    ECUMaster/VVTi/DBW/6766/ID1300/Forged 3.0/CCW/Mickey Thompson Nonsense

    I haven't researched it directly, but eventually would like to switch to a 3.0 block in my car as well so I've semi paid attention. You may need to use a VVTI block unless you have the hydraulic feed machined in to feed to VVTI, but like I said, I haven't looked into it yet. - you may...

    Jic magic lower control arm bar?

    I have one on my car. More due to the uniqueness of it, but it's visually repetitive. I had read that someone had a noticeable difference, but it gets subjective pretty quickly with this kind of stuff. I also have the DoLuck RXB which I've read mixed reviews about. No first hand experience...

    Aero mirrors on Yahoo.jp

    I thought about it, but am happy with the euro mirrors on my car. Cool, unique piece for sure. Buy it now as well! Can be had more easily now that there's a company exporting directly from yahoo.jp auctions. http://page4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/d153107724

    Drone problems; Sound Deadening Needed

    I ran into it years ago as well with a custom exhaust on my car. There's a way to calculate the frequency using # of cylinders and RPM - from there, you need to have a muffler that eliminates that frequency (referencing wave length and length of muffler). This is where people forget that R&D...

    Am I asking too much?

    For that price, I think you need a better ad with more details. Better, clean pics. Even if the car is worth it to us, it's still a late 80's Toyota that you're asking 8g for, so I'd make sure to spend the time to create a quality ad and the best pics possible. I'd also advertise it to a...

    Gauging Interest: Clear cam gear cover for the 1JZGTE

    Approved by Shaeff. I haven't seen these available and have a local company willing to make them. I know that ATI makes them for the 7M and I believe you can get them for the 2J. Have not been able to locate them for the 1J however, so if you know where to get them, LMK and I'm not going to...

    Cool/Rare parts thread?

    I agree, especially on an N/A car that wouldn't have come with a wing. Makes sense that somebody in the 90's would have put it on to look like a turbo and there wouldn't have been any stock wings available for the most part.

    Diamond Audio D364.5 Install

    I'll do a write-up on that as soon as I get the factory pods to take apart. Thanks for figuring that out fellas!

    Pro Gram Billet Main Caps for 7mgte?

    Real Street does maintain a good reputation within the Supra community. At least I haven't come across anything but good reviews about them. No opinion on the part though :(

    6.5" and or 5 1/4" front speaker info

    Yes, almost the exact same thing

    Hood pin install (not really a build thread)

    Not bad at all! Nice work.

    6.5" and or 5 1/4" front speaker info

    Some of it's covered, but there's the grill for the port below the opening as well. Still much better sound:

    6.5" and or 5 1/4" front speaker info

    I'll try to get some pics of how I mounted my tweeters. I'd recommend either the triangles by the mirrors if the tweeter is small enough or by the driver itself (like factory) if the tweeter is large enough (since you don't want it over-powering the rest of the sound anyway) EDIT - I'm not an...

    New paint and ccw pics

    Good Job.!! I'm a big fan of the Red calipers behind those wheels. Mistake on my part was not doing the same when I picked up that kit awhile back - black blends in so much.
