    Question for the 1.5jz guys

    smaller valves = more torque, larger = more HP..... I know, here comes the "that's bullshit" shit storm

    re-run your calculations, 1.5mm MHG will be more than 9.0:1 by my numbers... Also, stock twins will choke your motor. They are tiny and flow a lot less than a 3L motor will, but it sure will spool them up quick. You should make 7psi at idle, LOL. I would think about running an AFPR as well.

    has anyone had good success from an alternate to Dynamat?

    That's what I figured Dave. Same concept, simple shit to accomplish it. I'm going to but about 75 linear feet of 1/16" x 36", then I can layer it in as required. I think I can get some really good results

    has anyone had good success from an alternate to Dynamat?

    I think that the cost of Dynamat is rediculus, so I have been looking for an alternative. When you break it down, all that it is a rubber/neoprene sheet that sticks to the floor and absorbs vibrations. Here is what I have found..... http://www.rubbercal.com/Soft_neoprene.html 36" wide x...

    I got to thinking this morning. I bought my JZA clip back in mid '06....

    I would love to know what you paid for your 7M, but then again, it would probably make me faint....

    For those with a 1.5JZ using GE Parts

    one more add: Even if you are using a 2JZ-GTE pistons (or motor), you still should calculate your cylinder volumes to determine your MHG thickness. The 1JZ head has a smaller dome than the 2JZ head, so there it has less quench area, therefore your C/R is not going to be the same as if you used...

    I got to thinking this morning. I bought my JZA clip back in mid '06....

    and all that is still in my car from the original clip in the intake manifold, throttle body, valve covers, timing covers & hydrofan (the fan itself). Everything else has been replaced. $3,000 is a lot for just those parts.....

    Lightened flywheel question

    additional weight NEVER adds to performance, it ALWAYS reduces performance

    how much would you pay for my car

    just my opinion, but take the time and invest a little more money to get what you want out of it. Ditch the antenna & get a new retractable one, go thru your engine comartment and organize it (wiring / vacuum lines), get the dents & paint fixed, replace / repair the worn items on the interior...

    what killed your last motor thread

    which line burst? The one going to your AFPR? What was damaged? Sounds like you smashed a ringland or two if you're putting that much power through a block with stock pistons.

    Not sure of the part number, but Aaron sells them. He has a local company rebuild them, IIRC. Good call on the TT oil pump too, the crank position sensor is kinda important ;). I had the teeth tack welded onto the sleeve as added protection
