Remote Oil Filter Kit?
|
Thu, 21 November 2002 15:07
|
 |
I want to put a remote oil filter kit on my 1jzgte. Toyota put it in a really hard place for the average joe (me) to get to and a remote kit sounds like the way to go.
Does anyone know where I can get one and a rough idea of price?
Cheers.

Removing the oil filter on the 1jz is helping me achieve my life long dream of being a contortionist!! Seriously though im looking at a kit too. I got a price once for the Greddy kit, but cant remember how much. Might have to give them a ring and find out again.

Try Earl's performance products at Silverwater,
Don't know if there still at this address but its 68-72 Derby St
Silverwater NSW
ph: 02 97486011
The price I'm not sure, I bought all the necessary items for a 7M-GTE about 1-1/2 years ago for around $300

If anyone is interested in a group buy, I want in on it.
The 1JZ oil filters are in a total bitch of a place and I loathe every oil change.
Any change in location would be most welcome.

what kind of parts did you need to move the filter?
I don't how bad the 1JZ location is, but to remove my filter, I have to remove part of the air intake & then use a special tool to get at it.
I also want to add an oil cooler, so this would help plumb that in too.

Wagonist,
The parts nedded to move the oil filter is quite basic parts. If you take your filter to Earl's they can measure the size up and give you a mount plate with an in and an out as well as a mount for the block with the same thing. Just hook the piping up. Depending on where you want to mount it just buy the legnth of tubing. Just make sue you hook the tubing up the right way with the 'in' matching the 'in' on the block as i did it the wrong way and ended up with no oil pressure. Luckily I have oil pressure gauge in the car.
Changing the filter is so easy, and if you can't get it off just hammer a screw driver through the filter and it's easier to unscrew.

I've got a remote filter on my new setup, its using a huge filter for a nissan, and which can be taken on and off by hand. My problem was the 1uz's filter was fouling on my crossmember, had to make an extra part out of steel, tap it and put the nipples on it. Not sure how it works yet (havn't fired it up).
I got it from Auto Pro. There are two seperate pieces and the lines are seperate again (3 seperate peices then?). I'm still yet to get a T piece so I can mount the oil pressure sensor in it though.
Remote filters are a great idea. 'specially if the oil lines are clear as you can see at a glance how your oil is.

My filter is a pain to get at.
East west engine, with the filter (about 10cm & 10cm long) mounted horizontally on the back (ie the firewall side) above the steering rack & below the exhaust manifold holding the high mount turbo! The end of the filter is level with the block so can't even think about getting a screwdriver in there.
Remote filter would turn a 1 hour job into five minutes.
Thanks for the info.

I just bought one for the 1jz...there was no way I was going to filter again and again in that stupid location.
It consists of a plate for where the oil filter sits and a second plate to bolt elsewhere in engine bay and attach filter to. the filter plate is two-way i.e has in and out on both sides so you just blank out (blanks provided)the direction you don't need. The two plates are all aluminium, made in the USA, called "Drivetech" (purchased from Autosport (in SA) for $131. You need to measure and get the hoses (in and out) made up to fit your particular application. I'm going to fit an Oil-Cooler somewhere behind the spotlights - anyone done this before for a 1jz in a MA70 ?? virtually the same as a JZA-70? - and the remote kit will make this a lot easier.

If you were going to get a remote oil filter setup - what would you do - stick to the same filter, or go to a bigger / more efficient one?

Depends, if the stock oil filter is operating efficently enough, why go for something bigger, most probably more expensive. Plus wouldn't you have a better chance of having a stock filter in stock all the time.
just my opinion, unless someone can convince me otherwise.

Supraman, nah your pretty much on the money man....
Oil filters these days are very efficient at filtering, even the little ones.
Another thing to remember is that if you are changing the oil and filter regularly ie. I do it around every 5000km, than you don't have to worry about a bigger filter as the normal sized one I beleive will not clog up significantly to cause concern about filtration or flow capability.
Juz my piece of copper,
Adrian!

Paul,
Sorry mate, can't find the price. Just went through my reciepts for this year (full plastic sleve). Did find the price for the oil filters - $19. I got 3 at the time as I'm gonna do a lot of oil changes soon after the engine goes in (200kms, 600kms)

I have read somewhere in this forum that the landcruiser remote filter set up will do the job. Check with a 4WD place and see if they have a kit and then check if plate to block matches your existing filter.
When 1 of you have sorted it all out post it on this forum so that we/I go to do it I save some time.

I use a remote kit on mine, cost $110 and does the job well. I use a z10 filter (because there ain't room for a z9!), which is still quite a cheap filter, and a lot bigger that a z386

A 7mgte one mightn't be too different to a 1G one, in price anyways.
Thats an awesome price. Might have to go see "captain cool" tommorow at star performance.
Did you get served by him, captain cool?
He's the most layed back bloke ive ever met, alot of ppl agree and have named him captain cool for his amazing ability to communicate as if he just sucked down a giant scoob!!!
Go captain! Keep those cheap parts coming.

Josh, is that an external or internal pump?
If extrenal does it need a lift pump? As most decent HP external pumps require fuel to be delivered to the pump as they cannot scavenge.
I'm due for an upgrade and that pump you got sounds good. I wont to stay internal to keep the noise down. Also thinking about running two factory pumps in paralell, an extra one mounted onto the back of the bracket of the original one.
Ill have to upgrade the wiring to it if i do that as well.

For high pressure it would be better to run them in series rather than in paralell!

Having 2 high pressure fuel pumps in series will give more flow! It wont give twice the flow but it will work without causing any damage to the pumps! This is exactly how all the high performance tuning shops do it! Using to pumps in parallel will have fuel from one pump trying to go into the output of the second pump! This is not good is not good for either pump! In a short amount of time both pumps will burn out! Give some tuning shops a call and ask!

Try motorsport connections behind burgerking/h.jacks at seven hills (the one just off the end of ther M2) remote filters, coolers, alloy hose fittings, braided teflon hose and fittings (brake hoses etc) best price I could find for bosch fuel pumps.

Cool1, SupraGTE is correct, running the pumps in parallel increases the flow, running them in series increases the pressure.
The pressure isn't usually a problem it's the flow that drops off. Because with all roto-dynamic pumps the flow drops as pressure increases, thats why you run 2 pumps in parallel to keep the flow up, as 1 pump can provide enough pressure just not the flow.
If your fuel pressure starts to drop off too then you're really maxing out your pump.

Its pressure thats a problem on stock cars when you up the anti with stock injectors! Stock fuel fumps normally have pretty good flow but cant produce that much pressure! When the injectors on your engine have to work harder they need more pressure at the back of them! And if you look at the specifications of most injectors they need pretty high pressure to work at the rated flow!

Cool1, you run your fuel pumps in series. We'll run ours in paralell.
Stock EFI pumps can supply tons of pressure across the fuel rail. Put on an adjustable rising rate fuel pressure regulator and wind it up. Its that easy.
Flow is the reason why 99% of people put another pump in and when they do for flow its ALWAYS in paralell.
Two 3lt/min pumps in paralell= 6lts/min
Two 3lt/min pumps in series= 3lts/min
I know which one i'd prefer. Hows your 100% restrictionless cat? Can i buy one?

Paul, If your car is so affected by using a cat converter there must be something seriously wrong with the design of your exhaust OR If your car is out putting so much power that you loose 30hp or what ever you reckon, it must be a total piece of shit to drive on the road!
And as for the fuel pump in parallel, maybe you should read the manufactures specifications on the pumps your using! Running 2 pumps in parallel without the neccerory valves will cause the pumps to burn out prematurely! And if this happens, I bet you are the kind of person to go bitch about how crap those pumps are.
On another note, why do you come on a forum like this looking for information and then when someone supplys it to you, you get up on your high horse and instantly say "your wrong, I know better than you". Maybe you should go join the Hot4's forum and become a legend in ya own undies to all the little kids there!

u got to remember that pauls car is powerful
not some n/a pos that flows no air
its very good at flowing air
and if he said it lost 30hp on the dyno it did
abd he has a 3" high flow cat
so its has a restriction
this is a fact.

not to be picky guys but the pumps lidted on the thinkauto page seem to be feed pumps, not higher pressure "EFI" pumps. these can be connected one into another without damage.

On ya Cool1! Sorry but your wrong again! Not really sorry though hehehehe!
That link describes for use of carby pumps which if you dont know run between 3-8psi. Bit different to EFI pumps which can easily range from 38-80psi and higher!
The pressure will drop off because the pump cannot supply enough flow. If there is not enough fuel to pump against then keeping the pressure up is a major problem. Isn't that obvious????
It's not because the pump cannot supply enough pressure. Flow of fuel starts to get starved and the pump cannot keep enough fuel in the rail and pressure drops as a result.
EFI pumps can pump extremely high pressures, 38-50psi is nothing at all.
Cool1, I ask very little questions on this forum cause i get farkwits like yourself posting incorrect information which then gives other people who don't know that much the wrong ideas when they beleive your crap.
Thats why when you post your incorrect theories i wont agree with them and let it be seen on the thread so others dont beleive it. If your right you've got no problem!
If you definitely know what your talking about then post it. If not, don't for everyone elses sake. Ie, cat converters pose no restriction!
While i'm at it, why hassle other peoples cars and build ups????

No worries little man! When my car is finised i'll gladly bring it down and give you a race! It must be a legal race on a supervised strip! Both cars must be fully engineered and street legal! Also the bet must be a minumin of $1000! If you dont like the sound of that then you must know you have something to loose!

Love the sound of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can do your quarter mile run then ill do mine.
Not gonna chance some big mouth tool loosing control and taking out 4 years of developement on a superior car.
And i'm not gonna wait forever for you to build it. You think know everything so bring it down here.
Is it gonna have four cats on it??? Hehehehe i hear they make you go even faster!

You hear a lot of weird things! Maybe if you went to a half decent exhaust shop you wouldn't have such a restrictive system!
Oh, and i'd like you to point out where I said that cat convertors were 100% unrestrictive!
And you'll have to wait for me to build my car cause I cant drive at this current time because I got cought racing little people on the streets cause they couldn't get their unengineered cars on the track! And I didnt see you mention anything about the cash bet!

Ohhh well yes then your on $1000! Big freakin deal. Get over it.
You'll need it to tow your POS home.
Excuses already is all i'm seeing. Have to wait for this and that and i'll have to build my car first. Hehehe
Jesus, with the crap that you go on about on these forums anyone would think you've already built a 400-500hp car???
By the time you begin building your ricer i'll have finished with cars and be playing with property.
You said a high quality cat on a properly built system will give no restriction.
Stop rocking yourself dude!
Thanks for the amusement hehehehehe
but if I continue to reply to your teenage antics I'll have to give up my day job and become a comedian!!
And I love my job....
Over and out Cool1.

For those interested, I went to earls yesterday and got a remote oil adaptor (block end) really nice.. Has been machined, Not cast.
And a oil filter adaptor..
Both coming in at a total of $110
These were for the 4a series by the way.
