Alex tries skiing for the first time at Lee Canyon 4/23/23
Переглядів 54Рік тому
This is my last and best run of the day on skis. I switched to my snowboard after this. Conditions at Lee Canyon on 4/23/23 were incredible for being so late in the season. I will definitely try skiing again, but I definitely felt more comfortable on a snowboard. Top speed on skis was 34mph for the day in the 5 runs I did. I would've definitely preferred to have a run or two down the bunny hill...
How to shim the valves on a 2JZ, 1JZ, and other toyota engines using shim over bucket style lifters
Переглядів 3,9 тис.2 роки тому
Here's a long video showing the process I went through to check and correct valve clearances on my built 2jzge engine by removing and replacing the valve shims with the cams still in place. I realized in editing that i didn't show how I used a digital caliper or micrometer to measure the shims to determine the shim sizing, but that should be self explanatory. Remove the shim, measure the existi...
IS300 NA-T Turbo - Idle and revving with Dezod AEM V2 standalone ecu connected to laptop
Переглядів 5832 роки тому
I had some time this weekend and I setup the Dezod AEM v2 standalone that has been in a box since before the pandemic. I wired up a p1300 simulator to avoid misfire codes (details on my.is site). I calibrated the ignition timing. I calibrated the TPS, CLT, and the wideband readings. The base calibration for the Dezod kit was good enough to start the car, but I had to tune the fuel table and som...

2001-2005 IS300 - How to wire navigation screen retrofit to open and close like oem
Переглядів 3,1 тис.2 роки тому
I pulled this information from my.is and I've tested this on my unit here. This is for the people who want to retrofit a tablet or digital dash to sit in the navigation housing and still have it power fold up and down. Note that this unit has the two connectors in it. I have seen another unit with only one connector and the wiring will be different for that.

    Hello, seems like you are extremely responsive to comments! So I thought I would ask if you could elaborate on a comment you made down below about needing to adjust hex screws on both sides to make the ecu happy. What exactly did you do? Unwind and wind in until what? The idle dropped? You adjusted both sides in and out and reset the codes and then checked again? Plan to do this on my 110 soon. Thank you in advance!

I dont use the slot for the tool use just the edge of the cup and use the slot to first clean with brakleen then compressed air to get the disk to pop out along with probes and magnet, there are 17 different shims you can get for about 15 bucks each also there is a chart that you can download to select correct ones>>>This is the BEST VIDEO I have Seen to Date on this subject...GOOD JOB DUDE on the Video!!!! keep posting :)

    Why would you do this instead of removing the cams after writing measurements for each lifter? It seems like a lot of tedious work for each valve you have to adjust this way.

    • @VegasAlex702
      @VegasAlex702 11 місяців тому

      This approach is mainly for replacing a few shims. If all of them need to be done, sure, it makes sense to remove the cams. The idea with this approach is that it can be done without removing anything but the valve covers.

      @kr4dh4x0r easy to check them with a feeler gauge for the smallest and largest feeler that'll fit into each valve and then you'll be able to determine how many are out of spec. The shims on the ends of the cams can be really difficult to get out with the cams in, but it's doable.
