heres a big update

engine and gearbox is in, all mounts made by me, ive made up a set of custom dump pipes which have come up absolutely mint, and just get around the skyline steering arm!!!

got a 5 puck carbonic button clutch with ultralight flywheel, hd pressure plate

the speedo drive from the skyline was a perfect match to the r154 gearbox AWESOME!

the soarer throttle cable was nearlly identical to the skyline one apart from length, so with minor modification it fit AWESOME!

Lots of stuff matches up between nissan and toyota which is making the conversion very easy.

not long now and itll all be running.

I would kill for a 1j 32, I'm wanting to convert mine to a 1j later on when it inevitably gets yellowed and becomes a track/drift car. How much roughly would this set one back if not needing to get it engineered/registered.

i made my dump pipes, iam a mechanic at an exhaust shop

I wish my stock turbo 1J would do that...might have something to do with my car weighing 1800kgs lol.

Anyhoo who did your dump pipe? I really like it

the exhaust is twin 2.5 inch from the turbos the whole way to the back of the car. (2.5inch off each turbo) all it has are one straight through resonator on each pipe at the rear.

sounds like a rotor on full noise!

ill see what i can do about a vid

Conflicting emotions........ Have always been a toyota man owned a Gt4 celica my old man has a tt soarer which ive had alot of fun in too but now im a nissan owner lol! Nice work mate the 1jz is 1 of the best donks ever made! If there was as much aftermarket support for the yotas as the nissans i probably never woulda jumped on the nissan boat. Nice build though buddy bet shes a screamer in the lil 32 the old boys snoarer pops along well with few lil tweaks and the 32 probably weighs as much as the 2 doors of the soarer hahaha

      It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.

      First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm.

      All jokes aside, OP they're just called R32 oem rims as you said. The Nissan engineers back in the late 80's loosely copied the design from the Koya Driftek which was designed and produced about 18 years later.
