Does anyone here on the forum have a 1jzgte-vvti swapped in a sc 300 or 400 or gs , if so, are you running stock turbo with stock manifold or do you have an aftermarket turbo with the stock exhaust manifold , if so please post pics . i am looking to upgrade my turbo but i can't remember if i saw a member here with a 1jzgte-vvti with an aftermarket turbo running on stock exhaust manifold . if anybody out there has done this please provide pics or link to it , thank you in advance .

My boy had one and he got fed up with the limited aftermarket parts available for this engine. Unfortunately, your options are to build a custom exhaust manifold which will be expensive or send out your turbo and they can upgrade the stock turbo which will give you around 450rwhp, but that will run you around $700. I think the company that does the turbo upgrade is Driftmotion.

I think i also saw an HKS turbo that was offered to bolt up to the stock manifold. It's not on their US website so i think it's only offered overseas. Costs an ***-load though, better finding a different turbo w/ a custom manifold setup. I'm debating this same thing if and when i decide to swap mine soon.

Someone on Supraforums was selling an aftermarket manifold and turbo for a 1jz vvti.

I'm still deciding at this point, but i would like to. The only thing holding me back right now is the lack of info out there on the swap and aftermarket support. Would make a good new years resolution

I have a 1JZ VVTI turbo. You guys have got to look into JZX100 VVTI manifolds. There isnt much support for Soarer 1JZ VVTI specific stuff but as the Chaser (JZX100) also runs a 1JZ VVTI a lot of the componenets are fine to use. As for me ill be using a Autobahn888 Chaser manifold with a Garrett GT35r with most probably a 0.63 housing.

I am dooing one as we speak, their are a few options for turbo upgrades, upgrade the stock ct15b, or making a t3 plate adapter if you can find a t3 with internal wastegate, im modifying a t61 to fit the stock manifold with a adapter plate, just make sure you get the maf and ignitor,

KingSoarer

Yeah i was gonna post up that CAD drawing of the adaptor plate, someone on soarercentral.com made it i think as thats were we have been discussing it.

Question regarding the MAF. Is it possible to use the MAF out of an SC3 or a MKIV? They look the same externally, but i wasn't sure about the connectors.

mkiv maybe, or the 97+ sc300 i think so.. but not the pre 97.... the vvti maf is plastic and round , i can check the pn on my maf if you need

if you could that would be great. I'm off work next week so i can't get a schematic of the SC pins until i get back.

Judging from some of the pics i've gathered they look VERY similar. Idk if they are interchangeable.

if you get lucky you can get a soarer 1jzgte vvti rear sump over a chaser front sump, thats what i did,
