    K&N or Spectre

    Blowby coupled with high silicon content is an indication of poor filtration. However, it's your car - run a dirty sock on it if you want.

    K&N or Spectre

    Visually it doesn't mean much. Send a 3,000 or more mile oil sample to someplace like Blackstone Labs. The silicone levels in your oil will tell you how much dirt is getting in your motor, and the amount of fuel in your oil will indicate how much blowby you've developed by scouring your...

    A little less sarcasm please folks. Let's keep this productive.

    7mgte gt45 turbo

    You've given two aspects of a turbo, not a turbo model. A T4 is a flange size/style. There are thousands of turbos that follow this spec. A .68 A/R is the aspect ratio of either the turbine or compressor housing. These two things don't describe a specific turbo.

    is the price right for this MK4?

    The hardtops are lighter and the chassis is more rigid, this tends to be a good platform for a road course car. But yes, the hardtops are far more rare. The turbo hardtops are absolutely rare. (Only about 300 total sold in the US over all MKIV model years.) There's a site hosted on this server...

    HKS 7mgte Sport Upgrade

    So it's an obscure marking? The face looks like the turbo pictured above, correct?

    HKS 7mgte Sport Upgrade

    I have yet to see a single pic of an "HKS Sport Turbo" that had this. I'm not saying it's untrue, I've just never seen it. Anyone tried to contact Reg Reimer on this? Reg would know.

    is the price right for this MK4?

    It's a bit high for an auto targa. It it were a 5-spd hardtop I'd jump on it. Since it's an auto, I'd negotiate it down a bit. With that said, it appears to be in VERY good shape. Nice looking car.

    vpc 1 vs three resistor question

    It's hosted on this server. It belongs to Larry_A (lkanderson) who has been around Supras for a very long time. I honestly wouldn't even mess with a VPC these days. There are too many better options at this point.

    I just finished building my new reloading bench: I'm pretty happy with how it came out. The work surface is 8' x 4' and the top is made of 3/4" finish grade Birch. I'll get the press, etc setup another time. I need to get some sleep tonight.

    Installing a gt35r with stock ecu

    This is the fifth time I've seen that failure on a 7M in the last 20 years. Once during assembly after a rebuild, twice in the car shortly after a rebuild, last one was months later and now yours. How long has this motor been in the car? Was the block hot tanked before assembly? I'm trying to...
