As the title states I am quite confused onto where the starter wire is. I believe it to be a larger gauge black wire. And i've looked through the whole harness and its not to be found anywhere. If anyone can give me some insight that would be great. The engine and harness is from a 91 soarer.
Ok so I bought a 1uz and its now sitting in my car and the guy I bought it from also sent me the ecu for this engine by mail. When I received it the ecu looked like it was ran over a few times by a forklift. Opened it up and the circuit board is cracked in half. The problem i'm having is I cant...
So ive got a 2jz im putting together and the cam cap threads in the head stripped so I fixed all of them but they stripped again. Now I go to remove the head and it will not budge.I even flipped engine upside with the corner nuts on and a few threads up and proceeded to beat on it till my mallet...
So im building a 2jzge and im thinking about going with the xspower turbo t4 manifold and since i have a ct26 sitting putting that on with an adapter. Does anyone see any problem why this wouldnt work. Ive searched and all i could find is people asking and someone saying the turbo is too small...
In this build thread i'm going to have updates via videos because I think its easier to work with then having to always stop and take pictures and just have it record. I did start this in the middle of my project.

I am building a 2jz with a is300 block and sc300 head. I called Lexus and they said the bottom end gaskets wasn't the same part numbers. What could be the differences? If i buy a full sc300 gasket set it should work right? reason for sc300 head is im going now vvti.
Just wondering what brakes you guys are running. Ive got some slotted rotors and not sure what pads (got them off of friends old setup). This setup stops like hell but after 2-3 laps of a pretty technical course it fades real bad.
So my supra steering wheel doesn't center back after making a left turn; it stays at about 10-11 o'clock. Then if i make a hard right turn it will center back. This is causing the steering to be very unresponsive on the track and curvy roads. If someone could help me pinpoint this problem that...
So i was just wondering if there has been any other engine swaps then the usual 1/2jz or v8. I really like the idea of lightening up my supra and jz engines are pretty heavy and im not really a fan of v8s. Has anyone heard of or thought of an engine swap that thats light and make could make...
Theres a lexus 2jzge vvti out of a 03 is300 for sale locally. and im very interested into doing a swap in my 88 supra . I was just wondering if this would be possible to achieve. I have not seen anyone with that setup and im kinda confused on why because you can get these engines very cheap.
I have a corbeau fx1 seat, and im 6'3". when i have to wear my helmet my head is just pressed against the top. i just need to know if anyone has a seat that has the driver sit deeper and lower. Thanks.
Hi yesterday when i was on my way to ihop i did a pull with my friend everything was going fine until i stopped at the light; there was so much smoke half the car started to fill up. I burn a little oil at idle so i know how much smoke there usually is. The car still drives good with good oil...
I was just wondering what your stock 7mgte dyno numbers. I had my mk3 on the dyno the other day 230 hp 340 tq. Its competly stock expect for a 3" exhaust. Is this what you guys are around?
So ive had my mk3 since January and the paint was a faded ass black and just decided i was going to do a full paint job myself. Im not sure why because i have never painted anything in my life. I finally got it done dosent look too bad...Next 2jz swap this winter.
I was just wondering if anyone had wrapped the intake pipe that runs across the engine with heat resistant tape? I was thinking that you could get some power gains from it. Im not too sure why this idea just popped into my head but if you have done it i would like to hear about your results.
The other night i noticed that at idle i was burning a little oil and the oil pressure was a little low. i checked the oil level and it was acceptable level but i did add a little bit more. After i did this my oil pressure went back to normal. i drove a bout 60 miles that day and now my oil...
Last night i just had a thought of putting in a keyless push button start in my supra for no other reason then i think its interesting. I was thinking of making an accessory switch with a push button start. Has anyone ever done this and could give me some advice that would be appreciated. Im...
I want to get started in some entry level drifting. I was thinking tein ss coilovers and a 2 way kaaz. If you drift an mk3 i could use some advise on setup; any input on coilovers and diffs feel free to post your experience with them.
