You could try pulling a little bit of IGN timing via the CAS. That worked for me with one of my old MAP 4agze's, it flew passed 5500 and went better than ever (butt dyno).

Other than that, you could try source a new knock sensor, I don't think they can be bought new anymore though.

It's not the ...

Just say that Leon from Toyspeed gave you his number.

He's been working on my 20v for the last 13 years

Jesus that's close to 140,000 hours of labour!

I stand corrected! You know what they say about assumptions...

I was thinking about this recently since I'm parting out my AE92 GTZ and thought about keeping it and putting a cheap 4age and C series for autocross etc.

I have some ae82 hubs though, I should compare them and see.

Don't forget the hubs due to larger shafts.

I really like the Mark X 350S, totally want one. If I sold my Chaser I'd be looking at that. I wonder if they can be privately imported?

Useful post is useful

You can start with an SR20 though, and work up - getting to the SR point in the first place is going to cost a lot less

That is true, I originally took this as starting with an SR20 then swapping to the 1JZ, but I now see you must have meant SR20DET > SR20VET.

I wonder how much a decent build ...

I potentially know of a cheap SR20VE if you want to tread that path...

fck, why do you have to go say something like that?! ...still the cost of machining and building etc versus a stock VVTI 1JZ...

Yep could start with an SR20DET but plan on it being road legal, and the body is factory CA18DET ...

Yep there is always the debate for keeping it within the family, but it doesn't worry me, I'm just choosing an engine I like and putting it into a good chassis.

It was going to be an FD3S with 1JZ but I soon found that there wouldn't be enough headroom with a helmet, which was an unfortunate deal ...

Impressive stuff! Does he not want to move to an external wastegate?

I have my mind set on a 1JZGTE VVTi engine for my S13, but the SR20 is still hanging in there as a possibility. Especially with these numbers.

Cheers mate but I went with a T3 flanged TD05 (this is an old thread, revived by spam bot selling...something... indecipherable)

EDIT: I see the spam was deleted...so that could be confusing.

Lol, maybe! We have had a HEAP of issues with the internal wastegate actuator on my mates SR20 one though, one of the reasons I didn't have much issue with recommending an externally gated one for your 4AGE as the turbo itself has been a weapon - its hit around 300kw on E85 with it WANTING to run ...

Lol that dude is all about the Xanax. You have the Kinugawa on two of your cars now? How is it on the diesel?

Yep, the same Kinugawa turbo on both, there is a huge thread about these on one of the Australian Patrol/Safari forums. There are variations of people using the 6cm and 8cm exhaust ...

I have not heard of that turbo, thanks for the suggestion. I went with a TD05 16G, but a XANAXASSDSCXXXCHINAAPHETIMINE could be an option too perhaps?

Still sitting at 3:2 - Toyota:Nissan though.

This post is worthless without pics of said Nissan. And the megatron rear wing

Mega wing is removed and is no longer effecting local weather.

Who wants to see a photo of a rough 25 year old Nissan anyway

I bought another Nissan

Still sitting at 3:2 - Toyota:Nissan though.

Just some 'heavy duty' bearings right? Maybe a bit of JB Weld to smooth it out a bit

Found spare crank while fishing:

I'd really like to know what happens here.

You're obviously not worried then

Do you mean no full insurance or no insurance at all?

If not even 3rd party, aren't you worried about having an accident and hitting a $200k car rendering you financially crippled? I mean, you may be the best driver in the world but if a wayward kidlet runs out in front of you, forcing you to ...
