Supra 98 model RZ, with 19in wheels....38K. VVTi and all that.

Car was immaculate. Still maybe for sale. If your interested I'll pass on the guys details to you.

had a look at a few today. Some shocking examples.

Im going for the 2JZ (with vvti) over the RB25det (went thru same delemma as well). The 2JZ really is technologically miles more advanced than the GT-T in every respect. Its also far more advanced than the rb26dett.

Sequentail turbos, lots of torque down low, much better components (which is why its bullet proof) and larger capacity.

only reason i ended up with the gtst is due to the turbo & price, once you go turbo, there is no goin back to a NA. The 2jz is a strong engine - but the NA i think is boring.

Having said that - put a RZ and a r33/r34 gtr side by side, i would not have a clue as to what to go for - I like them both. But now that the new gtr is coming out - i think the supra maybe a little out dated.....hmmm...as you can see...even when im writing this, i have no idea what I would buy.....

Good choice Tracid. Those who are saying they'd rather a GT-T need to drive a 2JZ turbo car :P When deciding on a car to buy, i only JUST chose an R33 over an older MA70 Supra with a 1JZ conversion, and that was only because the interior was a shocker (main thing) and i didn't like the back of it. The only thing that puts me off a Supra RZ is the interior. The JZ series engines are awesome.

Though Supra RZ vs (any) GT-R is a tougher decision IMO.

Yeah, I would take an RZ over a 34 GTT any day. Although the 34 is newer, it reminds me too much of a 33 (very upright driving position), whereas the Supra 'feels' like a sports car, while at the same time, being a road rocket.

Good choice.

    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
