Thats good to know...I plan on running one 75 amp relay, 10 or 14 gauge wire and a summit fan temp adjustable switch.. Just reconfirm what I'm thinking, do you remember how your wiring genius went about the charging system..adapting the 1jz altenator...

Cool thanks for the info..Im using one 4000 CFM ford Taurus fan with the stock radiator...Is your stock rad holding up?

IM having the same problem with my 260z...But im looking for the other fude box by the passenger kick panel.. i has more fuses than the one posted..anyone have a pic of that..

Posting here to help other like my self... Wiring I take it, i will have to put a water temp sensor on my radiator to control when eletric fan come on correct?

I agree!! mine fits perfect, even with full interior...just fip around the shifter to make the throw closer..bam done!!! Just a warning though i think my engine is a inch or two closer than timbo...might have to trim your console little...

A bit steep no? Gald im doing my own exhaust..awesome looking exhaust though!!!

Ok cool, im looking for a deep performance tone, with no rasp..just a smooth high performance sound...like the famous dewgo http://videos.streetfire.net/video/1jz-SC-exhaust-note_198860.htm

I got a N1 muffler and 3" resonator that should be here next week..i hope i can get a nice performance tone with that set up...

What gear is your diff? im looking for something thats 3.50 to 3.90.....4.00 and up, might make the car a little rough on the highway....some 240sx 1jz swap guys say first and second are useless with 4.11's

I don't plan to daily drive mine....

Well today my brother and i got my car up and running...and to my surprise the engine started the first try and ran pretty good...Im running an open down pipe right now..I still have to finish running all the wires neat for a clean install...Hell i didn't even have the o2 sensor pugged in, most of the vac lines are not hooked up..still ran fairly decent..im filling pretty good about the project now and where it's going..i just need more time to work on it.. In the coming weeks i need to finish the wiring and mount the ecu...have my drive shaft sent off, make a custom exhaust, weld up the custom intercooler pipes i made some time ago ( I'll take pics of them soon) Finish mounting the gas tank...and project s30 should be driveable..for under $4000... cost of car included i might add!!! So far that is....... Here is a crappy vid..enjoy...

wow really....

Cool, thanks for the quick answer!!! So now my plan is to run a 3" exhaust with a straight though muffler and resonator, the 1jz should sound awesome!!

I have a 1974 s30 with a build date of 7/74 so i guess a late 1974..do I have to run a converter..in my state you have to run what the car came with..im not sure if the 74 s30 had a catalytic converter from the factory...help..

Great job!!! making some crazy fast progress....Those are huge tires, will they fit stock fenders...how much do you plan on lowering the car?

Not to mention if it's tq that you like, the LS motor will make more and sooner...Plus the redline is around 6500rpm i believe..

Yeah my 88 starion with the 2.6lt 4 is a tq monster.. in stock trim it makes like 235tq @2300rpm..i never dynoed with mods i have but I'm sure I'm making around 300ft tq....Top end on those motors suck though...Its fun to dive daily cause i don't have to wined it hard to get up to speed..My z on the other had will be more of a street and strip car.. At what rpm does the 7m make max tq? I know it can vary a little..

Im still trying to figure why so many people cry for tq in a 2300lbs car...Maybe when i get done with my swap "the tq less wonder" i'll understand..

This weekend i hope to have her up and running...I still got to finish the fuel system and oil lines for the turbo...I think i might mount my ECU in pass kick panel..i might have to extend some wires, but thats ok..i plan to pull the dash and Rewire a lot of stuff..the previous owner did a lot of hacks and half a** wiring... Has anyone tried any of the ebay FPR on a 1jz? i have two im not using...

The sensors will be fine...trust me..

thanks, for the info....i'll search a little more...where did you mount your ecu?

Guys, need some help..I have a supra 1jzgte( i believe) my ecu and harness has 2 rows..the problem I'm having is the ecu pinout is not matching my harness on the 4th plug http://www.jzgte.com/images/tech/ jzecu_diagram.gif My harness 4th plug is missing a few wires , like (2) BATT, (3) M-REL..ETC My brother and I, manage to get spark and ignition and got the engine to hit..but were not sure why my fourth plug is missing the wires...We had to find the missing wires else where in the harness, and were not sure it's right... I was hoping i could just follow the pinout and hook up everything that need to be hooked up, and get rid of the other half of the harness(main plug) 1jz is going into a Nissan '74 260z..

Hold on, don't give up so easy...what are you power goals??? a 400hp v8 in a z would haul all types of a** The northstar can make that type of power faily easy right??

Has anyone ever found why exacly the 7m blows head gaskets??? Most turbo cars i worked on were fine after a decked block/head..arp head studs and felpro gasket...I wonder if a o-ring block would cure the 7m woes...anyway just asking..

Most the guys here will says it's not worth it..unless you get it cheap and can install it yourself..also the power goals you are trying to achieve have alot to do with it too..Is there anything wrong with your stocker??? In my case, for years i wanted to do a JZ or RB into a s30..so thats what I'm doing...forfilling my dream, whats yours?
