Question... Who thinks it is time for a 2jz?

[Hoppy]

Jip, almost done fitting a 1jz1

The 1JZ is exactly the same motor, but because it's not bored and stroked to the max, they do not have cranckshaft and overheating problems, more than enough power and much cheaper to buy.

Decided to replace with another 7MGE, including standard computer and wiring.

Motor being delivered on Friday... can't wait!!

[Mr_B]

Peet, would the 1jz or 2jz be a better option?? Still a straight 6, but much newer design. Parts are becoming scarce for the older M series engines.

[peetvdw]

I would rather go for a lexus v8 or d4d if I have time and money for a new conversion. For now time is limited and the engine that I'm getting is from a local car with low mileage. Celica Supra with 100000 km.

Started my "new" second hand motor this weekend with original 7M wiring and computer. Much better than the previous motor with after market ECU.

Still need to wire the fan and spot lights then my baby is ready for a road test.

Well done Peet en baie geluk met die nuwe enjin.
What did you pay for it?

[peetvdw]

R 8000 including all wiring and accessories.

[Mars]

Uitstekend man. Wat van die kiekies????

[peetvdw]

Ek het nog nie tyd gehad vir kiekies nie... wil eers die lux was ook.

Hier is een waar ek en my oudste seun besig is om die ou motor uit te haal.

Het geen idee hoekom die foto op sy kant is nie. lol

[Mars]

Nee hy lyk reg. wat gaan jy met die ou engine maak?

[peetvdw]

Ek gaan hom met die tyd uitmekaar haal en reg maak, wel dit is op die oomblik my plan. :)

[Mars]

Ja dit is wat ek sal voorstel. Op daardie manier kan jy nog van jou kostes verhaal.

Very nice camping site... - Silver Rocks

I would recommend standard wiring for anybody running a 7MGE motor. (I haven't played with anything but Spitronic and Spitronic is really a cool system but to get it as good as factory settings is )

[Bulletjie-3]

Baie geluk Peet. Laat weet n bietjie hoe die kraglewering en petrol verbruik verskil tussen die 2 ecu's.
Het jy al n dyno gedoen?

Silver Rocks het spoggerige ablusies ne?
