the engine choice was sinple, i wanted reliable power, and could not look past the 1jz, especially after seeing ash's what hes got on it and the power it makes,

mine wont be as mental and my driving level is no where near ready, im aiming for about 220-240kws, that i can turn the key drift all day drive home, turn off wait till next day,

i have paid for eninge, waiting for a few thing to be touched up on it,

going an r155 gearbox, no i dont mean r154, i mean r155 out of a rwd hilux because its atleast $1000 cheaper smile.png

here is how the car sits atm waiting on engine, mounts, box

love the heat shield. How you going about wiring in all the wipers and other accesorries like headlights ect. I do admit i love the sound of a 1J on full tilt as much as i love an RB noise. Looking forward to seeing it once its in.

dont need to touch the hedlight wiring, wiper motor plug gets cut out of rb20 loom and ran with new loom,

im not doing the wiring, my mate manager of tmm (the workshop im using this week, is doing the patch loom,

motor got dropped in tonight and taken out for mount measurements, lom like it was made for an r32 engine bay

the engine and gearbox mounts have been made and with the mounts the mx83 tailshaft i got purly just for the yoke is now the exactl length of the r32 to diff and even the centre bearings line up with a bit of elongating, all that has to be done is get r32 diff uni put on mx83 tailshaft to keep diff changes normal,

stock 1jz twin manifolds to big single manifold peice has been made and looks wicked,

got a shopping list of bits to grab tomorrow and drop of at martins,

hopefully saturday a big day can be had and connect alot of things,

no pics as iphone pics are shocking

yeah full new custom 3inch exhuast straight through was made today will post pics tomorrow

car goes back to martins on tuesday night for hookup of wiring and all fuel, water, oil lines

might somehow get it going maybe before practice day

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
