Today, my mate and I did a compression test to reveal a massive leak which came from the BOV flange. And to our surprise, the flange of the BOV was damaged :( Good news is that it was an easy fix :mrgreen: We will continue to check for leaks again tomorrow since it was already late. Hopefully the ca...

I had changed the spark plugs with the correct 0.8mm gap however the misfiring is still present. It does improved things a bit though.

Hi, I drive a 1990 SW20 Turbo. A few weeks ago, the car suffered from misfiring when it hit 0.6 bar (8-9psi) of boost. Below that boost level, the car runs fine. What could be the causes for the misfire? I already check the ignition lead and it is still in good working condition. Can it be caused by...

Changing the wheel and re-balance it?

Can it be fitted onto SW20's E153 gearbox?

A few weeks ago, a friend of mine wanted to try out his new rig set up. Here are some pics

I was driving my AW11 a few days ago when the fan & battery warning light suddenly lit up. I noticed that the voltage gauge showed the drop in volts reading. However, the warning lights lit up intermittantly. What could be the cause of this? Alternator on its way out or could it just be the rela...

This is my other classic car a 1979 Toyota Celica TA23. Me and my dad had been resurrecting this car from a scrap. I have the intentions to mod this into a 70's style modded cars i.e. TRD ducktail, lowered, TRD front spiltter and 13x8 ET0 Enkei Compe wheels :mrgreen: http://i261.photobucket.com/albu...
