I've got a MkIII supra with a 1JZ swap that's giving me fits. Im currently deployed in Afghanistan so looking around for a shop is a little difficult. Im just looking for some recommendations from people about any shops in the ATL area that would work on my Supra. Thanks in advance for the help.

One day after many weeks of building our bathroom's and showers, we thought we had finished, only to be cursed with no cold water. After careful deliberation, we decided the only thing to do was to offer a sacrifice to appease the pagan Afghani gods. What you are about to see may shock and amuse...

First off, I apologize for not being able to search thoroughly, but I'm currently deployed in Afghanistan and busy as hell. Ive got an 89 Supra with a 1JZ swap. My JZA70 ecu took a shit on me before i deployed. i bought an ECU, but in my ignorance, it was a Soarer ECU, so the connectors do not...

HI, ive currently got an '89 MkIII with a 1jz in it. When the car was running i loved it. however, the ecu went bad and the twin smokers blew. i got the twins replaced and have a new ecu, unfortunately it's the soarer ecu and i can't find the ecu plugs to go with it, having had a jza70 ecu in it...

is there a way to diagnose if you have a jacked up 1jz ECU? i mean, other than getting a known good ECU and plugging it in to see if your problem goes away? im having a lot of the same issues as other people who have had messed up ECU's have had. id like to know for sure before i buy one lol

well i got my new(ish) turbo installed, just a replacement for my stock twins on my 1jz but my car still runs like shit. it is running pig rich, to the point that it misfires and bogs down if you engage the throttle more than 1/5th of the way. you can just smell the fuel getting dumped in there...

i believe the 1jz has a stock bov. when i bought my current supra with a 1jz swap, the owner had swapped in new IC pipes and IC but did not replace the bov. would this have caused my rear turbo to blow? it was getting oil, but still blew. i should add that there were some exhaust leaks and i...

what do you guys think? ive included some of the top guys in the voting. i have to ndamukong suh of nebraska. dude is a beast. he can single-handedly control the other teams line of scrimmage. about time a defensive guy won instead of the usual qb/rb. EDIT: apparently i fucked up and forgot...

hey whats up. ive got a 1jz twin turbo mkIII. im wondering what the stock fuel injector limit is as far as power goes (i.e. increasing boost). ive got a walbro 255 fuel pump installed already and would get a safc before messing with the boost levels. can i safely increase the turbo psi on my...

hey guys/gals, i need a hand here. i think i may have blown a turbo. i was driving on the interstate and hit about 4000rpms (about 3/4 throttle) and it was like the engine just stopped accelerating. the rpms didnt go higher or anything. it was like a veritable brick wall. after that, my engine...

i believe it was (oddly enough) in one of the 2jz cam swap into 1jz threads, someone mentioned that the r154 was kind of a weak transmission. that it could only handle around 350lbs/ft of tq before things started breaking. is this true and something i need to plan around when upgrading my car...

Hi my name is adam. i just bought a 1989 Supra that has a 1jz-gte engine swap and has a r154 tranny. i bought it from 5l_eater (jesse) who was also kind enough to let me use his username for a bit so i could get seatbelts for the car (he had planned to put in aftermarket harness'). so anyway, im...
