You can get adapter plates made up pretty easily to put a 2JZ upper manifold onto the 7M lower runners (1JZ wouldn't be that hard either). I think there was a guy trying to do a group buy on them a few months ago.

get a multimeter, and make sure the signals are coming out of the ECU for the injectors. That'll save you from ripping apart the harness. It's possible that one of the cam position sensors is not functioning properly, but that would probably throw a code. It's also possible that the 12V line...

Guy gets tattoo done at shady overseas tattoo place, he draws what he wants, they interpret the titles of the pages "Left arm", and "Right Arm" as part of the tattoo. They also mis-spell "Day" as "Gay"

I have a box of Montecristo #4 from Cuba sitting in my humidor right now. One of my favorite. I haven't had a cigar in like 2 months.....

that looks so fake.

Correct. It would suck in more air, and cause your car to idle slightly higher than it would without the valve. You are also correct that the car expects this in a stock system.

BAD-ASS!

Pull engine and tranny as one unit, separate outside of engine bay. 10x easier than taking the tranny out in the car.

No such thing as metered air on a 1JZ :) I like the setup though. I'm going to copy it, and use it on my car. Edit: I just had a crazy idea. Drain the catch can into the oil pan so all the condensed oil just goes right back into the engine :)

IMO, Bosch is more reliable than Walbro. Bosch is used as an OEM pump in a lot of cars. The 044 is a big pump (340lph), but they do have smaller ones, like the 040. I believe the 044 is OEM in a lot of the newer porsches. Walbros are the standard mainly just because they're so cheap. They're...

An IC is a decent upgrade, but cams will make more of a difference. I would suggest upgrading cams before IC. Like I've said before. A local guy and I both had similar mods, except I had cams, and he had IC. I ran 3 tenths faster than him in the 1/4 the same night.

Does it even have a battery?

Maybe the 2nd car went to grandmas, went home again, then went to grandmas again, adding another 26mi onto the trip. You never said they couldn't backtrack.

Just feel proud you don't have to Rent-to-own a $100 house.

Reg Reimer usually organizes a cruise in the spring/summer. Usually it's a pretty decent turnout of MKIIs, MKIIIs, and MKIVs. Other than that, we could definitely do an ASC BBQ.

I had a cheap "greddy" FPR (99% sure it was an ebay knockoff) that would have a tendency to actually stick closed. My fuel pressure ran like 60psi all the time. That's when I ditched it, and bought an HKS FPR instead. I would be interested to see how this XS power turns out though...

I hear that. Except I have the second pump, I'm just too lazy to install it :)

My tuner sat in the car, and tuned mine down to -20C :) It'll start in -35C pretty easily too.

Internal wastegate simply means the wastegate is part of the exhaust housing of the turbo, as opposed to being a separate unit. They function the same. Custom oil lines are EASY. Cut hose to size, put fittings on end, bolt into place. It would be more work to modify stockers to fit.

Why not? Last time I tried, they seem to fit fine. 2JZ cams don't fit in the 1JZ head because one of the journals is too narrow on the 1JZ head for the cam. This means a 2JZ head has a journal a little wider than the 1JZ cam, which would work fine.
