damn buddy all the hard work you did and you parting already.....well it was good to see another turbo build gl on the sale when you part

 

wait what happened the hybrid motor setup you were planning. You already have the parts to make it happen.

But just encase I am calling dibs on the tranny

 

wo wo wo, im jealous man, why do all you guys spike so much? i havent spiked not once, heck i havent seen my spring boost pressure of 5.7 psi yet... Mind you have i have multiple boost leaks and i've had 2 blown turbos but still man...

Anyway dont give up bro.. The fun has just begun...

 

Good luck on the sale, I know that kit is going to go quick, if I didnt have to pay for school I would send you paypal right now and convert my RMT to front mount.

 

Leaned out

Thanks

Only if the heads arnt damaged but idk

thanks and ill only sell the kit until i get another motor, If i get another motor iam leaving the kit on my car, BUT if i do sell the kit 1st iam going to do a 1JZ or 2JZ swap into my Supra..

 

Do you know what happened to the motor?

 

We want details! So we can learn what not to do!

 

Is knocking

i leaned out after lowing the fuel pressure down to 30psi and i had a boost spike the day before that prob hurt it but idk

 

WTB a De-K with decent mileage prefer it to be local

 

damn sorry to hear.

 

trial and error, i just wished i didnt Ruined a perfectly strong running 3.5

 

Same here, I threw a rod on the stock 3.5 I put in within weeks. But it was already fkd from before. Trial and Error is what its all about, I abused the crap out of my 3.0, learned alot too.

 

Yea thats how it goes but i might be putting in a de-k next weekend so the kit will be for sale until then

 

no spikes here but having a 44mm wg helps

 

stock 3.5+15psi spike+advance timing =

 

What's keeping you from putting another VQ35 in?

 

$$$$$

 

You can get VQ35s for like $400-500.
How much are DE-Ks?

 

You could just try and rebuild the 3.5. For some reason I missed the details of this being a 3.5, they seem to be kinda picky (the weak point being the rods). I would not recommend having no timing control on a 3.5 or even running a safc/vafc unless it is a bolt on s/c kit. You can run a safc/vafc if you have a J&S safeguard though. Hopefully you decide to put another motor or rebuild instead of getting rid of all the hard work you just did. Setbacks are part of this portion of the hobby.

 

Agree, it seems 3.5's are a little pickey with the tuning. I pinged alot on the 3.0, thats was my method of tuning lol, lean it till I could hear marbles then then richen it up a lil bit, with no timing control. Didnt give me issues, well i had to replace the headgasket because it leaked for like 2 years lol. eventually I think the rings went bad. I think with that form of tuning a 3.5 would have pop'd right away. Now I use the J&S and its the best investment I have ever made.

 

Well I put a dek in now just started her up so this thread will continue

 

Good to hear.

 

Video! lol

Good to hear it's running man!

 

your upsest with having a video i promise after i fix this idle issue and get a proper tune i pesonally pm you and let you know when i put the vid up

 

I'm just messing with you man. I know the car is fast, I just want to see it. lol

 

lol i know thanks for the support but seriously i got you with a vid

 

Cool, thanks man! lol

 

I know the feeling man
Glad to see you are going to do a de-k though. Im postive it will be a strong motor.

 

So did you end up selling the kit? Or are you gonna use it on the dek?

 

It is the motors pretty good

re used it

 

Well a little bad news today, my hood flew up and this happened:

 

Lol any details?

 

hit boost the the hood flew up then smaked the windsheild the i started cursing up a storm

 

Oh crap no good. Do you know what caused it to open? I have been thinking of adding pins to my hood since I did some cutting of the support and the bracket that holds the locking mechanism to fit my tranny cooler.

 

I think now is a good time to buy a carbon fiber hood.

 

welcome to the jdm club.. i need two new fenders and a new hood as well, boost does amazing things.

 

i had gotten into a frontend accident last year, so i have a strong feeling that has something to do with it

iam not looking foward to send more money

 

ehhhh

 

well ive been fighting with this car ever since i put the dek in an 1 tps sensor and 1 coil later the car is running Stupid rich. my wb reads 10.0 at idle and the car is hard to start back up after it fully warms up, i heard it could be that i damaged my injector o-ring(s) when i pulled the out of the 3.5 LiM and put them in the dek LIM so iam going to order new O-rings and see where that puts me

 

i even tried lowering the afpr to 15psi and i pulled -50 corrections off of the afc, still the same reasults
