So as some of you know I recently parted out my SR in hopes of going with something more reliable and with much more power potential. So it was time to get rid of this paperweight and make space for something in an inline 6



Then I sold my beloved BBS's


And this is how she sat for a bit


Til I got these 17x9.5+15 / 18x9.5+15 MB Battles to roll on (not the greatest but they wuz cheap)


Stetched some rubber on em...



Then it was time to empty the bay and rip the front end off - here is where we stand now
\


Pulling as much as I can so we can get a nice coat of paint in the bay. Ill be picking up my 2j/R-154 this weekend and hopefully dropping her in to check fitment and decide if I am going to trim the radiator support for a bit more clearance. This isnt much of a build just yet (more of a demolition) so ill just throw in a few pics of the goodies that started rolling in this week.

Treadstone Cast Manifold


Precision 6266 .68a/r with 3-5/8" V-Band discharge


Xcessive engine & Trans Mounts


Tial MV-S, TRD Thermostat, and TRD Oil Filter


Complete 2JZGTE gasket set including water pump, idler pulley, tensioner, etc,!


So thats pretty much it for now. Ill be taking more pics as things come together... Until the next update

Didnt do much this weekend just picked up motor/trans and sent it to a buddys house for all new front seals/tensioner/timing belt/water pump/etc... Then she came home and I havent really done anything yet. I will be pulling off the stock twins this weekend and ordering some fuel components this week as well.
Pic of the shifter extension done by a local shop that S&O Teck (where I bought my engine/trans) sent it to be done...




More pics/updates coming soon

Hardparked...



-----------------------------------------

So I found some motivation and decided to tackle the twin turbo removal... boy what a pita... After removing those I put on the treadstone manifold and turbo for a little mockup






SO much more room with a single! Anyone thinking of doing this swap, do yourself a favor a ditch the twins. I pulled them off with the engine out of the car and it was a nightmare... I couldnt imaging doing this after the engine is in that tiny bay

Shout out to this can of AERO KROIL for without you those silly twins would still be stuck to my 2j



AERO KROIL > WD-40

Thats all I haz for now

how much did you extend the shifter and what tranny is that? R154?

BiG MiKE86

Ive tried PB before but this AeroKroil works better than anything ive ever used

A local shop did the extension for me. Yes it is a R154 - I can take a rough measurement of the plate that was added if that helps you

Thanks for the comments guys

Just ordered a Wiring specialties Harness + Patch harness from Yury

More progress pics next week

what kind of response are you expecting from the turbo, around what rpm you going to see full boost?

pacotaco345

KROIL FTMFW!!! I got my subframe off with that shizz. It's the business

Looking good bud! I'm excited to see how you have everything planned out. That turbo is gonna hit pretty hard, he should see 15-20psi around 3500

That manifold is what's gonna make some nice power early on that's for sure. Nice setup

Like Flicktitty said im guessing around 3500rpm which IMO would be pretty awesome for this sized turbo

Thanks - Im taking serious notes from your build thread

Fuel Injector Clinic 775cc High Impeadance Injectors + -6an Dual Feed fuel Rail ordered

I just need an R154 trans mount so I can do some test fitting now

Well I havent done much....

Installed Marlin Crawler Shifter bushings which took soooo much play outta the shifter. This is a must have upgrade for anyone who doesnt already have it.

Started installing driftmotion pulleys and Im currently working on finishing the stripping and painting of the engine bay

Here are some shots of the machining that had to be done on the turbo to fit the treadstone manifold



Holes slotted to slide turbo over about 2-3mm

Original fitment




Had to go with Socket Head Cap Screws due to hex heads not fitting



2-bolt to V-band wastegate adapter installed

BiG MiKE86

Wastegate installed





Then this shows up today via Santa (UPS) fresh from Yury's (wiring specialties) workshop



Harness comes ready for the Dakota Digital Boxes



Also picked up one of these so that my sweet ass harness stays uncut and clean


Ive gotta say Im impressed with the quality of this harness... cant wait to install it and fire it up

Thanks Yury!
