Landcruiser 80 series Fail- Timesert saves the day! Part 1
We are back again with another video on assembling our 80 series landcruiser, and it certainly did not go as planned! We ended up having to reach out to a company called Timesert to order special tools to save our 1FZ-FE from the scrap bin. When i tried installing the OEM headbolts, we encountered the worst case scenario when doing a head gasket, and that would be the threads getting yanked out of the block.
Timesert makes a great kit to tap your existing block for a solid thread insert, that is a PERMANENT fix! if you've run into this problem on your landcruiser, make sure you check out their website and order this kit, it can save you hundreds of dollars in machine shop bills. When we we...

      If your turbo is stock Subaru location, I wouldn’t recommend it, half the reason of going rotated is to be able to run larger turbos, and to make a downpipe to stock Subaru bell mouth would be miserable.

    Sweet ride man! I always love to see more 80 series content, especially when it envolves the kids wanting to get their hand dirty wrenching with Dad. I just got all the parts for the front seal, oil pump gasket, , egr delete, valve cover/ valve/ plug seals, and all new cooling everything with rear heater bypass in my US spec '97. Plan is to address all current/ possible leaks and keep her cool. Then its on to AC, all bushings and steering rebuild. Wish me luck, I'll be following along with you guys for sure.

My 1fz-fe seems healthy (fingers crossed/knock on wood), just a little dirty and tired. While I will give one good attempt at rehabilitating this engine, the real dream is a Cummins swap. Truthfully I love my 80, but my little green eyed monster is seething at the fact you blew yours on the first real drive and now you have all the options in the world to consider, But I try to be a "the glass half is full" kind of guy for my own mental health haha

      As long as you’ve got everything installed properly, you will not need a tune.

I didn't realize I bought a JDM version of that pipe so I can either toss this coolant pipe that I just got and order the USDM version or I can return this kit. I can tell you right now I'm not about to tear the manifold down and throw away a perfectly good crossover just to replace it with another one so I can fit a 90° elbow somewhere lol.

    Piston shown clearly has overheating spots on it. Ringland failure is from lack of lubrication. aka low oil. The ej25 oil path has cylinder 4 being last to get oil, even the turbo is lubed before cyl 4. Low oil means more friction means more heat means ringland failure. 100% user error. These Subaru kids never check their oil level and it shows. Owned an 05 STI for 100k miles and had 0 issues. even did light mods like intake/exhaust with cobb accessport tune. Still no failure. "Well you were lucky" no i made sure to keep and eye on my oil level instead of being a fucking idiot. Subaru owners drive their car like they stole it but wont do proper maintenance and upkeep. and no i didn't "drive like grandma" and i also had many track days. Its the same story with honda s2000 rear ends. Its claimed "they can't handle launching or drifting, they always break" no idiots leave bad oil in the fucking differential which cant properlu lubricate the gears and this they overheat and break. I drove my 06 s2000 like i stole it, drifting on ramps and off ramps daily, even drifting backroads when no one was around. my diff never shattered. "Oh it will" the idiots claimed. More than half the issues people claim is common only have one thing in common, human ignorance and stupidity. The lacking of common sense.
