I can't express how much I love itbs on a k-series, with the intake pointing at you... sex
If you want my honest advice on questions about installing them, go ask on k20a.org..

Re: Back from Iraq time for swap
so i called twm and they said i need ev1 injectors. that isnt much help. i know i need either 440 or 550. what measurement should i go with? from top of intake to rail or inside holes?
Re: Back from Iraq time for swap
well got the injectors and after some headaches with the oil system. i'm finally almost done. all i have to do is set the timing and get the valve cover gaskets.
Re: Back from Iraq time for swap
Well I finished the wiring today as I got the tps plug from Borla. I also wired the new injectors and rewired the charge harness. Then I set up the electric water pump lines. Tomorrow and Wednesday I plan on fabricating the water pump mount bracket, installing the crank pulley, adjusting the valve clearance, and installing the oil filter brackets/lines. Getting the rest of things painted/sanded later this week.

Re: Back from Iraq time for swap
I have a problem with my JDM K20a Build. After installation, the exhaust cam gear and my exhaust camshaft have broken. After work today I tried to start my motor. Unsuccessfully, it would turn over but not start. I logged into KPro and found no codes or electronic fuel, spark or timing issues. After pulling spark plugs revealing no burn on cylinder 1 and 2, having burn on 3 and 4. I then did a compression test to which cylinder 3 and 4 had good compression but 1 and 2 would not compress. I knew then that there had to be a timing issue. I took off the valve cover and as you can see from first glance TDC and timing are fine. After closer inspection I had found the the exhaust camshaft/gear had spun somehow and were on cylinder 3 at TDC and Intake was at cylinder 1. Tomorrow I will be pulling my head off to see if the valves have bent, pistons gouged, ect.
