that was what I was referring to.. lol I got my OPs mixed up.

My 7mgte shortblock cost 2800.00 delivered. That didn't include the head and us Canadians pay more then Americans (cause we have 1/10th the population?) If it's a good 7mge (used, not built), I would expect it to cost at least 600.00. Regardless what you get, try your hardest to make sure its a...

Odd.. I don't see the new video... or are you just pumping us up? :)

Im actually a little bit scared.. lol. My wheels are not currently setup for an over 300 rwhp build (just Yokohama 10" on the rears). 300 would kick the bottom out in 3rd if I wasn't careful with the 57 trim, so I can imagine that they wont hold well at 400+. I do have a second set of wheels to...

What I mean by not native is MA70 doesn't come with jz engines. I think you have to replace the ECU as well (although I am not an expert on jz swaps, nor have I done one yet, so I am just going on what I "think" from second hand info and a very poor memory). I do know that the JZ swaps I have...

I had a bodyman do it for me... he's excellent with that. I have absolutely no body skills... My car is all professionally done. I decided not to do anything myself after I ran into my first home mechanical issue. I don't want the headache of guessing what idiot thing I did that is causing the...

Evo are supposed to be plug and play as well, but I have no experience with that. As long as they are low impedance should all be good. I don't know if you actually "have to" do the injectors at the same time as the AFM. I have never looked at just replacing the stock with the Lexus AFM...

Yeah, Reg wants to do the tune, so he is off doing fun stuff until March :) Trans has to be installed, turbo is up, exhaust should just be simple, test pipe and mock up done. I bought a 88 engine harness to 90 ECU patch cable for the HKS Fcon Vpro harness and swapping in a 90 ECU to do idle...

Cars gonna be in shop until end of March.. at least its heated.. lol some pics of engine bay (with powder coated intake and valve covers)

Click on my build thread (above my sig pic)... first or second page of the build shows them...

Spec A and Spec B... are you talking Shine Auto rear bumper addons? They have a website (google Shine Auto Project) with pics showing the addons. I think I have Spec A... lol.. I cant remember right now.

1jz will use the R154 transmission (may even be able to use the W58, but I don't recall anyone using it) assuming this is a 5 speed. I think the bell housing needs to be swapped out for that though. 2jz is probably better though (more common) but I am not an expert on that... lol. Lots of...

Curious... did you try to clean your AFM with brake cleaner prior to having issues?

JDM 7MGTE isn't that hard to get, if you cant find one local... I have one in my red 88. However... remember.. if you get a Japanese engine, its sat for a long time on a salty dock. you gotta redo the seals and gaskets. If you can, do a MHG with any 7M using ARP studs prior to dropping it into...

Sometimes, finding the problem is important... sometimes not. If the engine is indeed seized, probably not important at this stage. (unless your going to be using any oil related parts off your dead engine) Normally, I would think there would be an oil trail and a puddle to show you where it...

Thought I answered it.. maybe I rambled too much. Stock CT26 with Stock AFM - fuel cut is at 12 psi at high altitudes. 10-11 psi at sea level. That's just nature of the beast with a stock ECU. 550 injectors/Lexus AFM upgrade is to get around that.

AFPR = fuel pressure regulator. Not needed, but nice to have (Got mine from Driftmotion). with stock AFM/stock injectors the max PSI for fuel cut (from all my research) is 12 psi, but can be less depending on elevation. You can shim the wastegate to achieve this on the stock ct26 (ghetto in my...

Yes... the 12 volt mod (if I understand it correctly) is simply shorting the terminals on the passenger side of the engine bay so that it runs 12volt full time. (well.. its a bit more complex than that.. but that's kinda what I think in my head). I didn't do that with mine (running Denso MKIV...
