    Don't think I'm going to. We have plenty R12 available at the shop.

      One day of running open headers and my car is blowing blue smoke in high rpm's I'm not sure if it's all the years of caked oil burning off my car or I fucked something up.

      I think an sr20 will pull a premium at racewars.

        Probably running super rich because no oxygen sensor......

          running open headers allows the cooler air to enter into the system when engine is shut off. When this happens those red hot exhaust valves can and will stress crack. running open headers can lead to catastrophic engine damage. Drag racers will put plugs in their open headers after a run to prevent this...

            Had a crazy flashback today. Some catalyzed adhesive got stuck in my eyelashes and I remembered this small period of time during grade school when I was addicted to blinking. Like a hundred times a minute maybe. I thought it was imaginary until I viewed home videos of it years later.

                I have an o2 sensor in the xpipe, and well obviously I have the xpipe wich puts my exhaust dumping out about 6" past the fender. Plus with how hot it has been I'm hoping the cold air going back into the head won't be an issue.

                    If anybody is looking for a set of weaves, I saw a set at the Tacoma PNP. 15x7 et20, 5 lug. I think they were asking 149 or something

                          Any idea why my trunk light + OBC light would go out? Both are not working, everything else seems to be fine and all the fuses are OK.

                          Any thoughts, r3v?
                          This sounds dumb but are you sure it's not just two burned out bulbs?

                              +1 OBC light strips are a common issue, i'd check the connection on the trunk light

                                Could be on the OBC bulb, but the trunk light is actually Luke's lighted amp rack...
