some guy at the dealership worked at Toyota for like 20+ years and tried telling me the Tacoma has a 22R.... i was like... sure... whatever
i think that they think its just a 22re for the fact that it is still 2.4l displacement only reason i would give them the benifit of the dought... sure ill buy ur 2rz i mean.... 22r
My old boss had a 91 turbo supra. He always tried telling people it had "the 2jz motor from japan in it with 50k miles. And it runs 12 lbs of boost because of a trick with adding washers to the blow off valve." Wasn't a 2jz. Didn't have a blowoff, it had a wastegate. Which wasn't modded. I'd riddin and watched his boost gauge. He hit about 7-8lbs. Was fast though. But geez...some peoples kids. LOL.
the washer trick does work, you put it inside the wastegate on the spring so it preloads it and it takes more psi to open it, If you buy a turbonetics evolution waste gate it will come with diff springs and about 6 washers, 2= 1psi I think
oh i know all about the trick. but he was full of ****. haha...it didnt even have a modified exhaust or intake until me and a guy that worked there made him let us. block was probably the original one too. unfortunately a few of us had similar era toyotas so we would prank his car. he was like 6'4" so we would move his electric seat all the way up and forward. he'd have to kneel down to adjust it before he could even get in. we did it to all his cars. i even took the supras shift knob and rubbed it all over my sweaty....uhh, car parts...then put it back. we never told him.
Ahh you guys dont get it the 22r is famous of being the most reliable 4cyl motor ever, maybe he's looking for some sucker to beleive him and buy it.
Hahahaha yea the good ol washer trick. All it got me was 3psi. Nothing like 9 pounds of boost! Gawd i cant wait till i can afford to build up my motor!
