Alloy crank pulleys any good??? - 6G Celicas Forums

Lightweight pullies are retarded on any inline 4 cylinder engine. On top of that, they're even more stupid to put on our engines because of this:
Before balancing my engine (a stock, unmolested engine...

running 2 batteries - 6G Celicas Forums

Running a cal and battery do help, but they strain the alternator as well, having to keep both of them charged constantly.
It's a better idea to have a high output alternator for ICE.

Ball bearing will boost faster, all else equal.
Cams should be chosen with the company's rating and the streetability you have in mind. 268 will be more streetable than 274, but will make less power, ...

In coolants, it's the ethylene glycol (an alcohol), also used to avoid freezing at below 30*F (that's why it's also known as anti-freeze).
The radiator cap, however, is what is used to increase pressu...

You don't NEED a water/meth kit. Ever. Just like you don't NEED race gas.
However in a turbo setup, regardless of what the ambient temp is, your IATs will be always high. High meaning 100+*F. Always. ...

The best ebay manifold is the cast iron one for the 3sgte. It'll hold up to best. Don't use the external wastegate port on it. Dumping exhaust off just 1 runner doesn't make for a reliable boost contr...

Late model 5sfe camrys have wasted spark coil packs.
They also use a crank and cam angle sensor with no distributor.

Thanks. I recently confirmed it with Summit Racing.
The Clio 16v kit is m9x1.00 1.6"uhl. All that remains is testing how viable it is to machine some kind of guide pin on the rods.
Something like this...

All that would be left remaining is a custom pin setup to locate the rod caps. Shouldn't cost much from a local machine shop.

I've been searching all over the place for the thread pitch for the 7A-FE rods, since they are a cap-screw design rather than a pass-through like the 5S-FE is stock.
However, I can confirm that an M9 ...

Well update on the threadjack but, for 5sfe rods, a m9x1.0 tap is really tight in the oem rod studs. Will make a separate post.

A thread tap M8 size is too small for the 5S-FE rods. Already tried. M10 is too big and feels like it'll eat into the rod bearing area.
Will need to try M9x1.00 tap next.

The main difference between 5SFE bolts and 7AFE bolts is that the 5SFE bolts are more like studs, so they will probably not be available in anything other than the standard ARP alloy. (means no ARP20...
