Cleaned up the 1.5jz a little

[aphxero]

Just thought I'd share. I never clean my car so it's a big deal to me

Changed out crappy hks yellow filter to the 3 layer. Much better filter but still not great.

Powerfc is going on soon also. Gonna max out 550s

hows that valve cover setup working out for you? Seems like it would get a ton of crap in the turbo that doesn't need to be there. Engine bay looks nice though, I'm sure that car is a blast to drive!

Well I've been meaning to put on a catch tank. It doesnt really puke oil or anything and crankcase suction is important to me so it's staying. The valve stem seals are old and crappy though cuz I was tyoo lazy to change them. Smokes a little on startup sometimes. I don't really care but everyone asks me about it lol.

Car is totally rad to drive. hks twin plate/r154/trd 2way in 4.30 gears. Makes 15psi boost at 3100 rpm. So rad.

nice work. I would dip that power steering reservoir in some bleach to whiten it out. Yellowish makes it look old...
Nice Cressida too..
