    What happens at 2000rpms?

    As it could be a fuel related problem because of that's what was changed the last the following question comes to mind: Did you do the 12v mod already ?

    Few simple Lexus AFM questions

    ^ That is the correct way to set it up. Get the right combination of the afm screw and the base pressure to make the idle/cruise like stock and VF within spec. Then tune your open loop sutiations with the safc.

    tuing software advice...

    Yes you can run the factory ECU. No software needed. But if you don't know about this mod I strongly suggest you catch up on your reading on this topic. Search for "riemer mod" , "reg riemer" or "lexriemer" for a lot of info. The lexafm/550cc combo will raise your fuelcut. You can run 16psi...

    tuing software advice...

    An upgraded AFM (Lexus V8 AFM, 1UZ-FE engine) and 550cc is a perfect combo for your needs. everything above the 550 will be less easy to tune and complete overkill for the speclist you mentioned. You won't have the direct need for a piggyback or programmable unit. Maybe an S-AFC but because of...

    Fluctuating Timing

    When you have the stock FPR there is no need for an AFPR. I had a similar problem once, I'll describe it but I doubt that this will solve your problem. What happened to me was I installed a new engine (7Mgte) in my friends supra and tried to set the timing, but it was way off the scale. So...

    Can I adjust greddy 2jz oil cooler for 7M-gte

    okay damn I think it just struck me when I was on my way home..... My perception of sandwich plate is wrong isn't it/ The smaller part is going on the block and the big part is the relocation part of the kit, and that is where the oil filter must go.....right ? man I feel stupid....

    Can I adjust greddy 2jz oil cooler for 7M-gte

    I was thinking, I can run one of the hoses from the sandwich plate to the remote adapter filter, and from there to the oil cooler and from the cooler back to the sandwich plate. That way I need to cap off two of the four holes on the sandwich plate and also plug the hole of the return line on...

    Can I adjust greddy 2jz oil cooler for 7M-gte

    Thanks Jdub for your answer. I've read the thread a few times already, and maybe it's the language barrier or maybe I don't know how to ask my question properly....or maybe I'm just plain stupid :P, but I can't seem to find my question answered in that thread. I've done some 7M rebuilds in the...

    Can I adjust greddy 2jz oil cooler for 7M-gte

    Hi guys, Last year I bought a 16-row greddy oil cooler with oil filter relocation kit. The guy I bought it from used it on his single turbo 2jz-gte engine but he sold the car and parts separately. As I needed to upgrade my oil cooling system I bought this in a heartbeat...

    safc hi and lo throttle setting

    It's not related to RPM. It's related to how far you push the pedal in. Push your gas pedal in half way, that will be 50% throttle. Why not related to RPM? Simple: For instance, you can floor the pedal (100%) in 5th gear and be at only 2500 rpm, but in 3rd gear at the same speed your RPM's...

    Just replace rod bearings and go ?

    Hey Dan thank you for your answer, I appreciate it. :) But the new clevites are not "real" clevite's anymore from what i've read, and I was wondering if the ones that are being sold now are much better than stock toyota bearings ? Any thoughts on that perhaps?

    Just replace rod bearings and go ?

    Kicking this topic back up as i've decided to rebuild the old 7M...again... So at first I will need to look at what made the engine knock in the first place. The engine got all new bearing just 30k kilometres back. The engine started to smoke badly the last few drives so maybe one of my...

    Help!!!!! I cant figure this overfuelling issue.

    You can pull the spark plug wire and hold it near the metal chassis of the car while the engine is running to check if there is a spark ?

    Stupid car problem. Answer.

    ^yes. Remember that the coil grouping order is different from the firing order. I've mixed them up once and got the exact same problem. Firing Order 1-5-3-6-2-4 1-5-3-6-2-4 Firing Groupings 1&6 2&5 3&4 1&6 2&5 3&4

    7mgte Dynoed Today

    Can I ask why you bought so many expensive stuff for performance while not having the block decked for just a little bit more money and work? You have a ticking time bomb on your hands with the stock head gasket. May I suggest you take everything apart while there is no damage to your engine...
