    1JZ and 2JZ fuel rails interchangeable?

    Any high wattage ~10ohm resistors work. The best place to get them would be a 7M resistor pack. You wire them in series with the black wires on the injectors. The black wires are 12V from the battery.

    1JZ stumbling/hesitation ADVICE?

    it's not vacuum operated on the 1JZ is it? I'm sure the 1JZ dashpot is a self-contained unit.

    good clutch?

    Exactly, clutches don't hold power, pressure plates to. An aftermarket clucth is only going to hold up to more abuse, that's about it. Stock clutch + aftermarket PP = holds lots of power Aftermarket clutch + aftermarket PP = holds lots of power and takes lots of abuse aftermarket clutch +...

    Rebuild/Change trim of stock 1jz twins

    Twins don't blow from boost, twins blow because that's just what they do. I ran 17psi on my twins with no problems until I went single.

    1jz Valve Clearance??

    To measure the clearance you need some feeler gauges. You only need to remove the valve cover to check clearance, however if you want to actually change the shims, you will need to remove the cams. Shims can be bought at any Toyota dealership. They're the same as 2JZ shims. I believe some Yamaha...

    RHD MkIII Reverse EL Gauges

    No. I'm a broke university student with no money to buy things like gauge faces. If I ever get some money together, I'll get them.

    MAYBE DUMB QUESTION..

    Do you have a JZA70, or a 1JZ Swapped MA70? Because the JZA70 gauge is NOT in PSI, it's in x100mmHG. (10psi ~ 600mmHG) You can only get to about 14psi before you hit boost cut. Do yourself a favor, and instead of getting a boost controller, simply get a less restrictive intake and exhaust...

    GT3076R good turbo for the 1jz?

    There are some dynos of it around on the internet. I know I've seen it (It was in a Japanese car mag), but I can't remember what it looked like.

    Normal 1j Oil Pressure

    You know, I thought of that shortly after I posted :) Maybe we should post what sort of oil we have to go along with the numbers... Or just be happy that we don't have oiling problems.

    Tach - 2jz swaps

    The 1JZ tach gets its signal from the black/red wire on the igniter. You most likely tapped into one of the control lines, and thus are getting exactly 1/6 the signal you should be getting.

    1JZ and 2JZ fuel rails interchangeable?

    2JZ-GTE injectors will drop into the 1JZ rail (2JZ-GTE = 550cc), the injector clips are different, but you can make them fit with slight modifications. You need to wire in some resistors to the injectors as 2JZ are low impedance where the 1JZ expects high impedance.

    Photo Shoot of my new(er) Saab 9-3

    My dad has a '95 9000 Turbo. That's what I learned to drive on more or less. Saab has some pretty surprising motors. 2.3L I4, stock is like 200hp, and 240ft/lb. One of the few cars I've seen with an electronic boost controller integrated into the ECU. They have a wastegate spring set at like...

    question bout rims

    Mitsu runs 5x114.3 on the Eclipse. They never came in 18s though, so I'm guessing they're aftermarket. Stock offset is +46mm. Assuming the 18s fit on the Eclipse, they should fit on the Supra too (we fit MKIV wheels which are +50mm)

    what do your parents do with you and your car?

    I work with a guy who used to have this Prelude with a bunch of money in it. He sold it, and bought this POS 87 Turbo (rust holes, peeling paint, etc), and he absolutely loves the car.

    Tell you what, I'll throw some slicks on my car in the spring, take it to the track, and pump 500whp through it. When it snaps, I'll send it right to you :)
