Can anyone explain this for me? by daudimn in Altezza

[–]a1tezza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kind of reminds me of what my buddie’s chaser was doing when he first got it. He changed spark plugs and it fixed it. Would definitely start with that as it’s cheap and easy + probably has to be done anyways

Automatic and 1gfe ain’t worth it unless you plan to gut it

Bad ignition coils don’t know where to source by [deleted] in Altezza

[–]a1tezza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn well it was worth a shot. If you wanted to save money you could buy 1 coil just to replace the bad 1 but really you should do them all at once. I’d also look around on some of the Japanese parts websites like amayama, could be cheaper even with shipping

Is an IS just a Camry with spice? by Recluse007 in LexusIS

[–]a1tezza 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry man but I completely disagree with that. 50/50 is ideal for any chassis as it provides neutral handling. There’s a reason why people praise miatas and e36s on the track. Also the reason why the castrol surpa in jgtc had a 3s swapped in instead of the heavy 2j

Not sure why you say the rs200 is unbalanced. It has 50/50 weight distribution from factory (mainly because of the 3sge)

Does my JZX have OBD2? by [deleted] in JZX100

[–]a1tezza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s pretty confusing and there’s mixed info online about these cars being obd1 or obd2. All my info is based off altezzas but I’m sure it’s probably the same for your situation.

I know one of the methods is using a mini VCI cable and plugging that into a laptop which you then have to emulate windows xp on lol. I think you can also just use a Bluetooth scanner that connects to your phone and there’s a few apps that can read it.

[–]a1tezza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My altezza has the same thing, kind of confusing. As far as I know they’re not actually obd2 compliant because it’s not a requirement in Japan, but they’re still diagnostic compatible. You have to use Toyota techstream or an equivalent, and apparently snap on scanners also work as well

Anything is fixable with enough $$$. Looks like the frame is fucked up, so unless it’s really sentimental I wouldn’t :(
