    1JZ or 2JZ

    Sorry for the wrong section. That pretty much has me sold on a 1JZ. Truly, I'll be happy with 400 HP. 500? Awesome. 600? Kick ass. Any recomendations for where to source a 1JZ from? Tiger Japanese has them for 1000-1100.

    1JZ or 2JZ

    Aware that the 2JZ is MUCH more powerful. More intested in the swap aspects of it. Is one easier than the other? 1JZ's seem to be a tad cheaper(couple hundred bucks). The transmissions?

    Low/Sporadic Oil Pressure and Clicking/Tapping/Knocking

    Is this something a joe schmo can do in their garage or does it take specific equipment? It seems the oil pressure has been getting better, maybe the channels were sludged up and is just taking awhile for it to break apart? >hopes< Is it this...

    Or just drive it till it goes boom. Will it last me through winter you think? Drive like 100 miles a week. Then prepare for the 1JZ or 2JZ....haven't decided.

    Low/Sporadic Oil Pressure and Clicking/Tapping/Knocking

    Leak is coming from the exhaust header and somewhere by the cat. Atleast its not Lower end yet. To get rid of that knock, does that mean new valves, lifters, springs? Or Could i get away with just new springs(assuming one is weak causing the lifter to tap)

    Low/Sporadic Oil Pressure and Clicking/Tapping/Knocking

    Does it go into the head or into the right valve cover? Went to get lunch today and it seemed to stay at the right pressure longer...but the "sound" is still there.

    Low/Sporadic Oil Pressure and Clicking/Tapping/Knocking

    No Oil burning. Oil is at the perfect level. Where is the PVC hose located? As for the knock, Knock is different than a tap or a click correct? Will get a video in about an hour and a half and post it for your thoughts :P
