Please don't burn up my ECU :)

That guy is on SF. I still don't understand building a four door family car. But to each his own.....

Electronics typically don't degrade slowly over time, they just die. It is very common for an electrical part to work fine one day and then be dead the next. Happens all the time with computers i.e video cards, memory, cpu's etc. Your 1J ECU is no exception. Sorry to hear about the problem...

The only JDM I would buy is a 1J or 2J. Do the swap and don't look back.

Big Single = better mileage :D

I am putting a hydro fan together now. I have the waterpump and clutch fan if you need it. PM for details. If you have the hydro parts I am missing, we can work a trade.

I was actually getting ready to fly up to Kentucky to buy a SC300 last week. I looked at every picture I could find with rims, spoilers, etc but I came to the conclusion that I like the MKIII better. I had a buyer for my car at work, but I couldn't sell it. I also remember looking at the...

I did not have the hydro fan setup, that is why I am using the 2J waterpump and 2J clutch fan. If I had a hydro setup, I would have an additional pump and ECU as a spare. There could come a time when these items are hard to find. Aaron, are you saying that you have seen cooling problems...

No, it wasn't you. It was RIC that stated that the reason 1J's were not putting up good numbers because people were using cheap parts. You are missing a 2J powering steering hose and throttle cable. There is no distributor unless you are using 2JZGE. You need an ignitor. You will need a...

You are right, as the HP increases on both the 1J and 2J, the torque starts to drop. I was implying that the 2J was closer to a 1:1 than a 1J. I will still argue that torque whens races, not horsepower. A modded Supra lined up next to a properly modded 5.0, Vega, or Grand National will get...

I have only seen one or two 1J dynos that shows the same torque curve as a 2J. The 1J makes hp in the upper rpm range, but the torque starts to fall off fast. That is why I want to see these "so called" 700 and 800 hp dynos from "the boys" in South Florida. I am betting there is a 25% to 30%...

I would go with a 2J bottom end. I would probably go with a GE and buy a set of TT pistons or just put a slightly thicker head gasket on it. To buy an entire 2J after having the 1J seems a bit excessive unless you are going to keep the twins. The 2J head does flow better but I think the...

I ordered a 2JZGTE one from AutoZone for $54.00

That is wrong on so many levels :aigo:

Will your check engine light will stay on if you cut the wire?

I am interested in a console with 60mm guages and a turbo timer below the radio. Can you do it in a black that matches the original black? I don't want a color mismatch if at all possible.

Or a Grand National :naughty:

Good stuff! I thought you were quiting :D

I hope you ordered your 100 shot setup to get her spoolin.

Cheer up man, don't get discouraged. If I can help at all, just call me.
