    JDM engine site recommendations

    UPS is dicking me around. My engine won't be in until tomorrow but I'll post pics up as soon as I get them.

    JDM engine site recommendations

    People have had mixed results with 1JZ's from Osaka. Their customer service sucks but they're very cheap. I paid $1050 shipped to my door. They're supposed to include a rear sump, auto trans, uncut harness, ecu, ignitor, and map. Mine is supposed to be here today so I'll post later tonight on...

    Poll: Pick a color for my Supra.

    Since we're throwing different shades of blue out there, take a look at the Daytona Blue Metallic on 350Z's. It's bright and deep at the same time. I work for NAPA and you can get the paint in any shade you want, it's all how they mix it. I'm personally painting my car DBM with a little extra...

    Masterpower Turbos The Lowdown Straight From The Dealers Mouth!

    Do you guys have any plans in the near future for a divided T4 housing? I've seen only T3's with divided housings in the catalog. I really want the top end of a T4 but since it'll be on a 1JZ I figured going divided would help with the spool. If not, what would you recommend for a 1JZ with all...

    1jz clips are gone?

    I'm also looking for a 1JZ. Contacted JHot and got the same response, nothing. Contacted Jarco and was told they have nothing and aren't importing engines anymore. Looks like it's now or never if you want a 1JZ.

    What are your Supra goals?

    400+rwhp and be able to still get 28+mpg on the highway for weekend trips. Sounds like 1JZ+Single for me.

    Before and After Marlin Crawler Shift Busings

    I've got to say that never in my life have I seen that much play on a shifter in gear. Is this normal for worn out bushings or was yours just a bad example with completely shot bushings? My car had 210,000mi on it when I bought it and it was tight as can be. The PO must have replaced them.

    Any 1j guys with shaftmaster shafts?

    That's good to know. So it's safe to assume the JZ engines are slightly longer than the 7M and the bellhousing makes up for that difference.

    Any 1j guys with shaftmaster shafts?

    I thought if you were using the R154 for your swap you could use the original Turbo driveshaft meaning they're the same?? If this isn't correct could somebody please chime in as I'm going to be doing the same thing as the OP soon.

    XO2 Throttle Bodies???

    I've searched around and suprisingly can't find anything about these on here. I noticed them on EBay a few weeks ago. They're throttle bodies from XO2 that claim to be direct fit for 1JZ, 2JZ, and 7M. They also claim to use the stock TPS and vacuum lines. They have them in 65mm, 70mm, 80mm, and...

    Is this ECU upgraded?

    No, I bought it in Georgia but the p.o. moved there from Ohio so it's not completely out of the question.

    Is this ECU upgraded?

    The square chip has D151801-3040 7433-1008 on it. The large rectangle one has TYS 0111 97139133238. The rectangle to the right is too tough to see. I searched the net for Reg Reimer and it looks like it may be his work, but if it is it must be from before they had spacers to make for a...

    Is this ECU upgraded?

    Thanks guys. I figured it was but don't know that much about ECU's. How common are these and are they worth much more than a stock ECU? If it's set up for 550's, how big of an injector would it allow with a SAFC or other piggyback without going standalone? I'm going JZ so I won't be needing it...

    Is this ECU upgraded?

    I should have called it ECU and not CPU in the title. Figured I'd throw that in there before someone corrects me... So I began tearing apart my '87 Turbo today and ran across a curious part. They guy I bought the car from had already done a lot of mods and when I took the CPU out the top of...

    Stumbling at cruise

    If it's happening ONLY when you have the CRUISE CONTROL on check your speedometer. Mine was jumpy from the cable being bad and that made my car think I was going faster, slower, faster, slower, and the car would be on the power and off the power trying to compensate. Just a thought...

    POLL: Color of your supra

    Yeah, that doesn't look like the maroon on my car at all. It looks 10 times better!

    How many supras do you own/ have you owned

    2 A '87 Turbo Hardtop (shitty burgandy) and a '90 Targa NA (navy blue). The '87 is my DD and the '90 is a 1JZ project that'll hopefully be completed by August 16th (Woodward D.C.).
