Shake Shake Shake

So anyhoo Ive had the t78 on ebay for a few days now...just to see if there is any intrest..and because it looks look bloody hard to get it all to fit in nicely...and yep...reserve has been met :D

Sooooo on the hunt for something that is maybe a bit more responsive on the 1jz....thinking maybe a PT6262...but dunno yet...will see what happens I guess

lol...well 2 hours later the turbo oil drain is fitted....sounds like a simple job yes......LOL

1JZ Soarer = same a TT 300ZX lol

had to take out a steering rack mount bolt, turn it upside down, so the bolt head faces the sky and make up a washer for it.

Looks like the oil drain kit I bought is for a front or rear sump JZ and not the mid sump engine....oh well...its in now...goes around infront of the bottom radiator hose to make sure it clears the manifold (plus its a bit long)

Also discovered the front crank seal is leaking a bit (common JZ problem) so I am covered in oil after being under the car.

Now just have to elongate the holes in the manifold flange (lol flange) which will be fun using my pissy little dremel on stainless....mind you I have ported cast iron heads using it lol

The 6262 exhaust wheel will choke before you can benefit from the high flow front wheel.. I doubt you'll be able to run 30+psi on a gt35 sized exhaust wheel.. Id go straight to the 65 rear wheel and deal with a few hundred extra lag.. What gearbox you running?

Standard Auto Trans for now.

I wasnt really concerned abooooot the 62mm rear wheel, I am more worried about the small split housing.

But how much more lag will the 6266 have? At this stage it looks like the 6262 will only be 500rpm in front of the t78

Will only be turning to 7200rpm until I can build an engine....then It will go OVER 9000! (well more like 8000 lol)

Hmm more research needed

As Lith mentioned in the precision thread plain bearings aren't known for reliability if I was going to run low boost I'd just go with something tested like a 3582.. If you have plans of building the motor I'd scarifices a small amount of lag increase and get the 65 rear then you have the option of turning it up later. If you go 6262 your limiting yourself for a few hundred rpm spool..

yeah, just found a few results of 6265s making 400+kws and reasonable response, so might be the go

MV kit I will probably get...but I am hankering for a manual box, so time will tell what i'm going to do there.

I do like corners more than drag strips these days lol.

I think I have decided on a PT6262 though, and will just wind boost into it until it stops making power...the auto will go pop before the turbo gets into its stride anyway. and 6262s have run 8s in EVO's so we shall see

+ I still have standard cams and head so a 6266 will be wasted on this engine.

will go something silly big if I build a 2J ;)

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
