Fantastic work!

I'm still a little bummed I didn't make my return trip home from the Nationals via Sydney, so I could stop by and have a look... though it did shave a few hundred km off the drive.

How far away is the engine build? Have you decided on all the details for it yet?

Meh....the reality is that the car must have fallen short of expectations Really not sure how a full tune can drag out for 2 years... so claims that the build was f1 spec, just musn't show on the dyn

Thanks Ian.

It s ok maybe nextime you are in sydney John would be more then happy to show you the fab work and what his aiming to build.

The build has been slow, just getting the head ready for assembly as the bottom end is completed. ( Still trying to get pics for this )

All the other aspects of the car are ready and up to date, just need to drop the motor im and start finishing this build.

It's almost like the next pics you post couldn't possibly be better than what you've already posted...

But No.... They just get more awesome!

Have you weighted the manifold/turbo/gate assembly? Noted John thought it wouldn't need any brace/supporting. Just wondering what the actual weight is :)

The weight of the manifold with just the wastegates bolted on is about 7kg.

Spoke to John about the brace, he will be adding a brace or bracing system to the manifold however at this point of time he has not stated where. Once he does i will update you.

Cool thanks :) is it for clearance reasons. My 1jz manifold does the opposite (faces the comp cover away)

The turbo was rotated towards the rocker cover to achieve the best exit of the turbo that was not a 90 degree bend like everyone else has, john has said 90 degree bend can cause upto 15% loss in efficiency of the turbo.

Low mount manifold? Or does the comp cover face in towards the rocker cover?

This pic will answer your question

The red lines drawn on the inlet are approximate anti-surge slot locations to be milled out?

Sweet :)

I remember earlier in the thread it was stated it wasn't needed, perhaps that was only in early stages. 7kg + turbo would be quite a hefty end result.

Be interesting to see where it's braced and what not - look forward to that update :thumbsup:

fyp

heat + stainless steel = bending.

good welds will not stop it.

keep us updated. :)

The red lines are for the installation of a plunger infront of the turbo.

John does not like anti surge slots as this also reduces the efficiency of the turbo.

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
