    Anyone use Reinzoil products before?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOdYgYGwN8w I can't believe she isn't wearing any safety glasses! This stuff sounds good and is supposed to handle 300 C. read on another forum that people use it to seal their V12 BMW intakes instead of spending almost 800 for 4 new gaskets.

    Saw this at a shop here.

    One of the customers 1J engines. The owner wasn't there so I don't know where the motor came from. It has a custom manifold that looks like it flows better than the old 1JZ CT-26 manifolds that driftmotion sold. Not sure what the pea shooter is though, need a ladder to see it better.

    1JZ first run after installation

    Had some issues with this motor after install. Mods are 3 inch exhaust and 440's. I had 370's in there but still had the same problems where AFR's would go straight to 10 during full throttle within a few hundred RPM. Motor is fully stock with stock twins. I think the 3 inch exhaust really threw...

    Iridums or Copper?

    Well the choice was clear for me today. During boost my car started missing and had a bad miss at idle with some smoke coming from the tailpipe. Upon inspection of the spark plugs (Denso iridiums) the number 6's porcelain completely separated as shown in the second pic. Put the old NGK BKR7E's...

    I think I'm in love

    And not just because of the music either. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ww84iFoKBxw This kit looks promising but the manifold isn't out yet.

    Decided to run without a shroud.

    Just put on a shroud again, must be my 5th one with the Koyorad and on the way home made the decision to not run with the shroud anymore. As I rounded a corner, I gunned it in second and after hearing a large bang @ around 6000 RPM and getting sprayed with debris from the front and from under...

    IC piping

    Just thought Id share a photo of one of my couplers. This one was mounted where the hole is for the stock airbox. I still had decent boost even with the hole.

    Lost another shroud today

    I flew over two speed bumps today and the fan hit the shroud, broke two blades off the fan so I spent about 20 minutes pulling the shroud off in little pieces and had to drive to work with an unbalanced fan. While at work I used a hacksaw to take off the opposing two blades and balance was...

    intermittent white smoke.

    Well this is just great, my car has been smoking on and off for a couple of months only when idling, then with a little revving it clears up. I had the IC pipe off today to change the alternator and the pipe is nice and oily inside. I had the stock pea shooters rebuilt almost two years ago with...

    Before and after 3" exhaust

    Hi, The first run is with a stock exhaust with a hollowed out cat at 14 psi. As you can see the twins got all choked up and the HP dropped when it got to full boost and lost allmost 60 HP. I could really feel the drop as it stopped pulling on the road. AFR's were allways below 11 at full boost...

    Heater valve and Catch can

    Hi, first off I disconnected my heater valve after the metal pipe broke and plugged the water hoses about a year ago. I just went on vacation to the USA and got one in Phoenix at one of the yards there and put it on this morning and I seem to have misplaced the connector for it so my question is...

    Aristo 440's

    I just had my upgraded steel wheeled ct-12a twins installed with a set of aristo 440's and the car wouldn't start. The injectors don't pulse. Put old stock injectors in and it fired right up. The 440's each read 13.8 ohms and the stockers are 16.7. Do you need a resistor pack for 3 ohms? They...

    shimming the stock pea shooters

    Hello, I have an upgraded set of stock twins with steel wheels that I am going to install shortly after I solve a boost problem. I have a manual boost controller that will get me up to max 14 psi and no higher because of the wastegates. With the hose off to it I can get over 20 PSI (short test...

    Need a part identified

    Hi, My vacuum modulator broke and I can't get any info on what this does, circled in black that goes to the rear turbo intake pipe. Right now I'm just running a straight hose. The little plastic valve is what broke. I looked on the 2J parts list and didn't find anything like it. Ignore the red...

    1J swap

    Well looks like Ill be doing another swap. My 1J overheated when I left it idling outside a shop for less than 10 minutes then the next day it burned oil when I arrived at work. It had oil smoke coming from the exhaust. Going home that night it was fine but the temp outside was only around 100...
