    Priming oil system?

    Yeah maybe so but I have never had any starter problems I just go with what is easier. Pulling the ignitor plug or the EFI fuse has the same effect as pulling the plugs it is just a different part of the equation ;)

    Priming oil system?

    could have Pulled the EFI fuse Crank it all you want (with out going to hard on the starter) you will prime up just fine. or you can pull the ignitor plug for the same results. yeah about 30 sec is the average then a clean start should fine

    The Celica Sensor is probably the same resistance or close enough or just another 1JZ/2JZ sensor what I did is just by pass the coolant temp sensor in most apps I drilled and tapped the hole to suit a defi Sensor.

    Water pump and fan technical questions

    I forgot to mention that if you use the GE fan it samcks the water neck it sits to close to the water pump, we did a similar swap on an Aristo from GE to GTE (GTE was hydraulic fan) had to scrap the fan because it did not sit on the GTE water pump correctly it hit the water neck/upper hose. SO...

    Water pump and fan technical questions

    I have bought over ten OEM water pumps (mostly to sell) none of them have been plastic. As far as the clutch fan it is giri giri on the distance from the end of the blade to the rad, But what I think most people are concerned about it where it sits in relation to left and right of the rad...

    2jz 240sx swap

    BlackMKIII is correct it is non-interference (pistons will not strike the valve) unless you have some huge ass cams in there..... Tim is also right pretty hard to screw up but remember there are two marks on the crank pully use the left mark (should be painted white)

    I had the same issue with my JZX90 1JZGTE the Green (Cold Start) sensor below the Grey water Temp sensor had gotten hit while I was changing the water pump. It was still hanging on but all of a sudden after getting the new pump in and starting it did not want to start so I checked the senor plug...
