    On a 7mgte, when do you need to increase the diameter of crankcase vent lines?

    And Toyota lists 3 different gaskets, including "cylinder head cover number 3" or something like that. The large metric allen bolts can allow oil to pass also. They were installed with FIPG. At least one here used O-rings instead.

    Mk3 oil filter relocation...to where???

    In the cavity on the hold down mount for the truck transport. Also, I started with this and changed my mind. Then I put on the Canton relocation adapter. You should too.

    No Fuel Pressure

    Other fuses? The EFI fuse feeds a big system. Perhaps the pump is done for and the blown fuse is a symptom of that.

    Maybe you didn't understand my rhetorical question. That is ok though.

    Over heated, heat dont work, coolant on the ground

    I'd give you and up-vote for predating that abortion of a movie, The Fast and the Furious. But we don't have that any more.

    cylinder head

    I have seen reman heads for sale at some big name auto parts stores. I would ask about the hardness test IJ mentioned a decade or more ago before buying.

    Mk3 brake/suspension/drivetrain upgrades

    When you said you changed out the front suspension parts and said you had wheel hop. No big thing. Wheel hop with IRS and a limited slip diff is common. Stronger components and the bushings like you have already indicated help a tremendous amount.

    Mk3 brake/suspension/drivetrain upgrades

    Front wheel hop? Care to elaborate? I picture worn out dampers where people don't change them and then the tires get destroyed over a short time.

    Stock IC intercooler flow.

    How does a reduction in restriction cause a pressure drop after the restriction?

    Stock IC intercooler flow.

    auto climate control - starting to blow air BEFORE the set temp

    I prefer the gradual warm up rather than waiting and having the cold windshield hit with warm air and cracking. It sure is a fancy feature though to not have cold air blow on you in winter.

    89 - 91 dash and carpet differences

    My guess (a guess is what I think, not what I know) is that the parts do interchange. The numbers change because the colors and designs change over time. Many people through the years have bolted in and bolted on gauges, tail lights, interior and other things on the different models with minimal...

    AC Condenser Help please

    Cygnus shows 88460-14262. When used on one of the dealer sites, it says that doesn't exist but 88460-14252 does (discontinued) and is to 1990. All I see is used and ebay hits on google. Here is the 14252 selection.

    Headgasket job so far

    I don't agree because the Fel-Pro composite gasket has a steel core which holds to detonation much better.

    Coolant outlet pipe on the back of the head...

    I have taken a few off when the head was off the car. 1/2 ratchet was no problem. But those cars were not from an area where roads are salted.
