Wohoo! I'm about to have even more people think I'm a wanker!

was your a gen1 or gen2 1jz-gte?

I am going to bitch-slap the next person that mentions anything about gen1 or gen2 because it's all a load of crap. I guarantee that if you went to Toyota and cross-referenced every single part number between your beloved gen2 and the horribly unreliable gen1 engine you will find that there are basically no differences whatsoever.

aaagh there is no such thing as a series two. Its just a valve without a bend in it, and a tube.. hardly a major engine overhaul.

I'll drink to that!

Got ya, sorry to throw us off on a differnt tangent... I just think it is wierd they still call the VVTi single tubo the 1JZ.... you would think they would name it differntly....
|
Agreed. Going by Toyota's general naming standards, the Single Turbo VVTi engine should probably have been dubbed the 3JZ... but that said the IS200 runs a 1G still... and I'd say that there's been a re-hash of the engine 20 years after the fact!

id be rebuilding it, and making the most of the oportunity to get a few things done right. and if this is how you drive, i dare say its about time

Personally, I feel that someone who pops their engine running a tune that they know will damage their engine should be shying away from owning a modified car. My opinion is that he should repair the engine in the cheapest way possible and then to sell the car and buy something standard.
The other option is to rebuild the engine (don't pay someone, it's a great learning experience!) and to read up on cars and terms like 'pinging' so that you know why your last one blew up.. and how to stop your new one blowing up too.

I must say I'm suprised you fried the internals - the 1j is famous for being a pretty tough beastie

ATTENTION PLEASE!!
A common misconception seems to be that people thing a mal-tuned engine blowing up means that an engine's power-handling capabilities should be questioned.
Why don't you understand?
This 1JZ did not fail because it was weak or unable to withstand 17psi. It failed because it was treated incorrectly. You can have a $20,000 bottom end and it will STILL fail if treated like this. If you don't believe me, try it - to your detriment.
The 1JZ is an incredibly strong engine, known to take 600hp (and possibly more, but most people go for the greater capacity of the 2JZ when chasing numbers this high) on a factory bottom end. However, you can blow up a completely standard 1JZ by having the timing set incorrectly or by leaning it out (eg fuel pump failure).
