    Twin Disc Spec clutch info and feedback needed

    No the OS Giken does not have bands, it has "teeth " that stick out and fit in notches in the flywheel basket. Yes it is a complete bolt on but you do need a push/ pull converter. It takes a bit of fidling to get the adjustment right but its a great clutch...I have the twin plate sprung hub...

    Branch resonators - ways of reducing exhaust drone

    I think the only place a branch pipe would fit well it between the rear subframe and the gas tank. Will just a section of pipe work or a can style resonator with one end capped?.

    Twin Disc Spec clutch info and feedback needed

    I just installed a OS Giken twin plate in my car two days ago and its great, the drivability is nice however the pedal effort is about the same as a RPS max or ACT xtream PP. Power wise I am only at about 420ish but will be tuning for higher boost in the next week or so.

    JDM tow hook

    I have seen those hooks on JDM JZA70's that have come through the shop. They mount through the bumper support bolt holes. They normally have to be removed for front mount IC systems.

    Please Help, Bosch 044 fuel pump problem

    I just got a 044 for my car, try www.jayracing.com for the fittings. I had my stuff in a week. Summit or Jegs should also have what you need. Also go through the Earls, Russell and Aeroquip catalogs, they have all kinds of metric adapters.

    to get or not to get Ksport Coilovers

    I have dealt with them once on my brothers S13, they blew after 2-3 months and the warranty process took another 2+ months, and they sent a different shock to replace it with. They couldnt tell me which one was the correct one, and which was the wrong one and what was the correct part number...

    Prosport gauge install.

    Autometer gauges arent the best quality out there, they are ok for the price, I have seen Autometer boost gauges that are + or - 3 psi. When you buy one try to find one with that is sitting right on zero when. This is why the zero mark on the gauge is 3-4 psi wide. The ProSPorts are pretty...

Its making 420 ish HP at 18-19 psi and not choking yet, it may at higher PSI (22+) I will find out soon enough. Typically I use .58 turbines on...

    Anyone have experience with this product?

    I have installed one...it sort of fits. The piping hangs really low on the bottom and they dont line up very good. Also the mounting bracket that it comes with doest fit any where, so custom mounting is still needed. Come and see me, we have 1jz intercooler kits that actually fit, and...

    BIC DDP fitment on upgraded turbo

    A CT DDP will not fit on any of the other turbo's. The SP, JT turbos use a Turbonetics or Turbonetics replica housing which is what the BIC SPDDP is designed for. The BOSS turbo's have a totally different housing that will not work with either of the BIC DDP's. The difference it that the area...

    Engine Damper?

    That ebay one looks like it bolts to the intake manifold, thats alot of stress on the intake and small 8 mm studs, if it bolts to the head then thats a better design. The poly mounts will keep the engine from torquing. I will be making a jz bolt on damper similar to the 7m style, I just need...

    Clutch reccomendations for 600-700 whp

    Not many full face disks can hold 500+ tq, the drivability is much better but it just cant hold the power. The Feramic disks are known to weld them selves to the flywheel/ PP when slipped. The 6 puck sprung hub is the common way to go. The ACT HD or XT PP are fine for daily driven cars, I have...
