BigZavs T56 swap/Finishing my 1.5JZ project

[Bigzavs]

the airbag is still there, but the car is 86.5, so there no way i could use it

 

[Bigzavs]

a buddy of mine wants to go single turbo, so im selling him my zoonwen manifold and 46mm wastegate. my 76 is also up for sale now as ive decided on a more unique setup for the car. as to what that is, you guys will have to wait a lil while to see it.

Oooh exciting

On the T56, what was the reason for switching adapters/bellhousings?

 

[Bigzavs]

it pushed the t56 too far back, the trans was hitting the two mount points for the trans crossmember. that setup was actually designed for MKIV/SC300 chassis, and hadnt been tested on a MKIII fitment wise. so it was hit or miss when i bought it

Good to know. I have been pondering swapping a T56 as well at some point. Probably not for a while though, need to finish the rest of the car.

I see the QuickTime bellhousing is listed for sale now:

lol, you already know what the new setup is

 

[Dylan JZ]

that is true, but it doesn't have the same impact as seeing it complete, or in pieces for that matter.

 

[Bigzavs]

Well a quick rundown of some of the new setup (some is tentative)

Swapping to a 2J head w/HKS 272's/Springs/P&P
Swapping out the AEM V1 for Vipec V88

Turbo setup is not 100% decided on yet.

Tentative stuff
RC 1600cc's
dual Bosch 044's
sumped tank

Did our facebook convo have anything to do with the 2J head decision lol

 

[Bigzavs]

ya, it kinda pushed me over the edge, i had been debating it for a while

also, did you get my messages about the turbo?

 

[BJ91T]

yeah I am working overtime lol Gotta try to get some money together
