the MKIII 5 spokes are actually about 7lbs lighter per wheel than sawblades too. MKIV N/A are 16x8 (F), and 16x9 (R), MKIV TT are 17x8 (F) and 17x9.5(R). You'll also notice the MKIV 5 spokes have a raised section in the center of the spoke, where as the MKIII spokes are flat. I have a...

Why not put a 2JZ in it and sell. You would open up that whole "FnF market"

I just got my THIRD turbo in the mail a few days ago. Surge kills :( Surge has been the biggest problem with my car with my single. I'm installing a 2nd SSQV in the car soon.

I priced out a new set of mouldings for my car last week..... It's NOT cheap. You're looking at almost a grand for all of the trim, plus the 89 tails to go with it.

don't bother with a T88. It's ancient technology. You can get much better performing turbos these days.

I think it would be a good replacement for someones rusty targa.

I hear you. I spent $950 on my MKIV wheels, BUT, to me it was worth it, as they were wrapped in BRAND NEW, Yohkohama AVS Sports (255/45, and 285/40). The tires alone are almost that price.

he's saying there's a big chunk missing from his V160 bellhousing, and wants to know if he could just put a W58 bellhousing on in its place.

I started ripping mine apart around 400whp.

mine says: invalid vin ;)

I hate the 5M-E with a passion.

I have a friend with a 2JZ-GTE VVTI in his IS300 making 440whp on stock twins that would beg to differ.

No, he's saying his V160 is cracked.

are you losing any fluids in the car? Like oil or tranny fluid? That would narrow it down.

Uh oh! If you're idling in neutral, and push in the clutch, do the RPMs drop a bit? What sort of clutch are you running? I ask this, because there's one very good explanation for your car stalling with the clutch in: crankwalk. Meet the crankwalk maker:

Your turbo has a BHG! I've recorded EGTs going into my turbo as high as 1500f. Aluminum doesn't like that. I don't run any gasket on my turbo.

I'm partial to the HKS AFPR myself, but I'm an HKS whore.

both.

Correct on both counts. Only the 2.5GT Twin Turbo R (TTR) came with the recaro seats, and all USDM ones just took them out of JDM TTRs.
