    Stock oil pressure gauge acting weird

    My stock oil pressure gauge is stuck at the max reading all the time, even when the car is off. I realized I had left the 1JZ pressure switch on the engine and I forgot to order the hose adapter from DM to put the 7M sender on. I unplugged the pressure switch and the gauge still stays maxed out...

    1JZ catch can hose size question

    I'm putting a breather catch can on my 1JZ and I was wondering what size hose I need to run from the valve cover to the can. The can is just going to have a filter on the other side of it, I'm not running it back to the turbo inlet. I bought a can on ebay, and it came with 3/8" ID hose (the...

    Need OEM part number for the plastic outside B pillar covers

    Talking about the ones that go behind the side window glass that cover the vent holes. Anyone recently bought a set of these have the OEM number, or are they no longer available new? :aigo: Mine have busted tabs and are ugly and I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do with them...

    main fusible link messed up, wtf....

    Some idiot cut the main blue fusible link on my car down to a useless stub, and now I need to fix it before I can hook my battery up. I was reading that you're supposed to replace fusible link with the same color and length, but I have no idea what the original length was, and the color is...

    W58 clutch fork problem

    I'm in the middle of swapping a 1JZ into my car, using a 7MGE W58 trans that I had around. I bought a 2JZGE bell housing (MKIV n/a) and put it on the trans, but the mounting pad for the slave cylinder is farther out and the slave cylinder doesn't line up with the clutch fork anymore. Looks like...

    Removing fuel damper, good or bad?

    Stock fuel hose from damper to rail is busted (on my 1JZ), I'm thinking of just replacing it with a DM hose. I'm still running a stock pump and relay/resistor for now, stock boost, will eliminating the fuel damper cause any problems?

    Need picture of soarer ECU plugs or color pinout

    I'm trying to repin the smashed ecu plug on my early style soarer 1JZGTE harness, some of the wires are pulled out of the plugs and I can't figure out which spots they go into. I have that ECU pinout that's posted elsewhere on here, but it has no wire colors for the pins and I already tried...

    ANOTHER wiring question

    On my 87 7MGTE automatic harness there's a small 3 pin plug with only one wire going through it at the junction behind the glovebox where all the body plugs are. This plug connects between the engine harness and the body harness It's got one light green/red wire with red dots on it. What is...

    Can the ABS be removed like this? should I?

    I'm in the middle of my 1jz swap and just realized my transmission isn't machined for an ABS sensor. I also just noticed that both of my front sensors have broken wires (right where they go into the sensor, can't fix them). Also, it appears that my ABS unit is messed up (probably corrosion...

    Found the best ricer mod ever, on my new jdm engine

    I was just looking at the BOV VTA job that the previous owner in japan did on my 1jz. Then I realized.... wait.... it's backwards. :3d_frown: Apparently the guy knows nothing about how a turbo system works, cause he blocked off the pressure side of the bov and vented the part that goes to the...

    Jzz30 soarer dash plugs wired same as sc300?

    Trying to figure out the wiring on the under dash plugs for my early 90's soarer 1JZ auto into my 87 supra MA70 auto (w/ 5 speed swap soon). Can't find a soarer wiring diagram other than the ecu plug, so I was hoping the sc300 was the same. Anyone know?

    jzz30 ecu plugs same as ...?

    I need a spare ecu plug for my soarer jzz30 1jz ecu, one is crushed on my JDM engine. Is there anything else that uses the same plug body that I can use to swap the pins into? I have a local u-pull-it yard that has a bunch of common toyotas and lexus stuff (no supras or sc300's though), I was...

    Driveshaft confusion....

    I'm swapping a 1JZ into my MKIII, and going to be using the R154 transmission. My car is a 1987 with a 7MGTE/automatic. I thought I would just need an 87' M/T driveshaft to swap to the R154, but after looking at several places that sell driveshafts I'm confused. One site listed one shaft for...

    What color should I paint my MKIII....

    I'm broke and will be rollering my car using the "$50 dollar paint job" method using rustoleum paint. What color would look the best on this car? I don't want a gloss black car (I've had too many), and red is out (rustoleum red is known to fade), so is any color of green (ugly) . The car...
