Is anyone aware of anything to quiet down a BOV, or a BOV model that is quiet? I am getting really tired of this Greddy Type-S whistling all the time. It was cool when I was 18, but ten years later it grates on my nerves like listening to an 18 year old talk about the meaning of life. If...

Like the title says, I'm trying to get my hands on a good, running, 2L-T (or 2L-TE, or any related toyota diesel engine). I'm looking for a full swap with the engine/harness/transmission and all the major stuff to swap it into something that was gas. :naughty: I've been looking, but there are...

I keep having to pull the power window switches apart to clean the black oxidation off the contacts. It keeps coming back though every few months (and the windows quit working then). I tried silicone grease and it didn't seem to help, and I tried white lithium and no help there either. I have...

I think the blade hit a rock. Seriously though, it was a pulling tractor that over revved from the excess fuel left after a run... http://forums.24hoursoflemons.com/viewtopic.php?id=15927

I pulled my tach out to swap the resistors so my tach reads right with the 1J (it's been off by about 200rpm and it's annoying me) and it looks like my tach has different resisitors than I was expecting to find. My car came with a 7MGTE and an automatic transmission. There's also a second...

Got around to street tuning my car and getting some numbers on my dyno. I got some logs of the runs with my SSI-4 too, I'll add them later when I get them off my laptop. These runs were at 14psi. I ran out of time today so I didn't get to mess with turning the boost up a little more. I can do...

The front and rear tow hooks are the obvious spot, but I was just wondering if thats what everyone is using and if they were strong enough, specifically the rear ones that are under high load. If not the rear tow hooks, then where?

I usually mount EGT probes in the collector on the manifold, but I have a divided manifold so I'd have to run two probes to read both sides, which is pointless because I'm running a single scroll turbo on the manifold anyway. I was considering mounting the egt probe in the turbine housing inlet...

I don't know if this was found/posted before, but I stumbled across it today. I've never seen such a detailed pin-out of the JZZ30 ECU and body plugs before. http://wilbo666.pbworks.com/w/page/47216384/1JZ-GTE JZZ30 Soarer

I couldn't stand looking at the muffler I put on when I first got the car any longer, so I hacked it off and welded up a new axle-back section... I found this muffler on ebay, it's made by Jones Full Boar exhaust (in the USA) and for $45 shipped it was a pretty sweet deal. It's their Max Flow...

It's May 12th & 13th. This used to be a huge show with 3000+ cars, but last time I went in 08' it was down to about 750 cars (still fun though). Anyone here go last year? I'm debating taking my car down this year to put in non-judged, I just wasn't sure if it was still a decent show or if it was...

Someone just posted this up on facebook, I don't know anything about it, just thought I'd share it. If this is a repost, delete it (i did search first and didn't see it though).

I was pulling my fuel rail to fix (what I suspect is) one or more seeping lower injector o-rings that's causing rough hot restarting (hard restart only after it sits for 1/2 hour, not usually any other time) when I found my cam sensors are leaking oil into the harness plugs. It's leaking through...

I picked up an oil cooler from a TurboII FC RX7 to use on my 1JZ. It has a built in 160 degree thermostat, but when the oil is cold I'd rather not squeeze it through the cooler lines and have an excessive pressure drop, so I'm planning on running a sandwich adapter with a thermostat so it...

I ordered the 88' trooper 2.6L timing belt from NAPA that people are using on the 1JZ and the belt I got has teeth that are almost square (the edges are rounded). The belt that came on my 1JZ has round teeth (so do the sprockets). Is this the same kind of belt people have been using? Doesn't...

I've been searching for an hour and I give up... it's not even in the A70 weight index. What does the stock steel hood weigh? Also, does anyone know what any of the various brands/styles carbon fiber and fiberglass hoods weigh? I know some of them are more for show than weight reduction, and I...

That's it... I'm buying a set of 195/55-16 for the stock rims. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=HPh90yNX-mY#!

I'm looking for a way to increase the steering effort a bit without swapping to PPS (if that's even possible). Preferably without spending hundreds of dollars. On my eclipse years ago I bought a modified bypass valve for the power steering pump (for $40) that lowered the pump pressure to...

http://www.honeywellbooster.com/turbocast/vnt-dualboost-turbo/ I'm guessing we just have to wait for a few ford trucks to make it to the junk yard to make this turbo affordable. Pretty damn cool though... similar to compound charging, but with one turbo. I'd love to see a 2000hp 2JZ running...

Just figured I'd post this up for anyone who searches for this company in the future. I took the chance on an "eClutchmaster" stage 2 clutch for my car, it was the MKIV NA kit (for the W58 trans). I paid $150 shipped. *When I bought it* (it has since been revised), it was listed to hold 380hp...
