Is there enough room to get 4" exhaust tubing in here? If so, how tight is it?

 

[4000GT]

No there isnt enough room to do it with movement safety space. Are you sure you need 4"?

 

[gte]

Having an exhaust larger then 3" would benefit me, but I don't "need" it. Ah well, we'll see what happens I guess, if worst comes to worst, I can run dual 2.5" pipes on each side and get the same volume

No worries, I will know better once everything is bolted up... will use verniers then...

 

[gte]

Please let me know, and if you could, a good shot of how it would look if you looked straight down the side of the motor (from the radiators point of view) to see what I'm working with ... I would greatly appreciate that!

Decided on the Link G2 ECU and have it in the garage ready to start the wiring

 

[gte]

I might check into that ECU

What made you decide on that ecu, and how does it compare to the Motec m48?

2UZ, FWIW, BoostLogic & Chris Johnson sell & run a 4" exhaust system for the MKIV Supra, so "if" the SC400 & the Supra share subframes, you should have enough room.

Hi,

I thought that too, BUT they don't have a turbo on each side or turbo runners and the downpipe occupying the same area ... and the motor mounts are different because they have to be fabricated, plus the steering rack assembly will be in the way on my drivers side, so I'm still concerned :boggled:

any updates?

 

[4000GT]

yeah got the bellhousing bolted up with a Tilton triple plate clutch and custom fly. Just waiting on some hardware... and gearbox mount and driveshaft to be made...

 

[drifty325i]

Looks like a tidy job mate well done! hopefully mine looks that good. Why did you go for a custom fly?

 

[gte]

Can you approximate the cost on the bell housing, tilton triple and custom flywheel?

I assume this is for a v160?

Had to go custom fly wheel and bellhousing as I am using the R154 box and 7.25 Tilton clutch (and hydrolic release bearing)

I think the V160 is one piece? Hence only can use adapter plates (x2). You may want to read further into that though...

Bellhousing was $650, flywheel and clutch was used for one race but supplied with new disks for $1300. New the fly is about $350, and the clutch can generally be had for $1500 ish second hand with new plates...

 

[4000GT]

Well slight update...
Got the custom bellhousing and flywheel and Tilton clutch and hydrolic release bearing. Probably a month its on the road I am guessing all going well...

Just got my bro to do some powdercoating for the sake of it... not looking too bad but heaps more cleaning and coating to go!

 

[drifty325i]

Do you think your bro could do some power coating for me? looks awesome mate, the red looks good

 

[drifty325i]

Looks awesome btw! i dont know why more people dont do it
