Teamslow's 7m SuperStreet Build

[teamslow]

The goal is to have a reliable street car.
My definition of a superstreet car is something that can be daily driven (though I probably won't drive it daily), runs on pump gas and no nitrous, and is environmentally friendly (the car should be able to pass emissions.) I like to breathe clean air :biglaugh:

I'm hoping for at least 400rwhp. I know the build is a bit overboard for the horsepower goals. But if I ever wanted to make my car a dyno queen, I probably would only have to change the turbo, fuel supporting mods, and go standalone.



I bought the longblock from Dave Consentino AKA joliroger4.

The block came with
.020 over tough skirt coated JE pistons
Genuine Crower Rods
Clevite bearings
1.5mm greddy head gasket
ARP head studs
Complete Ferrea valvetrain 1mm over
Ported and Polished head
Reground cams, with .010 more lift.
AEM Cam Gears
ARZ upgraded oil supply line
Oil Pump shimmed 3mm
ATI Damper

This is picture of the pistons and rods that was taken by Dave before I bought the block.

The turbo I got is a 60-1 triple ball bearing Lipp boss jr. This should spool up to full boost rather quickly while still reaching my hp goal.

Picture of my OS Giken twin disk sprung Clutch.

I shipped out my transmission to Marlin Crawler. Should be getting it back sometime next week.
And I order my aluminum driveshaft today from shaftmasters.

I'll post more pictures of other things later.

not bad. i soon plan to full rebuild my 7mgte and get at least 400+ hp out of it. keep us updated on the build.

Soooo, what part of this 7M will be slow? The build thread only? LOL

 

[teamslow]

pulled the engine out

had a hard time trying to pull the engine harness from the compartment. So i disconnected the engine harness the hard way.

some parts before they were chrome.

picture after chroming

chroming was done by superchrome. I will be getting a few more things chrome in 2 weeks.

A few peices powder coated by a friend who has a small powder coating business.

there are alot of other pieces i had powdercoated, just haven't had a chance to take pictures.

Engine in its current state.

my favorite piece. The lipp spark plug gallery.

Everyone talks about how fast their car is. So I thought I'd show everyone how slow mine is.

Yea it's a slow build, lol. I only have time to work on my car on the weekends. Most of this stuff has been sitting around for a year. I'm trying to have my car running by august at latest.

The black powder coat looks good. Your idea for the car is also correct. I didn't get the 60-1, but the 57 because I am trying limiting myself to 350-375.

With the head work, you will make more power at lower boost levels. This should work out quite nicely for you. Well done.

 

[nerfkhat]

Nice valve covers! Mine are similar :icon_razz

Is that the CXRacing front bumper you got there?

It is a carbonfibrefx front bumper made by Duane Stephens.

 

[Supra28]

Haha, I was just about to say your car look like Duane's, but didn't think you knew who he was. Any more exterior pics?

 

[empera]

damn that looks good man.....u should def. come down to our meet again....

 

[rtrdpenguin]

Those pistons/rods are beautiful haha!

Yea. These pictures were taken awhile ago.

damn that looks good man.....u should def. come down to our meet again....

Thanks. I will once it's running.

installed my front whiteline sway bar today.

more stuff powdercoated

before

after

installed my new remanufactured rack and pinion

does anyone have a pic of their rack and pinion with the hoses and lines installed?

I also tried installing my driftmotion brake hoses. They don't seem to fit where the stock clips go. Anyone ever install these hoses on their car?

 

[Nghty89]

No idea on the hoses.

Very nice build! I just dyno'ed mine today, but it's pretty much stock. 241whp. Good luck!

 

[gonzy tunning]

looking good man..do they still make the bumper

 

[teamslow]

looking good man..do they still make the bumper

Thanks. And no, I don't think so.

Finally got my transmission back from Marlin Crawler.
Looks like they replaced every single nut and bolt.

The OS Giken push pull converter is installed.
Thanks for the help Empera! :icon_bigg

One of the ribbs were grinded on the bellhousing to have the kit fit. Maybe the kit was for a 1JZ.
But its says "1JGTE 7MGTE push pull converter" on my receipt from RHDJapan.

Does anyone know how the slave is suppose to be connected to the push pull kit?
How does the slave cylinder look on a 1jz? Is it the same for the 7m?

 

[supra1008]

Yea its the same as the 7m/r154. The w58's are different. I wanted to come down with julio to check your car out and help out if needed but i was volunteered to help some idiot tow a z32/na with a bhg that he just bought.

 

[87mk111]

Nice car/build. :love:
