    Anyone running aftermarket cam gear covers on their 2JZ?

    Anyone with a 2JZ running a clear or CF cam cover on theirs? I want mine covered up while still keeping the custom stainless valve cover piece on top of the motor, and I'd like to see what others are doing to cover up their timing belts and cams in the front. I was thinking about going either...

    Best place to take mkiii supra for repairs.

    You guys are lucky out on the left coast to have places like Kaizen and DM. Here in VA there are very few shops I know of or trust for my Supra. I don't know of Va BEach area, but Richmond/Central VA there is almost nothing here. I am, however, VERY FORTUNATE to have Seth Ingham of Sleeper...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Are you doing big brakes next or have you done yours already? After my 2JZGTE vvti is done it will be time for bigger wheels, bigger shoes, and better stopping power. Beefing up the A340 auto tranny next, then paint and interior will be dead last. Definitely recommended for these engines.

    when civic owners meet supras

    The last week before I dropped off my Supra for the engine swapout, a couple of Hon-duh kids near where I lived met me as I was coming out of a 7-11 and asked me about my car. When I told them it was an '87 Supra, one of them snorted and said "Are you Fast, or Furious?" I just shook my head and...

    Your other car

    My wife has an '08 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, and I have a DD '93 Volvo 940 turbo along with the Supe. The 940t I purchased for $800 with a seriously wicked boost leak and replaced one rubber hose to get her to run like a scalded dog. A couple rad hoses, a batt, and the second set of tires from...

    Videos! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbkcH80Iil0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjHRfLErTSo First vid was the very first time we turned her over. The revving you hear is a vacuum line that was forgotten towards the back of the motor. And the second vid just speaks for itself. We...

    2JZ Swap: OBD2 Port Wireup in a 7M-GTE electrical dash help

    Meant to correct myself. I have the newer Aristo VVTI, so it should work for me. Not sure about the older Aristos.

    2JZ Swap: OBD2 Port Wireup in a 7M-GTE electrical dash help

    The Aristo ECU is JOBD with OBD2 compatability. The link in my first post on 2JZGarage shows how to set up Torque Pro Android and a bluetooth OBD2 reader to work with Android devices like a Galaxy Note Tablet 10.1 (which I have). This is why I want to do this. And the cable pictures is...

    2JZ Swap: OBD2 Port Wireup in a 7M-GTE electrical dash help

    Okay, as some of you know, Seth (sethron71) and I have been working on finishing up my 2JZ swap, and I was doing some research on the Aristo VVTI motor I'm putting in. Since the wiring harness was cut off, the OBD2 port was deleted from the wiring harness when the motor was shipped. I did some...

    Mechacnical Speedo Cable with Aristo A340?

    Not yet. This is my car Seth and I have been working on for so long. I'll try to snap pics next time of the underside of the bellhousing where the speedo sleeve is for reference, since the engine is already in the bay now.

    Pics of my weekend... Engine is back in the bay, wiring harness is routed (and will get covered after everything else is done...), fuel and oil lines hooked up, power wiring hooked up to everything except the battery in the trunk. We are almost ready for the test fireup after we've added...

    The TEMS System and HKS EAC-T Bible

    I have no idea on that. I truly don't know what Soarers have and can't even guess at compatibility. And no sweat Crisp, it's all good!

    The TEMS System and HKS EAC-T Bible

    That could VERY WELL be true, as you did experience it. I'm sure the ECU does some sort of calculation that would adjust for the speed differences, but it also uses the sensors for G-forces that are applied to the car when it does a maneuver at speed. Great point!
