    Jay's Rebuild 7MGE to 7MGTE Conversion

    make sure someone who knows how to gap your piston rings (your mechanic, not you :icon_razz ) does it, unless you reall can. Just tell him to add it on while you have him mount the pistons. It didn't cost me much for my machinist to ring mine. eric

    No Flip-up Headlight Conversion

    CT, are you saying an nsx has poor night time lights? I figured the factory lights given to a $100k+ car were adequate at night, but what do I know. eric

    Anyone pulled off a Digi Dash?

    Only problem with the idea is the gluster is shaped correctly for one way only. The steering column hump is to one side for the correct seating position ( rhd or lhd), the vents are also arranged correctly for one side only, and the dash flows with it, so if you put a rhd cluster in a lhd you're...

    If yo ucan follow directions yo ucan work on a mk3. All the steps for pretty much any job are either on this site, supraforums, or the online tsrm. The tsrm is golden since it trully is step-by-step simplicity at it's finest. eric

    what would be better?

    I second thevan with love bed in the back. i would also not hesitate to put those led ropes around the bottom and top edges of the interior, going around the ceiling and the floor, also have mirrored ceiling and rotating coloured ball in the corner for added wickedness. Vans are such fun things...

    Where Can I Get Adjustable Rr Wing Mounts???

    I was just hinking, if you were to take the wing off completely would you not gain more aerodynamics and get better fuel mileage and all the jazz he wanted in the first place? Add a carbon rear under-diffuser like the S2 kit has and you're golden. eric

    DAMN IT MAN! A cracked rotor!

    Horsepowerfreaks carries several big brake kits for our cars. Hit them up, but be ready to take a hit from your bank, as front is around $1500-$2000 and rears aren't far behind. eric

    HELP! - Transmission bolts nightmare

    Excuse me, but I talk to toyota about lots of parts, and when I order bolts from them all they know is what their computer tells them. I asked for specs they said they have no idea. All they know is where the bolt goes and the number, since they have the online tsrm also. I checked his screen...

    Where Can I Get Adjustable Rr Wing Mounts???

    ^^^What he said If yo ucould actually make a belly pan for the car, possibly going from right under the front bumper and ending around the rear dif with maybe a rear diffuser, you could gain some serious aerodynamics. Maybe have some louvers tho in the pan facing the rear so any air that wants...

    Ahhhh stupid problems...

    Can you see the place where it's leaking? Maybe lift the back up so the gas doesn't come out anymore and use some jbweld on it, make sure the tank is pretty empty tho so when you lift it there's little enought to not cause you problems. eric

    130+ Mph

    After the first 20 secs it was a pretty crappy vid. The camera guy just kept panning around showing parts of the engine. I have a garage full of parts too, I'll pan a camera around a bit and post it, then show a 5 second clip of burnouts at the end to seal the deal. :icon_razz eric
