before the JZ swap it was SR powered...firstly a stock motor with HKS 264 cams, Greddy RAS, 740cc, isis intake, TD Autowerkes top mount manifold, precision 5857 ball bearing, Comp twin disk, HKS twin power, AEM EMS tuned by Area 51 tuned, making 483hp at 24psi with AFR still in the 10s



went 6.81 in the 1/8th mile with a 1.4 60'

[krysknowles]

i decided to go all out and build a vvl motor. I sourced a p11 motor locally and started the build. The head was sent to Mazworx and was mated to a 90mm sleeved block, the head got supertech springs and retainers...i also got their intake and SS top mount manifold, along with sr/vg trans adapter with drive shaft kit and custom garrett 1000hp intercooler. ID1000 and dual 044 pumps rounded off the fuel sys.

some ppl say its a dumb reason but i didnt wanna be tied to such and extensively built motor....if the motor had any issues in the future i felt as if i was married to mazworx, so i ditched it for something i can handle at this time. JZ motors are a dime a dozen around here, they make power stock and easy to build if i ever decide i wanna push it

[shiftdrift]

i definitely understand. well i'm doing a 1jz vvti build, and know that jz's are a great choice!

[Imarvin240]

as stated on their site, the manifold needs some work. the flange needs to be surfaced and the flange ports are MUCH smaller than OEM so its a must to port match.....other than that its a must have imho, its sooooo easy to work with. I can completely remove it in about 5 mins

[rangerjavi]

Damn, wish I met you before I took my cruise over there, my girl was mad at me because I was following cars and taking pictures of them then wanting to take a taxi to the nearest junkyard for souvenirs.

Yeah I read it but never seen anyone with it, but thats good to know keep it going

[NismoTuner21]

Nice!! How much power did it make? And how do you like that ISIS intake manifold?

[driftwhat]

Nice engine bay man 1j looks nice and clean in there! I see your temp gauge in the one pic is at close to 200 -210... Do you have any temp issues? Im running a 1j with an hx40 turbo swap and seem to be having a couple cooling issues my self.

the highest it goes is 200 which ppl say is normal and i have coolant only in there so im gonna drain and put 50/50, but as it stands now it hangs at 200 with no issues
