Hey guys just a curious question, im thinking of buying a cressida and having the whole sleeper look, was just wondering how much people have paid for a 1jz conversion, and what box etc. ive been searching but just wondering costs of the build

What ever 1jz you can get your hands on. Use the stock Trans or the one that comes with your half cut/ conversion package. So cost really depends on how good of a deal you get on the motor package

Thanks, okay found a car and a engine, hopefully have it in a couple of weeks. What's some basic things to do to get it running, the car is going to be unregistered (currently on my p's) until I have my open license so around a year. I'll just be running it down the drag strip and maybe around one of the raceways until then.

my understanding the biggest engine capacity being turbo/supercharged you can go in a MX83, is using the below formula:

Mono Constructed vehicles ( One piece) (not separate chassis) is Original vehicle weight(kg) X 4.0.
This formula is also for 4 cylinders and rotaries over 1100kg, 8 & 12 cylinders.

Using this formula, the mx83 kerb weight is 1361kg. This calculates to being 5444cc's. Not bad.
This is the maximum engine capacity being turbo/supercharged providing no other systems on the car is overloaded, and the Approved person is comfortable that all other systems and engine subsituition is adequate to meet ADR's

I wouldn't risk it. You will over-fuel and drive like a pig and will annoy the sh!t out of you on the day. Best bet would to do a quick road tune at least if you have laptop and AFR gauge it shouldn't be too difficult as they are suppose to be a simple system.

Can't talk though as I have only heard and never had one.

Come to think about it, shouldn't you be able to deduct the percentage of duty of the 800cc injectors to match the stock rate?

it wont hurt it but it will blow heaps of fat out the exhaust and may run crap at idle. just find someone that knows microtechs to have a quick play with it to get you though powercruise. e85 will make it not run so fat wink.gif

Well i was thinking of just winding a bit more boost into it. But i dont think that will be a good idea with the 38mm gate :/ i might try and find someone before next wednesday i think. Any suggestions?

pig060
Post #2154

winding the boost up will only help when on full noise. why dont you just use the factory injectors until you get it tuned with the 800s

WotLag
Post #2155

Thanks mate i might just do that

Post #2156

Ok so stock injectors are back in. Wouldnt idle and flooded when it came on boost. Goes well with the big shiny plenum biggrin.gif

The brand is KU Engineering. I think it is china spec but it is really well made.

the stock auto will support a fair bit of power, just ask kristian for a pm about the shift kit wiring, new valve body and extra clutch backs, we had a stock auto built in a back yard holding holding 600hp, true story biggrin.gif

also just get some cams some one to do awesome head porting maybe a proper huffer
