1JZ is generally a more reliable motor. JZ-series (1JZ, and 2JZ) are known to be badass in lamest terms. If I had the choice of either a 7m or 1JZ i'd most likely go for the 1JZ. It supposedly to cost around $4k to $5k to do a complete running 1jz swap not including the car.

Kit looks super clean. I would definetly buy the kit if you offered in a set for an aftermarket intercooler thats not same side. Such as a 31"x12"x3" intercooler. Just a suggestion.

codes?

Overheat- BHG, fan clutch, thermostat, radiator cap. Search for BHG. Brake Vibration - Drive shaft is loose, bad center carrier bearing, wheels out of balance. You should only be able to push the driveshaft about an 1" radially at the carrier bearing. Ball joints - replace them!

Go to Toyota and buy new snap rings, wave washer, and washers for your car. Refer to TSRM for bearing hub assembly or there are a few threads on SF with pictures on assembly. Thing is you have to figure out how to search.

Ohh and go and buy all new snap rings, and washers for the throw out bearing assembly from Toyota. If you reuse the snap rings they will either break or come off the hub eventually.

Yes, it looks backwards. I have a factory clutch assembled in my garage, ill get pics. Keep in mind its only a picture so we could be wrong, more pics would be awesome!

You can buy a new Toyota sender and see if it works then. Thing is the factor water temp and oil pressure gauges are not accurate for anything. You need an adapter because the threads in your block are BSPT and the autometer sender is NPT. I plan on getting an adapter that is also a T so I...

If your throwing codes the ECU goes into loop mode, or in other words really rich to prevent the engine from killing it self. Just buy a new AFM, lexus housing would be a big plus! Sounds like you dont have a wideband, unless you are an experienced skilled tuner smell means nothing to you...

Throw out bearing is definetly backwards! Your clutch will fail after a few times or using it. The fork goes around the lip at the hub. There is an inspection plate on the bell housing, 2 12mm bolts drivers side. Grab the fork and give it a nice firm tug, should just pop out. After fixing...

Does it still make the sound if you put it in neutral at about 3K?

Tons of black smoke? Diesel like knocking noise?

On the way back from Sacramento from the night meet last night, the drivers side front wheel started making a weird noise, it was was pretty loud but uncreatable, it would just happen. Under acceleration and higher speed is when you could hear it the most. Well my buddy looked down and saw the...

Better.

Im planning on changing the oil before I leave for Sac if I go, its about time anyways. I've been looking under the cap alot, no white stuff at all. And there is no smoke or sweet smell of burning coolant.

If there is oil leaking into your cylinders around the plugs then its your valve cover gasket thats bad. And if oil can make it past all the threads on a plug then there is a different problem.

500rwhp 7m your going to need to rebuild the motor with strong bearings, nice pistons, maybe rods, ARP everywere, MHG, and everything needs to be machined and balanced, and a big turbo! Of course thats if you want it to last. 500rwhp 1JZ probably just a big turbo with all the supporting mods...

My car has only really ever over heated once because i had the electric fans on and i turned them off and forgot about it but that was last year. My motor was completely rebuilt less than 10K ago with a Cometic MHG. So I put the stock fan back on. I changed my coolant and since then there...

BIC Thunder catback FTW!

You cant get to 400rwhp without bigger injectors, pump, regulator, and a fuel computer. I honestly would probably go MAP ECU 2 over NEO.
