I've been wanting to dyno my car for the longest, which UPFD was supposed to handle, but they are taking toooo long. I know there's like a million out here, but I want to go to someone who's worked with the 1mz, you know. UPFD has been ok to work with, but they still don't know jack about the 1MZ. So, for those of you who have dynoed their 1MZ, what shop would you refer me too? I don't mind having to drive a bit, to find the right shop.

Before I go, I've got to replace my serpentine belt, because I've got a tear in it due to a rock getting wedged in my crank pulley. Also, I'm getting codes po135 and po155, so I'm hoping that replacing the brand new Denso O2 sensors will take care of it :x. Any other suggestions if that's not the case?

My registration is due in October, so unfortunately I've got to smog this time around. I hear if I can get the car dialed in pretty good, I should be able to pass smog, even with the headers. Or else, I'll have to.....$$$ :8)

Thanks,
Larry

hey Larry, I went to Do It Dyno with Bubba. They do really good work. I went there to get my SAFC2 Tuned in Signal Hill, Long Beach. A place I recently heard of that also does awesome work is Church's Dyno in Wilmington, close to the docks. Next time I'm going to them, the only thing about it is that you have to call and make a reservation. With Bubba, Usually the same day is good. Let me know, I'll roll with you. I really want to see what your car pulls at.

That'd be cool, we could roll out there together.

I was just reading about sensors, O2 and air/fuel. Apparently, I've got Denso air/fuel, which I thought were fine. But, just doing some reading, they are different. I bet that's causing my cel. What do you think? I heard that the stock sensors wouldn't work because with the JPP headers the wires weren't long enough on the sensors. Can anybody confirm this? What sensors should I buy and where?

Could be, because I hear the wires are very sensitive. But, I don't know for sure.

You might try Stillen in Costa Mesa. They work mostly with Nissans, but when the Solara community first started out I think they did dyno work, etc. with the Solaras. So they might help, or they might know of another shop.
