    SPEEDO FAILURE

    There is a little pigtail next to your tranny for the speedo cable that always breaks I have replaced them many times takes like five minutes. It costs like 11 dollars and you have to get it from toyota. Just look under the car from the tranny back and you will see a foot long section that has a...

    Bad ECU?? "PICS"

    I had the same problem with mine But I just replaced the Caps and you would not beleive the difference. Mine just started doing it all of the sudden and from what I have heard they all do it eventually and it took me like 15 minutes to replace all five of them. Nice thing is once you replace...

    japanesestarmotor?

    I have seen better deals on front clips really. I paid 1900 for my front clip and I got all of the needed stuff like the ignitor, intercooler, intercooler piping and such. You got to think into places like that yes the motor is all there but it takes a lot more than that to get it up and...

    1jz running rich with white smoke

    OK will it be noticable if I were to crack open the case on the ECU. Or is it something that is way into the circuit board. I would say it was the turbos but the boost never bleeds. And you can smell it, it is like raw gas at the rear of the car. So if were to just get it fixed then what do I...

    1jz running rich with white smoke

    I have searched through the treads and most people have had this problem but have a single mod or something else I havent done much. It started the other day my boost controller is turned off and removed. The car comming to a stop started idleing ruff and missing like on one or more cylinders...

    My new project :)

    The reason why there is mad flameing for it is because they answer the same question over and over again. After a while of answering the same thing wouldnt you get tired. I know there is a how to thread here for it because I have seen them. The 2JZ is a nice motor dont get me wrong but with a...

    My new project :)

    Nice buy! I remember when mine looked like that I thought I would never finish but it really pays off when you start it for the first time and see the finish of all of your hard work. LOL if you need a car to look at for where everything goes I will drive out to you and I also have a lot of...

    Found a good place for 2jz or 1jz it seems

    I remember doing my 1jz swap haveing the clip right there made it so much easier. The only part that took me a while was the wireing under the dash and even that didnt take very long. As for the price 2jz's are always expensive next to a 1jz and all the major difference that I have seen is 1/2...

    1jz Alternator charging problems, I need the experts

    There has been many ways to check the alternator on the car but if you check the battery while the car is running on the posts you should have like 14 volts. Then if you check the cables not the posts then you should have a match on the voltage. Sorry I install telecom batteries for a liveing no...

    1j exhaust mani. studs?

    Alright then you are right dont replace them unless they are bad. Dont want to start a argument I guess it would more or less be up to personal preference.

    Squeeks and groans from a old car

    I understand that part it isnt a problem the amount of boost that is produced has to be offset by additional fuel to support the larger amount of air to keep it from being rich. I already have someone to help me set up a map for the fuel curve I just need to know what is the best setup a Apexi...

    1j exhaust mani. studs?

    I wasnt really trying to compare mani bolts to Head bolts. I have worked for three different car companies includeing Ford, Honda, and Chevy as a mechanic and with every engine rebuild the book on pretty much every car they have says to replace the head bolts not to reuse them. That being said I...

    Squeeks and groans from a old car

    Is the Apexi AFC any good for this setup or is there a better one. I am also about to invest in a emanage blue. So will that take place of the AFC or just be another add to it. I found the original problem I removed the belt and took a look at the idler pulley it has a bunch of rust on the shaft...

    1j exhaust mani. studs?

    It is like your head bolts you are really supposed to replace them every time you remove them. They are made to take a certain amount of tensile strength put against them but once they are stetched and heated up as much as the studs there get I would just order some replacements and replace them...

    Sleeper Supra?

    Mine is a little unexpecting but I still wouldnt call it a sleeper. Most people in my town see older cars and just assume they are slow, the gy driveing his brand new 07 mustang GT thought the same thing when he pulled up next to me. All he said is "nice exhaust" I just said "yeah it is" he...
