All the maintenance bits like mounts and water pump etc...

Still need to do:

Make gearbox mount
Buy some turbos!


Stage 1 is basically get it going NA. To be completed in a month or so. 250WHP

Stage 2 is throw a turbo (T51R or GT45R if single or twin GT28 or similar) and water injection running 10:1 compression and circa 13psi for around 550-600WHP.

Stage 3 custom CP pistons and rods, head work and cam, more boost (mid 20's and 800+WHP


















The goal for the car is to have a 10 second street car that can handle a little circuit fun and be a comfortable GT car.

so turbo or supercharger?
Do you have a final decision?

Saying SC to my mates dont mind helping with aircon back in haha, but will go single if room or twins

porshhhh951

stay single. Plenty of guys running the t51R as well as the GT stuff.

Fyi are you trying to keep it pump gas? Cause that motor with that turbo will make 600hp on pump fuel all day long?

There was one in houston that made 1042.

i thought the stock motor was good up to 1000hp w/o much internal mods and bolt ons....

cool project, i love supras. I had a 90 mk3 7mgte and i still love how that thing drove.

What is that V8 out of, and is it NA to begin with? Sorry I am not that familiar with Toyota's other then Supra's. I love the Mark IV's but I think the factory spoiler is a must the finish off the look.

^ agreed. I was actually debating over buying a MKIII turbo but then I fell in love w/ the 951...

So was the stock 2JZ the N/A motor then? I find it amazing that the MKIV was so much bigger than the III and yet it is lighter...cool.

Good luck! Thanks to Fast and the Furious those cars now go for ~$20-30k for one in decent condish!

I was thinking about that the other day......kind of ridiculous! Although they are pretty awesome cars....

shaheed

he's using the 1UZFE motor people (LS400/GS400), not the 2JZ-GTE

While it may ruffle some feathers, there is a Porsche 928 that will be doing this soon, with an auto. Another with a 5spd. EFI, Sleeves, Boost, perfect tuning.

Awesoem project. How much heavier is the V-8? Couldn't be much with the straight 6 from that car being an iron block.

I just noticed - interesting place for a starter. Hope that ones new before you button everything up.

So..........where exactly did the on-topic police go?

Dan, a 928 owner posted above you, of course it's not on topic!

The stock GTE motor is possibly with a HUGE turbo running 30+ something PSI and some lag. This is still a street car and the V8 will have a lot better torque curve
