^^^^^ see you are sh!tt!ng yourself . Andy PS and np Tom hope it helps.

Ok 2 of the engines where due to det on the No:6 piston usual rear 1 and as i was led to believe it is the same on the 2jz..BUT i could be mistaken . the other 2 where due to big end failure..and 1 of them was a 1.5jz which threw a bearing while being mapped at dastek..that engine had 6540 injectors in.and all the other stuff to try and keep things as cool as poss...but hey crap like that happens sometimes, when a car is being mapped and it was just 1 of them things..we just grew tired of putting replacement engines in the car...i guess 1 of them was also due to us, taking the boost up to 21psi and blasting it around to much but god was it fun and quick.. The way i look at it is...You want lots more power outta your car everyone has to be prepared to take a chance with the outcome 1 day, and sometimes it means killing engines...I'm sure there are PLENTY of people on here that have lost an engine and worse..an spent LOTS more than we did..it's the nature of the game..upping the power on a standard engine with mods that really cant handle it..is ALWAYS going to end up badly. As for johnd-mkiv... you take Chris's advice seriously, it is GOOD advice, and dont listen to people who rant about having 500/700bhp, running on standard blocks cause it just wont happen, well not for long as far as ew are concerned. As the old saying goes been there done it and had SOME good times doing it..but lost of heartache as well. Good luck mate on your project :0. Andy PS Ian yer right mate getting a DECENT 11jz is very hard so wear and tear is a BIG factor...but det is a MAJOR 1 on the engines we had...and hope your keeping well mate, and hows the sapphire stuff you drink these days . PPS we have a freind up here with a soarer who is on the board and his car is now set for mapping soon but he did it right and got his engine built..we hope to see that car producing something like 650+bhp..Kofi ain't you just sh!tt!ng yourself .

Well read thsi thread and i deff found this 1 funny... , Any engine will fail when it decide's to fail...no engine on the planet is totally safe thats why the rest of the sentence was finished of by.. . And thats what usually happens with the 1JZ a bit like the 2JZ..after about 4 engines, and 1x 1.5JZ hybrid we decided enough was enough. Oh and some of the things we did to try and stop the engine killing itself...FMC ...bigger injectors...water injection..using a mix of meth and water...water mod to rear end of the block...4" intake pipe to turbo...emanage blue (which to be honest is a piggyback and thats what it is a piggyback...and if your wanting RELIABLE power from a car get a proper EMU). It was mapped by a friend of mine who owns Dastek UK ..and he DOES know how to map..if anyone doubts that maybe they should ask Ian Chisholm on here as he has seen his mapping (Hi Mate ). We ran the car a lot down the 1/4 and if you do that then you are gonna get bit in the bum now and again, which we did..I aint saying the 1JZ isnt a good engine..cause it IS..just when i see people say oh sure the 1JZ will run 500+ all day long, sure it might for some but not for everyone..and as far as the Americans go..well i guess thats America for you ..dyno queen springs to mind...(sorry Derrek and Guy )..and thye are to VERY good friends of mine who are American and i talk to most days of the week..just to prove i DON'T hate Americans . As for what the car was running ...2jz boostlogic kit T61 we bought from Miguel and Terry on here....which we then had altered to sit on the 1jz head... What goes in the 1jz yep you might have guessed it..the 2 rear pistons just like the 2jz... Andy PS oh we got 485bhp at 17psi on a dyno..but hey thats dyno sutff and we all know what that means ..i could prob have went someplace else and got another 40/50 bhp for another 50 bucks..but i went to Dastek .

Brian No it was fooked when i bought it but hey thats life with cars. Andy

Ah But Michael your English and that just might be the diff ...well actually i was born in Doncaster ... Anyway mate thanks for the heads up i'll PM Term and see what he has Thanks again mate. Andy

Geo You would be passing right by my front door on the M77 prob, BUT i have to collect my bro from his work before we go over and he will need to change before we go over to dastek, as he will just be off a nightshift driving a rig down south . So would prob be best you head right over to the MacD's place :0 Hi Brian i wonder if i should piss Gerry of by running our car on the rollers . Andy

Brian Mghtnot make it that early as i have to collect the bro from work just before then. But will see you shortly after that. So wont make the 5 min cruise , but will see you there, oh and did you do that mod on the 21 pin yet ?. Andy
