jonny mac Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 no updates really as of yet, returned my piston rings to conceptua and I'm selling my gte pistons if anyone wants them with the rods? all I've done is remove the rings and clean the tops I've got a new 2jz water pump/rear housing oem Toyota coming from conceptua instead of rings and i'll pay the difference going to have a guy named dave yandell do the machine work to bottom end and he has new internal parts to use and told me to sell my current stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Yes the engine was showing around 150 at removal. However i dont have any proof of what where miles and what where KM the old owner claimed it was 120km but didnt have anything to back it up. Probably safe to say its 100km the rest in miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 unfortunately no updates to post for the moment, having a bit of a rethink about what I'm doing with the car just now as I've got the chance to sell my r154 in a few months to a friend for good money, that will include my flywheel, clutch, propshaft etc so I might be in the market for a v160 / 161 in the next few months depending if my r154 sells that way i'll have a good transmission strong enough to take the 2jz power when drifting rather than risking blowing up my r154 and loosing any money I can get back on it just now also the 2jz gte pistons have now been sold and are away to Lithuania from memory as I sent them a few weeks ago going to be forging the block and going 86.5mm oversized pistons all just money that's holding me back for now, need to save up some more and get my head down and put in the hours at work!

jonny mac Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 been parts collecting recently new oem Toyota 2jz timing belt, tensioner and pulley also bought a new Toyota crankshaft pulley, new Toyota 1jz head gasket kit and a few other bits swapping over cylinder heads with my mate so I get some money back that I put into my head as I've decided now that I want to port out the cyl head and have as much flow/gains as possible, so rather than risk marking a perfectly good skimmed head and stripping all the freshly ground in valves, I'd just do a px with him so we are both happy as he needs his head skimmed anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 so, bought a new Toyota oem crank pulley and a new Toyota oem 1jz head gasket set, went for the 1j gasket as it fits the head better, I do have another 1j head gasket but It was almost as cheap to import a full gasket set from japan, as it was to buy a full set of new stem seals from Toyota uk the head I had has now gone to someone else and I've received his head back plus some money in exchange to cover me for the work I had done + new steam seals so the new head now will be going to a specialist for porting and polishing, multi angle valve seat job, hot tanked for cleaning, port matching, manifold and head gasket mating surfaces skimming, new valve guides and a few other things oh also all the shims set for the 264 cams I've got so I'll get a head back that will probably flow just as much, if not more than a stock 2jz head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 My 2jz ge block is now at marcin's in Dundee, mac motosport he's supplying forged cp pistons 8:5:1 ratio and all the new bearings/arp bolts etc the head is down at bret sims motorsport having a full port and opening up job including shimming the bc 264 cams into the head, also I've bought a set of bc valve springs and titanium retainers, along with new Toyota valve stem seals etc new crank pulley showed up oem gasket set Toyota parts starting to bulk up . oem squirters and bolts new cam sensors, crank sensor, thermostat, ecu temp sensor and so on second hand jzx90 front sump being cleaned up vvti water neck more to come soon!

ashloys Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Good read so far Jonny, keep it up. Must be very near completion now if you're selling the 1J? At least you aren't a sisy like Dylan and have stuck with it. Spending 2 years or more building his S15 for him to give up at the first sign of bother lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice update I went in to see Marcin a few weeks back. Think I'm going to get him to do some work for me too once funds have replenished! What power are you looking for? 8:5:1 not a bit low? I'd have thought somewhere in the 9's would've been better unless you're going for 700+? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 reason I've gone factory compression is I don't know how much smaller the 1jz head combustion area is yet so I was concerned I'd put that on and have a really high comp ratio I was going to have it measured by the head shop to compare my size against a 2jz head and work out cr that way hopefully also the head will be skimmed a fair bit and the block decked too so that'll take off a small amount too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) arp head studs brian crower springs and titanium retainers new clutch kit, twin disc new 'second hand' gearbox bought some 800cc sard injectors block parts, pic from marcin 2jz gte oil squirters machined into the ge block, also the oil feeds to match, block is now identical to the gte cp forged pistons on stock ge rods, no need for forged rods with the power level's I'm aiming for since the stock rods can take up to 800+ hp 6 boost manifold, t3 twin scroll, two wastegate ports two new turbo smart wastegates factory style oil feed in the block bit concerned that marcin hadn't decked the block, he said to just use a stanley blade and scrape the surface. don't really like that idea arp studs Edited March 29, 2017 by jonny mac (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 emu, stand alone management just waiting on a few more sensors to arrive, air intake temp 6x bosch coils so I won't have to worry about an igniter anymore an8 fuel system parts some more of the clutch after I collected it conversion plate aeromotive fuel pressure reg tial 50mm bov lastly, the new precision gen2 ball bearing 5858 turbo, smaller for instant spooling basically, I don't want lag! possibly will go to a 6262 depending how this gets on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 If you have any oven cleaner left send it in a plain wrapper to my wife, she might take the hint, our oven is like the black hole of Calcutta inside and a chicken comes out brown without even turning the damned thing on Those exhaust manifolds look nicely made.

Shane Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Nice collection of parts, very impressive. Good to see you using the ECU Master EMU. Be interesting to see how you get on with it, have you found a mapper happy to do it? I have a Det3 piggyback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krister Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) Wonder why you opted for the stock rods as they are weaker than the stock pistons. So basically you left the weakest parts inside the engine. I would fit some Eagle, or even no-name china rods instead of the stock rods. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Connecting-Rod-rods-for-Toyota-Supra-MK4-2JZ-2JZ-GTE-2JZ-GE-Conrod-Bielle-TCB-/162022946018 Edited April 25, 2016 by Krister (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 (edited) not sure who's mapping the ecu master, I do have someone in mind but I'll have to wait and see, I've asked Mac motorsport for a base map but he said he will give me it when i'm at a turn key point with the build. also the ge rods are now out of the block, I found some marks in the engine I wasn't too happy about as it's only been turned over by hand, I'd asked advice from a few different engine builders all saying the same thing, I've sent the engine down south to another builder, the rest of the story is not for forums/online reading, it's private as I don't agree with slagging people off online. I'm not going to talk sh*t online about previous parts suppliers/engine builders etc so I don't want people involved/bad mouthing anyone. just updating my build thread as I go Head is done, all chambers balanced opened up all ports to gasket match/opened up inside for maximium flow new Toyota oem valve stem seals multi angle valve seat cut job brian crower 264 cams shimmed in brian crower titanium valve retainers and springs fitted manifold faces skimmed head face skimmed Edited June 28, 2016 by jonny mac (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted August 6, 2016 Author Share Posted August 6, 2016 (edited) right, an update, not going into this on the forum as I don't name call online and talk bad about people behind their backs as that is not fair! Couldn't agree with previous builder on some issues I had with the block so I decided to start a fresh. scoring in the bores that was not there before, a non flat gasket surface, some chips on the faces of the new bearings i'd found when removing piston to rehone a cylinder, not happy at all. I sold the cp pistons and ge rods etc and I've started from scratch, also sold the turbo because the brand new one i'd bought from him wasn't actually brand new, yes eventually i'd got a new from him when i handed back the rebuilt one, but after speaking with other tuners they all said that it's a turbo fit for a 4 cylinder honda, not a 2jz! I don't want to be seen bad mouthing anyone here as I have been previously accused when he'd found someone else doing it on this forum and I've nothing to do with it. Block is now down south at another engine building shop, the cylinders have been .5mm oversized to remove scoring and are like brand new now! basically i'm looking at a 3 grand rebuild bill ZRP Forged H Beam Rods Wossner 86.5mm 8:5:1 Ratio Comp Pistons Crank back from balancing against all new parts inc my clutch and flywheel assembly block after having 3 days in the acid/descale tanks oversized .5mm cylidner work done, now decking the surface Look at the cylinder finish! block painted rings gapped crank in line up my new toyota gte oil pump on with new o rings and it was ported out inside for flow restriction issues that can come with stock pumps now i'm just waiting for the core plugs to arrive with him on monday then the engine's coming my way as for the next big, turbo choice, i think i'll be going GTX3582R with the T3 Twin scroll exh housing as garret seem to be the only ones that offer twin scroll borg warner and precision both don't list it in the turbo model's i like, so not to worry, a gtx will be fun at the moment, It's looking like the block will be here next week, so if all goes well and my head gasket will keep me within comp ratio I need, then i'll have the engine built together next weekend Edited March 29, 2017 by jonny mac (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Seeing as you have fitted the oil Squiters and drilled/tapped for turbo oil feed I'm sure you are aware but that oil gallery is not connected to the opposite side on GE blocks so no oil can get into that gallery without having to machine/drill a passage across the block to join the oil galleries:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted August 6, 2016 Author Share Posted August 6, 2016 well, I think the squirters and the turbo oil feed would come off the same channel/oil passage so surely if I get oil through the turbo oil feed, it would go through the squirters too ? I'd say marcin had the block done right as he does the ge-gte conversions all the time he said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonny mac Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 the turbo arrived bought it from universal turbos GTX3582R t3 divided .83 exh housing 4" compressor anti surge intake 2.5" out to cooler new style bearing cages too for the ball bearings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 you have pm squirters were done correctly as there is a bolt on the side of the block where it had been opened up to allow for drilling of the front oil gallery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 head is now down at the machine shop having a little more taken off as due to going .5mm oversize on the bores, the compression ratio lowered due to the larger cc in the chambers the head needs to have 40cc per cylinder in the head to allow for an 8:5:1 ratio currently it has 43cc so working out around 9thou per cc meaning another 27 thou to be removed from the head can't wait to get it back now as I've got everything lined up and ready to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 bought a gtx3582r 4" anti surge intake 2.5" out .83 t3 divided exhaust housing 3" vband exit it came from universal turbo's formally known as CR turbos, had to take the cams, shims and buckets out the head (kept in order) as the head needs skimmed now a little more this is to let the compression come back to 8:5:1 as the oversized bore has increased the total cc in the cylinders the head is now in a machine shop in a que of jobs to be done block arrived home, i'm super happy with it you can also see written on the piston is 20cc, the stock pistons are 9cc! hence the compression change so head work is needed as i'm not reducing the gasket thickness as the stock 1.2mm 1jz head gasket works really well got the cam covers powdercoated electric blue with metalic flakes these are insane in the sun! also have started tidying up little bits in prep for assembling the engine literarly waiting on the head to have some more taken off then it'll be build/checking time as i need to make sure i have enough piston to valve clearance etc oh also invested in a Link g4 engine management package Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
