Hey DRD-00F that is one big turbo but does that thing really goin 2 fit in the supra.? but look forward 2 seeing your pics on that supra, just wondering does the supra have more engine space or does the skyline have more.?

StockyMcStock thats just supercharge rite.? no turbo yeah.. that sc looks like a sc-14 but it also looks like the kompressor supercharge i saw on ebay... thats pretty impressive power for an sc tho but duno how much mods he had 2 do 2 get to this power...

paulr33 just thought maybe reving harder could catch up a bit on the shifting on turbo cars, but u r rite rev hard doesnt mean more power but unless u reali mod it out properli but i just thought sometimes thinking of the normal way of power is a change might find some kewl ideas..

Anyone trust e-sc..? i'm thinkin of giving it a ago imagine e-sc + sc + T man i think i'm starting to go mad here........ miner.gif

erm....... no it's not. see the wastegate high mounted at the back of the engine bay?

here is the manifold:

here it is with just the turbo:

SV100111.jpg

which is fairly large:

SV100073.jpg

here is a youtube video i made of it:

this engine shits all over a turbo-only setup in almost every way.

p.s. i was thinking of making kits but it's too expensive and nobody could really afford it.

Edited by StockyMcStock

well i built the bottom end myself with new pistons, so that was super cheap.

had the head reconditioned, ported it myself.

made the exhaust manifold for $150 all up

the only real extra costs above a single turbo setup are the blower purchase price ($300), modifying the drive snout ($200), billet drive system ($500) and belts ($40) the steel was basically free and the idler bearing was cheap as chips.

it would cost a LOT if you asked a shop to do it. not to mention they would have NFI how to make it work. even the bloke who tuned it on the dyno didn't understand it.

Heres the supra i was talking about... you can see part of the engine in, the turbo and super chargers are mounted... and that thing at the front is a radiator, not an intercooler...

custom made exhaust manifold... not the first one they made... but best one for the job...

anyway, its coming along nicely... we're still waiting on parts and what not...

Thats look sweet it looks like an earlier model of the supra is that rite.?

So how long is this project goin to take.?

were still waiting on some of the internals to come form the US, but i think they are on their way and being rushed... after that, theres still body work, electronics an paint... 'late march' has been uttered from time to time... but so was 'before christmas' 5 months ago...

i put money down when it started that it would pass easter... im gunna make $50 soon i think :(

they work pretty quick, its jsut parts that take forever...

man the dump pipe clearance to the firewall must be tight.

when i was looking at making kits for the 2jz supras i had a good measure up of it all, everything seemed far too tight at the back and you couldn't fit a GT42 compressor in between the engine and strut tower, but they've managed to jam it in behind somehow. dump pipe must be TIGHT!

what sort of blower is it? looks like one of the TRD ones, which are (as far as i can tell) enlarged and revised SC-14's. i hope it has the capabilities to produce the required boost and not run into the redline of the blower.

p.s. if the guys need any tech support, let me know. i trust they're using a bypass gate?

i dunno... im not a mechanic... but they've done all this before, never on a supra, and not quite to this extenet, but they have done it before...

and yeah, shit was tight on the 2JZ before hand anyway... now its gunna be really tight.

and yeah im pretty sure it is the TRD one... ive got one at home from the states that i tried to sell him but it was too big... might put it on the MX5 instead... gutless POS...

im not going there this weekend as i have paintball, but my mate is... ill let you know if there are any updates over the weekend...

I think he meant the MX5 was gutless.

haha yeah i did... the MX5 is gutless, and the supercharger is literally too big for this application... basically in just size...

im heading to the shop tomorrow... ive got some shit to talk about... ill see what they're up to... :(

If you´re after a turbo and a supercharger on a car, I seem to recall a car that did that. I´m pretty sure it was the Nissan march or something similiar. From memory it came equipped with a turbocharger and a supercharger with a clutch that engaged one or the other.

Oh, found a link:

http://www.carfolio.com/specifications/models/id/?id=132715

yep, it´s T&S/charged

small engine though.

If you found out how it was done, maybe it would help.

***UPDATE***

they felt the supra was too heavy for the mods, so they chucked it on this trolley instead :rofl:

yeah i dunno, they're waiting for some internals that still haven't come from the US... no real progress can be done til they get in...

DRD 00F Please keep us posted.!

Hi All,

I have purchased this e-sc and going to put it on with a turbo setup on my n/a i was also thinking getting a chipped n/a ecu then a emanager, any other suggests of this setup.? i'm tryin to keep as low as possible in budget. thanks.

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
