    Coolant question

    Not getting hot air sometimes usually means that there isn't any coolant getting to your core. But it may seem as there's air in your system which restricts and alters the flow of coolant. After all, air isn't great at transferring heat.

    what is the best setting for timing:

    I set my CPS in the middle of the adjustment groove. So you can Retard/Advance the timing when it needs adjusting.

    7MGTE What the hell is happening?!?!

    Do a Vacuum test, that will work marvels. Alot of over oversee how helpful a Vacuum test will work. I had the same code, and i just had a loose coupling, you have to remember that crack may be small but under pressure it will slightly increase. But yes, an Abnormal Air leak will make it seem...

    7MGTE What the hell is happening?!?!

    @Barks He's getting a code for Turbo Pressure, usually related to a leak somewhere in the intake after the AFM.

    HELP!! Good Battery, No Start !!

    Just because the battery reads 12.75v doesn't always mean it's good. And that still have surface charge on it. Check all the cells, if you have a refractometer then go ahead and check specific gravity on each cell, they should all be around 1,26 i believe. But tbo, it sounds like something other...

    won't start even with brand new battery..

    Sounds like a Voltage Spike through your system. If you have a Fusible link or Fuse, check either. Not sure which one applies to you. I'd say get in there and check to resistance with a Multimeter if you have the link.

    Was running fine, Crank But no Fire.

    Yes, i was very excited, you did a good deed. haha. I understand the cars old, alot of people seem to overlook that. I just can't seem to figure how to keep them from losing contact or what not. A cleaner and some protector? I would like to just re wire the clip but that seems challenging...

    I haven't been able to touch it today, family just got back from a month long trip so im spending time with them right now. But i can't seem to put my finger on what would cause me to smell raw fuel while driving on the freeway and something that seems like "Bogging/Misfire" and cleared and now...

    Import>Rebuild?

    Definately a rebuild of what you currently have. You have no idea what the condition of the JDM motor is. They can even lie about mileage. Even to this day I don't believe that all these engines have 30-40k miles. You also don't know how long it's been sitting, you atleast already know what you...

    intercooler questions..

    I have a set of cooleze hardpipes for stock IC setup that I picked up. It doesn't get rid of the 3000 pipe though. The top pipe from the 3000 into the fender is thermal wrapped since it sits right above the turbo and it has has an HKS flange. Interested? PM me. Jose

    Changing my first head gasket, and maybe head!

    Look at the TSRM EPC, it should have everything you need. Vacuum hoses, just buy bulk hose and measure, cut and replace them as desired. Pre-Molded Hoses, find the part number on EPC and order from Toyota. I would personally stay with an OEM gasket, if your plans are not too high. Especially if...

    No. Unless it dried on the freeway when it happened? Idk when exactly it happened though, but my overflow looked fine.
