    2JZ - GT4088 and 550's???

    Can one of you flow chart gurus tell me if I can run the GT4088 at 18 psi safely on 550cc injectors on a 2J or whether I will need to go with larger injectors. Thanks in advance... Chris

    2JZ Weight ***Hernia or Not***

    Anyone know how much the 2JZ weighs with no manifolds or accessories? I am going to get my engine and I have to get it into my van. I am thinking around 350-400 pounds. Just trying to see if three or four guys could muscle it into a van or whether I will need a hoist. This is just the block...

    My Best Upgrade Yet

    Just got my TTR Recaro seats in today. Best upgrade done to the car to date. Well, minus the 2J, but that hasn't been installed yet :) The car actually feels like a sports car now and looks a lot better without the retro headrest support. Absolutely love them! Cant wait to get it to the...

    Oil Cooler Needed?

    Anyone running a oil temp guage on their 1J? Just curious how well the stock setup cools or whether an oil cooler is worth the investment. Dont mind spending the extra, but only if there is a noticeable improvement.

    1J Turbo Question

    What is the smallest T4 footprint turbo that can see positive boost in the 2900 to 3100 rpm range on the 1J? I was looking at something like a GT3067R but I think that is only available in a T3 footprint. I am trying to avoid buying a T3 manifold, but I will if that is required. Goal is 390...

    Soarer Clip for Supra Install Question

    Other than the needing a bellhousing for the R154, intercooler, and motor mounts, is everything else the same for the swap? This is not counting the 2J parts that are needed for the install. I just want to know if the wiring harness, hydro fan, igniter, ECU, etc from a Soarer clip will work on...

    1.5 JZ Stock Twins Question

    Would 400 hp be attainable on a 1.5 JZ with stock twins with upgraded intercooler, y-pipe, and DP? This would be running within the CT12a safe daily driver limits, not a one time dyno pull at 17-18 psi.

    Help with diagnosis of drive train problem????

    I have a problem with my right rear drive train. I have a noticeable in and out wobble on my tire that causes the car to shake like heck above 70. I originally thought I had a bent rim, but after getting new rims and tires, the problem was still there. Took it back to the tire place and they...

    q45 vs stock TB???

    Ok folks, I have decided to get Ron's FFI. Is the q45 tb all it's cracked up to be for the cost? Granted it's large and will flow more but how big a turbo would be needed to outflow the stock TB. I am going to be running a Greddy T67 kit on the street between 15-17 psi with an attempt to get...

    Who Says 7M is Not Reliable????

    I have a 7MGTE with 216,000 on the clock. Motor had a MHG put on it earlier in it's life w/arps. Motor uses no water and never overheats in the brutal summers of Florida. I wanted to see how much life was in her before throwing some mods on, so a buddy and I did a compression test tonight...

    Oil pan gasket

    It appears that my previous owner used a gasket on the oil pan instead of the Toyota or aftermarket liquid gasket? I can see that the gasket has pushed out of the sides and has a slight leak. Can the pan be dropped enough to redo the gasket or does the engine have to be pulled?
