    Walbro vs. Denso

    Another contender is the Bosch 044. Flows more than the walbro and denso, and is reasonably priced.

    Where is the best place to get the oil return adaptor to the block??

    Yup, get the ARZ aluminum fitting, available from several of the vendors (like driftmotion)

    :1zhelp: 1jz single turbo question

    http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e74/krishneel2/DSCN0423.jpg In this picture, isn't it the part of the wastegate with the valve that is supposed to bolt to the manifold? And on a side note MAKE SURE you change the angle of your turbo, the drain is supposed to be straight down, and the feed at...

    :1zhelp: 1jz single turbo question

    Haha, I feel your pain. But you'll be much better at it if you're forced to do it again! In the end modifying the wastegate placement will be much better, and everything will be done right, instead of extending the DP to make up for bad wastegate placement and having to worry about melting...

    :1zhelp: 1jz single turbo question

    I would modify the manifold and wastegate before messing with the DP. moving the DP further back would probably place it way too close to your firewall, and likely touch your speedometer cable causing it to melt and break.

    :1zhelp: 1jz single turbo question

    Can you post up some pics? Are you asking if it is okay to have your wastegate dump like right back onto your exhaust manifold? I had my wastegate dump back down onto the downpipe/firewall area for a couple weeks while I found a dump tube and had the fitting welded and I didn't have a problem...

    hydrolock

    I have experience with the fuel one... bad wiring causing injectors to stick open. Luckily it happened while the car was sitting so I found out by cranking the car with a weak battery. Just freed everything up, drained the oil, replaced the filter, fixed the injector problem, and I was good to go.

    Speed vs. RPM Calculator

    Here is a very cool program I use that gives you a bunch of cool info, and already has the R154, v160 and many other transmissions loaded into it for your selection. http://www.locost7.info/gearcalc.php

    Stinger thread....

    Off... I tried several spots between -12.0 and -13, and there was no good point, it would either not cut fuel under decel, or it would cut fuel and not catch itself at idle and the car would die when I put the clutch in. My tuner and I needed to drive to the shop and get some dyno time so we...

    Stinger thread....

    I got 14-15mpg on my last tank, barely any boosting. AFR's at cruise are decent enough but I can't seem to get decel fuel cut to where it is supposed to be, and it just isn't running smooth enough to where I feel the car is being efficient.

    Help picking a wastegate

    Got mine locally new for 325 :P I wouldn't bother with an adapter piece for the flange, just get the flange that comes with the tial and have them weld it on there so everything is how it should be :)

    Car Smokes Like a Freight Train!

    Well check for oil on both, but he is talking about exhaust.

    A norwegian single-turbo MKIII 2JZ build

    Looking like a great list there, only thing I don't think is completely covered is fuel. Is your 2j coming with 550cc or 440cc injectors? You're going to be able to max out the 550cc injectors and one walbro pump with a 2j and a 66mm turbo. I'm doing it now on a 1j with a 61mm on pump gas :)

    Tachometer peaking and holding

    sounds like the needle is on crooked? if it gets to a certain part of its oscillation then it is touching the tach face and will tend to stick. I would take the cluster out real quick and verify that instead of messing with all the electronics.

    LSD (differential!)questions.

    The NA's had 4.3x's not 4.11, the 4.1 is the torsen differential. Easy way to find out if you have an LSD is by jacking up the car by the rear dif. You can look at the dif and it should have an LSD sticker on it. However the sure way to check is to spin one of the rear tires while it is off...

    Dual Exhaust 1JZ

    I'm not trying to be rude... but if you don't have the money to do it right, just don't do it at all. This is a severe problem in the Mk3 community! The stock y pipe and dp isn't going to kill you, and you can run on that until you save the small amount of money to get the 3" y pipe and dp from...

    1JZ Single Turbo MKIII Dyno Tune

    His name is Dat, haha. Yeah I think I'm getting killed by my exhaust... and I have a 2.5" 90 degree coupler coming off the turbo that is kind of kinked due to space. The dyno showed me a few low points on the car, I'm going to have to get everything leveled out so I can really put down some...
