I do have it running. It's running pig rich but it's running. I have installed some Greddy adjustable cam gears to try and get more power out of the cams. They're suppose to be at -9degrees BTDC and I had them at TDC. Now I can hopefully get more than the 371 that I dyno'd at. I also had to replace my timing belt tensioner. It was weak and I put a new one on.

I will be posting some dyno videos up sunday. We're having a mini meet Saturday, but now it looks like the high is going to be around 40 degrees.

 

[The Reaper]

ahhhh ok i see now....well good luck man.....and damn thats cold. our LOW is 40 lololol

How reliable is the 1jz motor once it's been put in? I'm really considering doing the 1jz swap sometime.

It's the most reliable motor ever built.................well, I can't prove that, but it is a very well built and designed engine. I did my swap because it's JDM tyte yo.................:biglaugh:
