very cool man. are you going to take it to the track? how does it hook out of hole? any wheel hop?

adamgamz

I don't know about wheel hop yet, I haven't tried launching it hard. If the weather is good Friday I'll probably hit the track, I think I can beat the record 12.1 on pump gas and stock tires, I'm only running about 16-17 psi now, I need to work on my wastegate / boost controller next, it's not working right now so I'm stuck at 16 psi or so for now. I think the GS is making over 500RWHP right now.

hes got an aristo TT swap with a *****-ton of work built into it.


THAT is what's making the car an animal, the manual is simply letting it out of it's cage. he just said above i believe that he's making 500whp on 16psi with room for a lot more once he fixes wastegate and boost control.

hey adam, how many pounds are you planning on running anyways?

Ishinc

Looks great!

adamgamz

1.2 bar which is around 17 psi right now. I wouldn't go more than 19psi on pump gas just to be safe. Once I fix my boost controller / wastegate I plan to fill up with E85 and crank the boost up some more. BTW I never swapped in the Aristo motor, this is still the factory longblock that came with my car. I simply swapped pistons / rods / bearings / headgasket / custom intake manifold / GTE camshafts. The block and head are original, no need to swap as these motors make just as much power as the GTE's when built.

before that post he never mentioned power #'s...my post was before his. I knew that the car was an animal (like every 2jz GTE swapped GS300) but I just thought it was like most members' on this board only with a manual swap though. I am learning that it is a MUCH more serious car than I anticipated. Congrats again Adam!

adamgamz

Thanks man. If the weather is good I'll hit Speedworld Friday to try ad beat the record 12.1 1/4 mile. That shouldn't be a problem on street tires with the boost controller turned off.

adamgamz

I took theGS on the highway and played with the boost controller, it works great. I just had to change some settings in the Greddy Profec. I now have low boost at 1.1 bar and high boost at 1.4 bar. It feels strong at 1.4 bar! I need to find an alignment shop to work on the car now that it's lowered. Big 10 said they couldn't do it today becasue my bodykit was in the way of the sensors.

Damn so after this allignment !!!! its time to get the car timed on the track !

excellent to see a long time member posting up big thangs !

speeder

Glad to hear that Profec is working...

If you go to the track Fri. night gimme a call and I'll come & bring the laptop for some 1/4 mile tuning.

adamgamz

alright Rick, that sounds like a plan. I like ot get there early to get a few runs in before it gets crowded. I think the gates open at 6:00, I'll try to be there by 5:30 if the weather is good.

Adamgamz, will the gentlemen that helped you with your Trans swap be willing to sell a "Package Deal" i.e. Trans, Labor, etc..? Fabrication and what not?

adamgamz

PM Speeder, that is Rick. He's the guy that did all of my work or call him at 321-544-3089

Do you guys have any pictures of the twin intank pump setup? I had my swapped GS300 on the dyno the other day and i cant go over 17psi because my single 255 cant keep up. I can fab up pretty much anything i need to make for the install but i was wondering if you had any pictures i could go by? I was going to rewire the whole thing but i think i want both pumps on at the same time because when the nitrous hits i am at full boost within milliseconds .That or i was thinking about going with a 044 inline and leaving the 255 intake by itself as a feeder.
Once i get this done i can hit the track and then sell it and start a new lexus project.......lol

thanks
