Completed 4AGTE MR2 In WA

Finally 12 Months In the making ive finished my 4AGTE MR2.
Wat a absolute mission it as been. 1st Of all id like to thank Adz for my manifold and feral4mr2 for his hints and tips and joyride in his 4agte 2 reinspire me when i thought all hope was lost of ever completing this project.
Well to start off i did this conversion because i lunched my engine on the race track about 12 months back. Melted the NO 3 Piston in half. I guess thats what you get when u have a SAFC and a faulty AFM. It came off the dyno Friday with 208rwhp later 2 find out the turbo was shot and had blown seals and the such. If i wanted 2 smoke salmon then i would keep the turbo on lets put it that way. I get my new turbo tomorrow and go in again for a retune in a few weeks 2 get some more power out of it.
The Build List:
1989 Aw11 4agze
20 Thou Oversized Arias Forged Pistons
New bearings Throughout
HKS 264 Degree 8.1mm Lift Intake and Exhaust Cames with Tomei Style Adjustable Gears
T25 Turbo from CA18DET Silvia
Custom Build Adsport Turbo Manifold (Thanks Adz)
EMS Stinger Engine Management
Bosch 044 Fuel Pump
Aw11 4age Intake manifold and Throttle
Standard 4agze injectors
RX7 Series 4/5 Intercooler With shroud removed
Custom 8 Puck Ceramic Clutch With Rebuilt TRD Pressure Plate
Oil Catch Can
Hardest part of the build for me was replacing the standard fuel pump with the Bosch pump. I recommend to any one doing the conversion use a hoist to remove the fuel tank. Because using a few jacks isnt fun.
Ill post up some pics as soon as i have a chance to take some more and upload the lot.

well done mate good to see another 4agte running arround...
I know what its like im going through the same issues atm with my build up (money being the biggest issue). I was interested that you were using stock gze injectors do you know how much % duty they were at when you made 208 rwhp????
I heard that replacing the fuel pump was a bit of a nightmare so im gonna leave it to some1 else gonna get it cleaned at the same time...

indeed
yeah the rx7 core is a supprise you could allways turn it into a w/a intercooler then all you would need is a pump, heat exchanger and water pipes.
There is allways the option of putting an air/air core in the boot like i am atm if you dont use your boot normally..
Well when you get a chance or you get it retuned i would be interested in finding out your injector duty and if you are using a adjustable fuel pressure regulator...

Ill try get some pics up in the next few days for you all. The car is kinda messy at the moment lol. Im using the Standard GZE Rising Rate Fuel Pressure regulator. The GZE Fuel rail works fine aswell. Ive read that you must use the GE one but that was not the case with my conversion. I have build up pics on my PC ill upload them as soon as i get a chance.

Car starts perfect in the morning running the stinger if not better than the stock ecu did. Runs alot smoother and is better to drive than the gze was on stock management. I do not have airconditioning anymore. When i did the turbo conversion we removed the compressor and other components from the car.
