    Anyone w/ a 1j swap w/out power steering?

    I had no PS this summer and have a small momo steering wheel. Like most people said already, it's fine everywhere but in slow driving conditions, then it's a bitch. If you had a choice though, i would say it's definately not worth it to not have it unless it's strictly a drag car. But mine is...

    Headlight problems

    Yeah, I have a similar problem. They always go all the way up, but when I shut them off they only go about half way down. I tried adjusting them, but I'm pretty sure the problem is electrical rather than the mechanical adjustment. Instead of putting them down manually, I shut them off, then...

    Why did YOU go 1JZ?

    You summed up my thoughts before I bought my jza70 quite nicely. This is my first summer with it and I am very happy. I'm moving to Calgary in September so maybe i'll have to look you up.

    blowing fuses

    The fuses for my fog lights, tail lights, and guage lights keep blowing. I changed them twice, but they only work for about 15 minutes before blowing again(all at the same time). I'm thinking there must be a short between them, but I can't find anything. Has this happened to anybody, or does...

    power steering pumps

    I'm still looking for a p/s pump for my 1jz, If anyone has any information on where I could get one (or a 2jz-gte pump) that would be great. I just don't want to buy the part from toyota unless I absolutely have to. Too much $$.

    HKS FCD

    Cutting the pink wire eliminates the 180 km/h governor, but doesn't solve any fuel cut issues. I was wondering if the FCD also gets rid of the governing in addition to fuel cut?

    Old school HKS turbo timer

    yeah I got one. It still has a digital display and push buttons of 1, 3, or 5 minutes. It does what it's supposed to.

    getting rid of cat

    I was thinking of taking off my cat and just putting a straight pipe in the place. Would the power gain be significant. Has anyone does this, and if so was it a good idea?

    power steering pumps

    My power steering pump called it quits, and I need a replacement. Anyone have one for sale. Also could someone confirm if the 2jz pump is the same, and if so is the installation the exact same as well. Thanks.

    anyone power steeringless?

    my power steering just quit working last week. I think it might just be a clogged line though but i'm not sure. Anyways, I think it is pretty damn annoying driving in the city at slower speeds. I definately enjoy the power steering much more. I want to get it fixed ASAP. I have 245's on...
