    Timing Issues [SOLVED]

    Sorry for the part about checking the ballancer and your post about checking it already. You posted that while I was typing mine and I was preoccupied by the TV while I was posting. Sorry about that. Hope you didn't think I was comming off as an A-hole about the verbage usage of advanced and...

    Low speed drivetrain shudder

    Do you notice it more-so while turning? If so then I'd suspect the diff being real tight and not allowing much slippage. It should go away pretty quickly unless it was built way to tight. If you notice it while going straight, then I doubt it would be the diff unless the bearings are...

    Pasenger side window issue

    Do you know if the car has an aftermarket alarm with a window modual? If it does, I'd suspect a bad window modual (mine did that but it would roll down both all the way at random)... If it doesn't, then I really couldn't tell you except maybe a problem in the window regulator.

    Timing Issues [SOLVED]

    Ok, first off just to clarify advanced and retarded ign being that your post has contradicting verbag. If your timing is advanced, it is BTDC (Before Top Dead Center) and if your timing is retarded, it is ATDC (After Top Dead Center). You say its advanced 10-15* advanced (after TDC) but...

    education wanted: ddp, recirculated dp?

    Gaboon's answer to the Divorced is pretty much hitting the nail right on the head. The differance is although minimal on all but the most extreme power setups. Yes there is a differance, but it is minimal. As for the Recirculate aspect with a divorced setup, as it was stated, its more for...

    Question to the wise ones

    As Kevin said, there is no IAC flange on the Ebay one, but that could be added easily if you know someone with an A/C TIG. The Volocity stacks in it arent the greatest. Yes they are better then none but thier radius looks tiny in the pics that they have. oh and some form of cable support bracket...

    My flushmounts and how I did it

    Your welcome man... Is that who you got yours through?? I've got a set of the 60mm moduals that I was thinking of doing the same thing with but I think they are gonna be a bit too big. Im actually thinking of attemping to build up blisters on the headlight cover so that way the Polycarbonate...

    Bryan's 1uz twin turbo build

    Sounds like the solinoid is stuck and yes it does suck to change the starter on them. Did you buy a used starter or new or remand? Id be taking it back and raising hell and trying to get a labor claim for your time if it was a new or remand unit...

    1UZ into my MKIII

    Well after much continplation, Im probably going to sell the my UZ powered Supra.... I've had the car for almost 8yrs now and Im getting board with it. I thought the V8 swap might have helped and although it is a totally different animal to drive, its still the same car to me. The only problem...

    Confused

    Forcedtorque stated it pretty well. Each have there area of merit and faults. About the only true simularity between the two engines is they both have 6 cylinders, 24 valves and two cams oh and they were both made by toyota. Basically when it comes to choosing between swapping to a 1JZ or...

    Stolen Car Treads and forceful viewing

    To start with, I do think it is a really good idea of doing this type of thing, but at the same time I think that the "Supramania would like you to view this thread" thing should be regional and not the entire community. Like I said, I do think its a great idea but Its a pain when I log in...

    how can i remove the crank pulley bolt in an auto?

    A long breaker bar and socket that fits the bolt (22mm IIRC). Place the breaker bar so its under the car to the drivers side and make sure its not going to catch anything on its way to the ground. Remover the spark plugs (so your not fighting compression) and bump the starter. I've usually had...

    550cc Injectors...

    This is pretty much exactly why the Lex AFM setup works... For those wanting to know, NO, The 1UZ V8's did not ever come with 550's... The stock 1UZ injectors are only 250's... Who ever told who ever that they came with 550's does not know what they are talking about and dont listen to them...

    SySt's Build up

    Luke, about the LC1 question, are you asking if you could use both channels setup to output a simulated NB signal? If that is what you are asking, then yes you could do that. Both outputs can be programed to output whatever you want the to.

    1UZ Supra swap

    Damn mike, It cost you almost 5g's for the engine swap???? That doesn't make sense. Or is that including other stuff not related to the swap? Hell, mine didn't even cost half that much and I have my headers that I built and my stand alone.
