What motor mounts do you plan to use?

for 4K, get a built 4L80E with a brake

That guy from Russia used the stock ones, so either that or build new ones.

I will install the R154 for now, but will sell it later and install the 350z tranny.

This project may go crazy big. Found a rebuilt short block for cheap among other things.

The stock 2J ones? Interesting. Do you have a link to that?

Also, what driveshaft are you going to be pairing up with the R154 and Z33 rear end?

I got more info on using the stock z33 trans. When I get on my computer I will copy the email. Pain to do it on my phone.

It will be a custom drive shaft.

I'm gonna contact sound performance and see if they are willing to make me a PNP Proefi 48 kit for my 2JZGTE VVTI engine.

New and hopefully last plan:

I bought a non vvti head and ECU and will replace the vvti head.
I found a Garret GT42 Turbo for $800 and a genuine aftermarket exhaust manifold for only $200. Both used but in a good condition.

Also, will get ARP head studs, head gasket, cam gears and timing belt.
Will post pics later.

Jealous, and sub'd. Good luck man!

I picked up the turbo exhaust manifold and HG yesterday. The manifold turned out to be a Godspeed

It will do the job just fine hopefully.

I just bought a polished head that has HKS 272 cams and AEM can gears for $800. Woho

Looking good!

Quick question about the header. Doesn't having the waste gate tubes merge defeat the purpose of the twin scroll?

midz350

iTrader: (4)

I think its just divided not twin scroll.

Found a used but clean Garret T76 I might buy if still available.

Also thinking about a Haltech P2000 since I already familier with it.

Small update:

Just bought a used OS Giken triple and waiting for a quote on a new PT6766 turbo.

Also will receive the HKS 280 cams, head gasket and AEM can gears tomorrow. Apparently there is something wrong with the head so I just bought the parts and will get another head.

This build is no longer on a budget. lol

That's gonna be a pretty aggressive idle with those cams. You'll need to upgrade the valvetrain to properly run those if I'm not mistaken.

And usually do builds rarely stay on budget. lol

yes but turbo with lower comp ratio and the internals on that motor can hold around 1000hp, the N/a version of the 2jz (2jzge) can hold right around 8-900ish hp also can hold at a max around 35 psi on e85 on stock internals unless you have and 03 and up vvti then it has weaker rods..... also doing a similar swap shooting for around 800hp.... idk if your going to be able to do it and stay in budget but best of luck to ya !! 2jz> everything else but i still love my vq lol

ilovemy"Z"

haha damn man me and you are going to be running the same exact set up and the idles not to bad with the 280s i mean its not stock by anymeans but its not bad on drivability, but you do need to do springs and retainers, if you have any questions on the 2j just pm my my brain has been loaded with countless 2jz info from the day i drew up my swap

ilovemy"Z"

from my experience your going to have a tight fit with a tubular mani like that but if you can make it fit put some reinforcing tabs from the head to the turbo otherwise the godspeed mani will crack, i went with a cast turbo mani from godspeed for clearance reasons

and look at the reinforcement rod on this mani http://rdfabs.com/pageimages/TurboManifold_NeonSTR4.JPG
it will give you an idea of what im talking about

also get your front main seal studded to the housing and weld on larger breather bungs onto the valve covers with a oil catch can because the 2jz is known for hi crank case pressure and it WILL blow out your front main in no time sorry for all the post im just trying to save you some hassle

Also run the oil feed for your turbo from the top of the oil tree, sandwich off of the long *** bolt that bolts the oil tree on and run a -4an line to your turbo, yes im aware the turbo and the oil tree are on opposite sides but that has the best oil pressure to prevent starving your turbo from oil, the stock oil outlets are kind of a mid pressure so lots of times they end up starving it for oil and you loose your turbo so just block off the stock ones
ohhh and run a -10an for the dump from the turbo back to the pan\

lemme know if you have any questions
