it's a -4, I just zoomed in really far. and no, it's not touching the hot side. I just pushed it out of the way for the picture.

Flood the basemet :) Of course, maybe you'll get a fish infestation.

I actually put a blob of silicone in it :)

There you go. Every Toyota I've driven you need to do this :)

The oil feed plate came bolted when I got it :dunno:

I don't know. The turbo spews a ton of oil about 5 minutes after I cold start it, and I'm always in traffic when it happens, and it stops before I can get somewhere to pull off, so I'm not sure if it's leaking from there. It's leaking from somewhere, I just don't know where. I emailed...

So, I was doing a little work under the hood of my car, checking my IC piping and such, and noticed this on my turbo: (linked due to size) http://offsite.lostjournal.com/rob/Supra%20Pics/gt40%20hole.JPG It's a hole in the casting right by the oil feed. Is this a problem? Would this explain my...

Calgary!

yeah, look at your turbo. I know for garrett's (Tx, GTx), typically the feed in the top is a 1/8" NPT thread, while the drain is a standard garrett drain. (So you just get a standard garrett to NPT adaptor at Summit) the 1JZ (and 2JZ) block use a 12x1.25mm threaded oil feed, and a standard...

I have a really nice HKS T3 manifold with a T4 flange welded over top of the T3 flange. The manifold is not a restriction in my setup at all. It actually works pretty well.

He wanted spool. even my cammed 1JZ with a GT4088 (smaller than the GT4294 by a fair bit) hit full boost at like 4600rpm.

bolt-on 6-speed.

loctite will seal it.

The 1JZ sender is a big socket, I think 22 or 24mm.

yeah, undo the 4 bolts holding down the two straps for the rack, and pull the old bushings out. You can do it from underneath the car.

Correct. There is a speedo cable that runs from the transmission up to the gauge cluster for the speedo. Then, there's an electronic pickup in the speedo which sends a signal back to the ECU. Without the speed signal, the ECU doesn't know when to shift gears. IIRC the speedo cable is one...

I have my sensor tee'd into the oil feed for the turbo. On cold idle, I get about 60psi, dropping to 15psi when it warms up. When cruising, it's usually about 75psi when cold, and about 50-60psi warm. I've never had the pressure go past 75psi though, on either my 1JZ, or 2JZ bottom end. I...

d'oh. I missed the part that he's running ARPs. Yeah, the 90 degree part is designed to stretch the bolts a little bit to allow them to hold a little better. ARPs don't stretch. They just need a little more torque. Still do it over though. You DON'T want to be re-torquing the bolts while the...

I've heard the oil galleys are smaller on the GE motors, but I think I'm thinking of newer GE motors (like newer IS300s and such).

Ok, I speak from experience when I say this: Do it over again. The 90 degree is important. I forgot to do that, and my flywheel came loose. It seriously takes you like 20 minutes to just do it over now.
