1jz into 95 240sx

[bigdaddygrip]

This is my third try on my 1jzgte 95 240sx build. I started out with a kit from tech2swap. The swap couldnt be more stragiht forward and user friendly. What I have had a problem has been the 1jzgte motor it self. I have had two engines which with problems. Engine #1 spun a rod bearing, Engine #2 crankwalk. I got both motors from reputable companies. I will be getting my motor this week and start on the build before the warranty expires.

From what I have read, heavy duty cltuches can cause crank walk on the JZ engines.

I got an ACT Extreme clutch and pressure plate. I am going to send it back to act to get it check out, and I will be putting a new oil pump on this engine. I will get this flywheel check out also. I am not going through this again.

I know from experience.

Get a twin disk.

It's been documented that heavy pressure plates do make the jz motors crankwalk, They hurt the thrust bearings.......

should I go with a stock presure plate and my 6 puck clutch? Would that be enough to hold 400 ftlb ?

 

[bigdaddygrip]

What about the clutch interlock mod? Will that help, since the problem seem the cause is the pressure on the crank at startup with no oil pressure.

Yes that would be enough, I had a HPF 6 puck bronze clutch with stock pressure plate & it held over 400ftlb, I had that set-up in my MKIII & remember there heavy compared to the 240sx.

YES!
I've done 4 1jz 240 to date. It's fun as hell and you don't need anything more than a stock PP and 6puck clutch. You can make 445rwtq and laugh to the bank. I am making that on my 3800lbs+ SC300 and no slip at all.

Totally true, My heavy ass MKIII with that set-up never slipped..

Sorry to bump a 1 month old thread but just got to thank everybody for this great clutch setup info since i'll be going that route in my s13.

But was curious if you guys figured out if you can avoid buying the tech2 crossmember and just "improvise" on the stock s13/14 crossmember. Since rumor has it that you dont have to buy that piece and use stock 87-92 mk3 engine mounts.

I am using the tech 2 kit
