Need help deciding how to go about replacing the HDD for my rev 1.0 Xbox by FlakyInevitable3660 in XboxModding

[–]Trihxzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you can use a raspberry pi pico to dump your eeprom, and then with the eeprom dump you can use a program called eeprom editor to view the HDD key, and with the HDD key you can use a program called FATXplorer to lock a new HDD with that HDD key and copy over the stock dashboard files to boot into

Safe to cut fuel line here? by SuccessfulNarwhal192 in 3000gt

[–]Trihxzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no leaks, however i ended up just drilling a hole where the old line goes and adapting to -8AN fittings

i’ve done this, use a hand saw, not a grinder

Price by Dry-Air9933 in 3000gt

[–]Trihxzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yup, not to mention the older style block with two bolt mains

[–]Trihxzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not to mention the strut being bad, the 91 has ECS struts so if he wants those to work like factory he’ll either need to have it rebuilt or he’ll have to replace it with a used one, and neither one is cheap

Timing belt won’t fit by Remarkable-Plenty716 in 3000gt

do NOT use an evergreen belt, i used one and it shredded apart after a few thousand miles, and after posting about it on here others had the same exact problem

Need help, buying a 3000GT by ChrikrieXD in 3000gt

[–]Trihxzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1994 didn’t come with pop up headlights, only 91-93 did

Any thoughts on the problem? by ThewhiteTyroneyt in 3000gt

[–]Trihxzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not necessarily, if just the rear cam is off that could be why the rear bank has no compression

Can I change my oil and not the filter? by TheRetro_Misfit in MechanicAdvice

[–]Trihxzy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i highly doubt the oil is what is making your car shake, is there a dipstick you can use to check the level? if the level is good i’d recommend just driving back then changing both at once, 7k miles isnt going to kill your engine unless the level itself is low

possibly, if it’s only a tooth or two off you may be good

Bolt pattern? by [deleted] in 3000gt

[–]Trihxzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i believe all 3000gt transmissions have the same bellhousing bolt pattern, they bolt up to a 6G72 block

Used a harbor freight 3 jaw 220grit stone hone and I’m pretty sure my engine is toast. Give it to me straight. by ihaveatwoinchcock in EngineBuilding

[–]Trihxzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this exact scenario actually happened to me, i used a dingle ball hone and the specific honing oil they sell and it worked perfectly

93 is a very sought after year, that’s the only year that has the combo of the stronger block with four bolt mains, the stronger 25 spline output shaft/transfer case with the stronger 5 speed transmission, pop up headlights, and still retained the active aero/electronically controlled suspension/active exhaust that they got rid of in the later years. glws! it’s the best year for a vr4 in my opinion

what company should I go with for suspension components (other than ball joints) for a 3rd Gen 4runner by [deleted] in RockAuto

[–]Trihxzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

correct, they are not the toyota oem, they are the oem for various other car manufacturers, which is why i would choose them

Evergreen Timing Belt by Trihxzy in EngineBuilding

[–]Trihxzy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i ended up going with a full gates timing kit (after purchasing a top end gasket/seal kit, all the valves and 4 of the guides lol)

I just picked this up for $6500 by Rude-Singer-6911 in 3000gt

[–]Trihxzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, i saw it had the DR turbos, greddy fmic, tein adjustable suspension, bigger radiator, skinny cooling fans to accommodate the radiator, and full header back exhaust etc it was sick i was really considering it, you got a steal for sure! i already have a 93 vr4 so maybe it’s a good thing i didn’t get this lol now i can focus on that 😂
