bayside_supra Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Hi everyone Nearly recovered financially from the lockdown now so getting ready to get the engine build on my car finished. Bottom end is next so I thought I would post up the list of parts that I will be ordering, to see if anyone had anything to sell. Crossed out things I have already got sorted. Let me know if you have anything. Cheers Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Think i'd be contacting Chris Wilson regarding the engine work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Reviews Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Karl, I'd personally get rid of the Titan oil pump and just get a new Toyota pump from TCB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 (edited) Or go with the PHR version instead. There is no way would I would be putting any money into the pocket of that shyster Nero or his business after they screwed over a customer when their mechanic made an illegal U-Turn, crashed his car and they washed their hands of all responsibility. It’s a principal thing more than anything else. I’d be going with Real Street or PHR for buying parts stateside that you can’t get off the shelf over here.

bayside_supra Posted June 14, 2020 Author Share Posted June 14, 2020 Karl, I'd personally get rid of the Titan oil pump and just get a new Toyota pump from TCB. I always thought upgrading the oil pump was a must when going down this route? Darren at Magnum Performance is doing all the work for me, he is arranging the machine shop also...

Mo Reviews Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Real Street along with various other high profile engine builders have been running 1000+whp 2JZs for many years on the standard Toyota oil pump with no issues whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bayside_supra Posted June 14, 2020 Author Share Posted June 14, 2020 I run an OEM oil pump on my Supra That’s interesting, the original one? Most of me is thinking it’s not crazy money for a Titan one so why skip it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Reviews Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 No, Lee puts a new OEM pump in when he does his builds. Aftermarket oil pumps are neither necessary nor proven like the OEM pump. You're trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist bud. Stick with the Toyota pump, tried and tested for decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayside_supra Posted June 18, 2020 Author Share Posted June 18, 2020 Thanks for all the advise guys, will definitely take it into consideration. The oil pump and main caps might change on the list. Guessing no one has anything to sell then?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
