No, the reason it gets to 211 in 25 sec is gearing. The 2jz is fully capable of that, hell the torqueless wonder 1jz is capable of that. The swap is interesting non-the-less I find it refreshing to see somthing diffrent tried in the MKIV, The 2JZ has been done up every possible way at least a...

Ah gotcha! ;) Just a minor miss in communication between the three of us. Cynicism and skepticism never seem to translate very well over the internet.

That just went on my must see list.

The primary cause of wear on spark plugs is the 20,000 volts or more (much more for the 7M) arcing across the electrode of a spark plug. This can wear down soft material like copper very fast. A copper head gasket doesn't have to deal with nearly the same conditions. So comparing the two on a...

Yep, still waiting on the new Nissan GTR.... and waiting....... and still waiting.

Not to bring up an old thread or anything but I decided, rather that start a new one I would just throw a little fuel on these smoldering coals. It looks like Toyota has given the green light for production of the FT-HS in 2009. Toyota's answer to the GTR-Proto...

who8mybrownie: Thanks! And welcome to this one.:icon_bigg 7MA61: I might get away with the Koran but my LCPO would have my shorts if I tried not shaving for even a day.:icon_conf Ric: You a funny guy. :D Thanks. Jdub: Appreciate the words; I was hoping you would chime in. Like anything...

I'm very sorry to hear that Larry, he indeed has been a giant influence in this community and a motivation for may members. In this community people come and go, but then there are those people who have become such a staple here that the though never occurs that they might one day be gone...

Like the title says, a little over two weeks ago I started down the road to a Private Pilots License for Single-Engine Land. I think I may have just found a hobby more expensive than the Supra! And that’s supposed to be impossible, right? I arrived here in Oak Harbor on orders at the...

If that is aginst your better judgement, I don't like you better judgment. :-p Give us more of that irrational, and poor judgment. The Supra demands it.

We did! Oh yeah right, that happened a while ago didn't it, 1776 or so. I guess there about due for another one. Don't mind those guys, they were just trying to prove that it is actually possible for a Toyota engine other than the 7M to get rod knock. Even if drastic measures need to be taken.

^^It takes highly trained professionals to screw up an oil change as bad as they sometimes do. Job requirements at Jiffy Lube: "A minimum of 2.5 years behind a bong is required before operating any of the required machinery." Requirements to srew up an oil change on a supra: "less......much...

lol, how old do you think Jeff is?

Not sure if he posts over there but he definitely is known on those forums.

First thing i would do is ditch that FCD. Probably contributed to your "popped" engine. grab some 550 injectors to go with that lex, as well as an AFPR and you'll be sitting pretty.

Look! It's a baby supra! Aww isn't it cute. Just playing, good looking car man.

Lam has been around long enough to know what to expect when he posts. He has an incredibly thick skin about this stuff, and a little razzing from the guys here isn't going to phase him any.

I must have missed that part, could somebody post the chrome engine again.

We are also the type to continue using the phones even if it were true.:3d_frown: "Be careful the coffee is hot!" "Really?...ok..................Ouch! I just burned myself! That was hot! I need to sue somebody for my stupidity."
