my sc400 1jz swap finally
#20
ah..the infamous downpipe/turbo killer. If you dont mind your turbos blowing and are planning to replace them, keep the downpipe on. If you dont have plans for replacing them I would suggest taking that downpipe off because those turbos WILL blow soon, and thats guarenteed.
Other than that, while the engine is out still I would replace front and rear main seal along with cam seals, timing belt, and water pump. Its a hell of alot easier doing maintanance when the motor is out on a stand vs inside a car. Just trying to help you out since ive been there myself.
GL with everything and nice build.

here's the pic of the two pcv valves old one on the right
Also the spark plugs are NGK Platinum Spark Plug 7088 http://store.driftmotion.com/static/...rkplug7088.php
And I do have to say they werent lying when they said this motor had low mile it really does and there was nothing smashed on it at all. And the company is commited to keeping a 100 percent feed back and will do what ever they can to keep you happy. They forgot my igniter and I sent them a email saying If I dont get one I would be forced to leave a negitive feed back. I was contacted they next day and had the igniter in three days so yea there a decent company from what I can tell but I dont actually start it till next mounth so we will see.
