That's what I thought, I just wanted to confirm, thank you. This won't disrupt the coolant flow through the engine though right? Or create a hot spot?

I am deleting the IACV on my 1JZGTE since I am going with a Microtech Standalone ECU, from my understanding it only works with stock ECU. But here's my question since I can't find any clear info on it: What is done with all the coolant lines on the intake manifold after you remove the IACV? Do...

This manual only covers The introduction and engine mechanical sections so far, correct? Just want to make sure that's all there is cause I'm printing this out.

buying some stainless pipe here pretty quick and getting a whooole bunch of fabrication done.

I never noticed that before, it does look like it doesn't it? I'm sure it's mounted good.

X3's can be quite cool

I got a jzx73 ;) still running stock twins? you should pick up some BC racing coilovers, $1000 well spent!

it is the valve stem seals, I was just trying to see if I could pick up a working 5MGE for a cheap price. Looks like I will be taking the head off and replacing gaskets as well as the stem seals.

Hey guys, I recently bought a second MX73 Cressida that's in minty shape but the 5MGE in it is burning lots of oil unfortunately, which is to be expected. I'm wondering if anyone has or knows of anyone with a good 5MGE or possibly a non turbo JZ motor with a 5 speed they would sell? Looking...

Whooo, you messed up that Sub frame something fierce, nice work! I don't know how I feel on the rust just chillin' in the air with no respirator other than a towel, Lol, kinda sketchy but at least it was out doors. Is that POR15 or rockgaurd or something that's coated the frame now?

still in the midst of finalizing the 1JZ swap. Couple odds and ends. Need to buy a external gate.

yeah I saw the sweet daddy D reference there, nice.

I don't have another vehicle at the moment. The cressida is the only car I own, lol.

I'd love to come out, buut my Cressida isn't complete yet. Maybe Next year.

:D ...

oh, forgot to mention, my car was sitting outside a friend's shop and got backed into by a big truck. pushed in my drivers rear quarter. :( Before: After:

Ended up buying 150MM Swift Springs for my Serialnine/Stance Coilovers in 11/9k spring rates. also bought Xcessive Manufacturing 30mm Roll center adjusters aswell as a 1/4" steel skid plate. also in the midst of purchasing A Microtech LT-12S Standalone ECU for my 1JZ. Goodbye SAFC Neo!

Thanks! I wish I never bought the Drift spec coilover's from serialnine lol The valving on the drift spec ones is meant to be coupled with 12k/10k spring rates and the springs are 200mm tall. The street coils are 10k/8k spring rates, softer valving and the springs are 175 or 150mm long... I'm...
