) Your Supra is likely a total loss. The rear body has been crushed slightly...

    another attempt at 600rwhp

    I know this feeling. I thought I was happy with a stock CT26 and larger elbow/DP and exhaust... Then I thought I was happy with 11psi. Then a shimmed waste gate and 14psi. Then I stepped up to a bolt on T4 60-1 trim and 420rwhp at 18psi... (With fuel mods etc.) Then I pushed that turbo...

    Help! Heatsoaking starter!!!

    I'm with the replace the wires, or clean up the contacts, and it sounds like your starter has given up the battle. (Or at least the carbon contacts on the motor are worn out, which is why the hammer and pipe works... You jar the carbon dust off and get a contact again...) I'd imagine that...

    Holy hyjack Batman! What's the answer to her question? (Besides the in or out thingy.. which BTW, 99% of people figure out using it eh? No owners manual required....) :) LOL

    car keeps overheating

    Do the following, in order. (There are two parts to this.) 1) Check your fan clutch. (If the engine is hot, the fan should be hard to turn when the engine is off. If it freewheels easy, and you can spin it when hot, you need a new fan clutch. They are about 62.00 from NAPA.) 2) Is there...

    Drifters Unite!

    Street drifting is totally nuts. The video's of it I've seen from Japan are nuts, and the fact that kids here want to go out in the middle of the day and try it in traffic is even more insane. I don't really care if you wipe out your own car, but I have to tell you that if your sorry ass runs...

    Anyone Buy This Turbo Manifold?

    If that's just the standard ebay tubular manifold from XSPower, then it's a great deal as long as you don't pay more than about 130.00 for it.

    MK4 rear brakes installed!

    I actually think the stock bias is too forward in that the front brakes would lock up and ABS activate long before the rear.

    1/2 way done with my build and looking for some more insight

    Radious slot? Time per second box? Hello? I'm thinking your running low on blinker fluid, and your muffler bearings are worn out man.... Valve is on my Canton Accusump. It holds a few quarts of oil under pressure that is then forced into the engine if the oil pressure drops below a set point...
