I'm sure you could get in contact with most reputable mani fabricators and request a vband flange. I like the idea of the twin scroll. And my ebay mani. Lol.

Ok thanks
Also are you running a stock sway bar or can i use a thicker bar with the spacers
and do the spacers affect handling in any way?

For you guys running stock twins still-

Are you still using the stock BOV setup, or have you blocked off the stock BOV ports and used your own aftermarket BOV or what? I have an HKS ssqv sitting in my cabinet in the shop, and have been debating back and forth whether to run stock until I go single turbo, or block it and run the hks on my IC piping....

i'm running the stock BOV, although my car isnt running yet, so i cant tell you how well it works or how loud it is. i did alot of research, and alot of Supra guys actually even prefer to run it up to around 20 PSI.

makes it alot easier and cheaper to run it also.

GAWD I want that bumper. I'm also liking how the top vents are cut out, I've never seen it done before but it looks nice.
Looks like you also have air conditioning still?

JDM 2JZ-GTE
R154 from a Soarer
Custom brackets with toyota motor mounts
Rebuilt engine
ARP head studs
ACL bearings
Turbo Manifold from Thailand
Precision 6266 JB turbo
Precision 46mm WasteGate
Sard 650cc injectors
Apexi Power FC Standalone
Apexi AVCR Boost controler
ACT Extreme clutch
240sx Koyo Radiator customised by me to fit
Evo 9 Brembo Brakes

Below are some pics of the car:

With any of the swap kits, is there any tunnel bashing or firewall work? Or does it just slip in. I already have a W58 for the swap but im assuming the R154 would be about the same overall size.

You don't necessarily have to but I would recommend making some love taps around the starter area. Particularly where the top bolt would sit. You'll thank me if you ever need to replace one in the future.

Ahhhhhhh I can't wait to do this !! lol I miss my s14 , so much info for this . As for my 350, not so much but I guess when I do start this I will be sure to document every move I make as far as wiring , and all around info on what you need . I will definitely be doing this on a budget as much as I can , but we all know how that ends up lol.

Also is anyone running the 350z 6 speed trans with their swap at all? I'm still up in the air if it's worth it considering the amount of money it takes to make it work and the semi limited clutch flywheel combos I've been seeing .

Does anyone else run a soarer r154 like this:
https://webspace.utexas.edu/rwp248/14xis8.jpg

This is what came with my 1j, it sits pretty close to the center of the shifter hole, but anyways... It seems as though the bushings on the shift linkage/bracing are worn out or something because I have quiet a bit of play... Is this normal or what? This setup is so much different than all of the other r154's ive seen...



ALSO,

What downpipe is "best"? Ive seen people link this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/230910614544...84.m1423.l2649
Which looks really short,

and then the drift motion one:
http://store.driftmotion.com/static/...ttdownpipe.php

I was thinking just running one of these downpipes, and then fabbing my own crossover tube, and then connecting into isis 4 inch blast pipes...

I've got that style r154 and mine has some play as well but nothing drastically out of the norm.

I have one too. Mine is fine but, I saw a bushing kit for this type of shifter at driftmotion when I was looking for parts.

For those of you cutting/rewelding your throttle bodies to get rid of traction control, what are you doing with the coolant passage under the throttle body? Just cutting it and welding the outlets shut or what?

Check resistance in all of them and make sure their with in the same range of each other with an ohm meter . Or just pull the rail and prime it to see if their pulsing
