crazy that car is cleaner then I remember, can't believe you tore it down and started over just after you got it running, guess their is never enough power haha.
That looks like shit. my friend jb welded his manifold, lasted two months, started his car up went to go back in his house to grab something came out and thought he got shot, the thing blew up with a huge pop noise. Idk what that is but good chance it's only going to get worse. I would...
damn those old celicas and 2000gt's.. I've always wanted a muscle car but I think when I get older and feeling like restorin a car for a mid-life crisis, 70's celica with 1uz =D
pretty sure my 1jz is a soarer's because I bought a short shifter and it didn't fit, a soarers/lexus' shifter housing is further ahead. mine is a jdm tt-r but the previous owner blew the original motor and swapped it. doesn't mean it won't work it just means you'll have some plugs that are...
idk if a 1uz would fit in a cressida but hell would it go after!! +1 for a v8 lol. you'd definately have trouble with the wiring harness, I'd recommend dr. tweak a bit of a hasle but so worth it in the end. I'd love to put a 1uz in my supra but thats another project for another year lol
yeah unless you plan to ditch the c26 turbo for something bigger the intercooler is overkill. but you definately have enough supporting mods to go that way.
put it in the for sale section, sounds like your kit wasn`t much of a bargain lol it would of been good if you had a big single and injectors plus an air fuel controller because it would help for making big numbers. I`m running a 3 inch core with 2.5 inch piping and I`m at about 400 rwhp my self...
got my tein super street coilovers installed finally!! EBC next and then some adjusting once I go for a cruise and figure out what needs to be tweaked.. definately going to lower it more then it is now but I want to see how it rides (roads around town are bad nothing crazy) and then I will post...
A lexus AFM tricks your ECU into thinking it`s drawing more air because its for a V8 not a 6 cylinder, there is also a screw to adjust it. I think they are referring to your original AFM. idk exactly but thats the jist of what I understand. if you search you should find what you`re looking for...
ffim is purely bling unless your making a high hp application. as well as the 4" core intercooler, 3" is good to like 600rwhp so why go 4" your going to have so many clearance issues and have to relocate more infront of your car. I almost made this mistake, stock turbos DO not need a bigger...
blown turbo seal/gasket, check your oil for coolant or your coolant for oil if it's clean it was your turbo not headgasket. My original twins smoked bad when they leaked oil. It made boost on one but the other was doing nothing but pushing oil into my intercooler, thats the other thing you could...
the bumpers are interchangeable from all years, but taking that bumper off is a bitch theres more bolts on it alone then anything else on our cars. lol
I pretty much did the same thing as bmette, but I guess we have small core intercoolers. theres that much of a difference eh? why not look at a steel resevoir and relocate on engine side. is your battery relocated? thats the first place that comes to mind.
Yeah I've noticed that in the past having a hard time doing something and then once it's done you could do it over 3x quicker.
and kk right on I'll follow the tsrm to a tee should have it back together tomorrow within two hours I'm hoping.
thanks, they just made it sound like a lot of work and they told me I needed a spring compressor after I already stated I have coilovers not struts and springs. I just needed reference because I'm capable of doing it myself I just needed a know-how. Should of checked the TSRM myself >.> I'm just...
