I don’t have a 2jz.. I just like hearing jay explain stuff

[@moedigzz]

Most of his videos show tips that can be used for almost any engine build/assembly.

[@unknowndestinyfabrication3872]

I really love informative videos like these. People don’t show you these kinds of tricks at all unless you work at a performance shop. Thanks Jay, you are the man.

[@jimhiscott2918]

Jay is amazing. He is also currently building a Honda B series for himself right now. I hope he post video about his build.

[@unknowndestinyfabrication3872]

@@jimhiscott2918 that would be awesome.

[@MR-uk7iy]

Professor Jay is in session.... I believe I can obtain my Associate's in 2JZ just by watching these vids, there is always more than one little thing. Experience

[@TheSTREET90]

I never comment on youtube vids, but I have say Jay you may have saved my engine. Doing a refresh rebuild on my 4agze, brand new oil pump from aisin. I decided to inspect my pump and to my surprise the relief valve in fact seized inside and the gears are bone dry. Had to use some heat and force on the cylinder to get it out. Had some corrosion on the piston and walls. Cleaned it up with some scotch brite lubed up the piston, cylinder and gears. Everything now functions properly.

[@CP110]

Damn... I just built a 1uz got a new oil pump and didnt think to check that it was pre lubed or not. now I gotta pull off all the accessories, covers and oil pan for piece of mind lol

[@sfayer90]

Looks like I’m pulling my oil pump off and re-doing it 😅 Thanks for making these videos guys

[@PhillyMK3]

What a great and informative video! Thank you!

[@PeakPerformanceReviews]

Class from Jay and Real Street as always 👌✅

[@marcocoetzee6880]

Great video. Important tips you mentioned. Thanks.

[@TheZuprachannel]

Solid video, Jay is always on point with the details thank you guys

[@boosted2.4_sky]

JAY!!! LET'S GO !!!🏁

[@jracer815]

Love these videos

[@clutchworkz]

The beats in these videos go hard.

[@BrokenSilvia]

Perfect timing this video 🙏🙏

[@carguy1013]

Great video, thank you

[@RolanTHUNDER]

Really insightful! I might just do this inspection to my 4AGE 20 Valve Blacktop oil pump as preventative maintenance. Not that it needs it but while I get in there for new rings and the front main I may as well give it a shot. Thank you Dr. Jay :)

[@richardknight1258]

The Real general Jay himself. Much respect everytime. One of the best Narrator on engine building on you tube..Big up Jay 🇯🇲

[@ACommenterOnYouTube]

6:38 Amen to that, pcv and valve cover vents should be OPEN to let that crankcase breathe free especially under boost.

[@fullspoolcustoms3944]

Badass video

[@Boosted01R]

Good video, when I did my 2JZ motor, the new oil pump had a decent bit of corrosion at the seat of the oil bypass. The Rotor area had some debris as well. Always pull apart your new pump.

[@GS_Twan]

Jay you should do a video priming the oil system for first start!!

[@chazparker2488]

I’ve spent HOURS, on these awesome vids. Good stuff brotha. Can we get a discussion on the freeze plugs? Those look epic

[@T_ndhlovunator]

nice tip

[@somethingspecial-nh6mo]

All your video are very informative how about doing a vw golf 1 engine build never saw you do one as i am vw freak thanks keep up the good videos

[@opaocker]

Great Video! Love the detail and it was easy to follow. Jay, what do you think of modifying / machining the oil pump channels for better oil flow? Seen a lot of JZ guys do that...

[@pekkahelminen7801]

Try sometimes brakecleaner to "lubricate" those seals, makes rubber slippery for moment and makes them stick in place like nothing else when evaporates.

[@HookerGaming]

Wish you would tell us the Toure specs while doing the videos it wouldnt take more then 2 words and it would help us out A LOT. thank you none the less for makeing these

[@awggie]

This!!

[@flubyux2]

I guess we aren’t going to just give away alll the pump porting mods for free today LOL Also, I’m surprised to see you guys aren’t using fipg. I know I’ve heard people swear by Hondabond but Fuji glue is a first for me

[@michaelparker6412]

Hi Jay, what are your thoughts on when you need to port a 2jz pump or oversize the front main drain hole?

[@ashleighcurtis]

Nice video guy's I made a SST for fitting the front main seal on the 2J at SRD Tuning that work's amazing. Keeps it totally parallel and fits it to the correct depth every time will ping you over a picture as sometimes when you need to do a front main seal in a car that has a rock hard seal that's leaking from being 25years old it makes it effortless. Also I'm on the same opinion as you I've never had any issues with the front seal being pushed out in over 60 2jz engines I've built over the years. Will always be a incorrectly fitted item from someone else or punched in to far or a oil pump that is scored up badly 👍 Build them right there always perfect

[@jryan1175]

Tried looking fro your SST but couldn't find it.

[@ashleighcurtis]

@@jryan1175 will take some pictures and put it up on our FB page 👍

[@benjurmind1318]

That's so ill that REAL st laser etched on the piston 💪

[@jryan1175]

Wish this video was out years ago when I built my engine. Still have a leaky front main that I could never get just right.

[@astonmarjo]

Is this Perdros new engine??? Realstreet use to sale Jay's short blocks to the public who actually can you trust to assemble a good engine now? 🌟💯😎🏁🏁🏁

[@silverroku]

What is with the purple freeze plugs? Ive never seen that before. They look nice.

[@Eduardo_Espinoza]

Do you polish the crank shaft or use a new one before reassembling?

[@itsreallytheo]

Would a ported pump be necessary compared to a non ported for high power goals?

[@besssam]

Grease must be applied on the inner sealing face/lip. Oil or in this case assembly lube is not what is needed to stay inside that sealing cavity created between the crankshaft and the seal lip. Remember that during normal operation oil DOES NOT make it passed the seal to lubricate it. This why you need to grease the lip. Many seals arrive with grease applied for this reason.

[@alexbreakdown]

Would it hurt using a little bit of assembly grease instead of silicone spray on the outside of the front main seal to seat it into the pump? Or am I asking for a problem doing that?

[@jesve8120]

how do you feel about Toyota Black FIPG for the pump/pan?

[@G.J.G.P.]

Wow, the 2jz oilpump gears are massive, compared to any rb26 aftermarket pump/ gears

[@loganamurray64]

There’s a reason RB’s have oil pump issues and 2JZ’s dont

[@G.J.G.P.]

@@loganamurray64 yeah, enlarge everything on the engine infinitely to avoid every circumstance. Thats the universal answer to everything.

[@loganamurray64]

@@G.J.G.P. Well no but logic does dictate that if you have the same thing, doing the same job of a similar design and you make it beefier it'll be stronger

[@G.J.G.P.]

@@loganamurray64 so, logic also should tell you, that more beefy doesnt mean more better. There is a purpose for every part and and over shooting everything is not always the answer. Or does any other car company make such a huge oilpump for a relatively small engine? Why does no one run drysump from factory? Because its way outside its purpose and cost eficinecy. But that small oilpump was enough to win a 24h race in spa, to compete muliple times in the 24h nürburgring with good results, win bathurst and jtc multiple times. Never heard that about the 2jz

[@Diabetic_Deity]

What are the torque specs for all of those small screws and the bypass bolt? I lubed my oil pump and I feel like I might have tightened them too much as it feels harder to spin now that it’s lubed than when it wasn’t

[@sunnyblumen3807]

What grease or lube do you recommend using? Looks like permatex ultra-slick engine assembly lube

[@jimhiscott2918]

Is porting the 2jz oil pump recommended? I purchased a brand new B16 Honda oem oil pump for my B series build. As soon as it was delivered to my address I forwarded the oil pump directly to 4P Piston Racing for there full mod work up. Would you recommended 2jz owners do the same?

[@atulbava7416]

Hi. Plse provide the silicon details you buy from suburu.

[@rjstyles9177]

What kind of core plugs are those?

[@yasha1928]

Yeeeah buddy

[@BlackyBrownDestruction9337]

AE86 was notorious for oil pump failures

[@matthewsammut5650]

so does this mean that the supposed "jz pump gear failure" in recent years is just due to no pre lubing and checking of relief valve?. if so that defeats the whole new fad of the prp pump gears for "2jz oil pump failure" that never used to exist

[@sourignooutsama7098]

Torque specs for all the stuff you torqued please.

[@carguy1013]

Listed in the video, I had to rewatch, look at the top/sides they're in green writing

I need my 2jz valve seals replaced ...

[@tadda6282]

Jay is RSP doing their engine program again? I'm looking for a place to do my 2JZ 3.4L block build but cant find a shop that I can trust to do the work.

Why sleeve??

[@adamgibson9084]

Can one send their new oil pump to real st for this service to be performed?

[@realstreetperformance]

Sorry, we do not offer this service but PHR (Performance house racing) does.

[@SpannerManSam]

Did you build that on the dark side of the moon?

[@reubenmorris487]

Massive oil pump gears. The 4G63's oil pump is tiny compared to this.

[@david92xj]

How much oil pressure would it make if that bypass was not working correctly? What would you consider excessive oil pressure on a 2jz?

I was thinking about doing this until you said we'd have to take the engine out of the engine bay and also remove the top oil pan. Damn.

[@puunersjabski6487]

Thats a ford fe 390 oiling system. Nearly identical, pump and all. Its why the sbc is superior, imo.

Those are Mazworx freeze plugs. The block is machine and the plugs screw in.
