n/a to tt, need your help

hello all,im just after a lot of help rom u!! im looking to do a n/a tt conversion on my car. at the moment im running the standard jza80 on my 93 import, and im getting a 2jz engine to put into the car. i know il have to do a gear box upgrade to a tt box, but i need advice on what else il need 2 do the job properly, and if any of u have the parts for sale il gladly take them of ur hands, gearbox included, thanx for ur help:)

Erm, dude...

Firstly.. JZA80 is the chassis, the engine's are both 2JZ, with the NA being a 2JZ-GE and the turbo a 2JZ-GTE.

You will engine, ancs and ECU's. It is a fair amount of work, but a fairly easy job.

N/A TT should read N/A T lots less bother and expense..

in one of my first threads i did reserve the right to sound dumb!!

What sort of cost for the conversion is usual? Minus labour, the girlfriend bro can do it.

No chap, not taking the mick..

I've done this conversion, but I used a VVTi engine and then went single, and I had to do a fair bit extra due to the ECU/dash/looms issues. However if you fancy doing it and have the resources it is a nice way of doing it. (Not the cheapest but definitely a way forward)

wel as u can see im not quite sure what to do, im talking to a guy about buying his tt engine off him for £1200, and as i say im not sure what else will be needed to do the converson, but if i was to go single t how much would i b able to get before i have 2 change the gear box??

Which gearbox do you currently have, also the engine you are looking at, what does it come with? ECU? loom?

Sounds very cheap for a TT engine mate. Make sure you get the mileage of it and that it's been serviced or you could be buying a load of trouble.

Envy states about 5.5 k for a full single conversion everything done. Worth thinking about..

If its an standard N/A auto box there good for 350 BHP arn't they ...... Waiting to be corrected ...lol

£2k for the complete conversion kit from me, including engine with all ancilliaries, TT autobox, all looms and pipework with intercooler, prop, diff, and anything else you need. We have a very well known Supra technical guy using our workshop on monday, as we've donated an NA - TT conversion to document the conversion process, as some information about autoboxes locking up needs to be put to bed. I'll be posting a full write up with pictures once its completed.

Roughly about that, but it does vary greatly on the box condition...

You will need

Engine + loom + Ancill'

Intercooler + Piping

ECU

TT clocks

Thats pretty much the minimum needed to get it going... Different gearboxes etc are worth it, but can be done at a later date...

Hmmmm , maybe a better option then the N/A-T conversion ,

What kind of mileage will be on the engines jez and can you say the engines will be in good condition internally .

Yep, we only use sub 80k engines for the conversions, and they are fully tested for smoke, knocks and rattles etc before removal from the donor.

Jez me and you are gonna become good buddies some day .

haha, i mite become quite good mates with him soon aswel!! the guy im speaking to bout the engine has it at 60k now with the recent service, he seems a honest guy and welcomes a view by a mechanic. but i jst gota double check with the loom etc.. c what else i need to get, thanx for the help guys!! helpful when ur a noob on here!!!

dave:)

Anyone that is interested in a full TT conversion is more than welcome to come and listen to, and check over the donor engine prior to removal.
