400ZED, Could you PM me when you are going to the drags (Willowbank?)next. I would like to talk to you about your mods and hear want the motor sounds like. As I am building an ICV I have to meet ADR rules as far as mods are to the motor. Warren

You need to purchase the manifolds and linkage setup from Tony Miller. The throttle bodies I bought were from a *** import company in Brisbane and they cost me $200 for 2 complete sets(8 throttle bodies mounted to 2 manifolds). If you are prepared to look around you can always find parts for...

I was trying to emphasize the flexability of the engine not start a discussion on power to weight. R-Jay The Supra is a MkIV 2JZ and there has been no boost mods and even runs standard exhaust(at this stage). Next time you are driving your Supra, do 50kph in 6th gear on a flat section of...

Recently I went to New Zealand for a holiday and to get some parts to setup my motor with the 8 throttle body induction system using the 4AGE throttle bodies. Tony Miller from 1UZ Quad Cam in Auckland, who who sells this setup and has written about this system on this forum, took me for a ride...

Is it possible to attach a video file(AVI) to a thread. I have a 15 sec video of Tony Miller's 8 throttle body 1UZ setup in action including sound. I tried to attach it to a thread, but had no luck. It is about 5 Meg. Warren

CRS have a complete kit for a 1uzfe to R154. It is complete basically with everything that is needed. The clutch is heavy duty Toyota used on the 3Ltr turbo diesel. I can't remember the the exact price , but I think it was around $1700 AUS. If you any other questions please ask. Warren

If any one is interested in a gearbox for a converson take a look on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=43807&item=4520876504&rd=1 If it is from a 1JZ Twin Turbo it will be a R154. Take a look at where the drain plug is. This is where the drain plug for the R154 is...

Rod The brown sensor is wired in a loop configuration with the fuel injector under the plenum. The wires are green and black with a white strip. The only wire that appears to be connected to any thing is black wire with a white strip. This wire goes outside the engine loom to the fuse/relay...

There are a couple of pieces of equipment that are on the motor that I can't identify. On the throttle body, connected to a butterfly, is what looks as though it could be a small motor(traction control?). The butterfly is connected to throttle sensor 2. There is also a sensor in the water...

Started stripping unwanted wires from the loom. Only difficult part is that some of the plugs are a bit reluctant to come apart. Rod I live about 50K's west of Brisbane.

Rod, Thanks for the information. I was going to use a smaller fuse box(it was mentioned on this forum that a 180 SX fuse box would do the job) and a fusible link box from a EF/EL Falcon. The loom looks as though it will be a time consuming job. Warren

I am just about to modify the engine loom using Kdog's drawing. There are a few things I have questions about. 1. The Crown uses a fuel pump speed relay for 2 speeds. I was going to just use a single speed. What are the pros and cons of these different systems? 2. The exhaust control...

Dellow supply all new parts in their kits, there is no modification required either to the sump or gearbox and the bellhousing for the R154 does not use spacers. If anyone is going to purchase a kit I hope the information I have given will help when you are talking to the companies to come up...

When carrying out engine transplants and doing manual conversions in Australia there are a number of companies that supply the necessary components to enable almost any conceivable conversion. When doing the ground work to be able to buy the compents to allow a trouble free conversion you log...

Talk to Venom Custom Fabrications in Brisbane. I read that he fitted a 6 speed Supra box to his turbo charged 1UZFE he fitted to his Cobra. http://www.venomcobras.com/index.html

If you want a R154 gearbox, live in Australia and have a spare $1700 dollars there is one available on Ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=43807&item=2493477303&rd=1

I have at home two W58 gearboxes(earlier type) and a R154 (is currently away being reconditioned). The R154 box is bigger alround, but not much longer if any and the gearlever position appears to be in a similar position as the w58. I also have a CRS bellhousing kit for attachment to the 1UZFE...

The information I have states that the W55, W57, W58, W59 have 5 different gearlever positions- 14" -18" - 19" -20.5" and 21" measured from the front edge of the case above the input bearing to the centre of the gearlever. The updated W58 used in the N/A MkIV Supra a gear lever sits 4-5" back...

There is a bell housing available from either CRS or Dellow for the R154. It could be the gear lever position that causes the problem. If anyone has already converted thier Soarer/Lexus using a N/A MkIV Supra W58 would you be able to measure the from the front of the gearbox where the...

My son is keen in doing a manual conversion on a V8 Soarer. The clutch pedal box and master cylinder from a MkIV Supra will fit ok(anyone tried a clutch pedal box and master cylinder from a MkIII Supra or pre 91 Soarer). A W58 from N/A MkIV will bolt straight in, but he wants a R154 gearbox...
