corrupt Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 that dosnt look like a pull type clutch? Ill be pissed off if it isn't, first the brake pedal box didnt fit, then the flywheel bolts were too short and was missing the spigot bearing, so much for a "full conversion kit" if this clutch is wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanfels Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I could be wrong though as i havnt really looked that close at them How much did it ruflly set you back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corrupt Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 It was all 3500 shipped from christchurch, its definately a pull type clutch, i just checked and it has a big bearing thing on the other side of the pressure plate which the fork hooks on to. Picked up my ARP flywheel bolts today, they were listed as 4AGE ones, apparently they are the go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyteler Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Worthwhile transformation then? Mind you... if the Cortina was your benchmark .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corrupt Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 Worthwhile transformation then?Mind you... if the Cortina was your benchmark .... This has crossed my mind, i doubt the cortina will ever hit the spot when I finally get round to finishing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corrupt Posted March 14, 2010 Author Share Posted March 14, 2010 Took it down to NSDW the other night, only managed to get 3 runs in before the weather turned to shit. Best run was 14.351 @ 162.42km/h, i need to sort out my launch/60ft (.565/2.336) then ill be into the 13s In other news, turbo started making grinding noises on boost yesterday, I took it off and noticed that im missing one fin off the ceramic turbine which was putting the shaft out of balance and making it scrape on the housing. Possible reasons for this? Before the drags i took the silencer out of the exhaust for the first time which gave the car a massive power increase/possible over boosting and/or also not letting the car cool down properly after a pretty spirited drive Plan is to get a replacement turbo to get it back on the road, then start researching other turbo options to give it a bit more kick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHGWAG Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Why not research other turbo options & then put on Optioned Turbo & then get it back on the road. THIS is what a mate has on his 1JZ ute, hasn't had it on a dyno, but pulls harder than a schoolboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corrupt Posted March 14, 2010 Author Share Posted March 14, 2010 it would be nice to do it that way, but im pretty keen to get it back the road asap, being that its my daily. also im the type of guy who shops around getting every possible part needed for ages before any action happens, which means the chaser would probably be off the road for months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLAWLES Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 this is the turbo that in is 90% of the 1jzgte vvti kits done by hks http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobyga ... T3071R.htm it would most likely have ever so slightly diff trim spec's, but that turbo compined with a rasty or hpi manifold you will get good gains..........tell a lie.........massive gains, another good manifold is the tomei one, alot of pple bag them but the results are there on paper oh and after my pm to you i forgot to add that i read somehwere that you can solt you manifold turbo flange to suit other turbos, dont know if this is true or not, lol not keen to try another little trick if you know two people with st215 calidinas is go steal there beams 3sgte injectors ( as they are top feed ) they are 540cc injectors from factor and bolt straight up to the 1jz vvti intake and fuel rail, failing that ex rhdjapan they are about $120ea fuel press reg will do wonders too, but get a decent brand for some strange reason the vvt-i 1jz have rather small injectors, best advice i got when i was looking for an upgrade, was look at what you do with the car daily/weekly, and what you want from the car, hence why i went down the oem hi-flow, has massive gains down low and im doing the same power with lower psi...........still havent put up the boost yet ha catch you tonight when i give you this spare ct15b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corrupt Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 This afternoon/night was spent putting the replacement turbo on which i got off flawles. Goes hard, even harder than before and bonus is that it holds a constant 0.8bar rather than my old turbos 0.7bar Now hopefully i dont break this one before ive sorted out/gathered all parts for a turbo upgrade.

corrupt Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 So the original turbo on the car did this to the turbine wheel(fin snapped off): So i managed to track down a good deal on a second hand turbo, which went awesome for a week or so, then decided to do this: So i then had to fish out all of this stuck in the cat: So with the two busted turbos, steve murch came up with this: Fully rebuilt, new seals, new shaft and more importantly a steel turbine wheel: And while it was off the road i painted the wheels: And bought some personalised plates: I then gave her a nice full tank of 98 New turbo goes mint, am planning to get a boost controller and increase the boost to 1.0 bar. Painting the wheels have also made it look a million times better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLAWLES Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 oh shit that turbo i gave you done that sweet jebus i feel stink sorry man sweet so the murch done you a high flow like mine?, should flow some sweet air, fyi you will need a hks 1bar actuator to pull one bar out of that turbo, anything over 11psi the hi-flows seem to pull the waste gate open, may be different on your one but its basicly what mine was doing wait till you hit 18psi, you will shit your self its that much fun/scary again mega sorry about that spare ct15b but the jzx100 is looking reall rad man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corrupt Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 Nah nah, its was just a standard rebuild, bar the steel wheel. I had originally told him i wanted to highflow it similar to what you had done, but i decided to just keep things standard for now as it is my daily driven car and I have no intention in upgrading fueling/ecu anytime in the near future. In saying that, now that its steel wheeled I can now safely wind the boost up past 1bar without fear of a ceramic turbo shitting itself, should go mental as with anything over 1bar, already mental enough on standard boost, convert yours to manual and you'll understand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLAWLES Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 oh sweet, well thats good none the less, steve does a good job 1bar does rule tho just getting the hang of my chaser, its a hand full in the wet, need to re-set the boost controller to suit tho good stuff tho, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
