Plan on it, thanks!

Got some more stuff in.

Driftmotion Thermal Intake Gasket to drop air intake temps.

Driftmotion Pulley set, which I had to buy since I upgraded to a 2JZ water pump.

New Accessory belt for no A/C, God this was easy to put on compared to VG's, lol.

New Action 6 puck clutch.

New OEM Pressure Plate, pilot bearing, and and clutch bearing.

Installed new belt and pulleys.

Then I cleaned and masked off the upper intake manifold for paint.

Primed.

With two coats, gonna do a couple more tonight.

And also gonna install new valve cover gaskets and bolts.

I love where this build is going!

UNITEDMASTER · 02-23-2011, 05:07 PM

Are you gonna run a heater,if not delete the hard line on the water pump. Otherwise its lookin real good,carry on!!!!

NismoTuner21 · 02-23-2011, 05:09 PM

Nope I'm not ^^

I'm gonna cut the nipple and weld it shut on the hard line, then the nipple from the block I'm gonna plug up. Do you know if that's gonna stop any flow?

UNITEDMASTER · 02-23-2011, 07:50 PM

I usually make a block off plate at the waterpump.Flow is fine.

Depending on how you have your radiator set up you can put a -4 fiting on block off plate ,and run a line to your fill pot.

Or just cap it & have a handy block drain!!! & it can be helpfull when bleeding the cooling sys.

NismoTuner21 · 02-23-2011, 10:44 PM

Yeah but doesn't that tube feed the oil tree for cooling? Or do you run the hose that originally went to from the oil tree to the tube from the oil tree to the nipple on the block for the heater core?

inferno s14 · 02-23-2011, 11:22 PM

Respect!..your z is gonna be fire kid straight up no doubt..keep it up.

Ditch the OEM style cooler. Order a oil cooler sandwich plate kit for a ford 8 cyl from Summit racing & go external cooler

NismoTuner21 · 03-10-2011, 09:14 AM

Sooo I finally did some real work. Yanked all of the shit out from under the dash in preparation of cutting the firewall, and also stripped the bay of everything I won't need except the clutch line. I have almost every piece I need for the engine/trans. From here on is where the fabbing begins. I plan on backing the motor up about 4-4.5 inches from it's current position. From there, I'll get the driveshaft made, then the I/C and rad setup done as well. Then wire everything up and slide :driving:

Pics:

New valve cover gaskets and bolts.

Starter and more shit installed.

Peep my sweet paint job, cause I'm a ricer.

Cleaned up the fuel rail and installed new seals.

IACV

SOME of the shit that was removed...

But a lot was yet to be removed.

In the process of stripping under the dash, there was soooo much shit... lol

After that I started working on the bay again.

Almost everything was out in this pic

Then I put the motor in just to get some measurements and see the fit. I will be able to keep my windshield wipers and brake booster!! w0000! Now I just have to figure out what I'm gonna do with the downpipe

For the lulz

Rockogtr · 03-10-2011, 11:33 AM

Z32TT-R · 03-10-2011, 12:19 PM

Lookin good Sal, get er done!

K_style · 03-10-2011, 12:24 PM

Looking good !!!

Can't wait for outcome..

harangatang · 03-14-2011, 11:35 AM

Finally, I see someone appreciating the awesome-ness of 1J's

Your turbo setup is pretty close to what I'd like to do... just wish someone made a TS housing for the PT5857... cause the 62+'s are way more hp than I'm looking for lol.
Motor looks really nice after your clean up! GL with the build buddy. Can't wait to hear this beast running.

4DOOR_LIFE · 03-14-2011, 11:39 AM

Definitely keeping my eye on this build. good stuff so far man, can't wait to see vids of this bad boy running.

kraven9 · 03-14-2011, 11:47 AM

Nice build. It looks good so far.

NismoTuner21 · 03-14-2011, 06:08 PM

Thanks guys! I can't wait to see it running/crashing into shit either!!!

Looks like I'm not gonna be doing firewall modifications due to FD rules

Trading a local dude for a front sump oil pan sometime this week. HOPING to get the motor and all that mounted by this weekend

JDMtyteYO! · 05-01-2011, 05:02 PM

SAL!...please dont use that plastic plenum gasket...theres a reason why the stock one is metal!

trust me i made the same mistake and wasted 70 bucks or however much that DM one is...also.....im trying to work out a deal with chris who has my 1j fc

!!!!!! if i cant get the whole car he was talking about selling the motor swap but id rather have the whole car lol
glas to see this things coming along even tho your last post was a month ago (palm to face) i fail

NismoTuner21 · 05-04-2011, 10:41 PM

Coming along reallllll slow. Motor and tranny is now mounted with no firewall mods. Oil pan sits about .25" above the crossmember and shifter needs to be extended about six inches. Driveshaft and shifter extension will be done this week.

Hood has plenty of clearance, and I didn't even notch it!!

Stock pan

Modded pan to clear the cross member and sway bar. Lost a little more the half a quart of oil doing this, but I'm getting a huge oil cooler, lol.

Started stripping the rest of the interior for the cage. Dash is loose and all the A/C shit is gone.

Working on slimming the engine harness since I'm using the F-Con and won't need a lot of these BS sensors.

Got the oil feed line made with stainless fittings and teflon coated SS line, just need a
-10 fitting and some SS line for the return, and the turbo coolant lines as well. Intake side is all installed except for throttle body. Also, I plugged up all the useless water/heater core nipples.

That's it for now, more coming soon!!! F-Con jumper harness is on the way and I think I figured out what I wanna do for my gauge cluster setup.

deathrace2000 · 05-04-2011, 11:25 PM

This is a cool build.

NismoTuner21 · 05-05-2011, 02:02 PM

Thanks man, I wish it was moving faster

I was hoping to drive XDC on May 15th.. I'm definitely gonna drive RD.3 FD/SWD pro-am on July 3-4 though. Car goes in for the cage next week!!

irritatedmax · 05-07-2011, 11:10 PM

People always say Z32's are heavy. How light can you get them stripped and caged?
