MrOizo's JZA70 - 2JZGTE and V160!!

Haha cheers.

V160 wasnt too hard to fit. As noted from http://turbosupras.com/pages/pages/t...onversion.htm:

Firstly, the left hand side gearbox tunnel mount point needs to be hit with an engineering stick (hammer) mid way up, this is due to the R154 being larger on 1 side, thus the tunnel is not centred down the middle of the car.

The second spot is on the right hand side, around 36mm (1.5") in front of shifter hole, a firm hit with the engineer's stick will be plenty.

Not too hard but took a bit of putting the engine in and out. Only modification to the tunnel apart from making those two sections slightly bigger was moving the shifter hole about a inch to the rear of the tunnel - nothing major at all!

Oh, did you have to modify the trans tunnel or anything else on the car to make the v160 fit?

This build is awesome!

What are you running for a rear end?

This was originally a JZA70 auto so had the 3.7 torsen LSD.

I should add the dyno video. Will do once I have better signal on my phone.

While I replying I should thank Ronnie (RK Bush guy) for supplying and helping me remove the old bushes from the upper aluminium A arms.

How does it feel behind the getrag? I've got a 3.7 behind my r154 with a 1J but it makes the car a bit sluggish off the mark and out of corners. You prob dont have that issue with the 3L

Nice build thred, and nice info on the v160 mod to fit our cars, I'm now considering this swap, the v160 was holding me back (that and the cost of it lol), so I'm gonn astart researching this swap and the cost of it a little more.

I haven't really noticed a problem with the 3.7 - mainly because I haven't really got anything to compare it to.

If I had to fault something, it would be first hear being too short. It's not major but not as bad as most have said it would be:
"it will be a stump puller man"
Mainly from some one who read it from some one who heard it from somewhere who thought it wouldn't work.

I have had a bit of reworking going on for the fuel pump and have got a kit to sense any voltage on the FPC wire to switch a relay. This is to do away with the FP ECU and only having one speed on the Bosch 044

I have been trying to test it but i am getting no voltage from this wire. Everywhere i have read says this should put out a 3-5v signal.

When the key is turned to ON (or Start), i should have 5v and then 0v after a few seconds if the engine hasnt started yet. I have 0v all the time.

Is there something that i might have forgotten to plug in to not have any voltage on this wire? Hmmmmm

--------------------------

I should have added that i have no FP ECU which is the whole reason for coming up for a solution for no FP ECU.

I have a simple Jaycar kit which detects a pulsed frequency and turns a relay on.

I had a play today and have taken these photos:

IGN OFF, connected to Earth and FPC from ECU

IGN ON, connected to Earth and FPC from ECU

IGN OFF, connected to 12vand FPC from ECU

IGN ON, connected to 12vand FPC from ECU

Any suggestions as to whats going on here? I am starting to think its the ECU...

WOW - after getting a bit of motivation from looking at a few friends cars i have managed to get the intake side along with some 750cc injectors and dual entry rail from Fuel Injector Clinic installed.

I am feeling pretty pleased with what i got done today. Pics are in reverse order

Other things i have done since last posting is installed resistors to increase inpedence to suit the JDM ECU. The plan is to get this running with the t04z for now and once im happy with it, go stand along ECU. It will most likely be the Link G4 Extreme here in NZ or to you US based peoples, the Vipec V88.
