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

    • Just as long as it's not those putridly disappointing RE003s.
    • I had this same experience going from a set of no name tyres that were on a set of good wheels (Enkei RPFs) to some Potenza RE-11s (this was a few years ago). The wet grip in particular was so much higher that it was almost scary considering how dangerous the old tyres were in comparison. The expense of the tyres also made me want them to last longer so drove accordingly. Wife happy. So now she only 'lets' me buy some flavour of Brigestones...
    • This. All of this. I am turning >$300 into small particles inside 20k km, because I like to be able to roll around any 90° street corner at the speed limit. Would my car be more fun with cheaper tyres? Possibly. When I swapped out the bald AD09s for new ones, the change in the car was massive. The obvious one was being able to put the power down instead of lighting up into silly wheelspin. But the corollary of that was that the lateral traction went from being fun to fast. It was more fun when it was loose. But the corollary to the corollary is that if I need to dodge a child in the road or emergency brake to avoid the arsehat who has just tipped a GWM on its side in front of me, then I've got a much better chance of that manoeuvre coming off without unintended "fun" meaning that I hit something else, or the original target.
    • Every time I have to buy new tyres I question what actual difference it makes between running $40 tyres and $300 tyres and whether it's worth it. Because that's a massive difference to the wallet. But then I did go to a driving training at some point which also included emergency braking and swerving in the wet. In part I think it was meant to show people how bad it gets. Funnily enough what I took away from it is that I can go much harder than I thought in my car. I presume mostly because of decent tyres. Some of the other cars there were shocking to behold. And a bit scary that cheap tyres are probably a lot more common on the road than decent ones  
    • I'm pretty sure that is just straight AI generated word soup, where did you receive that ad (facebook)? They misspell Pirelli twice, no human eyes looked at that before it was posted. Incidentally, I am running the chinese pirellis on my V37 and they are.....OK....I didn't go looking for them, they were just what the shop had in stock in the tall size that car needs. LIke any brand, you really can't trust the brand's reputation to apply to every product they produce. Pirelli make good and crap tyres, all with the same logo stamped on them, and all with an attempt at price premium due to the brand
