My BPU'd 1jz swap/build thread....

[rakkasan]

I guess you received the engine and trans :biglaugh:

Nope, no trans!:icon_razz

Sure did, and the only thing damaged was an I/C line (which I don't need, so no sweat off my nuts). Thanks Aaron!

awesome mark, great start to another great engine by you. cant wait to see this one finished, def. keep us updated

I pulled everything off to put it on, and it's a pain in the ass. I'm bead blasting the charge pipes today to make them look new again, so I should have them back on tonight



I'm glad I decided to before I put the motor in, because I can't see how it can be done after the swap is completed....



So you're the one that bought it! What's it like, how is it?

holy crap, i guess I should just pull the motor

 

[OneJoeZee]

It would be easier

could have gotten a 2jz

 

[rakkasan]

could have gotten a 2jz

True, but it's more of a wiring nightmare, and I'll have enough trouble with this swap. Besides, if I ever have any problems with this motor, I'll do the 1.5jz...

 

[mattjk]

If and when my 1jz dies, I'll put a 2jz in there with 1jz electronics.

[Reign_Maker]

Well ALLLL RIGHT! Good job man... You know something sad? You'll probably be done before me... AGAIN...

 

[hottscennessey]

Cool Scott, 10psi isn't even starting to turn the compressor much. Tickle it to 23psi & it should open up quite a bit....

I can't wait to see what your numbers will be, so hurry up! :biglaugh:

Got a good tune tonight, feels MUCH faster Now its starting to catch up to my SP. More boost to come soon. I'll let you know

 

[rakkasan]

Since I'm putting the A/C back in the car, I had to move my intercooler. I'm going to mount it directly to the fram rails. I took it to a friends shop, and we made brackets to be welded onto the sides, but he ran out of Argon. :icon_conf Oh well, it will be done Monday.

I did get the tach installed & the Koyo radiator & hydro fan mocked up....
