If you find oil in the front of the engine its probably not a bad idea to reseal the front all at once. I would just go ahead and do everything. Valve Cover Gaskets(make sure to use FIPG where its needed on the front and rear caps) Cam Seals Front Crank Seal Timing Belt(with cam seals)...

I checked the parts website i have an apparently Aristo hoses are the same as the MK4 hoses but the MK4 is rear sump and has the same turbos. I cant figure out how they use the same hoses if the drain pipe is in a differnt place since the Supra and Chaser 1JZs use different pans and different...

Well im nearing the end of my 1JZ Corolla swap and im having a really annoying issue with the turbo oil drain hoses. My 1JZ came from a Supra (rear sump pan) and i switched to an Aristo Pan(front sump pan) with an Aristo turbo oil drain pipe(that bolts into the oil pan). My problem is i cant...

Got a 1 Ton toyota truck G code 8 inch rear with soon to be installed MK3 LSD. And ok so what hose or line did you guys use to connect the fuel filter to the fuel rail if you eliminate the damper. You would need a hose with 2 banjo ends long enough to reach. And for those who did leave the...

Ok here is my issue. Im planning on running an AE86 GTS EFI fuel tank with my car. It will have an IS300 fuel pump(only 8 bucks thats why im running it) intank. From the tank im stumped. One problem im having is with the pulsation damper. When i got the motor i didnt even know what this thing...

i saw a TE37 Corolla with flares, a 77 MX32 Cressida that looked like it rolled off the assembly line. It was IMMACULATE. No oil leaks it looked brand new. Also saw a MK1 Supra once. And ive seen a couple of Datsun Fairlady roadsters.

Wow that does fit really nice. The good thing is the stock Corollas rad outlet sits perfect with the 1jz so i dont have to do any serious odding like that. One things that kicking my ass is where the hell my intake is going to go.

It will most likely be a weekend car. But it will hopefully be daily driver material

I apologize i cant even remember why i did that. As far as the TE and AE go. They are 95% the exact same car. Looking underneath the 2 on a lift it would be extremely hard to tell which is which. As far as chassis strengthening im not going to do too much. I may put some reinforcement bars...
