Its a faaaarkin awesome build dude not knocking it for a second but a 2J has 500cc more so personally i think it can do alot more than a 1J sure it could probably go toe to toe on a dyno in a HP shootout but that half litre more just gives you torque more turbo response which may not look that different on a dyno but the drive would be very different

awesome work mate love it. want to know how you made the engine mounts as im looking to do the same to my r33. i already have motor as i own a jzz30 soarer as well but want to swap motors any info would be great

i have found mounts for your s series nissan crossmembers and from memory the s14 crossmember are interchangeable with r33 not 100% sure though and as for the sumps im not to sure about that will have to look into it

you need a front sump yes. i have a few rear sumps here and they are useless i cant even sell them!!

i made my own engine mounts and run the r32 cross member and rubbers.

just sit your engine in the engine bay where you want it and fab up the mounts yourself.

get the motor as low as possible and as far back as possible.

pretty simple if you are handy with the tools

so the engine was down on compression and the valve stem seals were causing a lot of smoke

so i got stuck in and built a new 1jz up for it. took me 2 weeks to build it myself and get it in and running.

got the urge for more power so i went with a t66 turbo, and a few little other supporting mods

still runnning a stock ecu with safc2 controller

finished with a total of 413 rwhp 308rwkw at 24psi

here are some pics

    • Unfortunately haven’t taken pics yet after it was finished. All the edges are hemmed nicely, just had to cut holes for the gear shifter and seat bolts and seat belt bolts in the rear. The molds seem like they’re done with steam and a layer of glue on the underside to hold a bit of shape but still soft enough that it’s a good fit when it’s all pressed down.
    • When's the rear mounted turbo kit coming? Needs dose and V8 chop idle lol.
    • I was very unimpressed with how the car came up from the A pillar forward, before I hit things (twice). It all has to go. It had to go, but now it has to go... more. So we finally found the very first Shennanigans with the entirely perfectly setup engine that had no problems being pulled apart to improve on 'was perfectly fine'. Cam bearings looked a bit... stock. Which isn't entirely bad given they were stock and this is a ~20 year old engine. So new cam bearings are on the way because it's somewhat difficult to get to this stage to do it later, and it will trash the block. It was quite unusual that it wasn't done when the perfectly new-looking VCM cam was originally installed by [unknown] What IS unusual is the cam that was installed there was advanced SIX degrees. As to why there is no way to know.. however it could have been @Dose Pipe Sutututu's mate who wanted a larger cam sound but also wanted it to come on earlier to be more usable. This is my dyno sheet with the previous setup - This cam is not supposed to peak until 7000+ RPM, according to VCM. This is what lead me down the whole 'my heads/intake setup is running out of puff and can't support the cam' line of thinking to begin with. Anyway too late now - New cam is in! It could be rather funny if this smaller cam acts like a larger cam because it isn't advanced six degrees. In the spirit of everything is working amazingly - the COMP cam required no dialling in whatsoever. It was about 0.5 degrees advanced, which seems pretty bang on. Any adjustment either way would be further out. I'm told as a chain breaks in it ends up regarding back about 0.5 a degree as the chain breaks in, making it bang on. In the spirit of everything was previously working amazingly - The timing gear that was taken out turned out to be was an N-Motion double timing chain kit, with adjustable cam gear (which is how it was 6 degrees advanced) and all looks entirely perfectly new. It also had a Torrington bearing, which was one of the reasons I ended up getting the Cloyes kit which they used in the C5R 24 hour racecar - Because I couldn't confirm what was in the engine when talking to Tony Mamo. I did believe however it was a Double chain kit of some kind... but found no supporting documentation or evidence for it.
    • I recently did this to my R33 with the full set from Car Mats Direct, they can't do the vinyl anymore that's advertised on the website due to a supplier issue so I ended up with the Black Loop Pile which looks great. I went all out with rubber sound deadening sheets from Repco and also added the sound deadening foam layer option with the carpet. Makes a world of difference and got rid of all the weird smells in the 29 year old interior. It was a bit of work but I'd 100% recommend it, Car Mats Direct had awesome customer service and quick postage. Replaced my seats with some sporty ones from Autotechnia while I was at it, feels like a new car.
