  1. you get those int. parts yet? timing sucks with these things, im still fiddling with mine. one of these days ill learn to do it right RV
  2. i dont know if this helps or not so, sorry if it doesnt. on my festiva i would have oil in the intake sometimes and it seemed to be coming from the breather tubes. it didnt seem to hurt anything and everyone i talked to back then said it was no big deal RV
  3. hey charlie, nice to have you here. welcome home RV
  4. ahem, DONT DO IT!!! it wont work, alloys are weak enough as it is and drilling them only makes it worse. go to the junkyard and get yourself some steelies and do it right RV
  5. there are people with more exp. than me so maybe i should let them comment but yes the 4wd system will work, but i think the gas tank is different. RV
  6. hey abe....i just thought of something, that dr 5spd you gave me? is that a 3.9 or 3.7???

  7. good lord man, i musta had enough beer to not fully grasp the insanity of that car when you were up here last. you NEED to suffer and drive it up here next time so i can see/believe it. oh btw that lagunitas stout kicked rump roast. much luck slowing that thing down, hope the brake stuff works RV
  8. first of all...............welcome as for the tick, everyone will tell you it wont hurt your car. the tick of death is just a scary name. lots of stuff can cause it, and i would go for the flush to see if you can clean out the lifters and get em pumping up again RV
  9. hey i got one of the heads off and it appears to have had something go WAY wrong in there. i havent got the other off yet but the one has some damage (and the small crack they all seem to get

  10. carbonado eh? you know a monica peterson???? i know this isnt fb but its worth a poke in the dark.

  11. make sure your castle nut is torqued enough.....and check the wedge washer for damage as these things could be preventing your bearings from being tight. RV
  12. tacoma pull a part regularly has available parts for both of those cars. i love my loyale but id love to have a justy.........you could always put a 13b in that beezy and haul the mail or keep the rpms low and save gas. or, drive the 3 cyl and destroy gas mileage. bottom line: if its strictly for commuting, justy. if your gonna use it for anything else, go ea82 and tune up/t belts .02 RV
  13. my dad has a 89 s10 w/ 4.3 80k those motors rock. and vortec(port polish) RV
  14. ***caution limited experience*** itd prolly be a bunch of work but is the head still good on the old motor? if they are similar could you not swap them??? again, i have NO exp w/ ej's but methodically it makes cents to me (corrections expected) RV
  15. welcome home........if you are ever down in the tacoma area lets have beers RV PS love that green
  16. ya i could do anything really.........theyre custom shirts, she drew the logo and everything in the computer RV
  17. oops heres the front. ill also learn how to shrink pics soon:drunk: http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc201/naomirford/DSC01683.jpg RV
  18. my wife works at a shirt shop and she made me this...................... i know i know, its a loyale shirt. but i love my car and i wanna represent it. i can have more made. im not sure if i should put this in this forum or classifieds cuz im not nec. trying to sell them, just wanted to show off. all you guys got5 your brat/imp shirts, i had to throw down for the loyale w/cheese [/img] RV
  19. i need a hacksaw to get thru the bolt

  20. GL-10? more like GL 1000!!!! whhhhhhhhhhhooooooooooooooooommm.........pshhh (the sound of your homda getting smoked by a wagon)
  21. i suppose it prolly wasnt the "gnx" cuz it wasnt supercharged, had a electronic carb tho. WAY FAST. those 3.8s were designed for running 24hrs le mons (now good for 24 hrs lemons:lol:) they were designed to sustain high rpms
  22. not a whole lot you can really do to ramp up a ea82....most of these folks go to the ej series motor (ej18 ej22 etc) WARNING: if you turbo that thing youll need a new motor for suresies RV
  23. ya, my 3.8 was cool but if i ever stop smoking subie crack long enough to get another celica, itll def have a 4.3
  24. man, i like this thread......................the 3.8 regal gnx v6 motor i had in a 76 celica outran a 90s 728 like it was sitting still(we started @ 90 mph)
  25. there is a company here in tacoma called small car performance, the do fully electric vw beetles. pretty fast too. RV
