I was SOOOO expecting you to say # 1 was "engine swap" 😂 glad you didn't go there. But the fuel pump access hole..... I may have to fight you on that one!!!😂😂😂
I was expecting some suspension upgrade. Before I put new coils on mine the car was leaning badly in corners after 35 years it’s expected ….. even on “Sport”
THANK YOU, Freddy! I really needed this info. Currently tackling a 1jz swap but when its done im gonna need to really tackle this list. Much appreciated, man.
I think the stock 6v/12v fuel setup is fine. Run lower fuel volume at lower loads and then switch to 12v for power. Helps keep the pump quiet at cruise and fuel temps lower. It's like an early form of PWM fuel pumps.
Im running 8 piston calipers from the e55 amg in the front. very happy with them, but they are pretty heavy with the 360mm rotors. 2 more "cheap" options for rear brakes: I've tried Mk4 Supra turbo rear calipers with mk4 rotor, which works good. Also Evo 8 rear calipers fit with 2004 Impreza 5 lug rotors. The Impreza rotors need to be center bored from 58.1mm to 60.1mm. Brake booster: WFX motorsports makes a brake cylinder upgrade using a billet adapter for a bosch brake booster that is commonly found on the Tesla S pre facelift. Comes with wiring loom, guide and everything you need. Works really nicely and the proportioning is good. I'm running the bosch ibooster and the brake pedal feel is amazing compared to the old booster in the mk3.👍
The whole damn car is a rabbit hole. I'm a year into the build and I keep finding little things that would make it better. About to start wiring the Haltech Nexus R3 once the motor is finished and I paint the subframe/control arms. Still need to finish the fuel system too...oh yeah and paint the whole car
Yes these cars are not for the weak spirited or the unmotivated, theyre not an easy stage 1, 2 ,3 bolt on kind of car. Dont give up though, youll love it when its back on the road :D
The ecu capacitor leaking issue is a common TOYOTA problem, not JZ problem. It starts in mid to late 80s. Early to mid 80s ECUS had capacitors that don't leak. It can also be fixed easily if caught before leaking too badly.
Do you think performance brake pads and steel braided lines would be adequate for a street car? I ask because I know you will have seen the difference between that and stock brake feel. I just hate to have to ditch my 2 sets of stock wheels and start over. Great video by the way! every mk3 owner should watch this.
@@GodlikeGTZ better pads and steel lines will help a little bit, that doesn't fix the potential reliability issue though. I can't remember if the Mercedes brake upgrade fits stock 16 wheels or not, but I know my rear brake upgrade requires 17inch wheels
I've been on the fence about what ECU I should get and ECUmaster makes a plug and play kit but I don't know anyone that tunes ECUmaster stuff. Wiring and electrical stuff is the area that I'd be more nervous about messing up myself or trusting someone else to not mess up. Really wish Haltech had a plug and play option for the 7M though.
I have not done any digging, but just because Haltech doesnt make a plug n play harness, doesnt mean one doesnt exist, we used a BOOMSLANG harness to make the Elite 2000 plug into my soarer 1JZ harness.
@@PoorManMods I have seen BOOMSLANG on DriftHQ but hadn’t ever heard about them so I was wary about their products but I think I might look again to see if they have a plug and play setup for Haltech and 7M. I’m pretty sure they had one for Link.
Would you ay a lot of this information will be the same for the 1G-GTE motor variant? Awesome videos btw I just bought a bit of a branfind MK3 1G-GTE so been looking for info where I can!
Im battling stock ecu issues on my jza70. I tried sending my blitz ecu to the guy in texas... $700 later and it wont hot start... back to my spare ecu... it will hot start but runs like shit sometimes 😅
i learned a lot. thanks for the video. i have a question regarding the zz coils. is there a specific ZZ coil coil part # or off a certain vehicle that you recommend for my 2JZ ??
What brake booster upgrade do you recommend wend doing the bbk? I reed the 4runer will work, but I see mixed opinions on what year to use and to make sure is a doble diaphragm, Thank you.
@@PoorManMods ECU, full 7M rebuild w COP and FFI, Fuel System, and brakes front and rear. All suspension and sub frame bushings.. Its all starting to go back together.

Hahahahaha aren't you proud of me for not saying anything negative about the 7M?! 😅😀
OMG dropping the tank is not that bad!!! 🤣 Fight me 😝
@@PoorManMods dropping the tank isn’t horrible just getting the lines apart without destroying them almost impossible

Youre very welcome, good luck with your build :D
Nice vid, as always. Was just gonna say that the OEM fuel pump switches between 9 volts and full system voltage, rather than 6 volts.
Ahhh ok, either way bad and get rid of it 😅

Ecumaster FB group has a lot of support. A lot of 7M guys run EMU black, including me. I would say it's geared towards the DIY guy.

I am currently out of stock but have a new shipment arriving in a few weeks
What's the Standalone ECU that you use?
Tks.
What brake booster upgrade do you recommend wend doing the bbk? I reed the 4runer will work, but I see mixed opinions on what year to use and to make sure is a doble diaphragm, Thank you.
none, my booster is stock and the brakes feel great :)
I’m bidding on one through cars and bids. 88. I’ve always wanted one due to it always being the first car I would buy in the first gran Turismo.
Does the rear brake upgrade work with stock rims?
@@thetommantom you need 17" wheels minimum

The way walbros fail because of them being fake drill the hole and patch it. Use small screws.
You speak to much man just get to the damn point already.
Sorry this is UA-cam, not tiktok. If i didnt elaborate people would have more questions
