  1. Yeah, maybe, but with the electric clutch, it is just a N/A 1JZ as the pulley is spinning freely. (I just like it cause it mad max style :D as I have an XA coupe too)

    Plus with it not being decompressed it will have good low down power and at 100ks less need to change down a gear.

    Have considered a single turbo vvti 1JZ, they are not overly priced aswell.

  2. Yeah, but if you where after economy, you wouldn't do up a a falcon six, you'd leave it standard and nana it around, plus, my carbied xf 6 did over 32 MPG, my efi only did 28MPG, both stock standard to start with ;D Plus my carbied one ate my efi one in performance, but I have not tried the muiltipoint one out for economy.

  3. Yeah, just I have seen heaps of vvti 1JZs on you tube, but gues the dual vvti a different thing all together do deal with

    (and i have 1st option on a 05 (LEXUS/Altezza) dual vvti 2JZ-GE complete, loom to gauges for just over $1500 delivered to my door) ...bugger it would be such a mission to set up

  4. I am confused - what exactly are you building - a 1300GT Escort, an XA Falcon Coupe with an XR6 motor in it or a Supra with a 2JZ?

    All of the above, plus I was doing a 2L escort :D

    Just about finished 1300 ( was getting 1300GT info for building up 1600 high compression (bits for sale om TM) escort...gave up on the pushrod and dropped in a 1600 OHC cause every OHV block I looked at was pitted etc...

    XA coupe long term dream car project....

    Sold some of the 2L escort stuff

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 757914.htm

    and bought a Mk3 widebody aerotop supra ;D drifties on (Need a tow wagon) so start off with economical engine and make it a little gruntier.

    I have had 4 mk3 supras, this is number 5.... 8)

  5. I know alot of the stock cars boys do this, an I am keen to do this to get my XA Coupe driving, maybe even leave it in there permanently with the way gas prices are.

    Anyone know what model falcon dizzy you use? And what manifold and carb are best suited?

    AU XR6 motor the best option?

    Any info ideas would be appreciated.

    (Apart from dont tell me to put a V8 in it...why? AU motor $400 same power, better on gas, just not the same sound)

  6. Is it really that hard to wire a 1JZFSE? they run the same style of 24v lazy cam setup as a 1gfe or for that matter a 4afe/3sfe.

    I think there is a bit extra cause of the direct injection.

    Yeah, I have looked on the Beams 1g-fe ans supercharged would prob make 200+hp

    But vvti JZ are pretty good on gas, and good for towing :D

    FSE engines are almost impossible to get hold of but would be my number one choice if i could find/afford one!

  7. You trollin?

    Just bolt some turbos on if you want more power.

    I dont want 250-300 hp all the time, just for the occasional track day, I have helped set up a supercharger from a estima before on a vl and it worked mean, just got a different a front pulley a ran a dedicated belt, use no more gas... and only slighty more when it was boosting.

  8. this thread is kerazy.. I may as well ask whats the most economical engine for my 55 chev..

    LMAO, that would be the last of the pushrod holden sixes, I am helping put on into a 38 chev atm, we just pulled out a 55 motor (After just fitting a custom oil filter as they dont have one standard, but the hole it there for them) I looks just like the chev six in the engine bay and it blts up the the 38s gear box!!!

    Does 30MPG with my falcon diff in it is now 5 stud (front took some modding)...so the mag options are endless.

    ANY WAYS

    If i can get 35mpg out of a supra again, i will be stoked!!!!!!!!!

  9. My plan involves my shell which has no engine/box at all :D

    It was originally a 1G-GTE-auto, but seeing as that will cost more than...lets say a 1JZ-GE, I thought I might as well make it more economical as possible...for the cost of a cert.

    I want supra, I bike to most places (uni and work), but for long trips, I dont want a gas guzzler.

    I have had a 7M, once head gasket was replaced, higher torque settings fixed is, did 100,00ks and then sold it. No problems, people just need to open the cam covers, pull out one head bolts, slide in a stud a d repeat the process, you dont even have to take off the head to fix it permanently...for $200
