    2JZ Fuel Injectors

    Well, basically you would swap an engine to go up on the power ladder and swapping in a 2jzge in my point of view isn't a step forward unless you come from a 7mge. What I mean is when you're taking the efforts to put in another engine, why not put in a turbo engine straight away. Turboing a...

    what is the best setup for my 1jzgtte?

    And what's the best pump fuel you get over there? I guess meth. or race gas is out of the question over there as well?

    1j exhaust mani. studs?

    My comments on the mani studs are based on own hands-on experience (about 7 years with supras now). I've had mani's on and off on different engines (7m, 1jz, 2jz) and only replaced one or two studs because of thread issues (never used/bought a new one though). None ever broke off. I've broken...

    Hose size

    Hose to what? To an aftermarket single turbo?

    2JZ Fuel Injectors

    He means a multi meter. Set it on the impedance (Ohms) setting and measure between the two pins. Around 2-3Ohm is low impedance and 8Ohm and up is high impedance. With the lows you will need to wire in a resistor pack. But why, if I may ask, are you installing such small injectors? Are...

    Using a wideband with a Stinger

    The output works perfect with the emb. (on sw release 1.49). No experience with the stinger though.

    O2 sensor?

    'cause they're cheaper, toyota charges ridiculous prices for O2 sensors

    Guys w/o cam gear covers how audible are your gears/belt?

    Take a metal tube and hold it to the waterpump, ps-pump, generator or whatever you suspect is making the noise and put your ear on the other side, it worked for me to locate a worn out bearing from the waterpump.

    Catch can

    Yes, that's what I thought, I'm sorry to say but you're wrong. Pistons moving up and down don't create crank case pressure. When one piston goes up, another goes down. Or in other words, the volume of the crank case always is the same. If it wouldn't the crank wouldn't be in balance. Air is only...

    Catch can

    I'm curious, what do you think is causing crank case pressure?

    Catch can

    Check your static compression, you probably have piston ring blow-by, that's what's blowing your seals.

    1j exhaust mani. studs?

    I'm sorry, but that's just plain BS, they're nothing like head bolts. Headbolts can be re-used about three to four times, no problem. However it does depend on why you removed the head though, if you suffered pre-ignition damage I would replace them; they did take quite some beating then. If you...

    Catch can

    Yes, just vent it, I had it for years without problems. I only now run a catch can to keep the car clean from oil spatters. The catch can needs to be in a cool place so the oil in the air can condensate. If it's in the hot engine bay and you re-routed it back into the turbo intake there's a lot...

    quick ? for single guys

    I've put one of those little breather filters on it.

    no o2 sensor

    OK, I guess I misunderstood/misread, I get your point. Pity you must be so cocky though. btw I didn't think or say pilots use whatever power, those are your words I never commented to that.

    no o2 sensor

    No, it's far less than that, it's around 150 to 200 whp, depending on wheel stance/size and ride height. You are only maintaining speed, which means only drag and wheel resistance. You're only generating lots of hp when accelerating, that's when you build up load on your engine. Drag + wheels...

    need bigger injectors using stock fuel rail which injectors should i use?

    Ehm, two pumps on a seperate feed will pump more than two on the same feed. But if series pumps is sufficient for you I can understand you don't want to go through the hassle. But I'm curious why you don't like the idea of a boost activated pump? I don't like the idea of a full tank of fuel...

    1jz problems(white smoke)

    Turbo seals. When oil gets on a hot surface the smoke will be white not blue anymore. Coolant from a bhg will give a mist of white smoke, not thick white smoke like he described.

    1jz swap no spark...

    Measure the 6 wires between the igniter and the ecu for conductivity, that's what "I was told to check the IGF wire from my ignition to my ecu but I don't know which wire that is" means. Also check the plugs on the coilpacks, when they're a bit old they go brittle and break causing a bad or...

    Thinking about changing to emanage blue

    That's the pain in the bum of standalone's; when you're done tuning fuel and ignition you need to tune all the compensation maps; airtemp, altitude, accell, decell etc. Well, at least if you want to drive the car in more than one condition ;-) But it's worth it to have full control on all that...
