Project Blue - From KA-T to 1JZ
I figure I share my latest project my 95 240sx with a 1JZ.. so lets start from the beginning shall we?
Here is how the car looked when I first got it A little rough on the outside, but the interior was flawless, that's all I really cared about Car was already turbo and it had a bunch of great parts, AEM V2, Precision 6262, custom long tube manifold etc, engine had a lose timing belt chain and needed a tune so off she went to the shop After debating what to do (fix current motor or build a new one) I decided to go ahead and build a new KA24DE, wanted to see what I could do w/it so off the car and to the machine shop Full rebuild .20 CP pistons / Eagle Rods / 264 Cams the works.. While the engine was out I figured it would be a good time to paint the car Very happy with the final product, electron blue Also got new wheels in the process and coilovers After breaking in was completed, off to the dyno she went http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoi2GZpVMbY 440rwhp @ 21PSI on 93 octane Car was a blast on the street Last edited by 94Silver; 07-05-2013 at 08:08 PM.. |

So after enjoying the car for a few months, a friend of mine decided that he wanted my KA-t so I traded him for his 1JZ.
Removing the motor And is out Last time I didn't get a chance to paint the engine bay, so I figured since is out again lets paint it to match the rest of the car Much better! Time to tear into the 1JZ, stripped down to check bearings / rings and paint Looking good, time to put the head / new headgasket on Also I wanted a little extra BLING with this second build so I send out all the parts to be polished At this point I was debating if I should build my R154 or buy one already done, after some searching I found this awesome R154 in the forums so I bought it All new Marlin Crawler parts and looking fresh.. Time to assemble the engine Half way there New engine / transmission brakets Motor semi-finish Time to go in the car for a test fit Like a GLOVE! Still lots left to do Wiring / clutch / new brake lines etc hopefully 2 more weeks before she is on the road again, I will update the thread with more pics as I get them. |

Finished putting the motor together with all of the accessories / belts
Welding the heater outlets Is all about the details.. I hated the way the stock lines just ran through the front of the firewall so we hide them and ran braided lines instead Ran new fuel lines on the correct side.. -8 for feed -6 for return My friend is excited, almost done to get her started! So haven't updated the thread in a while.. car is done (for the most part still gotta do AC) but she was out at the US Drift event this weekend, some pics from the progress We decided to take the dash apart so we could relocate that ugly fuse box the engine bay as it sits today Top shot (crappy camera) getting some attention at the US Drift event Took the "best wild nissan" award at the show Should have some video / better pics soon. |

Looks good
Brake lines are cool, I debated something of that sort. Ultimately ran hard lines thru the firewall. Keep it up
