  1. I have seen pics of that RA Celica....beautiful car...LOVE It! Yasin
  2. With the 944 IC being so thick, it will be difficult for it to not stick out that much. Yasin
  3. I like the new Altezza blue tailights on the left....sweet! LOL Yasin
  4. Wow...he was only 53!!! That is so young...very sad. Yasin
  5. I used the Mk3 Supra intercooler and its junk for the following reasons: 1) Large pressure drop across them. The reason these intercoolers are so available is that this is on of the first upgrade the Supra owners do. 2) They are not cross flow 3) See the poor design on the end tanks, well they are well known to rip the aluminum at the end tank that is opposite the side where the intake and outtake pipes are...the aluminum is very thin on these intercoolers. Lift that Fisher Price made Supra intercooler and then lift an equally sized Spearco, HKS, Apexi and you will see the difference in quality and construction 4) The fins are a very old design that damage easy and cool inadequately. If you are going through the massive effort of putting an intercooler in your Z, at least put a good quality unit and then you don't have to do things twice. Yasin
  6. Congrats...looking forward to it!!! Thats an honor to have your hard work recognized and reach a global audience. Yasin
  7. http://www.leenks.com/pics/?gid=194&view=22 Anyone know what engine it is? Looks like an Australian straight 6? Yasin
  8. Here is how I did it guys: http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery/view?p=999&gid=3253563&uid=504386 Lots of pics there. Yasin
  9. 240zprace - where did you get your performance valve springs? Thanks - Yasin
  10. You are asking an excellent question....one on which I am sitting on the fence on. I considered the Accusump (1qt pre-oiler) at one time....but then I figured this world has some dang hot street cars (Ferraris, 600hp+ Vettes, Lambos and Porsches etc etc), cars that make my ZXT look like garabage and they do not have Accusumps installed, and we know those owners can afford them! So I decided to not bother...I have only really seen Preoilers and Accusumps installed on mosted heavily abused track race cars. Yasin
  11. Wow...very neat packaging.....must be incredible to drive!
  12. Says "access denied"
  13. Coooool...That is my next purchase for the garage! Yasin
  14. Why is your fuel pressure so low? 20psi? I have a fully 3" on my car with straight through Flowmaster, gutted cat and no silencer and the car is not loud at all... Sounds like you have so work to do to your brakes and fix your water leaks. Yasin
  15. I would say that 150whp is a damn good pull. Yasin
  16. I completely disagree with tony78_280z, you DO NOT want your electric fan running all the time. EFI engines need to get up to an optimum operating temp. and having the electric fan running all the time will impact that expecially if the ambient temperatute is very low. Plus why would yoy want that constant draw on your alternator all the time? Just get the thermostat kit and you will be fine. $27 from Summit Racing, see below! Yasin
  17. I strongly recommend puchasing the electric fan thermostat kit that you can buy from Flex-A-Lite, very cheap insurance from Summit Racing...can't beat it! Yasin
  18. Austin - Looks great buddy, glad to see you back on here. I still cringe after thinking about your 260ZT...and its sad demise...glad the powe plant will live on in your new project. You are doing some wonderful work...congrats.... Yasin
  19. You are asking a VERY general question....but 300-350hp reliable hp is attainable even on really high mileage turbo engines. Yasin
  20. Wow..that is some great ole skool ish...if I had money laying around it would be cool to have as Datsun Memorabilia...!! I have bought from that seller and he she is excellent to deal with. Yasin
  21. I love the 5spoke....VERY nice...but I think the center cap spoils it...should be a simple center cap to make it look tasteful. Yasin
  22. Sorry yes my bad...I meant crank angle sensor... Yasin
  23. JEEEEEZUS.....that is beautiful......so I guess you removed the VVT? I LOVE it! Yasin
