Kaan W Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 We are looking at twin turbo'ing one, just need a cheap supra to start the build That would be a killer! Are these as strong as the 2JZ when it comes to power? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest marticus Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 That would be a killer! Are these as strong as the 2JZ when it comes to power? 500+ rwhp is possible on the earlier engines out of the box from what i've read, much above that then it's built internals. there have been questions about the strength of the alu block if pushing into 4 figures. This is the same basic motor HKS used in their drag supra which was pushing well over 1000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham1984 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 This car is now up for sale if anyone interested? I've also got a V8 conversion sitting here ready to fit as well! Sorry Paul I don't have time to peek through the whole thread atm, whats the cost roughly to do a conversion for a manual? I remember seeing before that it was a pita but wondered if there was any progress on this. Get some videos of these up too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Mitchell Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Oh I thought is was a lot more. My bad. Nice service Paul, I thought you would have done more conversions at that price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumpbike Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 LS400's going on ebay for sub £500 running fine, engine is a bargain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Looks like I will be making a turbo kit for the V8, looking at 6 months and it will be done. Dont know any details or pricing as yet before anyone asks! Also, I will have 2x V8 conversions available for next week if anyone wants one doing to there car. I hope you go with tubular manifolds instead of log type (if possible) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delboy52 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I have Rush Import long manifolds on mine but they're not suitable for going turbo. Something like the PPE ones should be lovely. Link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 I hope you go with tubular manifolds instead of log type (if possible) I won't be making a kit, unless someone wants to be a guinea pig? It would have been based on log manifolds though yes, to save on costs, they work fine for something like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delboy52 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Nice work! I'd be very interested to know what ECU and engine upgrade parts were used, and of course the performance this one is getting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
