Pick up one out of an Acura Legend any year. 6 channel same ohms as the MkIV and about $15 at PicknPull.

Check your spark plug gap. My 2JZ does the same thing, its only really happy with around .025 gap.

I don't have my notes with me, but you use an NPN transistor with the B terminal connected to the 2JZ FPC terminal, C terminal to the ground side of the COR coil, and the E terminal is grounded to the chassis. The positive side of the COR coil goes to switched a 12V source. You should have a...

You can activate the fuel pump relay with the 2JZ ECU using a $1 transistor no need for something fancy.

The 272 BC make great power, but if I did it again I'd do the 264s. Reason 1 for a slightly better idle and gain some extra vacuum. I have problems with getting the heater valve to open on mine under cruise since installation. Plus mine seem to make great power in the 7000-7500 RPM range...

I'd do the 264s myself.

If you let the tranny drop down with out the mount the top 2 bolts and top starter bolt are a cinch. You just need about 3 ft worth of extension.

Unless you use adapters, which will force you to use high offset wheel (i.e. no lip), you'll find it cheaper to buy custom wheels that fit the 4 lug. A set of the 5 lug rear MS123 axles last time I checked were about $500 out of australia. Most of the front upgrades will force you into...

Make sure you buy lots of extensions and flex joints it will make the work much easier. The best way is to remove all the lower tranmission bolts you can get at easier then drop the back of the trans down and use about 4 ft of extensions to get the top bolts. Getting it in and out is really a...

I have. The Mk2 seats are much better than the Mk3 seats and about half the weight, heck the seats are probably the best feature of a Mk2. The only downside to the Mk2 seats is they cost a fortune to have a shop reupholster them and the seat backboard is tough to restore. BTW if you are...

Yes, the W58 will hold up if you don't abuse it. That car on ebay isn't in that great of shape. I'd say around 8k for it tops. The last really nice Mk2 on ebay was a 3k mile 85 that actually sold for 10k outside of ebay. About 12-13k is the absolute top market price for a Mk2 right now.

Worst I've ever seen is about 20 deg F over ambient at around 20 psi measured at the throttle body inlet. Just cruising around I'm within a couple of degrees. This on a GT35R, ebay side to side IC, and Ron's intake combo. 65+C is hot, are you sure you're not heat soaking the sensor from the...

You can forget that car. The seller wants 29k for it. And why would you want Mk3 seats in a Mk2?

Yep, join the club. I'm about 4 master cylinders in now at about 800 miles. I just had the snap ring pull off the clutch hub as well. Unfortunately nobody makes a readily available multi-plate for the M-series/R154 combo.

Pick'n'Pull and get an 83-85 Celica Cable (the ones with EFI).
