-------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Yes I know I do....am dropping the old "Insanity-74" user name and using my real name instead, after seeing a doctor the insanity has been cured. & I`m back to normal...well as normal as possible.

I dont know yet...that was just a test fitting to line up the final weld correctly, but its right on the limit of available space so getting it to fit in the space and line up has been a bit of a nightmare....I have some water pipework to figure out as again its very tight under there with not alot of space.....I`ll need to relocate one or two standard sensors and reroute some cabling. Hopefully this time next week I`ll be able to give you the answer and it will all be done.

Nice man - nice. So how does it feel? I know where you can get a ST-205 W2A IC sticker for the top - I think it would look great on top of that.
Top notch work man - wanna make me one now?

I peeled mine off an old charge cooler I had that I cut open during my research its like a thick plastic sticker held on by 4 strips of double sided sticky tape...or the Toyota dealers sell them for not alot of money QUOTE (lagos @ Nov 2, 2008 - 10:08 PM) incredible work, man. Thanks...that really means alot coming from you after seeing some of your genius work

I`m Just using toyota for life stuff...the lowest temp was on a first run (just as the engine reached operating temp) and the ambient temp was about 0deg....theres no way I`d see temps that low on a proper run.
Temps average out at about 27C/82F On a very hard run today where the car got a beating the temps reached 34C/94F...ambient temp is about 10C/50F...thats just about what I`d expect on the track. The weak point is the radiator which I`ll be making a replacement for soon
