where is the car going? getting it tuned or what?

To a friend house to get the car finished up. I'm moving soon and I don't wanna drag the car over there not running. Then it's off to the tuner.

jwin, are you going with any cams on this setup? what are your realistic expectations #'s on pump fuel, and or e85? Im assuming that you are still running the bosch 1000cc correct?

jwin

No cams. I'm looking for 500 on pump and over 600 on e85. I will probably only do the e85 or pump tune only. One or the other.

nuturf87

Im surprised you aren't going for cams. Schneider cams can regrind your stock cams if you choose to, its a bang for the buck too. Look into it. you'll get 500 on pump for sure with your setup. Isn't aem v1 FF capable? like that you can run both pump/e85 on the fly.

Don't need cams right now. I will do cams when I do built motor and cnc port head. For my power goals cams aren't needed. The aem v2 can do ff the aem v1 is dinosaur technology but still a capable standalone Ecu for my goals and needs.

Hey man, I love the build, question again on the mojo coil pack upgrade, is it like plug and play or is there some splicing into the ECU, and can I use my stock ecu with this till I get around to getting the AEM EMS V. 2?

^^^^^ Mojo has some kind of box that makes a signal for the ecu but i am not sure if that is for a 2jzgte or a 2jzge. It will not be a plug and play you will have to splice some wires, but I wouldn't get the lq9 packs if you don't have a standalone. I think its a more pain in the butt if you don't need to do it. I wanted/needed to run coilpacks on my car anyways so I figured either get the vvti coils and igniter or lq9 and the price was roughly the same so I went with lq9 since they provide better output. If you get the GE lq9 coilpack with them and decide to use TT valvecover you will need to mod the bracket that holds down the coilpack to fit.


Well the car is back at my house my buddy wasn't able to get any work done on it due to his new job. My daughter just turned 1 year old on wednesday so hopefully after her party his weekend I could get some work on the sc next weekend. Its wishful thinking, but the priority in my life definitely isn't the sc and its been that way for over a year. I could never imagine a simple Na-T v160 swap could take so long. Haha. Hopefully it would be done soon cause i am sure tired of looking at my junkyard AKA my garage. Its a freaking mess with car parts everywhere which is a hazard to walk in.

Keep it up buddy! Same with me. I'm only collecting parts and feel i don't have to even do that... your car is pure awesome and it has come a long way. Do your thing, your car will be there waiting. Peck at it when you have time. You will enjoy it more that way. Works for me!

I'm actually to a point where I have lost interest in the project. I just need to get it running soon. I did manage to get my downpipe done. Only thing left is intercooler piping and a few little things here and there.

Aww common bro, get it done already and enjoy driving it.

Need new injector orings since injector #5 is pissing out fuel and the AEM won't connect to the computer. I hope it is because of the serial to USB cable. I'm almost at the point where I can finally start this car. Thanks to Chris C. for the help.
