    Conversion from 1JZ Intake Manififold to 7M

    You can use a JZ upper manifold, but the lower manifold either has to be made especially. The port sizes differ. You'll need to make the lower manifold from both the 7M and JZ intake flanges, and make sure the angle is correct. Suruko had one made especially, you might want to ask him about it.

    Replacing 7M-GE with 2JZ-GE

    Roger - other than you, there are very few people who would bother with 'upgrading' to a 2JZ-GE for a measly 30hp. Considering the expense and the work involved - 99.9% of people would go for the GTE option, which is precisely WHY you're finding a lack of information on it.

    Replacing 7M-GE with 2JZ-GE

    Roger - if you want to cut and splice, go ahead, ignore my recommendation. You'll find out it's more hassle than just de-pinning. Yes, a table like that would work, but add a third column as to what the wire is FOR, because there are going to be at least two wires that have the same colour code...

    Replacing 7M-GE with 2JZ-GE

    While i wouldnt say it's impossible to get it done over a weekend - the only thing that could stop you, would be the wiring harness. It's simple enough to do if you take your time over it - especially if you had a spare 7M harness you could pinch the connectors off before hand, so you can repin...

    CPS question

    No problem - not really much of a PS3 gamer (PC Gamer, yes, but i suck with a controller), it's used as a media centre, pretty much.

    CPS question

    Look at the IG section, page 16 - it states: Resistances should be between 140 and 180 ohm.

    Bearing clearances and crank polishing

    Use the Toyota Select fit bearings, if the crank comes back and the clearance isn't in spec.

    Hello from Augusta, GA

    All turbo's use the karmann vortex meter. N/A's use the Bosch Flap style meter.

    What was the very first car you ever owned?

    1990 Ford Escort Bonus 90 Except mine had filler on the front drivers side fender, and the passenger side fender was a badly fitted pattern part in primer. The door on the drivers side didn't work and i didn't have a key to unlock the fuel filler cap. Had a blown headgasket, and had mayo in...

    Replacing 7M-GE with 2JZ-GE

    I know Roger from the UK forum. Don't give him too hard a time over here guys, he probably needs a sanctuary away from some of the...people...that dwell over there! If he wants to go and do a GE swap instead of a GTE swap, rather than starting an argument on the subject, stick to answering the...

    Replacing 7M-GE with 2JZ-GE

    Also note that 2JZ-GE heads differ greatly from the 2JZ-GTE heads in terms of manifold connections. Pretty sure the cams are sufficiently different too. About the only commonality is the block, and the GE has no oil squirters or oil return line for a turbo. Swapping over 7M electronics? Whilst...

    Replacing 7M-GE with 2JZ-GE

    I still don't understand your bizarre, irrational hatred for turbocharged engines, but the advice i'm going to give is this: If you have the later style round mounts, the engine will bolt in fine. Use your existing W58 transmission with a 2JZ W58 bellhousing. As for wiring, it's not too much of...

    It's here! Part Shop Max!

    A product that has the (intended?) effect of causing bent suspension arms is, in my opinion, pretty damn poor - and for what purpose? Certainly not handling. That is, after all, why coilovers exist - for handling. My HSD's are perfect. My car is already a little TOO low, if anything. Going any...

    It's here! Part Shop Max!

    ...i honestly don't know what people see in being 'slammed', just screws up the suspension setup and leads to a crap ride. Add stretched tyres to that, and you're not just an idiot, but a dangerous idiot. :nono:
