I have on order a 2.0MM GReddy MHG and through searching ive heard that there is not Viton coating on these headgaskets. Is it okay to install dry and should I? Or should I spray some copper sealent on it and then install? Just want to know before I do anything. Thanks for your time ~JDMMA70

So i had to get the info of this car from a friend who recognized it. So story time, im heading home from work two nights ago, when i see a clean albeit slammed black RSX that was debaged except for a Honda badge in place of the Acura badge. It was a eye catcher for sure as it had blue wheels...

i thought punching holes in blocks was impressive but this has topped it for me. This 1ZZ engine from a Matrix came knocking into the shop and everyone thought it was a spun bearing but nope. The rod bearings were fine too

On my way home tonight I ran into a MK3 Golf VR6 on the freeway, he had already passed me to get in front of me on the on ramp I decide to play with him. I pull up next to him and give the driver a nod he downshifts and gave me a smirk (he must know something i didnt), and we wait for for the...

I did not see a thread on this on SupraMania so i decided to make one post some info and ask a few questions myself regarding this. This is in regards to the 90915-YZZG1 (known as 08922-02011 old P/N) oil filter. This is the filter listed under the parts catalog as the correct filter for the...

So yesterday i charged the AC system after replacing the compressor with a new unit and a new reciever. The compressor would not kick on even after reaching 35psi on the low side. I charged the first can in liquid with the car off through the high side. On my second can after i started the car...

Does anyone make a t3 manifold now a day for the 7M? I know blitz and greddy did at one point. Im looking to go external wastegate on my 20G and would like a tubular manifold to make things easier. Hoping to get suggestions and ideas if you have any that conform with my goal. Thanks

Im working part time at my local toyota dealership to help get through college. I dunno if the owner of this car is on here or not if so i hope he or she doesnt mind i post photos. So one of the techs is working on this car and i stroll by and since im a bit nerdish when it comes to MK3s i...

Ok guys i have a few questions regarding the recharge of the R12 system. First i do have a few 12oz cans of R12 left so this isnt about where i can get it. Second the system is completely empty as i had to replace the compressor with one of my spares, i used the recovery machine at work (thats...

Got them in today finally i was too tired when i got home from work to start working on them so ill start tomorrow. I was excited though so i had to take some pics. its my understanding from my friend whom i bought these from that these are Kei Office KS-05R's, they are 17x9 +20...

Well last time i did this i repainted a set of factory 5 spokes and the result was great. This time however its time for a new set of wheels. This is a photo edit of said wheels on the car, nevermind what model they are we can talk about that later but its the colour we are concerned...

So ive been having starting issues ever since i changed starters when my original 88 starter stop working (just needed new contacts). I installed a 92 starter which after a month gave me issues after a month. I tried replacing the contacts didnt help, took it back to Advance Auto (i already know...

Well my 20G started smoking really bad, and i narrowed it down to the oil seals in the turbo. My BOV started to puke oil everytime it opened so i figure it HAD to be that. Well when removing it this morning removing the lower IC pipe was interesting as about a quart of oil came pouring out onto...

Does anyone know if the TD06 and TD06H Turbos Flatback or Superback wheel turbos? I need to get a rebuild kit for mine and would prefer to order it before i start taking it apart. If the mods feel this would be better suited for the turbocharger section feel free to move it. Thanks...

Im wondering if there are any other options as far as wastegate acutators go for the 20G? For example would a 14B actuator with some modification of course fit a 20G and work properly. I would prefer to close my flapper door again without having to worry about the GReddy wastegate spooling...

My downpipe has broken at the flex section (The top part of the flex section that leads to the top flange that mounts to the elbow). My question is, is the diameter of the flex section the inlet and outlet 2.5" on both sides or 2.5" to 3"? I want to make sure i can find the right flex pipe so i...

So ive been having a pretty crappy week, things havent been going to so well with my boss but you know not much one can do about that, such is life. Well just when you think it couldnt get any worse they always manage too. Im sitting at Whataburger having lunch with my dad, well about 2 minuets...

I just recently swapped my old dead A340 to what i now know is a 1JZ auto. I was wondering if using a 92 ECT computer (assuming it fits) would be a worth while upgrade as ive read here. http://www.mkiiitech.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26 that the shift points were revised in 1992. If it works...

Im going crazy because if i look at the pulley it looks like its moving ever so slightly in an up and down motion. Now it could very well be the rust on the pulley and as it spins gives it the illusion that its wobbling. What made me look at it was, after swapping transmission i heard this...

I recently swapped out transmissions in my car, to a cleaner used 1jz auto. If shifts fine, smooth, still need to adjust the kickdown cable but, there are no problems going into gear, or shifting. However theres a buzzing sound, which i have a hunch is electrical because lets say if i roll down...
