    Flywheel 2jzgte

    ^^^ idk.... first off is it a w58 or R154? if it's a w58 then you will need a flywheel from a 1jzge or 2jzge (same) but if your using the R154 then you will need a gte flywheel. another words, no you cannot use a flywheel form a 7m on a jz style engine...

    Idle issue

    had the same issue, mine would sometimes die if i went into nuetrel form driving on the freeway. so rpms around 3500 - 4000. also would hesitate on WOT around 3000 rpm all the way. and idle when warm (sometimes) would be at spec 650. i replaced the iscv and it solved the problem.
