I actually picked up the single from Tim, its a Garret T3 60-1. I was missing the oil lines and downpipe, so I couldnt get everything installed. I needed a car asap. But maybe go single before the Centralia meet! Thanks, I look foward to meeting you too.

Is anyone meeting up in the Everett area? This is my first Centralia meet so I'm not sure where to go. I heard of a Tacoma mall crew meeting at 11AM. So we'd have to leave Everett by 10:30. Just got my 1J running so I'm excited. May go single before the meet... not sure yet.:evil2: - Josh...

I finished the 7mk2 over a couple of weekends, the car was incomplete inside and out, I was chasing relays, and wires that were missing. :3d_frown: Learned my lesson though... never mess with an unfinished/stripped car, especially if you don't know where everything goes.:cry:

nice car, and garage. pre-89 FTW!

Happy? hope you're not 56k. lolz. nice cressida, I want one one day... let me know if you need any parts, I have the most random things, I needa get rid of as long as you're willing to pick it up. lolz.

more pics Where the magic happens what are those green things? my buddy nick. I'll try getting pics of the finished product with piping and all that good stuff this weekend... Maybe even a few videos.. :evil2: Thanks to all who contributed, my cousin Nelson, Nick...

Scrubbing bubbles FTW! me cousin 2" hole just big enough to widen the speedo hole. MOTOR IN! Very close to firewall on turbo side. :icon_evil shoulda made use of the hammer before we put the motor in... Harness came out almost right behind the heater core(near the...

For verification pictures... old bellhousing does not fit!!! No shaft play! YAY! tiny bit of oil build up... normal...

So, I finally found the time to start the 1J this weekend. I'm just really tired, got her finished in 3 days, my fastest swap thus far and most rewarding. :naughty: I started working on her Saturday evening, finished this morning... How? did I do that? Let's just say, sleep wasn't a...

Hmm... have you checked the compression? easy to do... worse case is a huge hole in your piston. happened with my Z. :o

So the Mk2 is finally running! but theres a really high idle issue. that wasnt present before removal from the MK3. So, I got her running by bypassing the fuel pump and running 12V constant to it at turn on. I was going to replace the fuel pump, but realized its an external pump (1983). Once...

Well, I'm a little stuck on the Mk2 at the moment, the amount of time I during my break was very minimal. Everything is routed and finished except for the fuel line to the engine. I left that out to purge the tank and to see if the pump still works----- and what do you know, it doesnt work. For...

I agree with you all and made the same arguments, but whatever, my 1jz bellhousing is already on its way. When I do my swap, I'll try lining the two bellhousings up with the motor and take some pics to confirm.

Has anyone gotten away with using the stock 7m R154 bellhousing? I just talked to this guy who just completed his 1j-ma70 swap and he said he reused the stock bellhousing. He claimed it fit and it bolted right up. He said he used a 1jz starter.... I've read time and time again that a 1J...

The MK3 is on hold for now until I get the MK2 out of the way. The motor is coming from my MA70 (up above) and I'm doing the swap for my coworker. So far, the motor has been prepped and dropped into place. All that's really left is wiring :cry: plumbing, driveline and exhaust. Im on the...

The MA70 1988 5spd NA Got her locally from a person on craigslist for 500 without a motor. Maroon leather interior. Pretty clean for the price, no major dents or dings - average condition for a 20 year old Washington car. I found a donor 1987 Turbo Supra and swapped the JDM motor, tranny...

Now that Spring break is here, and I have some time, I've decided to post my first build thread. I've been on SM for a few years now, and the network is great, just met a few inspiring local SM members Nate, Ron, Tom, Duane, and a few others here in WA... First off, I would like to introduce...

Looks even better in person... :love: Hey Ron, I finally found your thread. muhahaha... I'm not even sure if you remember me, I picked up that 1j from Nate, and you would probably recognize my forum name. But, yah, hope all is well. Again, your work is amazing. -Josh

Just added some pictures to help. I havn't seen the turbo in person, just curious whether its worth a trip to take a look at.
