Thank you for publishing this, taking the time to pull all the data together.
I have a 92, super red, turbo, 5 speed, shadow grey leather - now I know I am at least 1 of 100! Would you by chance have the breakdown of leather/cloth for this year and color?
Thanks!
From above - this is why your subframe is moving around-
shows that the spacers that came with the bushing set is too long. at 75mm, the ends are same level as the bushing ends, that means the poly bushes will not be compressed. So i got some one to cut all 6 spacers down by 2mm. The original...
You are correct - the same total torque
Please look at the torque curves, VVTI develops twice the torque earlier - WHERE YOU NEED IT
so all it does is adjust the timing - that is huge, please do not downplay VVTI
Would you mind posting some pics-
I would appreciate it as I am in the middle of the same swap, have a CX racing intercooler and pipes - would love some detailed pics on how to install.
Thanks

Yes it is ok to just leave the pump disconnected. On my new harness the pump is disconnected.

The got A/C sorted out
First the VVTI compressor will not accept the top piece from the from the 7m compressor. So I purchased a USDM 2jzgte A/C compressor from DM.
Next is to mount the...
Take it to a reputable machine shop and have the bottom end fully rebuild - That way they would measure the rod ends and the bearing sizes and determine what needs to be done - machining and bearing size wise.
maybe to far away, but I have very good experiance with:
Fischer Automotive Machine Inc
Auto Parts Store
Address: 73 Meadow Rd, Edison, NJ 08817
Phone:(732) 985-1323

First build thread
Member since prior to this server keeping track-
So, 10 years ago I came across a 92 in southern California. Bought it, shipped it back to NJ.
I was at the end of a BHG repair to a 88 - but it had rust and was not a long term project.
There is a very long story about the...
