I've been reading far too much misinformation on this site lately and want to do something about it. Also, this is my way of giving back to the 6gc community, that really motivated my car passion when I was 16. So, keep in mind I no longer own a 6GC so I can't provide too in depth how-to's with pics and a celica to reference. But I feel as if I can supply all the theory information and answer a bunch of questions.

So let me know what kinda how-to or FAQ you wanna see, and I'll apply that college degree of mine to aiding you guys.

wideband with a piggy back unit. is going to be TOO specific for any how to.
it depends on your unit of choice.

but to install a wideband o2 like the AEM wideband uego controller for example

http://www.aempower.com/ViewCategory.aspx?CategoryID=67

is pretty simple
take your car to an exhaust shop.
Have them tap and weld an extra o2 bung into your down pipe. Thread in the wideband o2 sensor.
run the needed wires into the car through the firewall (many ways)
mount the gauge in desired location and connect the respective wires.
(just as a general example)


i wana see some techincal infoz wink.gif
why not start with nitrous smile.gif

How about you explain that first^

then you can ramble on about how nitrous is the answer to all our hp problems and the rest of the 6th gen community are noobs for not using it, cause thats why u started this thread...

I dont know if this is too hard (or has already been done), but how about a "how to" on how to do fiberglassing and bondo and stuff like that? I dont know if its possible, but I would really like to learn how to do that.

FAQ:

Are you asking this because so many people complain about it or because you're being a smartass? Lol.

A write-up on the tune-up would be nice. Also, it'd be a little difficult to ask people on 6gc what they'd want a write-up of when you don't have a 6gc to take pics of when you actually do the write-up.

Tune-Up:
Spark Plugs
Plug Wires
Distributor Cap
PVC Valve
Gas Filter?<---can get a pic for reference if it's not called that...

Maybe include:
Valve Cover Gasket

Maybe even a write-up for an oil change, some people don't know how to do it, I didn't at one point and had noone to show me. Bad times.
