    Why is the 2jzgte so much better?

    Block material had NOTHING to do with the BHG issue.... :nono: If you're going to post things as fact please have something to back it up.

    Help! Helicoiled my head and the studs keep backing out!!!

    Just replied over on SF ;) So the original drilled/tapped hole for the Coil was too big/sloppy. Have a look for "KeenSerts" they're a thickwall repair so you can keep the stock studs and using locking pins so they can't back out. Bad news is usually when the Studs strip/pull threads it...

    Why is the 2jzgte so much better?

    miekedmr makes a good point as most of the failures I've had in the past 6 years have been in trying to get the reliability/longevity I desire at my Hp level and to suit my driving style/car use. Every single time I drive my car it will see a full boost pull to redline at least one (when it's...

    VSV How ImPortant are they?

    Of course it can be made to run without but it's more a case of people deleting parts with NFI what they do and what effects if any removing them will have for no better reason than "I don't like how it looks"

    jdm shit motor

    You're buying a 15 year old (at best) motor and expecting it to be a good runner? The ONLY reason JDM motors became popular was they're cheaper than a rebuilt motor for people on a budget and companies could get a higher price than the Scrap metal price. Expect the 7M's to dry up as China...

    Should I stay away from this 7M engine?

    Bare minimum should be a hardness test on the head if it's soft it's junk. (many are)

    Turbo Size psi/volume

    Do some reading on "Adiabatic Tables" I used to sit for hours doing Calculations and end up with pages of data to do Turbo/IC sizing. These days since BB turbo's and Chinese IC's it's much easier now it's a case of "1 BIG Turbo and 1 IC that fits the hole" = BIG bangs and lots of power and...

    Corrosion on spark plugs in JDM engine???

    I still don't get the whole JDM 7M thing..... It's at best a 15 year old motor guys it's NOT a low mile motor. You just all seem so surprised when you buy one of these things fit and it takes a dump a short time later... :nono:

    If injectors sit too long, will they go bad?

    Bigger issue would be sacked out valve springs from sitting compressed for so long. :( There will be at least a couple fully open.

    Why is the 2jzgte so much better?

    Larger bore diameter removes the Valve size restriction of the 7M. You can only fit xx valves in our motors and this becomes the hard limit for power potential. The JZ series is an evolution of the M's with all of the design compromises addressed and built as a Turbo motor not a Carb motor...

    what size tap for head bolts?

    You can coat the tap with grease that will help any chips/debris to stick to the tap (clean tap off between holes) The T handle is important as it stops you loading one side of the tap and removing parent metal. Noah: ;)
