Fries: so how did you fix your drivetrain issue? I'll be using the ka trans as well but when I spoke to 1uzswapkit, they said I could use a ka clutch mate it with a 3sgte pressure plate and flywheel but won't have full engagement of the clutch disc hub to input shaft. So just wondering how you did it? And what tob are you using and pilot bearing?
Anyone else with this set-up feel free to chime in as well. Thanks!! |

I was using a welded one this weekend but blew it up, I think it's a good ratio for the 1uz atleast for the track I'm driving on, I'm going to try and find another one or maybe even a 3.7 but I think that might be too low for a stock 1uz |

3sgte pressure plate and ka24de clutch disk works fine. I think he's right, it wont fully penetrate the disk, as in OEM depth, but it does engage plenty. It will work fine man, just get the right disk/and pressure plate hahaha

So I purchased the car and it was missing a whole block of fuses... I think.
Purchased a wiring specialties replacement lower harness. This is the alternator plug from fuse box plug->alt->fuse box. It goes on the that bolt and nut right? From the fuse box I have these two thick white/red wires which were soldered to these two red wires. Previously, this was hard connected straight to the battery. Which Im guessing is why there was no charge coming back from the alt. White/Red wire on the right goes to a 75a fuse, followed by running a thick power wire into the chassis harness around the front end, which im assuming is for the alternator fuse. The one on the left goes to power accessories throughout the fuse box. Should both of these wires be hard wired straight to battery or should I have them connected to that bolt/nut post that the alternator supplies power to? Sorry if this is confusing. I appreciate the help.

Oh and for anyone wondering about that slow clutch return I was dealing with. With how I routed my exhaust it got abit close to the soft line so it collapsed internally , got a new braided line made up at a local hydraulics shop and put 2 different heat sheathings on it, working fine so far

So just for clarification so I don't order the wrong parts. I can use xat modified flywheel http://www.xatracing.com/1uzflformasw.html with a ka clutch and 3sgte pressure plate. Mate it up with this throw out bearing http://www.xatracing.com/uztokatrthou.html and pilot bearing http://www.xatracing.com/xatuztokapib.html? And of course the billet adapter.

Alrighty here we go!
Ordered my adapter plate kit, lightweight flywheel and spec stage 2 clutch from XAT Racing just now. Also ordered my walbro pump. Picking out the storage unit tomorrow and once i have that all sorted out i will order the engine and trans, rent my engine stand and start ordering all of the gaskets/hoses/seals/send off the injectors, timing belt, water pump, etc etc. Probably even a new oil pump. why not. all OEM. paint a few things and work on WIRING. Ecu goes to russia for immobilizer bypass, order SRT intake and daughterboard. Then custom a/c lines. fuel line solution, evap solution, run heater hoses, sort out the cooling system with the largest, slimmest fan (spal). Here we go folks! THIS time around, i will start my own thread documented with dozens of pics. Unfortunately the bumper must also come off for bodywork and repair of my overpriced jdm kouki lip. Will also most likely be doing the TSX projector retrofit. already have the projectors w/ retrofitsource.com lenses and some shrouds that may/may not even work. Battery relocation will also be happening to accomodate as much of the SRT intake as possible. |

VVTi 1uz is coming out of new york from JDMEngineWorld. Paid 1150 shipped with the trans. Apparently if i can got the trans and locate all the solenoids someplace (hey, wires CAN be extended!) then i basically only end up with a VSS code. Also will have to make a switch of some sort to allow the engine to crank thinking its in "P" and then flip/activate the switch to switch it over to "D".
CD009 brand new in the box is sitting in the shop right now. Will disassemble this weekend to have the bellhousing machined 5/8" to accomodate the XAT Adapter plate. 2/27: Bellhousing is off of my brand new CD009 and at the machine shop for milling. Engine/trans/ecu/harness/accessories arrive tuesday! Last edited by nextproject; 02-27-2015 at 03:11 PM.. |

Ok so i was thinking about shifter positioning, apparently a kit is manufactured by Hoke Performance that shortens it the maximum amount, i imagine that this will be necessary as well so i'll be ordering that. If i dont need it i'll just sell it. Im sure i'll need it on the CD009 even though i am machining the bellhousing the thickness of the adapter plate.

I've got a shifter mechanism that places the shifter even shorter than you think it can go, hahaha! It uses heim joint and removes the stock housing completely. I'll get pics of that soon. Can wait for your build thread btw!

With having the striker reduced to it's very minimal length, your shifter still won't sit centered in the whole. It'll be about 2-3" back.

Is the Park/Drive thing a vvti only issue? Typical as long as IGN power is given to the Neutral Safety Wire, it will tell the engine its in park and allow it to crank and drive.

Hey guys, having some issues with my clutch.
I have 3sgte flywheel, sr clutch, 3sgte pressure plate, z32 trans, extended tob. I have 19mm of throw on the clutch fork, is this normal? I have the clutch adjusted all the way in the car, i even removed the sensor so i could gain some more throw. This is a brand new 6 puck clutch. |

It seems to be acting normal.
It worked with my old worn clutch, but this having more material, it wont release. I don't have it in the car. yet. I have it next to my car so i can attach the slave to the trans. Then i have the drive shaft in there. Is it normal for brand new clutches to be hard to release? Could i be pushing too much on the clutch? Is that a thing with single plates? |

Ah yes, after further research i realized this myself, its weird. cable driven to the throttle body, then the signal is sent from the TB/sensors to the ecu and ecu commands certain throttle angles based on that info. toyota ETCS-i works that way apparently. good to know!

I am just having all sorts of problems with the engine.
Alright peeps. So. rebuilt the 1uz. Tuesday it had 40psi of oil pressure while cranking, with no plugs to prime the engine. Wednesday, start it, it has 0 oil pressure (as the gauge says). Take off the sensor, oil pours out while cranking. Let it idle for 30 mins to seat the rings. Drain oil, put 6 qts and new filter back in. Yesterday, buy new gauge and sensor. 0 psi still, take off sensor, no oil squirts out. Anybody have oil problems with fresh new engine? All i did was replace the rings and bearings. |

Well most of the parts are in. Awaiting wiring instructions from cartune in australia, ecu is on its way to russia, lwfw is off to xcessive for machining of the ring gear, injectors are off to witchhunter, still waiting on my 3.69 r&p so i can see if it will interchange with the 3.54 ring and pinion i purchased out of a 350z r200 open diff. Valve covers and intake and coolant crossover are at the powdercoaters, timing belt, water pump, all gaskets and seals and plugs are done. Tried posting a build thread but apparently you need to be done with the swap before you post, so i will post one with countless pics when i finish and its running around with minimal CELs and working ac.

Turtle Meth is the guy to go to for exhaust, custom work, or just simple jobs.
He did a crossover pipe for my s13. 2.25" from headers to Y-Pipe then 2.5" outlet straight pipe. Sounds like a champ and I haven't even driven it or rev'd it high yet. (I know I still need a flex pipe though.) Just a short start up video:
