Ok I called up MVAutomatics and they apologise for not replying to emails being flat out. I got quoted for the performance stage 2 - $480 1 week ETA turn around at present. The have been testing and Dyno testing the valve bodies for awhile and have found a solution for faster shifts etc. They change various springs for accumulators and within valve body and port the middle gasket, enlarge some holes etc. So the work sounds like Jeff Tsai's IPT/Level 10 Valve body They also want feedback from customers for the first 6 month period etc. Im sending my valve bodies down and they will offer cash for my spare valve body. Will be shipping mine on Saturday morning on Monday next week

Yeah please let us know the details. I got two valve bodies I can send to Jeff he can mod them in 3 stages for $350 USD + shipping offset back to AU. If your keen let me know. SRT was rumoured just to be using Rods and porting the 1-2 gallery for quicker shift I have the oil cooler.. but no room with my current fmic setup to install stealth. I tried fitting inside the wheel arches. I could make it fit if I were to cut remove the bonnet holder/open latch and install Bonnet pins and have it sit on top of the fmic.

Hey wastegate welcome Do you know what MV automatics do to the valve body? How do they address the accumulators and do they do any porting to increase line pressure? As you might know in the US people use valve body rods for cheap. I've got two spare gearboxes at mine one stock and one built with Jeff Tsai's sprag. I also have the Transgo A650e valve body upgrade which contains some parts. My gearbox has been holding up for 1.5 years of Lift of gear changes with no mods @ 290RWKW+. I might sent MV automatics an email now that you say they perform upgrades to our VB :D On the other hand Jeff Tsai can do VB upgrades from $300+ (shipping and if you want fast 1-2shifts etc) Btw how did you go with Android and OBD hack?

Was late to a meeting in the City The other day and as I handed the keys to Valet parking. He smiled and asked 2JZ Turbo? Seconds after I leave you can see him opening the bonnet (Towards end of video) A car fanatic so I wont report and don't want them to get in trouble or lose their job over this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9j3rzYBtRU

I installed a Blackvue DR650 in IS300 3 wires if you get the power box. On the JCE10 I used add-a-circuits from Navara (Autobarn) Just get yourself a test light and look for constant and acc power and your set. Here's footage of how the front looks like. It needs a polarizing filter otherwise you get dash reflections

Been busy over on my.is and altezzaForum but thought I would register here. I would recognise Wesley, Ton and Danny (I had the Mr2 turbo back in the day when you had your BNR32 :P when we would meet up at Parra) Here is my lightly modded 2004 IS300 AUDM spec car. I had finished this around the same time as Nick (Lexism) but have remained quiet. Have been driving with the mods daily for 2 years on low boost. Dyno video - 263RWKW @ 12 Psi factory Torque converter is robbing power Mods are mostly bolt on parts - A650e bypassed factory under radiator cooling - GTE Internals (Head gasket, Pistons and rods etc) - BC 264 2JZGE VVT-i Cams - PTE6262 .82AR T4 Divided - 650cc Injectors - 3.5" Exhaust into 3" Metal Cat - Premium Japan Throttle Converter Kit Deletes DBW - Haltech PS2000 - 17 " Prodrive mono block Future mods - Install built A650e with Jeff Tsai's 20mm Dual cage Sprag and IPT VB mod - Supra Front brake conversion - Rear Tires? - 1000cc Injectors - Dual fuel pumps - Fuel Regulator and return line TL:DR Black IS300 with PTE 6262 blew ring lands piston #1 on. Opened engine found block and head still perfect even had factory cross hatching hone marks dropped in Supra internals. If I was todo this again would I just buy a 2JZ vvti clip? Maybe.. but the bolt on aspect and keeping factory engine just changing bits did not cost over 8k total :) If any one here needs a factory Air box, Factory cats/headers and Suspension (100,000kms) let me know
