Codes??

I read that the rear mounting tabs are weak and that is the reason Toyota switched to plastic rear links, thoughts?

Give it another 6 years and this might work

Those are some damn nice welds

Two of my sway bar end links are on the way out (front driver, rear driver) and I was wondering if it is worth it to switch to metal adjustable end links or just get another set of OEM end links? I have Suspension Techniques sway bars. Thanks!

Contact serious hp.

The amount of people who like my car and give me thumbs up way outnumber the amount that think it's lame. I've even had a redneck tell me how he usually hates "rice rockets" but mine is pretty cool. There's not a lot of cars you can get for under $6000 that produce that kind of respect. I don't...

The AFRs seem all over the place when under WOT, i've seen it spike lean, go rich, stay kinda lean... I will drive it tomorrow and get a look at whats happening. It doesn't seem to stay rich consistently.

The ecu was definitely repaired. The car would idle at 10 AFR and was almost undriveable before I sent the ECU off, hopefully it isn't still messed up in some way. When I opened it afterwords I didn't see any leaking capacitors. I'm going to take my injectors to get cleaned sometime this week...

I will check tomorrow, I haven't been driving the car much lately. Fuel pressure does seem to drop a little quicker then I would expect after the car is turned off though.

Spark plugs seem to be in acceptable shape, actually now that I think about it, when I changed them they were pretty black. I will try taking my USDM 550s to http://www.injectorrx.com/ sometime soon, since they are near where I live. I guess this will mean I have to order new o-rings for the...

My 1J seems to have oil contamination. The dipstick and oil cap both have a distinct gas smell, and a recent oil change smelled like gas as well. I have checked compression which is all 180 except cylinder 5 which was about 170. I also did a block test which came back negative. This seems to...

I call BS, JZs can't be blown!

Wow that is terrible news, I wish you the best of luck on your recovery. Can I ask what happened, were they able to catch the fucker that did it? The car isn't important right now, health always comes first.

Anyone know where I can buy a charcoal canister online? I know the JZA70 ones work but those are nearly impossible to find. I would rather not search around in a junk yard without an idea of what I am looking for either...
