1000hp Supra Build | Part 12 | 2JZ Shimless Bucket Conversion & Valve clearance

We're back with some 2JZ build stuff!! I'm so pumped to get this thing running again so we're kicking it off with a shimless bucket conversion on the head. 🤘 I know this thing will make over 1000hp, the question is how much?

One of the best video games ever made. 🍻🤘

Awesome video fella, I’ve just gone Shimless buckets too. Very close now for fire up for me shooting for 1000whp…. For now ….. then shooting for 1400whp later this year. You need to do more 2JZ videos haha I don’t have enough to watch lol 😆

[@2JZAddict]

That'll be a rowdy machine at 1400whp! 🤘 I've got more coming. The assembly video and some others will be dropping sooner rather than later. It's a lot easier to make content more consistently now that the parts are here. Lol

[@PeakPerformanceReviews]

@@2JZAddict it sure well! Will be happy with 1000whp all going well for 2022, loving all your content tbf ✅🙌

[@2JZAddict]

Glad I could help! 🍻👍

[@StrongmanTaylor]

Thank you for posting this video. Very straight forward and very concise. I have a set of 272's I want to install and this will make it that much easier.

[@2JZAddict]

Glad this video was able to help! 🍻🤘

Let me hold that excel sheet 😂

[@cloane85]

that egg container is such a great idea!! Hahaha clutch tip

[@ShealeysGarage]

Thanks for explaining this dude. I'm about to do this with my cam upgrade as well.

[@ItzSillyy]

About to have to do this again.. because I’m converting to vvti head with my 7675. I’m going to dlc coat them. Where did you purchase your shimless buckets?

[@2JZAddict]

I picked them up from Elmhurst Toyota. Normally I’d go through McGeorge out in VA but they didn’t have the all the PN I needed. Where are you getting the DLC done?

[@kennethvelazquez26]

Can we get that excel sheet lol??? Very handy

[@2JZAddict]

I might be able to figure out a way to make it public. Not sure how I'd be able to lock out certain fields though. 🤔

[@timtiminy]

@@2JZAddict Could import it into a google sheet I know you can lock fields in sheets.

[@GTRliffe]

it’s good too use two feeler gauges that will square things a little more one gauge is 70% of the gap, and the really thin one too reach your desired thickness if you watch some Jap builders they do it this way. pretty sure the Nissan manual says that using two is the better way

[@motonvipr]

Dang, I thought this was Alex Smith for a sec.

[@2JZAddict]

I think your the first person to ever make that connection. lol I can definitely see the similarity though. 😳

[@fox-body]

I was watching a head games video and they were grinding the tip of the valve to set the clearance. I’m assuming so they could use the same size buckets?

[@2JZAddict]

You can absolutely do that too. I figured most people would be doing this with the motor still in the car in which case you wouldn’t be able to cut valve stems. I actually ended up pulling the #1 intake valve after filming this and having a machine shop cut it down to get the desired clearance. I don’t have access to a tool that would give me straight cuts on the back of the value so I opted for the measure and order method. 🍻

[@turbogears900]

Is that a lexus sc .behind you ? In the video

[@2JZAddict]

On the lift?? There’s a MKIV Supra on top and an R33 GTR on the bottom.

[@hunteralberytalt]

Is that a supra

[@2JZAddict]

One day. Right now it’s an expensive paperweight. 🤣🤣
