    Bad Sputter (Miss?) ***VIDEO INSIDE*** Please help.

    Setup: 2JZ-GE-T with 7M ECU and Electronics. Maybe at 15,000 miles. Symptom: Sputter on start up that stays all throughout the RPM range. (well at least to 3,500) This is exactly the issue that caused me to stop driving it over the summer except then it would go in and out. I...

    No power whatsoever. Need help trouble shooting!

    Setup info: 2JZ-GE-T with 7M ECU/Harness. SAFC Neo (freshly reflashed by Apexi). Circumstance: I parked the car in early June as I was having what I believe to be a Karmen issue. I think the SAFC Neo might have been the culprit. However... For some stupid reason I left the battery connect...

    Two Bad AFMs in 2 Months?

    The issue is that I keep throwing code 31 for AFM Signal. First time around I found a used one, put it in and it ran well for two months. Then at the end of February it did the same thing. The car hasn't moved since. What happens with the car when it throws the code is that it will pin rich on...

    Strange Rich Idle Condition

    Every so often my car develops a 10.0 reading on my AEM AFR gauge. The engine stutters and every so often dies. But if I accelerate it acts normal and AFR readings read normal as well until I go to idle again or just try to lightly push the gas pedal to maintain speed. To "fix" it I typically...

    Clutch Issue *Pics*

    Well last night after somewhat of a spirited launch (4K RPM slipped, NOT dumped) the clutch stopped engaging altogether. I haven't had any issues with the clutch before this. The pedal still has pressure however the clutch will not engage or disengage. So today I jacked it up, took the...

    Raced an Evo 9

    I was on the way to work yesterday and right as I got on the freeway we both kind of started driving a little faster than traffic, maybe 70 or so. We were both side by side and he did a quick pull for like 2 seconds just to show that he wanted to run. BTW I love Evo's, and I figure most of...

    Wiring an AEM EMS from a pre 89 to an 89+

    May Meet Pictures and Video at MVP Motorsports

    T61 2JZ Autocross

    Just some autocross action on old stock shocks, ST springs and bald tires :-) My first time participating in an autocross and it was just a blast. Even though I could have driven a lot better I was still very happy with a 6 second improvement from my first time. (3 runs total) I paid for 6...

    T61 2JZ MK3 Pulls

    Nothing too special just my car doing some 2nd to 3rd gear pulls and one 1st gear pull. Dirty car, dirty engine bay and a slow car. :3d_frown: These pulls were only at 9.14 PSI... At least it sounds decent! :) Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drS7jdWHOR0 Added another video due to...

    Prosport Boost Gauge Wiring

    I really hate to make a thread like this but I'm crunched for time and in the middle of doing some other major work right now. What wires can I tie an IGN signal wire into? The IGN fuse is where I'm pulling power for my Uego and the ground is just a basic ground. I've got the wires for the...
