progress pics on the NA-T / TT hybrid

[gixxer750]

This is my GTE block/GE head hybrid... this is the current progress as of this weekend. Shouldn't be too much longer before I'm dropping it in the 93.5

[suprahero]

That's going to be a sweet ride Chris. I got mine cranked today, and I'm going to start breaking it in tomorrow...........wooot!!!!

[gixxer750]

I'll probably be calling you with questions before too long Jay. lol

[suprahero]

I started breaking mine in already and it feels awesome to drive it again. Call me whenever Chris. You've got my number. See ya.

[TopNotch2JZ]

Hahaha, might as well just call me, cause Jay will call me for answers anyways! ;) I will be doing NA-T as well hopefully not too long but I will be doing straight up complete GE motor.

[AF1JZ]

Hahaha, might as well just call me, cause Jay will call me for answers anyways! ;) I will be doing NA-T as well hopefully not too long but I will be doing straight up complete GE motor.

I'll be starting my NA-T project soon as well. I just need some MKIII 440 injectors and a wideband. I'm pretty sure I have everything else for now.

[gixxer750]

440's... weaksauce... these are 750cc ;)

I'm going to post some more pics of the car up soon

[Amontgomery]

BTW Chris. I keep forgetting to tell you that I have the stock front plug cover that came on the car. Its black and shiny. I'll bring it when I come back down in August.

[gixxer750]

lol... k. I aquired the lexus one from a buddy. I figured you know... lexus is baller, so what the hell. Its just something to have on it till I get TT cam covers(Damn those are expensive)

[gixxer750]

some of the chassis this is going in.

Oh and jay, thinking of taking a ride over to bama soon..

[AF1JZ]

440's... weaksauce... these are 750cc ;)


It is just those for now. I'm still on the auto tranny. So, I can't push too much boost. Once I can get the money to go 5 speed, then I'll be putting the 1.3mm headgasket on and bigger injectors.

[gixxer750]

I've got a TT auto trans laying around.....

[BJ91T]

ok lets race my dsm vs your supra :)

[gixxer750]

sure... I know you won't make it to the end without blowing up...

[AF1JZ]

I've got a TT auto trans laying around.....

Oh yea? What else would I need to put it in my car? I don't know too much about the auto trans.

[gixxer750]

you would have to find a way to control it. I have an aem... or you can do the na valve body in the TT trans... clubna-t has bunches of info on it

[suprahero]

When do you expect to have it finished Chris? Keep an eye out on that TopNotch guy. He's not above driving over to Missississississississississippi and pulling the turbo parts off.........:biglaugh:

[noah89t]

chris, is that the head from bj's house? looks good by the way.
i am ready for another ccs meet, probably in mandeville at my parents again but everyone needs to figure a date that they are free.

[gixxer750]

No, I aquired this head elsewhere. It was bought from a local performance shop. I rebuilt it myself with BC springs and titanium retainers. New valve seals, and a valve job were also performed on it. Its better than new.

I'm ready for a meet too. I'm off every weekend now. I'll be down for scraping the coast for sure.

[gixxer750]

progress held up at moment. waiting on parts from titan, an intake manifold, an oil pan from toyota, the rest of my clutch pedal stuff from toyota. Also waiting on my cams to get here.

[TopNotch2JZ]

How much was all of the clutch pedal stuff? Seems I looked it up one time and it was only like $125. I could be completely off though. Are you going from auto to manual or something, and what transmission? I already bought a v160 for mine, but I still gotta get everything else for the swap.

[gixxer750]

Prices at wholesale cost from toyota. I ordered everything on the diagram. Ran me about 395

Clutch master $99
Clutch Pedal $48
Clutch Pedal bracket $ 62
MT Brake pedal $41ish
various and other assorted nuts screws bolts and other items make up the rest. Like the return spring, cruise neutral safety switch, clutch switch....etc

Very expensive to do it right, but hey... may as well.

[foreverpsycotic]

Chris, 2 questions. 1 what are you doing with the ge block and 2 are you going to do a custom FFIM on that beast.

[gixxer750]

Not custom but FFIM yes. The GE block is going in.... well, lets just say something familiar to you. I've got three heads, three blocks, and lots of other parts at this point.

[hottscennessey]

Make sure you put cams in this beast, 100+whp gain on my 2JZGE-T ;)

What do you have planned for engine management?

[gixxer750]

AEM EMS

I'm using a TT shortblock that I rebuilt. It had 10k miles on it, developed rodknock due to previous owner stupidity. Everything else was unhurt. Got a new connecting rod, ARP rod bolts, ARP main's, ACL bearings, and a good crankshaft. Pistons were coated on the skirts. I put new toyota rings in it, a brand new TT oil pump, new oem toyota head gasket, ARP head studs, aftermarket springs and titanium retainers in the head along with a valve job and new seals. I did a mild pocket port around the back of the valve seats while it was apart. Yes, I'm doing cams too.

Should be good for whatever the poor little 67 will blow. The turbo on my engine made 716 on a TT engine with aem at one point in time. That was with stock head, stock internals, stock cams and bunches of other stock stuff. Should be a big deal to pull numbers close to yours with what I've got. You running an R154?

[hottscennessey]

Yea, still running the R154. Sounds like you're going to have a solid setup! It's going to be a blast to say the least.

[gixxer750]

I bet I break 500whp in texas next year... maybe a good bit more. 500 is my goal for pump gas @ under 18 psi.

The distributor is going away when I get my hands on some VVTI coil pack goodness.

[TopNotch2JZ]

Yeah, when I said clutch pedal assembly, I was just talking about that not any of the brake or master cylinder or anything. so I was about right. I am gonna be getting all of that stuff too here one of these days. I am gonna skip the nuetral safety switch and possibly that other switch too.

I love the t67's and it is what I will be starting out with when I first go turbo, and from there I am gonna move up to the GT42R and probably call it quits there. If the t67 made 716 on a TT engine with AEM, it's not gonna make much more on your engine even with all the extra stuff, cause they only flow like 750.

I too hope to make 500 on pump with a t67, actually I am wanting 550 on pump, but whatever I can get. Then I am gonna add meth injection, or run e85 and shoot for 650 daily.

What kind of cams are you looking at and are you gonna go with an MKIII CPS or use a TT cam trigger when you go distributorless?

[foreverpsycotic]

Not custom but FFIM yes. The GE block is going in.... well, lets just say something familiar to you. I've got three heads, three blocks, and lots of other parts at this point.

Do I get to help with the street tune and level out the AFR under WOT again :evil2:

[supramanocnsd]

I am a little lost on why you are so set on a NA-t it sounds like U have a TT head and short block there... so why not put a TT in there?

[gixxer750]

I'm going Na-T because the head flows better, and I don't have any TT accessories. The head will flow more than 750 hp no problem. I'm going to run a TT crank trigger, with a pickup behind a cam gear, and magnets in the gear.

[TopNotch2JZ]

Oh so the Hall effect setup?

[gixxer750]

more pics. just got the front bumper on yesterday. I'm going to let the paint cure a little longer, and then the lip goes on.

(Chris has bought a Jellybean and must be destroyed)

[gixxer750]

lol... I've still got the 88 too... just need to put a powerplant in it.

[suprahero]

I remember when he was just one of the guys Ian. Now he's one of those people...........:biglaugh:





The car looks great Chris...........:love:

[supramanocnsd]

those people???? what people? a REAL Supra owner? lol

[gixxer750]

thats not even right...

The mk3 is more of a real supra than the mk4 any day... lol 3 way power driver's seat? Weaksauce. no heated mirrors also FTL.

[Reign_Maker]

Huge price tag: FTMFL... ;)

Chris, car looks good man... Change the wing to a TRD and get new wheels, and it's gunna look sweeeeet!

BTW: you bringin that thing to Florida? ;)

[gixxer750]

So, today has been a good day to play with the car some... more pics. I went ahead and put the lip on, and started on my seats... Black leather= FTW! Brand new katskinz front and rear going in over the course of the week, as well as black carpet.

[Reign_Maker]

FINE! Dont reply to my post... And I thought we were friends, lol...

Dude, that blue is sexy! I thought it was black... And whats the story with the hood, I thought it was carbon fibre, but it looks primered in the last pics...

[gixxer750]

what post jake?

The hood is carbon, but the gelcoat is screwed. I'm trying to fix it, but if that doesn't work I'll paint it.

The car is black with loads and loads of blue flake, and a little red flake mixed in. Really interesting paint color.

[suprahero]

I'm pretty sure Jake is right and the paint is blue. Maybe you've got a small piece of leather in your eyes from doing the seat covers............:biglaugh:

[gixxer750]

Huge price tag: FTMFL... ;)

Chris, car looks good man... Change the wing to a TRD and get new wheels, and it's gunna look sweeeeet!

BTW: you bringin that thing to Florida? ;)

My price tag was cheap!

Keeping the oem wing, but I am going to get some CCW's in the future.

Yep, probably bringing it to florida, unless I've got a motor back in my 88 ;)

[gixxer750]

6000K HID's x6 installed today. High beams, low beams, and fogs. Foglight rewire done too.

That shit is stupid bright on highbeam. Its like amplified daylight. WOW.

Pics later. Bed now. out!

[Reign_Maker]

Amplified daylight! OMG! That made me laugh...

[Wills7MGTE]

you need to tint the windows, I love a blk car with blk interior and tint, and maybe powder coat favctory rims or buy black volk te37's

[Wills7MGTE]

It'd be nice with a 98 front bumper, I'm not bi on that plain ol bumper, it looks good though

[gixxer750]

um, that is a 98 bumper without the grille. Grille is another piece... and I don't like it.

[Reign_Maker]

Dude, I tried to call you yesterday... Holla...

[Alpinesupra]

looking good there chris.
keep it coming.

-sean

[gixxer750]

Got my seats finished, cleaned the carpet, cut and buffed the front bumper. Hooked up amp on highs, and an 8" bass tube.

Also, since I'm waiting on parts for the motor, I got bored. I installed a nitrous kit I had laying around jetted at 150 hp. Car is much much more peppy now. I can hit the button at 4500 rpm in second and light up my 275 bfg's through an auto. Its almost like a turbo car, except without the turbo... lol

Will post pics later, as I'm about to leave for the weekend headed to scraping the coast.(car show)

[noah89t]

we need those videos of the naked girl in the bikini contest chris.

[Reign_Maker]

Chris, I hear weather made S/t/C a little crappy this year...

[noah89t]

it was bearable jake. made fun for chris and i to play around on the wet roads.

[gixxer750]

whats that you say? Worn out vagina vids? LOL....


I think I'm going to come back down for cruising the coast with my motor swap done...

[noah89t]

come on down, cruisin the coast is a much bigger show, since it is about 9 days long. you know you have a place to stay if you want it.
now, bring on the naked bikini contest videos. i know you have them.

[gixxer750]

[gixxer750]

no snail yet, its still on the engine stand. there is a power adder there though!

[suprahero]

all I see is a stock NA and some iddy biddy nitrous lines...............:evil2:

[gixxer750]

Its not stock, its got a header, intake, and full exhaust. thats probably good for like 6 whp or so.... lol.. the nitrous however, is good for 150... ;) Probably enough power to keep up with you through the quarter since I've got an auto behind it ;) (j/K)

[noah89t]

Probably enough power to keep up with you through the quarter since I've got an auto behind it ;) (j/K)

it wasn't enough to keep up with my fuel cut hitting boat:3d_frown: on interstate at 13psi:evil2:

They must've deleted just the good ones, because what was left, :puke: Dude... Ape titties FTMFL!!! YUCK! I mean, just because you HAVE titties, doesnt mean you should SHOW titties... And that girl had NO ass... Nothing I love seein more than a flat assed white girl tryin to do the rump shaker... Entertaining, yes... Would I hit it? :sarcasm:

[gixxer750]

it wasn't enough to keep up with my fuel cut hitting boat:3d_frown: on interstate at 13psi:evil2:

With an empty bottle and the fuel feed unhooked ;)

[empera]

might as well ask this question here...i think i've looked this up before but just for my peace of mind...Do 2jzgte and GE share the same Auto tranny?

[gixxer750]

nope. not a bit. same case though

[empera]

so they are not interchangeable...

[noah89t]

With an empty bottle and the fuel feed unhooked ;)

excuses are like ass holes!:biglaugh:

[gixxer750]

I'll show ya an excuse next time ;)

[noah89t]

are you still gonna try to get the parts you need from the sc300?

[gixxer750]

More progress will be posted in the next week.. LOTS of progress.

[lppro]

cool man i loved your mk3, cant wait to see the mk4 when you finish it!

[gixxer750]

still going to post progress pics. New wheels were put on today. 18X8.5 fronts, 18X10 rears... 4" of lip in the rear.... oh man the car looks much much much better!

[jmcboost]

Wow, I think the wheels made a big difference!!! Looks Great!!!:aigo:

[Halsupramk3]

really nice setup. those wheels make a difference. i thought you like chrome wheels on black cars. those do have a aluminum accent around the edge which sets them apart from the car. really nice addition.

I bet that car still sounds like a chick car with no turbo yet.

does this mean i can get my TT wheels back?

[Reign_Maker]

Hal, I love your sig line... lmao... Thats gunna be me, if Im lucky, lol... Finally running again after 3 years.

Car looks good Chris... Cant wait to see her in person...

[gixxer750]

I bet that car still sounds like a chick car with no turbo yet.



At least I can drive my car ;)


Making fun of me will do you no good. I have leverage... Like my first time EVER driving your car..... at the track I ran .2 seconds faster than you :p

[noah89t]

still going to post progress pics. New wheels were put on today. 18X8.5 fronts, 18X10 rears... 4" of lip in the rear.... oh man the car looks much much much better!

i thought you were going to get the ccw's?

[gixxer750]

I was... but then I got to thinking about how I could spend that twenty five hundred extra dollars on something else instead.

[gixxer750]

Well, just waiting on an intake manifold. Other than that everything is done. wiring is finished, pedals are installed, trans shifter mod is done. Driveshaft is ready, clutch is here....

Not much left to do to go from NA auto to 5 speed Single..... Mainly just swap the engine.

[noah89t]

i hope you plan on posting up some pics of the progress and final product chris

[gixxer750]

yep, as soon as I locate my camera

[noah89t]

check your center console

[gixxer750]

not there.. no camera....


I had the harness on the motor, had to pull it back off to wire in crank sensor.... doh.

I'm using an NA harness, took it apart and ran all new wiring for VVTI coil setup, ignitor, map sensor, IAT sensor, crank and cam sensors. All unnecesary wiring was removed such as that for the egr, vsv's, stock coil, stock 02's, stock distributor, and all extra unneeded things. Wiring for AC, power steering, and other things was retained. All of it was installed back into the harness, reloomed and wrapped. It appears stock that way at this point. Wiring will be tucked under the intake manifold, and not be visible from the top of the engine bay anywhere possible.

Very little left to do at this point. I just ordered up polished TT cam covers with -10AN fittings welded in for crankcase vents. Should have them installed shortly.

One of the last things to do is figure out what speed sensor aaron is using to convert to R154 trans.

[IJ.]

You got the 7M in that thing yet Chris? ;)

[empera]

sorry to post this on here but i cant seem to find anyone to help.
do u know where this plug goes (its touching the starter)

It's coming along. Looking to get some pics up soon.

your's worked so well in houston:naughty:
i think bj and i also had to change 2 broken parts on george's 2j in houston also:3d_frown:
i don't remember any 7m's being worked on in houston:biglaugh:
sorry jay, i had to point these things out

For the record, I never worked on my car in Houston. I changed the plugs, but that was it................I drove it from Houston to my house with only two cylinders intact at 95 mph for 11 hours straight with no problems.........:evil2:

So why wasn't your car drove to Houston again...............:sarcasm:

[empera]

EMP: EGR temp sensor.

It's coming along. Looking to get some pics up soon.

damn thats wat i thought but this TRAC light has me thrown off...thanks tho man!

[gixxer750]

Mine ran fine... except for the starter falling off because someone *cough* BJ *cough* didn't tighten the starter bolts when we put the trans in the night before texas.

That and an alternator died. The rest of the problem was some electrical thing. Actual problems related to the 7m longblock? absolute zero. The 7m held plenty of boost(28 psi on the street after the dyno day and the drag day) several times.

so no, I have to problem with the 7m at all.... lol.

[noah89t]

OUCH...........:wtc:

either my intake manifold gasket had a leak and i didn't have a replacement at the moment or i was too broke to drive there. thanks for reminding me that i'm poor:(

Chris, get that car done yet homie? You need to get this done, so you can start on the MKIII.

Looks Great!! What is the ID of the log part on intake manifold?

[gixxer750]

4 inch

[Halsupramk3]

dam sure took long enough for this problem to be remidied. Shame you had to go thru that other BS before you found sethron to do it.

what would he charge for a mk3 long runner FFIM?

all that will look great in the car.

[gixxer750]

$615 was the price. probably about the same for the mk3.

[gixxer750]

some more stuff....

Ready to go in the car.

[bmoss85]

your projects looks really good, its got me wanting to scrap my mkiii and buy my buddy 96 n/a.

[noah89t]

looking good chris, sorry i missed your call. i am over my minutes for the month. call me after nine

[gixxer750]

Noah, if you've got to get away from the hurricane, you are welcome at my place if need be. I know it's pretty far away though.

[noah89t]

thanks for the offer chris, hopefully the storm is weak when it stops by and no one has to evacuate, but it is a waiting game for the most part. i will let you know which way i go if i leave. i wouldn't mind using this as an excuse to do something fun.

[gixxer750]

Progress! It's got to look worse before it gets better. Here is the worse... Engine bay stripped and ready for paint. Paint goes on in 1 hour. We'll give it two days to cure, and then stick that thing on the stand in it.

[noah89t]

looks a hell of a lot better now chris. hopefully it's done in time for oct. 11

[WhtMa71]

Wow looks great! The engine bay looks wayy better than it did. That manifold looks pretty awesome as well. Whats next on your to do list?

[92nsx]

Congrats!!!! you are one of the few people that have actually covered/taped up the opening on the turbo/intake so dust and any other crap dosent settle in them while there working on the engine.:thumbup::thumbup: (yep, you get 2 thumbs up)

[noah89t]

so what is the current progress looking like chris? will it be ready for next weekend? i guess you can always drive the cressida down

[gixxer750]

Car is together and cranks.

Needs 1 intercooler pipe, the clutch to be bled, and tuned.

Hopefully we will be bringing it down next weekend.

[gixxer750]

it lives

::w00t:: Way to go!

[noah89t]

sorry to hear about your cressida chris.
i hope this video was taken after we spoke on the phone.
now get the clutch bled and tune that beast

[gixxer750]

clutch is bled, intercooler pipe has been cut and will be welded tomorrow afternoon.

Got to order a shift boot from toyota, as I forgot about it.

Other than that, done.

[gixxer750]

Here ya go. These should be pictures from 3 hours later than this one, but my camera battery died.

[bmoss85]

man your car is looking good!! you've come a long way on it.

[noah89t]

i see the bumper was magically put back on. woohooo

[superfreestyle]

It blew up on the dyno tonight. Cause of failure is uncertain. Complete compression loss on cylinder 2.

[suprahero]

That's a bitch for sure. I was looking forward to seeing that car in Bama in a couple of weeks. Good luck with the rebuild Chris.

[hottscennessey]

whoa.. what EMS, AEM right?

[WhtMa71]

Ouch..that sucks.

[noah89t]

it sucked when you called hal and told him about your motor.

[jugodegolf]

:3d_frown::3d_frown:

Chris I feel for you man.

[noah89t]

thanks for the call chris, i think it would be great if you could talk marshall into joining us at one of our ccs meets.

[noah89t]

what's the word on the rebuild?

[gixxer750]

Since I'm back, I guess I should update my thread...

[bmoss85]

Yay for updates. The car is looking and sounding good!

[empera]

are u still using the AEM? wat caused u to detonate? i might've missed it.

[gixxer750]

I posted it on SF, I've not been here for quite a while.


AEM, in their wonderful NA map, made a mistake(oh no's not AEM making a mistake)

On the ignition phasing, instead of using all the TT numbers, or just the NA numbers, they chose to use a randomly chosen number for an NA on coil 1.

The phasing numbers should always end in the same decimal point, as the cylinders always fire an identical number of degrees of crankshaft rotation.

Instead they use 22.00 5.53 and 1.53

It should be 21.53 5.53 and 1.53 along with three others for the 6 coil setup.

Since I am running a 3 coil setup, I only use the first three numbers in the map on a 24 tooth setup and fire each coil twice for wasted spark. This results in coil 1(cylinder 2 and 5) firing at a different timing than the other cylinders. Since the phasing numbers are based off of a 24 tooth cycle and you have 360 degrees of crank rotation, you end up with some off the wall stuff. The .47 of a tooth difference actually advances the ignition timing on cylinder 2&5 by 7.3 degrees. I was running about 18 degrees of timing at full boost on pump fuel(15 psi), but on 2&5 I wound up with 25 degrees... Not so good.

And that is what roasted two engines. Figured it out on round three, and have since put 5K HARD miles on the car with ZERO issues.

[gixxer750]

Another post for this info. This time around I deleted the distributor base completely by welding a TT cam sensor bung on the head, going with crower 272 cams, using a TT crank sensor in a TT pump. I blocked the distributor hole off altogether, as there is no longer even a drive gear on the cam to run it.

The above videos were made running 13.7 psi on pump gas with ONLY 13 degrees of timing at full boost. As you can tell, the car runs pretty hard. It was also on cheap cheap sumitomo street tires.

[noah89t]

glad you're back. i don't have sid's number, but i think thomas or jeff might.

[hottscennessey]

Glad you have it running well.

I know you're pissed about the AEM timing multipler. WTF. What a shitty way to lose 2 motors. Don't be discouraged. With octane, this motor likes a lot of timing to make power. Go hop on the dyno :).

[gixxer750]

yeah, pissed me off pretty good...

The guy on the phone at aem was like...

"well, you should have checked that first"

WTF? Thats not a number that you "tune" it doesn't change... lol. Assholes.

a few pics taken by a friend at scrapin the coast 09 with an actual real camera, not a POS like mine. For those of you that don't know, that is the biggest car show in the south with 6000+ people in attendance, and often 1000+ cars. I won first place in toyota class for those that care.

Sorry all the pictures have girls in them, I'm soon to get a professional shoot done by another friend.
