I have a cunning plan..... after struggling with my adapter plate for my T56 to 1UZ i found these two products: http://www.thegearbox.org/catalog/item/3838217/4803441.htm http://www.rodshop.com.au/bellhousingkits/index.htm (BH 106C Quad Cam V8 Toyota to GM Muncie, Saginaw...

um... exhaust is 2.5inch, i had thought a bit small perhaps but the WG re-enter so far down stream i thought it'd be fine oil is 3/4

U got a WBO2 sensor? do some scary road tuning, i strongly suggest not doing it by yourself tho.

Time for an update, turbo oil returns were mocked up and the engine was plucked out, engine in all its nakedness: PS bracket and modified fan pump housing: Next is the reverse alternator mount, will be a bit of a fiddle, especially the belt tension adjustment. the PS pump is...

Bump: i'm sure he's done some work on it he's not showing us...... :stups:

hey fella's Im keen on a gathering of V8s. mine is still in bits but hopefully will have it going in a month or so. ok to travel. nothing quite like a road trip, call it an extended tuning session.. Daniel.

Hey Chaps, I have an auto behind my 2JZGE in 90' Hilux surf/4runner. i have wired up the solenoids via some diodes to the selector switch and the trans is full manual shifting now. its very simple. u have ot shift the trans yourself, but then u dont have the ECU making bad gear choices for...

work progress update..... lotsa pics i reworked the LHS W/G merge and removed the flange as it was hitting the chassis rail. both sides pretty much done. one small niggle with the LHS, the W/G pipe touches one of the header pipes, needs to be remedied. am pretty happy otherwise, although the...

More header progress..... LHS all but complete: Will start on the RHS this weekend, should have it finished by the end of the week.

Hey guys, i downloaded this .dxf file ages ago form somewhere on this site. i e-mailed it to my local laser cutting dudes and hey presto: Ive attached it to my post. Ive really no idea where i found it. but it works pretty sweet. Daniel.

UPDATE: progress on manifold has been made. my work even paid me to work on them for a few hours, very nice of them, even if they were unaware of it. I made makeshift brackets to hold the turbo flanges in place while i fabricated the collector. left side collector and westgate mount...

Where has the time gone? to be honest i was busy preparing my hilux for an annual 4x4 trip. some progress has been made, mostly the wiring and ignition, manifold have not been finished due to the radiator taking so long to turn up as ididnt want to position turbos without the radiator having...

Toyota hilux boxes labelled as G52's were weaker than the W5* series boxes They appear to have the selector mechanisim on the opposite side to the W5* boxes. some of these G series boxes had a PTO on the side. a friend used to break alot of them with his P76 V8 which was 4.4" english pushrod...

Hey i think i can help here... 1Uz and megasquirt is a possible combination.. firstly 1UZ's have 3 VR sensor you can choose to use 1 or all three myself i am going ot use the crank wheel and take a tooth off it to create a 12-1 missing tooth system there are alot of MS users with the 3...

Update: Engine is back in the car after i had the pants off the engine to plumb the turbo oil return lines: I had the LHS side return foul the oil pump pickup, but after a small amount of machining its now has clearance: I chose army navy fittings for ease of installation and cos the...

Thats quite a nice balance you have there...

Thats a brilliant calculator! cheers.

Got the headers all in place, pipes welded to the flange and to each other. will refit the engine to the car before i set the turbo flanges in place with a collecter, just to be sure they are in the right place.... RHS LHS no more progress for a while, will be continuing my holiday...

PS pump is not a priority, at the worst i will use an MR2 electric PS pump. Yes, i am not concerned about these header's failing due to heat.

after a few days of getting out of bed at 10am cos im on holiday..... progress report left side headers mostly done right side done as much as i can with engine in the car... using tape to mock up bends.... left side header mostly done..... hope to have allot more done in the next few...
