I start the engine, revs go up to maybe 2,000, and STAY THERE!! What could be wrong? They usually go that up, but then go down and stay down... but now this is happening. What could be the problem with this? And if I step on the gas, and they go up a bit more, they stay there, at the new...

I was just thinking of a possible scenario here. Say someone already has BIC motor mounts for 1JZ (which should work on a 2JZ as well, right?). Say you have no engine, and you come across a good condition, decent mileage engine from a Lexus GS300 (93-97 model). And it's pretty much the same...

My car is doing something at low rpm (idle), the mechanic says I should get a fuel preassure regulator. I wanna order one online, can you guys point me to one? Engine is a stock 1JZ-GTE 5-spd. Thank you so much in advance!!

Hello fellas. I don't post often at all, but I've been a member for a long time. My 88 hardtop with a 1JZ is on of the cleanest (if not the cleanest) MK3s in my country (Dominican Republic). My "beater" car, which was also used by my wife, is a Honda Integra (94-2001), with the steering wheel...

I know for a fact this will make me sound like what I actually am: a noob. But I don't mind. Please be gentle with your answers people :) I've had my 1JZ for about a year now in my 88. I love it. I've daily driven it ever since... I bought the 1JZ motor used with I-dont-know how many miles...

Sorry, I know this is a dumb question, but I was thinking of ordering my break "bands" online. I don't know if they're called bands in english, it's a literal translatio from spanish. I just don't wanna buy any cheap replacement ones that will start making a squeaking noise after a couple of...

Hello there. I've been away from this forum, which I used to read daily... the thing is, I did my 1JZ-GTE swap into my daily driver 88 Supra (on the outside converted to 89-92), but soon after that I got married, over 5 months ago. So, my priorities have changed a lot and I even thought of...

Heya. I have an '88, I bought the 91-92 speaker pods 2 months ago and they're lying around here. It's time for me to buy a pair of decent 6.5 inch round speakers and mount them.... the sound up front SUCKS in my car. I have two 6x9 Sony Xplod in the back (in the back of the rear sets, facing the...

Fellas, my car is barely UNDRIVABLE... wow am I gaining some muscle mass driving my 1JZ without power steering. It appears he pump is damaged, because all the fluid is there and the pulley is fine... can't be anything else, can it? Do you think Champion Toyota has it? Does any of you have a...

Anyone had this problem before? Water leaks into my left tail lights.. and I can already see the lower of the 3rd stripe getting a "green" color. I don't want to go through all the trouble of dismounting it.. is there a way to clean that, and dry it up, from the trunk? I should've used some...

Hello folks. I've been daily driving my 1JZ-GTE daily for a while now. Love it. I was thinking of maybe a little more power... The only upgrades I have are: HKS intake with very filthy filter (gonna buy a couple soon), and Tanabe exhaust (dunno which, as it came with the motor I bought). I...

Even with my previous cars, I've always done it this way: -Press the clutch pedal. -Press gas pedal to somewhere, dunno, 4k, 5k, whatever rpm. -Release clutch, and quickly, with that same foot (left), press brake pedal. That's easy. But a friend of mine tells me that it damages the...

I have an 88, which used to be 7M-GE automatic. Now it's 1JZ-GTE 5-spd. Can I upgrade to a 89+ style cluster? Specifically an European one?

I did my conversion a couple of months ago.. I only got the fog lights (euro), the turn signals (clear from procarparts.com), and the grills.... oh, and obviously the 89-92 style bumper (from a GA70 it said in eBay). I got no "metal supports" or panels to attach it or anything.. I actually left...

I bought my used motor and I'd like to change the spark plugs... where can I buy them online? What is the brand and model? Thanks in advance people! =)

My car was automatic and today I received a shift boot I bought off eBay. Finally, coz it's looking so ugly now with the manual shifter and no boot. Can't wait to install it. My question is... how is the lower (wider) part of the boot attached or held to the car? Do I need to glue it? Or is...

Fellas, I am a noob. That said... I just had my 1JZ swap done to my 88, they left the oil preassure gauge disconnected. I hate to see that needle in there, not reading anything, ACK. Anyways, I need a boost gauge and an oil preassure gauge. WHAT DO I NEED, EXACTLY? .. please tell me like...

My speedo isn't working. I have a 1JZ-GTE on my 88, it's a 5-spd of course, with 1JZ tranny. What speedo cable do I need to make it read the speed?? It reads nothing right now because I took the cable off (it was making noises... probably not lubricated, but i read about the lubrication thing...

Fellas, My swap is done. I drove my supra for the first time on saturday... I went from a 7M-GE automatic, to an 1JZ-GTE 5-sped... feels so smooth. Feels decently fast. I used to own a 300ZX TT which was faster than this, so.... but I'll eventually reach those HP. For now, it kics ass...
