2TR-FE Performance Thread

Well i appreciate you spreading the knowledge man. I will make a note of that on the first page for future reference for others

 

Hey if any of you have a chance could you take a picture of your fuse box and post it please? I am trying to find out what type of fuse I am missing or if it’s normal on my truck. It appears when stuff stopped working the P/O just pulled the fuses/relays

 

Under the dash or hood?

 

Under hood, sorry I should have specified.

 

This is the fuse I was missing how ever this truck does not have the bed power outlet which is what that slot is for. So that makes sense that it’s MIA. I finally figured out where the wiring diagrams are in TIS

 

Has anyone added an oil cooler to their 2TR?

 

I think I got the same notification you did that prompted this question... and to answer the question, no I haven't. But I'm now thinking about it.

 

i'm guessing you saw that nice oil cooler go up for grabs? It's definitely got me thinking now. Not sure where i'd put one

 

Do yall know if the LS ARP header studs would work on our 2TR? Mine is due for some new studs

 

Pull a stud out of the header? I bet they are the same length.

 

I am not sure about the LS studs but I did use the lce arp header studs in my 2tr. I advise getting the tap, I didn’t and it was... painful. Also don’t use the included nuts to get the studs in. I used the two nuts from the intake manifold.

 

With the thread chaser, they go in freely by hand.

 

Thats what ill do tonight and compare. Probably gonna jump on the arp waiting train if they work

Mine is hodge podged together right now with a mix of the oem and LCE studs/nuts. Its too much for my ocd haha

 

I found some in stock supposedly on jegs, so i went ahead and pulled the trigger. Worst case scenario i will use them on the v6. I'll keep yall posted if they work!

edit: just from doing some digging the toyota part numbers are different so this may be over before it begins. Either way, i will probably try to find some ARP hardware that will work if these dont

 

That’s what I get for being impatient, that would have been nice lol. Live and learn.

 

When these first "came to market" people were stripping the Allen heads on the studs. The '03-04 1GR head that I tested them on, they went in by hand. However, the '05+, then tolerances in the holes was much tighter. That is when we learned that a thread chaser was a must.

 

With the 5.29s what size tires are you on and is your truck a 5 speed? I have 5.29s coming and I’m afraid that with all the highway driving I do it’ll be like a bad idea lol but idk? How do you like yours? Or do you wish you went 4.88?

 

Im running 295/70r17 so thats like a 33.23”. Yes my truck is a 5 speed and the 5.29s are pretty aggressive, but i am happy with them. I have run 4.88s with the same tires and for highway driving theyd probably be better, but i like how the 5.29s make the truck feel. What size tires do you plan to run?

 

I'm running 4.88 gears with 315/70R17 on my 5-speed. That combo runs close to stock rpm on the highway.
