could not figure out my boost leak for months now and last night / today i ripped out the old intake manifold one my buddys made for me and i found it had a half mm crack that was like 11 inches long on the weld under the bottom side of the plenum! hurrah! i found it! maybe i can go past 7 psi now? haha


anyyywho... ive retrofitted a upper jdm tt mani to my lower GE runner i had some of the lower flange shaved down, then i port matched it and welded them together did most of the work so all i had to pay for was the mani itself 175$ with all the sensors, tb, and do dads



just gotta plug a few vaccum ports and redo the IC piping on the tb side its way off compared to my old mani

 

THATS what a 2JZ-GE motor should have looked like!
I would even forgive the distributor fail if it came like this.

 

Looks very nice

 

Dizzy delete next... I Have all the parts ready to go for months now but that old boost leak that I had going on didn't motivate me to do it... But this changes everything!

 

Do you have any more pictures of the DIY? Ive been pondering this myself...but wasnt exactly sure how it would work out..

Great work! cant wait to see more

 

agreed would like to see how it all fits

 

grats bro! now I can pick your brain if needed since you solved your problem

 

Looks good

 

Did you end up using an MKIV Throttle cable?

 

right now im using the camry throttle cable but had to mod the bracket a bit i want to get a hold of a tt tc if possible
