To me the throttle cable fits fine. It's better than spending a lot of cash getting a supra 2jzgte cable new from the dealer.

Anyway lookin good

 

so iam removing my stock twins. and iam offically going single... so looking at a cheapo tublar manifold where i can get it braced with some metal for more sturdyness... looking at this setup..

And cheaping out on the wastegate..

i did want to get this cx racing manifold because they do make good ****. but the godspeed offers more items..

if i go v band getting this downpipe


http://www.ebay.com/itm/140568123039...84.m1438.l2649


but might just stay internal wastegatted for ease of welding and keeping things simpler..all depends on what the hx 40 i get comes with??

 

I wouldn't cheap out on the wastegate man. My friend did purchase the manifold and downpipe and the fitment was fine.

 

Really like your build up here...

you´re not far away

 

Great build. Cant wait to see it finished.

 

Hey ese comment de los imigrantes te ase ver pero si bien pendejo. You should choose you words wiesly. No ablar a lo pendejo. Build looks good.

 

wut???

link to said s14 plz??

 

well it's time for updates. getting colder than ballz here in m.o. and iam working 2nd shift. and i got this beater truck iam pondering on keeping for a winter daily. (an 89 d21 nissan).

so working in my cold dark lair gets annoying sometimes... thanks to a certian member who is also doing a sc400 swap. i saved a ton of money not having to buy oem or arp fwheel bolts..

spent 7 beans on these and seems to fit perfectly. some BLUE locktite and iam ready to go..





so i went to autozone and orderes a fel(you up) pro rear main seal. came with the gasket also for the circle thing around the seal. didn't bother changing it as it looks to have some rtv sealant instead...

so tacking the rear main seal on guess i went way too far..




did a comparison on my ge engine and yep i put it too far on.. so took it off and went to az, they sent me a replacement i have to pick up..

 

looks good man!

 

so i finally got around to removing these damn stock twins. and i never never want to do this again... i mean things did get easier when i got my ratcheting cresant wrench and when i finally came up with mt cheater bar idea then it went smoothly. i HIGHLY recommend to anyone doing this or working with cars in general.

you

must

have

the

proper

tools!!!

i never had a ratcheting cresant before. and that did make things much easier. and the cheater bar saved a lot of curses for down the road..

so going single. and here we go...





got all the cold side pipes off that was pretty much easy and straight forward.

above is the bar used from my crafstman jack. doing this made remving the exhaust bolts a breeze. luckily none of them were rusted bad and i didn't strip anything..





this was the hardest bolt to get to. but removing the coolant neck also made that simple..





and the finished product??? a 1JZGE FOR A LIMITED TIME...

the exhaust ports were really grimey.







this sucker is going on sale........ now $100.00+shp for this and pipes and all..


so heres a question. do i need a ge coolant pipe??





and also since iam going to run an hx and it;s only going to be oil fed. i need to plug one of these ports right?? which one would be better to use??





thats all for now..

 

im pretty sure that thing that sits behind the bumper on the driver side with the fins is a intake. i had to remove it when i did my fmic. nice to see a update in here. nice work, cant wait to see it when its done man.

 

i plan on running a hx35 on a 1.5jz real soon, good luck with the PJ

 

use the front oil supply hole.

get a m12x1.25 oil drain plug from the parts store screw it in, torque it good. ur done.

i believe you need to order a m12x1.25 to -4 AN block adapter to provide oil to your turbo.

and -4 AN steel braided hose with a length of about 24 to 30 inches might be plenty.

 

the manifold kit should work for you. just make sure that your turbo setup doesn't hit the strut tower. i got that similar manifold, except my manifold was a T3 and i didnt use the screamer pipe. doesn't really work on the space my car provided. i also had to hack up that downpipe till I fit my setup.

the wastegate seems expensive for an ebay item. i've seen it before. its really kinda lousy. doesn't come with installation instructions. and it never seems to hit 12psi like it claims. u might hit 5psi with it all the time. but 12. maybe.

doens't Driftmotion sell the same stuff? i think they are even cheaper than some of the stuff on ebay.

 

did u already buy the wastegate?? i baught a xs wastegate 50mm thats brand new, i thought i could use it for the flange but it didn't fit with my hks wastegate, if ur interested i could give it to you for 40 + shipping
