I agree with all of this. Jeff

Which expansion valve did you order? Jeff

No, we don't. Jeff

Does anyone know of any sources for these anymore now that American Condenser/Vista Pro are gone (doesn't seem like United Systems is doing much with their back-catalog and nobody lists the 1039293 in stock any longer)? I can obviously still get a Denso 477-0136 or 477-0145, but I'm quite sure...

Looking good. Starting work on a JZA70 TT-R right now as well, some inspirational stuff in here, and a few pieces I wouldn't mind having, but the time has past for some of them from Toyota anywhere. :( Jeff

They're supposed to be gloss black. Did you get a complete set for the front? If so where did you find them? Been trying to find the sides. Jeff

The bend is supposed to be there. Jeff

Any Toyota dealer in Canada can order this gear and get it within a couple of days. Jeff

So I've driven the car about 20,000 km over the last year and in that time I have decided that while the clutch setup isn't terrible, it could use improving. The throttle response from the 2GR-FSE is better than the 4GR was and as such having the dual mass flywheel with the dampened clutch disc...

Worst case it is still available from Toyota. Jeff

Japan did have ABS on some models. Either way, the engine harness is the same with or without ABS though. Jeff

The speedometer issue is pretty certainly a mechanical one. The idle issue is likely unrelated, but you say they occur at similar times. Not sure why that would be. The ECU receives no speed signal when you are idling (not moving), and typically the speed signal would not have much of a bearing...

I did not. :( Was too busy sorting out my Lexus. Jeff

Did the first oil change on the new engine this week and finally got the new tires on the car, they're Bridgestone Potenza RE-71R in 245/40R17 front and 245/45R17 rear. I would have preferred to keep the square tire setup, but the differences between the IS250 and IS350 VDIM parameters just...

As long as people keep buying parts in high enough quantities, they will keep making them. People haven't been buying enough parts to make it worth their while. Why not? Because they didn't sell enough of the cars when they were in production and there are evn less now and the people who have...

The teeth should be flat when they're new. The one on the right looks like they're pretty worn. It looks like the Bosch starter uses a different design than Denso. The Denso one you've got looks correct and what the original starters that came from Toyota looked like. Jeff

I can confirm there is no difference in the fuel rails between VVT-i and without VVT-i, stock or otherwise. Jeff

So the computer showed up last week and I got that installed, added a relay, and assembled a junction connector. After a couple of hours of test driving the night I installed the ECU, I headed out for the weekend on a 2,500km (1,550 mile) trip through the mountains to properly test...

If it was me, and I just needed to be able to drive the car around, I would swap all of the external parts and electronics from the 7M-GE onto the 7M-GTE and drive the car. You'll be a bit low on power due to the compression, but the rest of it will be fine. Yes the intake cam is slightly...

Finally got the last of the parts (aside from the ECU) today. Will need to add the wiring for these new sensors and I swapped out one of the MPX ECU's in the dash earlier this week. Not sure the best way to get the new wires into the engine ECU box, but probably de-looming the body harness. Not...
