did i sell you that? i think i did. if thats the one off my car it is the stock toyota exhaust of a 89 turbo from california. that might be the problem now that i think about it. i'm pretty sure that is the only car that has a different length exhaust that a little longer. and yeah its hella...
its all about slowing down in the rain. it just not worth crashing your car to save a little time. its hard to see your car smashed up thats all i can say. especially if its nice.
i would say for all you that have stock hg blow at low miles its your fault. not to say the ebay ones are good, but the felpro and stock toyota hg are plenty for a n/a or even a mild turbo motor. i have a felpro hg on my car. works fine. hasn't blown in a couple thousand miles like what i hear...
so you guys with a good working stock bov is it silent or what? now i'm thinking mine is fucked up. but what i noticed when i got my first supra all i had was a intake and dp. before those modes i didn't hear anything. then the moment i install the intake i hear it. i'm thinking that the stock...
oh yeah thats rod knock!
drive on it like that for about a month then it will sound like you poured gravel into your oil pan. :rofl:
for me it was a good excuess to get another motor.
don't buy it man.
first off you need a good amount of cash after you bought the car for parts because there is going to be a ton of stuff that needs to be replaced. i can guarantee you that one. then the fact that you can't work on cars your going to need even more money because paying...
yeah. they skimpt on that gasket using just a regular carboard type. the toyota one has a layer of graphite on it like a hg or exhaust gasket to help it seal so it doesn't burn through. so for furture reference for anyone that gets a felpro hg set. don't use the egr cooler gasket. all the other...
well, i just got it on there :biglaugh:. it wasn't near as bad as taking it off because i new where to put my hands this time. the ground down rachet is the key. the other thing helped a little.
it was a felpro gasket. i put it on there when i did the hg. i bought a toyota one this time and...
the pouring rain in santa rosa ended with me fish tailing down the road at about 75-80mph. then once i lost it i was spinning around in the middle of 101 about 5 times. then smack into a gard rail. not fun. then i tore the fender off and drove 250 miles home with the worst boost leak ever. that...
i've got a v3 too. it kicks ass. it feels really wierd at first because its easy to get used to the stock slow throw shifter. once you get used to the v3 and how much closer the throws are you'll love it. somehow its not really low to. practically same height as stock. i hate those ricer ones...
so there was a break in the storm today for a little bit and i decided i would give it a shot. it definitely wasn't fun, but wasn't as bad as i thought it would be. i ground down one of my 10mm 1/4 drive. that plus the snap in socket it made things way easier. also the intake side valve cover...
jdub i meant it will be easier to just pull the motor if i can use a lift. it shouldn't take me more than 4 hours to pull it then reinstall it. also i can clean things up a little while its out. then again if he is swamped i will have to do it on the car at my house. fate will decide this one i...
so to add to my problem its raining over here like a mofo. i don't really feel like doing any work outside and the forecast doesn't look like its going to change. but there is a plus. my buddy just moved into his new shop. if i'm lucky i can do it there with a lift. then it will be hella easy...
so my gasket on my egr cooler blew today out of nowhere. i just got done looking at it and it looks like it's going to be a bitch to change. so i'm considering pulling the motor to change it. for those that have done it on the car are they any tips or is it just hell. :icon_evil
rennat.
i have done all four common forms of welding oxy/act., mig, arc, and tig. tig is by far the most difficult. its somewhat like oxy/act. how you have to create a puddle of molten metal without burning through the piece then slowly add a drop. repeating until you have a full bead. also...
