Good writeup Andrew.

Here's a question out of curiosity. How fun do you think it would be to change the spark plugs later when required?

Edit: I'm not sure if it's my connection or PC, but at this point in time, those manual links are not working for me.

To change the spark plugs you will need to take everything off. :-P. Well the super charger that is.

Links are indeed dead, looking for some copies from SG and will upload them when I find them.

Changing the sparks will be just as fun even if I didn't have the supercharger (though I wouldn't have to fiddle with the belt). That's one of the reasons why I recommend the change! :) that being said, apparently there is a guy who has a Gen4 and claims he can change the rear bank plugs without taking anything off...

apparently toyota has a service tool that enables them to do it without removing the inlet manifold, this according to 2 of my trade teachers who were both toyota techs

Everytime Gen5s and 1MZ and S/C are mentioned together, part of me feels like crying....

Great write up Andrew, I'm sure alot of people will appreciate this.

Had a further look into the Hiace master brake cylinder and it can be found here: http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/p_G_1991_TOYOTA_HIACE_RZH103R-RBMRSQ_4702.html

Gave Toyota Parts a call and you cannot buy the plastic fittings separately, so the wrecker is still the best option.

Also asked about the Dyna Truck reservoir and they are end of line so you have to go to a wrecker. However, the reservoir should be the same on most/all HU30R and SU20R Dyna Trucks. The HU30R and SU20R models are pre-1985 which have the right reservoir. The 1985+ models have a square one.

thanks man.

Don't be too sad. I've been bored and I'm having a sniff around at the TRD kit for the Scion...! Nothing concrete, but it is good reading.

Another small update:

when replacing my struts this weekend, I thought it would be a good time to test (more so to confirm) whether the UltraRacing strut brace fits with the supercharger installed. Unfortunately the brace does not clear the supercharger belt. I was hoping it might sit underneath the belt but this is not the case as it sits on top of the belt.

So in summary go custom or the TRD brace.

It's not applicable to the 4-cylinder. 1mz-fe V6, NON-VVTi engines only.

you would be better off turbo'ing the 4cyl engine... but this would cost a LOT of money and require a LOT of time and effort.

maybe, but probably not. There might be issues with the whole RHD/LHD thing, different engine bay, etc, etc.

Nothing is EVER bolt on, not when it comes to FI.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
