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

ive spent about 7 grand on the conversion but that includes coilovers etc.

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

      Definitely a hearty eater when we go out, I consider these meals my cheat day as I've been watching my calories in and calories out pretty hard since my little fun size stroke, I've gone from a fat boy of 89 Kg, I'm only 165cm tall/short, down to a almost semi lean 73 Kg over the last few years, I'm currently around 17% body fat which my doctor is very happy with, but, my goal is to slowly get down to and maintain 15%,so yeah, I want all of the protein, carbs, fats and sugars when I go out for a binge

      There was a great one on Victoria Rd in Gladesville too back in the day. I can only assume GTSBoy is thinking of the mill up on the wollondilly, no restaurant there any more but they have restored the original steam engine on site and run it every few months, have an annual steampunk festival etc @The Bogan, you came to the wrong town for restaurants. we have a few reasonable asian and indian options but the Paragon is as good as it gets otherwise. That brewery is apparently just opened, been meaning to give it a go some time. The Highlands have plenty of fancy options but I suspect you are more a hearty eater than fancy eater

      Going by the intake & injectors I'd be guessing it's a DE, check the head casting number, should be 5L8 on a DET, 5L7 I think is the DE number.
