What the tits does that switch do? After payday I am going to order some parts to get my MK3 running without a tiny coolant leak and replacing the turbo inlet hose with a silicone one and maybe some goodies but right now I gotta do some maintenance work on her.

I've torqued everything I needed to already, exhaust manifold to 29ft lbs but i think i should have gone to 30 or 31 but everyone said to stick with oem spec.

I want a torque wrench but I don't need it to torque anything.

lol good luck

How accurate is it lol

Love new tools

I got the felpro head gasket kit for about 140 or 180

I used a composite Felpro gasket that is just like OEM. I doubt I will go for much hp with this 7M. Did you find a thermostat housing or BVSV valve by the way?

No problem, just take your time and I hope you replace every gasket you come across oh and it's good to replace the EGR cooler gasket with a metal one and triple check everything and label your nuts and bolts like crazy I went through at least 40 ziplock bags that were marked and even drew a...

I did the same thing buddy I changed my head gasket with the help of some members on here and I have never removed a head before and thanks to those guys who helped me out in my thread my MK3 is running strong today. If you need any help just do what I did and make a thread or you can also check...

Exactly why when I get a JZ motor I am rebuilding it completely so it is like new.

Ah then nvm if it was the TT then I would say let me have it and I'll drop it in my MK3. :D

What did you do with the RB motor?

:( I is sads, looks sexy though seems like you are going the same route I plan on with replacing everything.

Can I have it?

Very nice you also have to think about the age of the motor 1JZs are like 10ish years old right? Might as well replace all of the seals and gaskets that way it can run reliably and well for another decade and run like new. I plan on replacing everything possible on my 1JZ and make the block and...

That is probably how deep I will be lol, do it properly the first time and you will be glad you did in the end.

What kind of figures are you guys talking about? I know a 1jz motor itself is about 1-2k I think the VVTI costs more but better from what I hear and the swap I assume is another 1k depending on what you want to do and for me I would rebuild the entire motor so that alone will be like 2-3k at the...

Yea my goal is to have a JZ motor with 500hp but capable of 700+hp just so I know it's safe when I take it to the track. I'd like to be able to drive the car comfortably on the streets like take it out on the weekend to hang out with friends and take it to the track the next weekend for some fun.

I really want a 1JZ
