ROVdriver Posted November 19, 2011 Author Share Posted November 19, 2011 Have been alot at work recently, so there havent been much progress... I am just finishing the R230 install, had to modify the MM kit to make it fit properly. Have assembled the driveshaft and the cv-joints, and they fitted very well. I installed 280z stub-axels from MM to match up the rest... They took a while to get..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROVdriver Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Have started wiring up a new 18 circuit harness from Painless. The new fusebox will be located behind the glovecompartment door, together with ecu and relays. Installed the Speedhut gauges in the dash too.

ROVdriver Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Nice car. These engines sound sweet with an uncorked exhaust...and last forever, at least in stock form. So says my 251k mile SC400 that burns pretty much no oil. Love the look of your 510. Will try to find me an 510 as next project.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra510 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Love the look of your 510. Will try to find me an 510 as next project.... Thanks, Toyota powered, like this one.... Can you find 510's in Europe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROVdriver Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 Thanks, Toyota powered, like this one.... Can you find 510's in Europe? Yes, the 4-door and wagons were common cars here in the days, but theres not many left.... They were named 1300, 1600 and 1800. But the 2-door was not sold in Norway, maybe further south in Europe. Think i have to find me a 2-door from US, and ship over to Norway. My Z is also a US car, the previous owner is Rayapp here at the forum:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROVdriver Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 It's alive!! After a couple of weeks working on wiring the whole car, we had the first startup a couple of days ago. Just some tidying up in the wiring mess now, and fix some fuel leaks... Then I will install fenders and front and start testing/mapping. The sound of the engine with all trottles fully open is AMAZING! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Dude, video! I was having more thoughts on going 1UZ in my 240Z yesterday! I'll have to re-review this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayaapp2 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Man this car has come a long way since it was on the top rack over at San Benito Auto Wreckers oh so many years ago. Good progress! Definately get us some videos please. Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUNNY Z Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 ITB's look cool, but won't your IAT's be through the roof? Or are you just not worried about that. Super clean car. Neat to see something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROVdriver Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 I will make up a plenum with cold air intake in front, but not just yet. Have to get many other things in place first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xale Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 When you "joined" UZ and the r154 did you use a full bell housing like this " http://www.ebay.com/itm/1uz-1uzfe-toyota-Bellhousing-R150-R151-R154-gearbox-/280979269056?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item416bab65c0&vxp=mtr " or did you use an adapter plate? I am collecting parts for this swap now !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihiryu Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Sweet! 1UZ's are crazy reliable. My SC400 has over 300K on the clock now, and doesn't burn a lick of oil. I just recently supercharged it too using the Lextreme "Fish" bracket. What are you using for engine management? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
