    turbo sizing question...because i have NFI

    It looks like the gt2871r would be a better choice. Reguardless of horsepower, at anything over 2.5 pressure ratio on the gt2860rs you are almost off the map, which is only about 23 psi. The gt2871r looks like it would put you right in the best efficency island for the power output it's...

    Got a jza70 diff

    We have seen a whole lot of jza70's but we have never seen anything but a 4.10 torsen come with them. Maybe they were only sold in certain markets? I can see how JDM cars would not want a lsd because of the ice and snow.

    Somebody get me some 7-up and soda crackers quick! :biglaugh: At least those interiors are in nice shape, so that's a plus. :dunno: Blue is nice, grey is nice, brown is even ok, but burgundy...not so much.

    Got a jza70 diff

    That's funny, my 4x4 toyota truck had 4.56 gears.......with the factory 31" tire option though :biglaugh: 4.56 is a little too low for a street car, 1st gear will be almost useless, and 5th will be more like 4th. The cool thing is when you finally get the 26" dubs installed it will be just right!

    Repair Shop BS-O-Meter

    $375 would be enough to buy all the pipes and most of the hoses on a 7m brand new from Toyota. If it's the metal coolant pipe that wraps around the back of the block then that is tough to change with the engine in the car but he cost of the pipe itself is no where near $375.

    turbo sizing question...because i have NFI

    500 on pump gas might be pushing it, you are going to need over 20psi and that is where it gets a little iffy on pump gas, at least on 91 octane...

    enjoying last few days of sun (56k warning)

    I was scrolling down the pics and I was thinking: NICE clean sweet nice exterior trim cool burgundy :barf: :biglaugh: I'm sorry but every time I see burgundy interior I get flashbacks of my first car, a 79 Ford Fairmont that had the same color interior and matching vinyl top! I...

    Coilpack relocation done

    The hose goes to the isc :icon_wink Actually it will go to the isc but I ran out of time to get it done before Vegas and I put it back temporarily. And I'm sure you are not totally stupid. LOL

    Coilpack relocation done

    You still need the isc, but it does not have to pull in metered air like on the stock afm. The engine will not even run when it is cold without the isc, unless you have the throttle open all the time which will make your warm idle way too fast.

    The 1j block is just as stout as a 2j! :biglaugh: :icon_razz

    Back from Vegas

    Cool! We did the install, but the custom body modifications I can't take credit for :biglaugh: He really has enough power for "delivered in 30 minutes or it's free"!

    1JZ with a Ct26!?!

    And don't forget, the Boss turbos from Supra Sport with this manifold could bolt right up to a 1j! I was looking at their Boss turbos in Vegas and they are very high quality!

    BJ's Strip Supra Build

    Your project is coming along, keep up the good work! Not sure exactly how many circuits you will end up with but if you have more then you need it will be ok, and you may do future upgrades and need more. 12 sounds like it would be enough, but if 18 is not a lot more money then maybe go with...
