Splendid work!

How´s the law in Finland when it comes to modifications on the car? Will it pass the MOT with a 1jz-swap, or do you have to perform some kind of re-registration ?

Thanks Lettut!

Yes, there can be 50% changed stuff in your car. And my modifications goes around 30-40%. When i get finished i need to "modification" register it. When adding turbo u need to have dynopaper for horsepowers, there can be about 20% more than in factory car. I havent never before done anything like this, so im just learning myself all the time. Before i started i asked registration center about can i do this kind of modified car, and then they calculate everything and said its ok. If the car is 2001 --> it will be a lot harder to get registration modified car. It need all kind of paper to prove modifications etc... But mine is 1998 so it doesnt need anything else than dynopaper for hp.

Have you seen The Fattis red Soarer with 950hp 2jz. Thats is also legal registered in here :

Cutted off seal lip and then using screw to pull off rear seal, carefull not to scratch crankshaft.
New seal from genuine toyota full gasket set.
Braking front of the engine
Taking parts to clean them, and then changing new seals and gaskets. Previous owners hasnt taken good care of this awesome engine Replacing waterpump and thermostat. Timingbelt and tensioners was changed 25tkm and looked ok so not changing them now. Also keeping block and head together because they are just fine.
Checking everything is ok and changing new camshaft front seals. Too long oil change periods cause carb buildup.. Im gonna flush this when i get it running condition, and change oils few times.

New waterpump didnt have this so i cleaned old one and put new o rings

Checking valve clearance (ex 0,25mm-0,35mm and in 0,15-0,25mm all was ok.
New gaskets to valvecovers and for bolts


Valvecovers and bolts with new gaskets
