    Single turbo 1jz vs. GTR

    Not sure what garrett its actually based off of. It is specifically the VRP61s that I got from a vendor here on SM. Its a .7 ar. It is pretty responsive, you don't have to wait forever for boost to come on. I made 385whp and 365?tq not sure on that tq number but it was +-5 from that, at only...

    The "NOT SO GOOD" gas mileage thread

    I'm running my 1jz with sequential injection now on a 2jz ecu and haven't seen much improvement in gas mileage, just a definite improvement in drivability. I don't think batch injection has much to do with poor mileage.

    New Carbon Lineup @ Extreme Dimensions

    That hood fitment looks horrible. I spent some good money on a VIS hood back in the day and it seemed to fit better than that and I still sent it back because it just looks trashy. You shouldn't be able to stick your finger into the engine bay with the hood closed ;)

    The "NOT SO GOOD" gas mileage thread

    I also have always got shitty gas mileage. My friend with almost the same setup got like 27mpg and I am fully tuned getting like 19, I don't get it. I did get 23 once, oddly enough it was on the caravan to 2k9 where we were all cruising about about 90. I guess thats the sweet spot for my car lol.

    JZA70 Vented brakes

    He isn't talking about the veins in the rotor. It is vented between the hub and the actual rotor, as well as between the two braking surfaces.

    Looking for Single Turbo 1JZ Vids

    Same car as the first one. I guess I'm the only one that films in their car! http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=100842

    2jz na-t 500-600rwhp help

    600whp through e85 is WELL PAST 1 walbro. You probably couldn't break 350hp on just 1. I'd say dual or triple even to be safe. 1000cc is good for around 650hp through e85 IIRC.

    Turbo Timer

    You don't need a turbo timer, just don't shut the car off if you have just boosted, no biggie. It really is never actually needed you can just use your head.

    which one of you lucky ladies is mine?

    Like I said... number 7! http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/cto/1296408622.html It looks clean too.

    Switch spring rates on Megans ?

    I'm about to do the same thing, but only in the rear. I'm going to try and go with a 10k rear and stick with the 18 up front. My main problem with the car is it tends to oversteer a bit to easily, not that the ride is too harsh. So I'm going to try just bumping down the rear and it should help...

    solid motor mounts?

    I've noticed most people that hate solid mounts have some major issues elsewhere that cause some serious vibration when the stock mounts aren't there to absorb it. I've ran solid mounts for years and my car is extremely smooth, much smoother than several stock mount cars I've ridden in. If...

    Pulling the JZ

    DON'T INSTALL THE ALUMINUM CRANK PULLEY. They can cause some major problems. Search on the subject and you'll see. As for cleaning up the engine bay, there isn't a ton you can do if you're still on stock twins other than do a wiring tuck job with is a ton of work and takes some creativity for...

    1j starts for only a second!!

    My guess is ECU as well. Its always a problem with these cars! If you can swing it, take the little extra time to swap to a 2jz ecu so you never have to deal with it again and can enjoy vastly improved driveability :)

    Code 42 !!!

    My car has been doing the same thing ever since I swapped to an aristo 2j ecu. I don't know why its doing it. My friend has almost the exact same setup yet he doesn't throw the code. I noticed it only does it when I'm boosting.. which could very well mean whenever its over 4k or so.

    1jz intake mani removal

    Yeah It takes me a good 30-40 minutes to get it all off, and most of that is fighting with my 3" IC pipe since I have a koyo and hydrofan. I would NEVER pull the motor for the intake manifold lol! Once you get all the connectors memorized you can move through it pretty quick since you know all...
