The camshafts don't use bearings, simply an oil gallery to create a thin film of oil between the cap and the cam.
I like where this thread is headed, however it took me a second to work out that it was an MA61
so ive had this project underway for over a year now. i bought her of my next door neighbour for an absolute bargan coz she wouldn't start. at the time she had the original 5m-e, so i brought her home ran through the usual process of elimination.... one busted fuel pump.. . so popped in a new pump and turned the key... SHE HAS LIFE! but with an awful rattle comming from the motor.
so i ordered new timing gear, tensioners, chains belts the whole works... still makin a bad sound.. so i pulled the rocker cover off and ripped out the cam...
hmmm... nasty little scorch marks... was suprised to find there was no bearings at all.. cam was perfect cut to sit in the head
more to come next post...

keep ya all posted
if theres one thing the world needs more of..its JZA61's
what plans for the engine? keeping it stock? going single early?
plans for the car? street? strip? track? or dorifto
+rep whatever happens
cheers ph@ man. keepin the motor stock for now, see how she goes.. have been lookin at single turbo setup but ill wanna do other mods when that happens (cams, aftermarket ecu etc) keepin her street for now but ill try get her a run or two down the strip for fun lol. im into my car audio and interior mods but that all has to wait until she is at least back together and running.
cheers

i hope you're going to fix up the rust around the clutch master before the new motor goes in. Rest of the car looks pretty good for it's age!
its only surface rust.. the cylinder leaked and it peeled the paint off... just needs a good clean up... im going to be repainting the engine bay before i put the motor in..
quick question. can anyone tell me the difference between a 1jz-gt and a 1jz-gte? what does the "E" stand for? cant seem to find this info anywhere..
E stands for EFI.
a 1JZGT doesn't exist.
The 18R-G. The GOOD 2 Litre Tractor motor.
1jz-gt does not exsist?
what the hell have i got then?
1jz-gt...
THat looks like an Auto Tranny ECU to suit a 1jz-gte, w/ auto tranny (i'm not an 1jz expert so don't quote me on that.) Here's a pic of a spare ECU i have here for a 4agze, doesn't have the E on it either. I pulled this one off a working wreck, so i know its the right one
don't stress
EDIT: Really need to find my proper camera this fone camera is shit.
cheers senn. i have started to wire up the loom to the motor and so far everything matches up(except one plug on the intake). ive been told it has come from a soarer with the same motor(1jz-gte) my motor is out of a jza70 so hopefully all will go well...
Thats a 1jzgte computer Off an auto 1jz loom. Nothing to worry about
