What!? They made one for the 1mz?

Yes, here is the dual throttle body in my old RX 300.



The only benefit I can see is smoother airflow, considering its a single intake into two small throttle bodies and back into a single intake manifold.


Actually, the 1mz-fe vvt-i out of the avalon has the dtb's which, I THINK, goes into one, then splits into two again in the intake manifold. I have to take off the tb again to see how it exactly works, but I know for a fact that there's two sections in the intake manifold.

Am getting frustrated with the Celica.

Struts are new and fine, along with all the bumpers are new, springs are fine, new mounts, mount bearings, endlinks, ball joint, axles....

Still have thumps, thuds, clinks, and clanks.

I can't put a high power engine, if I can't even get the this junk situated....tired of the money dump.

Don't do that
If you've already replaced that much go through check your bushings an recheck all of your bolts
Never know something might have come back loose

True true, appreciate it.

I just sucked it up and jacked the car back up. I didn't tighten down the caliper when I re greased the pads. Oops.Just finger tight Thankfully easy fix. Makes a scary noise.

Now just this trans popping and good. Think I need to do the whole rods to. During swap time

Haha, definately tongue.gif But as we all know modding is a huge waste of money so I will be buying something and keeping it stock when I'm over there (And since I'm only going to have it for a few months a V8 sounds nice tongue.gif), and you don't have st205's so it won't be a 6GC tongue.gif Thinking of that... gah, I'm going to need to learn to drive on the wrong side of the road tongue.gif


In other news my eBay bargain JDM rain visors arrived this afternoon smile.gif But I haven't been bothered to open the box yet tongue.gif

I tightened the screw on the rear view mirror, kept flopping around. Not so much anymore. Also I learned you can rotate the mirror to where it's facing out the windshield. Guess what's getting flipped around the next time some dick with their HID's in reflector housings comes by? tongue.gif

And today my wiring plugs for my projectors arrived, and I bought a fiberglass repair kit for the two tabs that snapped in postage smile.gif

I bought my celica with the rear view mirror flopping around like no tomorrow. Never checked how to tighten it but maybe I will tomorrow. Lol.
