    I am running a Summit racing plastic 12 gallon tank with sump and foam. I am running a bosch 044 pump with stainless fuel lines.

    WOW! I looked at your album and your car is insane. You are an insane fabricator and your car is sweet!!

    Yah Gritz, you are right, I am doing exactly what you are talking about, and spending too much time and money doing my bushings, suspension,rear end, ect. when I should be concentrating on getting the thing running and drivable.

    Very good job Gritz! Its coming together nice and quick too. Yah, I had the same problem with the tranny crossmember getting in the way of the exhaust, so I made I new one kinda like the one that RUSS made. Mine is not the prettiest thing but it is strong, braced and works. It gives pleny of room for exhaust.

    yeah in the end, your car will be way more fun and unique then a 240sx that everybody seems to have these days.

    I loved my 1jz in my mk3 supra, and I can't imagine how fun its going to be in my new lighter, better handling z. Almost their!!
  7. timbo1jz
    I have never used one before, but I heard that they are insanely heavy! Probably pretty strong too.
  8. timbo1jz
    RUSS, you are the man! The 1jz VVT is so rare and has never been done before in a Z. People here in the us are kinda scared to toy with the vvt 1j's.

    I am still wayyyy over what I thought I would spend on my 1jz swap. Its the bunch of little things to make the swap work, that add up real fast. Always more than you think you will spend and I did all the work myself!!

    Yah, I will paint the valve cover after I get it running. I got a pic of the new shoes I got for the Z!

    my 1jz never ran hot when it was in my Mk3 Supra. I don't think it will be a problem in my z either, because their is even more airflow through the front of the car than their was on my z. I think as long as you have an upgraded radiator and a high cfm fan, then you should be fine.

    Hey guys, been busy on the project, got the downpipe done, mk4 supra waterpump with billet pulleys and shortened belt with s2000 idler pulley for no AC or PS. I got a new aluminum radiator installed with a 16" spal high CFM fan and all 5 ply silicone radiator hoses. All intercooler piping is done, but it just needs to be welded. Here are some pics.

    This is the clutch hose I used for my 1jz/r154 swap. I works perfectly and its cheap for a full length clutch hose. http://store.driftmotion.com/Static/Itemfulllengthclutchhose.php

    Hehehe! The intercooler is pretty big, but I ran this same setup in my Supra and the lag wasn't that bad at all. The motor is fully built 1jz.

    I am running the aluminum radiator in from the first post on this thread with a 16" spal high cfm electric fan. Quality is nice and fitment is perfect. We will see how it works when the car is done!
  16. timbo1jz
    good progress man! What kind of turbo are you going with?
  17. timbo1jz
    Getting close to done, but I don't have that many pics of the body. Got pics of the engine though!!!!
  18. timbo1jz
    Yeah I live in Hidden Hills (Calabasas). I used to go when I had my Supra, but since my Z is not quite finished yet, I haven't been for a while. I wanna see your z in person some time!
  19. timbo1jz
    very nice! Looks like I am going to have a little competition for the fastest Z in Calabasas now!!

    I finally got the tranny mount for the r154 done using the stock mount and a custom crossmember similar to RUSSJZ's to make room for the exhaust. The shifter is an inch or two foward, but will be perfect with the soarer shifter housing that I will install.

    I haven't posted in a little while due to some other things I had to take care of, but I am back on the project now. Got the 15/16" master cylinder/booster in and the custom braided stainless clutch hose installed onto the toyota r154 slave cylinder. Also picked up some sweet Recaro racing seats. here are a couple pics-

    I am going to be using a 1jz engine harness with a painless body harness for my 1jz swap. Not a 2jz but almost identical.
  23. timbo1jz
    Good job Grtiz! Nice to see that you are serious about the swap. 1jz is the only way to go!!
  24. timbo1jz
    yah, I am stressing on what rear end and gear ratio that I should run with my 1jz and a r154. I need to decide soon so I can get a driveshaft made ASAP. I have the r180 and their is no way that it will hold up.
  25. timbo1jz
    the problem is that I got this car with no turn signals, bumpers, grill, ect, so I have no idea.
