Pay close attention to the rubber boot near the handle. If it is bad the dip stick will pop out a little under hard acceleration then blow oil in your engine bay. Another fix is to squeeze down the dipstick tube a little.
I recently removed my head because of broken t-belt. I know the pistons are aftermarket but I don't know what they are. I was told they are 8.5:1. This is a 6 bolt motor. Can you tell me what these are?
Does anyone know anyone that works or used to work at REI Boulder? I'm trying to get a job there and any info on the company would be valuable. Thank you.
I just moved to Boulder and am looking for a good auto body place for my girlfriends car. And suggestions or places to look out for would be appreciated. Thanks

I have looked all over the site including the big cam identification thread and still do not know what these cams are. They both (intake and exhaust) are marked the same. Near the cam gear end there is a capital B and the small dots aligned in a triangle, when spun around the other side it...
I have an HKS ssqv and I'm looking for an adapter for my stock 1g pipe. I've looked aorund for a bold on one but they are all real exspensive and I'm unsure of the size I need of the other push in type. Does anyone know where to find a cheaper bolt on one or the size of the push in type...
I have a work clutch pedal assembly and I pulled anouther but I turbo assembly has a spring the new one does not. What does the spring do? Is it nessessary?
I have a front mount that I'm waiting a bit to install (like a big red light for cops that my car is modded) but I'd like to use my bov now. I have an aluminum flange but don't want to use it till I do all my piping. Basicly I want the cheapest method to use my valve now but don't want to...

I instaled a new o2 sensor and now the knock only occurs around the 3000 mark to the 4500 so I belive it is a phantom knock. I didn't get around to a boost leak test since most of my times was spent either in the rain or installing an alarm (whitch was the priority of this visit). I will check...
I'm going to replace the o2 sensor (over 100k miles on it), check knock sensor, and do a boost leak test this next week and I will post the results. Thanks for the help.
Today I got my data logger hooked up. I'm now getting knock when accelerationg a little out of cruising (always off boost). If I let off slightly and return it will knock again. If I let off slightly and go wot it will accelerate with knock all the way up. I don't belive I have a vacume leek...
my car was recently broken in to via a few whaks with a hammer under my passenger door handle. My driver handle was also defiled but much less. Ahortly after my car was broken in to I moved it to a friends house an hour and a half away. Now I'm trying to get estimates to fix it, but with...
Well guys, thanks for all the help. But I posted this in 2002 and have had a logger for a long time and in fact running on a diffrent motor without the knock problem I was having.
Someone recently tried to steal my car. They broke my steering wheel lock, detroyed the combo switches, plus more. So I'm going to pull the steering column and replace it. I'm looking for any tips or things to look out for when doing this. Thanks
I'm going to be having my head milled pretty soon and I heard this messes up valve timing since you are bringing the cams closer to the black. Is there anyway to correct this. Few ideas I had was adjustable cam gears or thicker head gasket. Id rather not have to purchase gears. Does anyone...
I'm going to be moving to the modest area soon and i hear that the police are less than kind to street racers and tend to center out cars with louder exhaust sine as many know exhaust sound tickets are based on officers discretion. I'm looking for a lower more quiet catback exhaust. Still 3in...
I recently found out that my crank is slightly bent, and need to be ground. I'd really rather not. So I'm looking for a good 6bolt crank. Where is the best place to look. I've found very little on Ebay, here or dsmtrader. Thanks
I live at lake Tahoe, and I'm gonna need my crank ground. Does anyone from either sac or reno know of a good reputable machinist in their area, that is able to do this. Please let me know. Thanks
my frind has an 87 mark 3 supra and he gave me that core, I made custom pipe 2.5, withch was very difficlut since the inlet and outlet are on the same side. And I saw no nticable diffrence over cutting the underfender guards and pulling the fog light.
