Dyno with a GT4088 with stock ignition and VPC emanage losing spark at 5000-5500rpms running 9AFR pig rich after 2000rpms in 2005. I never redyno'd after installing a GT4067R because of tuning issues with new standalone and tuner detonating new motor.

2JZGE pics
This is my New build of a 2JZGE with a rear sump that I bought from a JDM importer. You can tell by the picture that it is fresh off the "JDM" boat. Don't get it twisted I am not one to believe that JDM is the be it all to end all places to buy a 2JZGE with low mileage. It came with a rear sump and I could not resist getting every thing including the AC, power steering pump, and alternator. I ordered the Fly wheel from Ebay $198.00 lighten steel. The oil relocation block is an Earl's relocation billet aluminum adapter.

I took the stock coolant line to the back of the block and welded a -8 flared AN JIC for the coolant return, and welded the same fitting to the water jacket that houses the thermostat inlet to the block.
I also welded a -6, and a -8 fitting to each end of the fuel rail.
A 2JZGTE rail will not "WORK" as you can see with the red fuel rail it looks good but must be made specifically for the 2JZGE or it is a no go!

Here you can see pictures of the IS300 oil pump bolt with a -4 BSP fitting. You can also see the M14 -6 fitting for the power steering pump. You can also see that I took out the oil sender and replaced it with the relocated Autometer sender, and braided feed to keep from ever having to get behind that air conditioning unit in the future The IS300 bolt is courtesy of Elmhurst Toyota Curt Aigner for 25.00 That is the exact number for those wanting to order it in the future.

This was a custom power steering line that I had made by an Aeroquip dealer that had hose on both ends that went to the power steering box, and the power steering gear on the 7MGTE.
I removed the hoses and will put it back on the frame where it runs under the block near the rack and pinion. This is already mounted there stock wise but modified with welded -6 AN JIC fittings.
The IS300 oil feed fitting will have a hose that will connect to this pipe on the left side of the block and the right side of the block will connect to the turbo inlet feed. Each end is equipped with a -4 reducer on the -6 welded fittings.

flywheel bolts 1JZ R154 bell housing
This is a picture of the 2JZGTE fly wheel bolt, and 1JZGTE bell housing for the R154.
I got the Bell Housing from Supra Store, and I ordered the fly wheel bolts from Elm Hurst Toyota ask for Curt Aigner he is the man trust me. I have him on speed dial. Just give information order and go....fast shipping no hassle ordering!
For those of you wondering how much torque for the fly wheel bolts I found out form Curt that you torque these bolts to 36lbs a square inch.
