    1UZ swap complete. S366, Haltech, E85, etc.

    A JZ would take the longer pulls due to a higher redline but the 1UZ would jump head every time. That can change with an addition of cams and jeeez, what a race that would be. :ugh:

    1JZ Build Plan

    So it is safe to say 2-3K is your budget. Use the 7M. There is no way you will get a JZ at that price.

    1JZ-Intermittently Won't Start

    EDIT: I would vote starter connection. A lot of people forget the ground to the engine block and that can cause all kinds of crazy stuff. A chassis ground alone isn't enough. Take the starter to be checked out and rebuild if needed. I spoke to Ian about this and he told me Toyota did a...

    7M-GTE A/C Lines on 2JZ... Need help (yes i searched)

    Yes. I know Albert/Dustin(Can't remember which one) told me he had to notch the bracket. I will update this in a few minutes. It seems like you will have to cut a lot but have you tried to mount the compressor to the block with the pump. Something is not right as it looks to be off by a...

    What's The Dumbest Thing A Car Manufacture Has Done?

    Yeah, you have to pull the the intake to change the rear valve cover seals. I believe that's the same motor in the ES300.

    1JZ Build Plan

    You dont need cams and a 35R would be insane at your power level.

    BorHor's Makeover - Project Sideways

    Yes, that's true but if anyone can bring it back to what it was, I'm more than confident that Bor can.

    What's The Dumbest Thing A Car Manufacture Has Done?

    The excuse people use are the limitations by the emission standards. I find it BS, although, there are limitations, look at what Ford did with the mustang. I never liked the 4.6, I'm a 5.0 fan but this new model and Coyote motor is badass.

    R154 clutch for moderate-high TQ and hard use?

    Were you slipping the clutch a lot? I haven't seen someone do that to a flywheel with the ACT six puck, usually it will slip before that happens. HPF makes a Feramic disk that is specifically for drag and constant passes. I just sold one, it cost a pretty penny but gets the job done...

    What's The Dumbest Thing A Car Manufacture Has Done?

    I agree with both of you. That has to be a horrible motor. I did the alternator on it, not as bad but the radiator had to come out because it is so crammed. The engine temperature sensor is also a fun one. :ugh:

    If you are not sure on how to do this, send it to Albert.

    What's The Dumbest Thing A Car Manufacture Has Done?

    I know some circuit are tied into for a reason, so since the cruise control feature shuts off with a touch of the brake pedal, maybe it was tied into the brake pedal switch? :dunno: Would be nice to see the diagram.

    What's The Dumbest Thing A Car Manufacture Has Done?

    I despise the Northstar 32V, that motor is super hard to work on.

    Really, the clock dims? I have never paid attention to that, probably because my super bright cluster. LOL That would be the case but we have the lamp light for that which annoys me as everytime I see it, I check all the lights and everything is good. -__-

    What's The Dumbest Thing A Car Manufacture Has Done?

    So I was trying to figure out why a 2002 Sebring's A/C would not function. The A/C would not work, but after checking the continuity of all the wires I knew something had to be bad. The compressor relay had power and when jumped, the compressor would come on. The switches were replaced by a...
