ye, it's just for now that I used the stock lower section, to see how it'll perform with the larger penum and Q45 TB. So it's more to get a baseline figure on the dyno. I'm busy designing a new one that'll use billet CNC cut runners.

this is after installation.

this is after ceramic coating

you might be thinking about the oil pressure sender, not the oil level sender, the front sump engine has it on the righthand side of the engine.

Hmm, that might be a good thing with my turbo setup.

what I did now and previously: 2 x walbro's running with twin 8mm ID fuel lines to the front, one for each rail then two 8mm returns to my A1000 aeromotive FPR(one on each side of the regulator) and then a 10mm ID return line. I've done this with the bosch pumps too with great success. Get...

ahhh, found some Type 4, sad it's in another city.

Went to toyota to buy my type IV ATF, guess what, they only stock one that says "recommended for all toyota transmissions" and with it in big red letters "Dexron III". Now how's that possible, there's no type 4 here.

What 1/4mile times did you run with the car, or did it break on the first run.

I see Mobil ATF 3309 gets highly recommended by some for the lexus.

I searched through most of the ATF treads but would like to get a little bit more info on some of the oils and problems. What I've read here: 1. Do not use Dexron III, looks like it makes the gearbox slip. What's the reason for this or is it just an additive in the oil causing the problems...

It's nearly finished, All I have to do now is make the new fuelrails and fit the fuel system, pumps, regulator etc.

Hey, are you the same guy from the Microtech forum?

IF it's not tapered then it's probably 1/8BSP thread, they are close but not 100%, I wouldn't recommend screwing te one into the other, I'll check tonight for you if you don't come right.

I'll keep that in mind and keep an eye open for any leaks. Thanks

Mine were 4mm at the spot I drilled and tapped, But I used a 3/8NPT (+-17mm)taper thread fitting with some liquid tread sealer and it worked perfect, normal treads mine strip out there. Thanks

Thanks, that's exactly what I wanted to know/hear.

Has anyone drilled or tapped the alloy part of the sump, What is the average thickness of it, I need to fit my turbo drain but I don't really want to weld something to it, drilling and tapping is easier for me then can just use a screw in fitting.

Thanks, that's what I wanted to hear. The engine bay wil look cleaner too without them.

From what I've read on the forum the heater system works with a valve that opens and closes the flow of the engine coolant through the heater radiator. So when it's closed it totally stops the flow of coolant. Why I want to know this is because I want to totally remove the heater hoses and the...
