Thanks ae86levin, I have read the 4wheelin.ca site and that was pretty good, that other one is awesome too cheers.

Is a boost compensator needed or is it a bit of a finer tuning thing?

Cheers, Stubbs

In effect, boost compensator's limit the fuel when off boost. Without one, the engine will run ...

Re: few highsteer questions

If you are only buying the high steer arms, get them straight from TG. They are now doing USPS Priority Flate Rate International Shipping boxes for $US 40-50. Can also get your ends and pitman arm as well.
Not sure about shocks though, maybe try a freight forwarding company?

Re: 3RZ missing under no load

No intake resonator on mine. Can't tell much intake noise, between the gearbox whine, wind and exhaust.. :lol:

I would say it feels like more of a power spot, than a flat spot. Car goes great guns though. Will check the fuel reg though.

You can't get the rotor off the stub? Should just come away, nothing but the bearing is holding it on.

Re: 3RZ missing under no load

Interesting... I am using a 4WD ECU, intake as above and a stock fuel regulator. I am also finding a flat spot around a similar rev range, hard to tell without a tacho. The flat spot is not noticeable, until you rev past it and the power hits.

Anyone having similar problems with a stock 3RZ or is ...

Knock sensor is underneath the intake, next to No 3 cylinder. 1 only. Check for continuity between body and plug.
