    For those with a 1.5JZ using GE Parts

    Let me add, after the calculations I ran, a 2.0mm yielded an 8.6:1 C/R. I chose to use a thinner MHG so I could bump it up to 8.9:1 because I have a stand alone ECU and wanted more torque (which it does!). With that said, treat this as bullshit info and do your own calculations to determine...

I thought I had burned a hole...

    Power Steering Idle Up Valve

    I think what aphxero was laughing about is the fact that he is trying to incorporate a 7M piece on a 1JZ. Why?

    LOL, tomorrow will be my 1st car show :-)

    I have a few other things first. Mostly, new interior & ARZ rear brakes.

    Toyota HG design and power capability?

    the 7M head gasket has always been made of composite material, never metal as the 2J's. It failed because the lack of torque as airhead pointed out

    LOL. The Supramania stickers gave me 2,346 more WHP :icon_razz Jay hooked me up with another PS pump. He overnight mailed it to me, in fact. He and others like him are the reasons I sport SM stickers proudly. ---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM...

    JZ coils and standalone EMS's

    I'm happy as hell with the 1zz's. My plugs are gapped .030" & running 19psi without a hiccup. I had a lot of spark issues with the 1JZ coils, but that seems to be a thing of the past

    LOL, tomorrow will be my 1st car show :-)

    Sorry, I'll get them soon, I'm on a bit of a timeline to get some repairs done. My son flies in tomorrow & I want to drive to the airport to pick him up. Seriously? Who are you? We must be long lost friends to make a bold statement like that, but the time we met must have slipped my mind.....

    CT26 T-67 Super mega hyper turbo wtf?

    I've been told several times that the CT's shaft is tiny when compared to other turbos. Mind you, I've never pulled one apart to look at it, so I might be a victim of misinformation......

    It has more to do all that mass from the large wheel placing a massive amount of torsional stress on the CT's small shaft....

    JZ coils and standalone EMS's

    I was thinking more of setting it at 2.25 - 2.5 m/s, but now even that might be too much. I'm going to have to do some digging on this on, COPs aren't cheap

    JZ coils and standalone EMS's

    Randy/Honestabe/Suprahero (even IJ): I've tried to find the dwell time for the 1zz coils on the 'net, but I haven't had much luck finding concrete info. How many m/s of dwell are you running? I've seen 1-2m/s for JZ coils, but these aren't JZ coils. I have 3.5m/s dialed in now, but I think...

    Hahahaha, Jay has had a few clutches, hasnt he. :D Well, I took 1st place. Only people that entered had votes, and out of the 112 cars that entered, I took 97 of the votes. With that said, the field wasn't too strong. Unfortunately, I have no pictures. I was bummed because I burned out a...

    The Army unit I'm in is putting on a car show with all the locals invited as part of a "you're home" celebration to help people decompress from our deployment. Thanks to Jay (Suprahero) and his partner Ricky, my car is looking & running freakin awesome. I have been trying to tackle a few minor...

    My After-Market Fog Lights... Nothing Special

    WOW, those look great, almost OEM. I would have never thought they weren't had you not said anything. Clean up that random wire & you're set.
