northwestsupra's 500hp build

[IJ.]

Should be fine that just looks like stiction nothing to stress over.

The starter has probably at least 100x your strength.

Why has the head been on/off again?

 

[northwestsupra]

3 years of sitting. no oil, raw metal surfaces, no engine movement for about 1 year. was afraid that i was going to have rusted cylinders, but it looks like the oil i squirted down the cylinders saved me probably. or maybe it was never going to happen, who knows. but i figure im leaving it apart until i have all the parts for it, im tired of being scared of this thing breaking. but thanks for for reassuring me its fine my mind can rest, but my wallet will probably be hurting soon

Has the head been assemled that long?

 

[northwestsupra]

yup

 

[IJ.]

NOT good for the valve springs I'd be checking seat pressures before running it.

 

[northwestsupra]

hmm ok ill do that gotta get the tool though dont have that lol

You might have one buried in the PileOcrap in front of the car

basically the time stamps for moving on the engine has been about every month i'd turn it over manually, did this for about 2 years, then i ended up moving out of the house into a dorm and didnt see the supra as much for about a year and didnt really turn it over so. its been assembled for 3 years but it was moved. just not much

haha actually thanks to adam, he has helped me clean my garage "thank you adam" lol, but he kinda owed me for all the work i've helped him with his car. we still have 1/2 of the garage to finish, ran outta garbage cans. lol we ended up with about 5 garbage cans full, and a recycle bin full.

haha i give up, im going to watch a movie on the "internet" since i know im good at that lol, so odd this has never happened to me before. ill just have to accept my failure "that i didnt do intentionally" and enjoy some dinner and a movie and think about what i have "not" done lol

 

[northwestsupra]

well good news everyone, i am keeping the supra, the threats of it being parted out have now gone away, money is availible and it sounds to me like a vipec v44 might be in my near future, talked to bob at drift office about possibly getting it shipped to me so i dont have to do a big drive out there to get it and i got the OK from him so it looks like i get to start working on the baby once again WOOOO so excited, just cant wait for the electrical lol so from my knowledge of parts still needed are.....
stand alone
45 degree IC pipe "welding will be later"
IAT sensor
MAP sensor "although i think i was told that v44 has a built in 2.5 bar sensor or comes with one"
lots of 14G and 16G wire
------ things to do ----
wire up HKS EVC
wire up VIPEC
put engine back together
double check anything that might be missing or random holes for bolts forgotten on the side of engine.
install IC pipes / turbo
get exhaust system welded up and taken care of
get rear sub frame welded up
fix some broken wires i found.
get basemap for vipec
hook up basic electrical again "battery/starter/ect.."
get fluids
hopefully have fun

wish me luck and thanks to everyone who has been there and supported me. and as always donations to the build are always excepted every penny helps. "incase anyone is really willing to donate at all my paypal is trevorpollett@hotmail.com" and thanks again

Hell yeah Trevor, congrats on getting funding again (I take it you got a job?).

 

[northwestsupra]

no parents finally fell through lol. i wish it was a job though, im looking so damn hard just nothing is available. but i keep trying and dont give up. i just wish that employers would at least call back and tell you why they didnt pick you lol. make my life easier to know what to fix/change. but i started looking at 7m ecu pinout and v44 pinout and already digitally labeling what pin is going where, noting down what needs to be newly ran then i'll go out to the garage and then start to cut wires and label them with name of item and pin number. trying to make my life easy. only question i have is that there is 3 tps pins on the ecu, and i need to know what is what.

vta....IDL....VC "this one says tps airflow meter" basically vipec is wanting a 5v+, signal, and ground.. also there is the CPS G with like a picture of a screw head next to it, g1, and g2.

Glad to hear the build is back on!!!

:boobies:

 

[honestabe]

LOL, cool.

 

[northwestsupra]

parts are being ordered as i type this, got a 45 degree IC pipe on its way, blow off valve adapter "stripped out my old one", have either an adapter or flange being made for or favorite ebay special manifold and my tial wastegate. and last but not least, this biggest toy of them all, the newest version of vipec with peak and hold option and 4 bar included map sensor and thanks to bob and me being the tuner i got 2 free hours on the dyno "which i may never use"

 

[northwestsupra]

and a present to all UPDATE PICTURES!! got my manifold back from my friend, and my tial now mounts up perfect to it. didnt get the picture of it mounted, but trust me it does.

i also got my bov adapter, still waiting on vipec and 45 degree IC pipe

 

[honestabe]

sexy! Hurry up and get your beast back on the road!
