Grant,
Currently my 1JZ has a MicroTech LTX12 which has inbuilt igniters. I have a 3" exhaust from the turbo. HKS Airfilter, custom metal piping on some parts of the intake. Stock GZ20 FMIC. HD Clutch, custom bellhousing to suit W58 gearbox. Custom sump. Trust oil catch can. No boost controller. After putting in new vacuum lines to almost everything, the boost gauge is reading approximately 8-10PSI boost throughout 1,2,3rd. It's also got a Bosch 979 external fuel pump, 2 14" thermo fans and a blitz blow off valve.
I still have my Celicamad boost controller to put in and adjust to 12PSI. It has only had one tune and I've only been driving it for around a week, still running a bit rich and the cooling system needs a good flush. I'd like to go to 14PSI with a bigger front mount intercooler, hopefully soon as the intake gets extremely hot.
I still have everything else stock, wheels are still the 15" stockers, LSD, lowering the car on Tuesday with some kg/mm HD springs. I'm trying to track down a second hand APEXi N1 or JUN B.L muffler and some second hand 17" wheels, I like the KR ones. On another note I got a really good alarm system and attached my $100 pager that works really well with it, that was from KC Electronics.
There is no stepper motor however, so it takes a few minutes to warm up from say 5 degrees cold, as I did tonight, then it idles fine. I'm yet to get a Handset and install my oil pressure and water temp gauges, and put in a new turbo timer. I also have a nice new oil cooler to install.
I don't think I'll be changing the turbo's, i'd like to get 200RWKW when the intercooler and boost gauge is put in and it is tuned correctly. I'm also looking at replacing the y-peice with some bigger twin dumps. Also my 1JZ is the one with traction control, I was trying to work out what model Soarer or Chaser or Supra it came from.
I can't really think of anything else at the moment, but when i pulled out of RPM it was tuned for 7PSI, and after replacing hoses it now rests under 10PSI so maybe a leak?
By the way my MicroTech LTX12 with inbuilt igniters cost me $1900 fitted and tuned.
I'll get some pictures this weekend. RPM Performance Centre did the conversion, really great blokes.
I'd like to see other people's 1JZ engine bays and a list of mods they have done with their results. I'm yet to post my results after the second tune.
