The 2jzgte runss a higher cooling system pressure than a ka and the stock ka rad cap is only rated for 13psi you need a 16psi cap or you will have problems.

1.2 to 1.4 bar radiator cap and never look back!

I know this is more 1JZ related.

But anyone use this intake manifold from driftmotion?

Welcome to Driftmotion!

If so, what did you do to make it work?!

I've got two Greddy gauges in the pillar now (boost/oil) and the AEM wideband on the dash. I'm getting rid of that, and getting an NGK wideband, which comes with a box instead of a gauge. So I was going to make a panel in the console for a water gauge, and that wideband readout. Can't think of anything else to put in there...

About 45 seconds into this video you can see my layout. Only difference now is I no longer have the Apexi EBC, I have the HKS.

Search this thread I'm positive someone has an install pic on here of it

[Mr. Phonso]

For those running AN lines for their fuel system, what fittings did you use at the beginning of the system to tie into the fuel tank? I was thinking of starting the AN lines from where the rubber hoses exit the fuel sending unit. Are there adapters out there that will allow the rubber OE hose to clamp onto a AN fitting?

use -6 lines and screw clamps with a stock pump. run those lines to a surge tank and run a nice external pump using -8 feed and -6 return.

sorry i don't have a pic but i run clamps on the tank -6 an to the surge tank then -8 to filter then pump then rail and -6 back to the surge tank.

Run push lock A.n. fittings to hook up to your fuel line.

I looked up push lock fittings and got these:



I was wondering if there is an adapter that has the end closer to this style:

Would be great

i plan on using this top hat Powerhouse Racing Fuel Pump Hanger for Nissan 240sx, Skyline R33, R34.

[Mr. Phonso]

Wow that hanger looks very nice. But the stock fuel sending unit with a aero 340 pump should do me fine for my power goals. Just gotta find the right fittings to use that will allow me to start my AN lines from the rubber hoses that come off the FSU, as that is the most straight forward option that I can see.

[turbo-2ns]

iv had problems with the aeromotive 340, it falls off on the top under boost, i will be using the bosch 044
here is a good comparison chart

yes, the bosch 044 is the way to go.

[turbo-2ns]

yes tried and true have probably used over 100 and never had one problem

Having worked at a Toyota dealer I know for a fact that the Toyota coolant has a lot of additives in it. One for lubricating the water pump, one additive is basically a sealant additive that crusts up any time there is a leak to prevent you from losing a lot of coolant on a small leak. The coolant when it hits dry air will form like a crusty material to seal leaks. If you've seen older toyota models and see all the red crap that usually builds up around the edges of the radiator hoses where they connect to the radiator and water necks. That is what that does. This is a property directly related to the toyota red coolant. Lastly is the cooling additives added. Which is why you will see that it will run slightly cooler with that coolant. The toyota coolant is in my opinion probably one of the more advanced coolants on the market.

Its good stuff.

[JohanM]

^^^^ yeah hes right, i would not put anything else in the system.


here is what i accomplished last night, was waiting on the vvti gear o-ring to come in and reassemble the engine, today im getting the thermostat valve cover washers and an oil can, and then try to find a hose for my rear turbo oil drain to clear the new motor mount bracket.

[Mister.E]

Where is the cheapest place to acquire a TRD thermostat for a 1JZ?

[JohanM]

if you can get a part number you might be able to find one for a decent price on villagetoyotaparts.com

[2muchboost]

Turbo-2ns would you mind sharing the fuel setup/HP/ and provide more info on the issue with the pump? I have installed 2 of these in-tank as I have seen the data you provided but know of a few people that have run twin in-tank units and have had great success. Very interested on your feedback. Tx

Get the Mishimoto one
I'll be switching over to that one and its also 20$ cheaper and comes with a warranty

first car was a civic was on 93oct id2000s -6an feed returned threw stock feed(common setup used at under 700whp) on a walbro the car started running out of fuel at a little over 500whp, switched to the stelth 340 turned the car up and the car started falling off around 550ish switched to a bosch and the car made 780

second car was a civic on e85 id2000 -8 feed -6 return didnd know what the pump was till after words, at 440 the car hit a brick wall and afr fell off fast he said its not the pump it has the twin aero 340s in it , told him to chang to bosch 044s and he was wery , came back the next week and the car put down a little under 900 and he left happy


i have had freek pumps iv seen 700hp on a walbro and iv seen boshes that wouldent make over 600 but have also had single 044 make 850
my rule of thumb is upto 500hp run a walbro up to 700 one bosch over 700 2 bosch or a weldon

i perfer not to run twin walbro/aeros/DW because if you loose one most the time you loose the motor since it will back feed threw the bad pump
with ath bosch it has a internal check valve you loose a pump it goes lean but not as bad

[BoostedVR4]

I have my motor, and picked up the tranny/mount kit/manifold, etc from Freed yesterday. Also snagged a PTE 6266 last night...

[Flicktitty]

X2 the new mishimoto thermostats seem to be pretty good! Plus they are cheaper then the TRD ones.

I ran dual walbros for a year and hated the setup went down to one DW300 pump and haven't looked back, atleast till the new DW400+ comes out. might upgrade lol.

Everyone is running that 6266. What A/r did you get?

[2muchboost]

Gotcha....Thanks Turbo-2nr. I had two Bosch 044 but sold them since they are a PITA to deal with In-Tank on our stupidly shaped Fuel Tanks. I did not want to run the 044s externally so I picked these pumps up from Freed. I also know a few guys at M&S (Mostly 2JZ guys) running these but none that I can think of running 2000CC injectors.

I plan on running 1200-1300CC injectors....any chance the higher flow/demand injectors may be causing the added stress on the pumps making them fail? I read the article you posted and they do seem to taper off at the higher PSI range.

[turbo-2ns]

the higher cc injectors will hurt nothing , they only suply as much fuel as you need them to

[Mister.E]

i thought the mishimoto thermos ran too cold? i have one on my KA right now and it opens up at an even colder temp than the nismo thermo.

[PG BOOSTED]

how many of you guys have used suprastore.com?

You want it to run a little cooler
especially with the cooling issues we have in these cars

I have a cx racing radiator w/ water and water wetter mix with the Mishimoto thermo and I don't plan on any cooling issues

Don't, tons of bad reviews on SupraForums, what you looking to buy?
