    Fuel tank baffle question (dual pump)

    Hey fellas, I searched for pictures on our fuel tank internals specifically the baffle where the pump sits and couldn't find clear pictures. If anyone has a extra fuel tank sitting around, a couple of pics would be appreciated. Basically I'm trying to figure out if our fuel tanks baffle...

    Barb fitting size from FPR to return line rubber hose question

    Hey fellas, I'm refreshing/upgrading my fuel pressure regulator lines to teflon lines. I'm trying to figure out the barb fitting size needed for the rubber hose that connects to the hardline going back to the fuel tank (the one by the firewall). Which barb fitting size do I need for that hose...

    2JZ intake manifold support bracket

    Hey guys, Is the 2JZGTE stock intake manifold support bracket really necessary? I'm talking about the one that would attach to the fuel dampner that we lose or have to redesign once we install the swap motor brackets? Thanks

    What is/are your 2014 Supra goal(s)?

    Why not start that same thread in on of my favorite forum ;) Mine is to finally finish my 2J swap project which started back in Aug 2012 when I acquired the engine. I've been taking my sweet time with this project since my 7M still runs (it's hard to let go). I also wanted to control/spread...

    Has anyone tried these CX Racing engine brackets?

    Looks like an interesting product. Thought I would share or get feedback if anyone is using them. Their claim and I copied/pasted (not my english :) ) "....If Using Stock Mount, 1ZJ or 2JZ Motor Sits Too Forward to the Front of the Car, Does not Have Too Much Room for Radiator and Fans. Our...

    For those with working JDM power folding mirrors

    Hey guys, i'm about done installing my power folding mirrors and tested them tonight. I just want to confirm that both mirrors fold when the button is pressed correct? I was assuming at first that you could select which mirror folds, but logic makes me think they both fold no matter where the...

    Evo 8 Recaro seats

    Hey fellas, my friend is giving me an incredible deal in some super clean Evo 8 Recaro seats similar to pic below that I shouldn't pass on. I searched around and it doesn't seem a common swap in the MKIII world. Do you guys see any challenges in fitting these in my car? Any brackets...

    Since I'll be swapping 2J A/C compressor (R12 to 134 question during swap)

    I never converted my A/C system to 134a on my car. My A/C hasn't worked for a while due to a leak somewhere, but since I'll be swapping in a 2J this summer/fall, I figured, I'll have to convert the rest of the system to 134a anyways, since I'll be running the 2J compressor. What's the best way...

    Which 2J motor mount? there are 2 different types

    Hey guys, I've searched, but can't find a definite answer. There are 2 different 2JZ motor mounts out there. Pre 97 and post 97? (I think). Which one works for the MKIII? They are different heights it seems. I'll be using JZA70 1J brackets. Option 1? (please tell me which bracket is which...

    What's your spare tire solution with the Arz BBK?

    Hey guys, I posted this question in the Arz vendor section, but I only 14 views in the last 3 days, so I'm posting on here. I was just wondering which spare wheel/tire are you running? I have the ARZ 13" BBK kit and MKIV tt rears. I've been running this kit without a spare tire since 2007 and...

    low boost 12psi 7M cruise

    This is my little tribute to my 7M as I will be going 2JZ hopefully by the end of this summer. I have nothing bad to say about the 7M. This video was taken this past weekend. Car has had a rod knock for probably 5 years now and the MHG is finally giving up after about 8 years, so I do love this...

    1JZ Rear sump oil pan VS 2JZ rear sump oil pan

    I know they both work for the 2JZ aristo swap, but are they exactly the same? identical? meaning the pan baffle, oil pick-up tube, etc? Thanks a lot

    7M injector resistor box with 2jzgte question

    Hey Guys, quick question that has been confusing me. Using a 7M injector resistor box on a 2JZGTE has nothing to do with whether or not it's running sequential injection correct? In other words, using a 7M resistor box with a 2JZ will still let the 2J remain sequential injection and NOT...

    What are the signs of a dying water pump?

    Hey Guys, My car is starting to over heat. However, the stock gauge never indicates that(does not go past half point). My external (cyberdyne) water temp gauge is the one showing very high temps sometimes, my AEM EMS coolant sensor parameter also does not agree with the cyberdyne, but being...

    30-1130 box (7M) with a 2JZGTE?

    Hey guys, I'm seriously considering going 2J(gte) and one of the things holding me back is the headache of trying to sell my 30-1130 box to get the 30-1100 box. Can my box work with the 2JZGTE? I've looked at both manuals/pin diagrams and it seems like it should work, but I want to hear it...

    Big Dawgs, Can we get an update? (Ron, Duane, Kwnate etc) to name a few

    Especially the NW guys, Ron, Duane, Kwnate. It looks like the summer will go by and we will not see new numbers :icon_conf which means another long boring winter waiting. I follow you guys' built threads, but it's been a while since an update. Kwnate, is you car running strong still? Ron any...

    Fuel level in relation to fuel pump question

    Hey Guys, basically, I'm trying to find out at what fuel gauge level do you think that the fuel pump is no longer fully submerged? I've always have a bad habit of refueling when it's actually time to :biglaugh: (empty light) but I do know that I've been playing with fire. I've indeed noticed...
