Sorry for the late response but that IC should work just fine. I have all -6AN fuel lines from the Fuel tank up to the fuel rail with no banjo bolts/fittings. When i was on stock lines i used the factory supra rail/fittings, and some off the shelf fuel line from napa.


RECAP 2011
Had the car up and running for a few short months, seemed to be one issue after another with the new tuning software and the fuel system as well just being in a whole new car in general. But we got a few things sorted out and made some decisions to go bigger on some stuff this winter and removing somethings to go back to "simplicity"

We took the mapecu2 out of the car and Sold it to a SF member, We will be installing the AEM EMS Version 2 in the next couple of weeks.
We are also taking out the dual walbro 255's setup in favor for one Deatchwerks DW300 fuel pump as we have decided the car will never make the switch to E85, and just live life as a small turbo pump gas terror. With the adjustments to the fuel pump some of the fuel system stuff will be redone. We are also going with a TRD 160 thermostat (stock is 180) in hopes of helping the car run a little cooler. As well as swapping out the current e-fans for a set of FAL slim fan (series 420) with the FAL fan controller. Also on the list of "To Do" is finish the rest of the Q45 brake upgrade on the front. As well as a few other minor things here and there.

The plan is to have the car back up and running in early spring (March/April) and have it tuned in around them by Larry @ Sound Performance and let the car run for the rest of the year, Hopefully it all works out that way.

That's enough words though, how about some more pics from the car's few travels this year.

[Flicktitty]

a few more pics.






How the car is "currently" sitting in the garage.


Worked on the car some this past weekend, Pulled the radiator,fans out of the car,as well as the upper waterneck as i plan on modifying that some more then i already have.
Also removed the power steering pump as the old one was getting quite loud. Also installed a K&N 3/4" Breaher on top of the valve cover as i've always just had it open and wanted to clean it up some.
Some pics -

Placed an order last weekend for the Flex-A-Lite 420 series electric fans. Which showed up yesterday, Big thanks to FRSport.

Also picked up a DIF PWM Fan controller from Phase2motortrend just waiting for that to show up! Also got the new power steering pump picked up so that will have to be installed this weekend, Also got lucky and found a used S13 fuel sending unit that will get installed shortly along with the new Deatchwerks DW300 fuel pump. Will be placing an order this weekend for a TRD thermostat which should finish off the cooling system.

I've had my Precision 6265 up for sale for a couple weeks finally found a buyer, so i went ahead and purchased a new Precision 6266 .68A/r T4 flange with the Anti-Surge and getting it polished and coated just like the old one was. Looking forward to that! Big thanks to Sound Performance for giving me a KILLER deal on it. 2012 is really starting to look like a big year.

Been on the prowl for a while for some new wheels....think i found some... time will tell.

[SonnyBoy]

[Flicktitty]

And how she sleeps.

[epson1]

i guess im trying to figure out this swap. single turbo 2jz and glowshit gauges? ok...leaving the diagnostic port on it? uhhh sure... oem IAC that are prone to breaking? ok...

None of it makes sense. seems like alot of corners were and it was built because it was a 2jz and a girl drives it...

what are you talking about?

The diagnostic port is still useable, so why wouldn't you want to keep it? Glowshift gauges aren't THAT bad, we will see how accurate they are once the AEM goes in the car. Where did i say anything about the IAC?

[kalypso123]

AC not hooked up?

[ReaperBJJ]

This car is what made me remember that 15"s can still look cool with meatier tires.

+1 for glowshift gauges, This is a sick build, reminds me of this jz 240 vs a gtr, do tires ever really help you? lmao

No sir, There is no "easy" way to delete the A/c compressor without making custom bracketry to keep the power steering pump working, So i will be looking at removing the A/c at a later time.

Thanks man! not sure how much longer this car will be on 15's as we are looking at some 17" VS-XX

Haha, yeah that cars pretty damn impressive. Believe it or not this car has virtually 0 traction issues as long as it isn't below 40 degrees out. We haven't tried to activly lauch the car heavily (yet) but from 10-15mph rolls it is fine.

Went to the Chicago autoshow yesterday morning! here are some of the pics we took.









coolest car at the show.



Nissan had this in there booth, girlfriend posed with it.


Took the turbo off Off to the new owner it goes.

[Run NoeL, Run!]

does it still lock in when you release it? or do you just pull it and drop it back down
and can you remove it again? if needed

It's like any other "Drift button" You take off the factory e-brake boot and remove the spring(s) from the button and then slide this over the existing button.
When the drift button is pushed in it will leave the handbrake inactivated even when pulled up, when the drift button is pulled out the handbrake will lock when pulled up.

But since this car isn't built for "drifting" i just simply slid this button ove the existing ebrake button, purly for astetic reasons.

The manifold i have is a Treadstone, i've seen a ton of off the shelf T4 manifolds fit. look at a XS-Power or something like that. Just brace it and clean out the slag.

Fwiw, there's a thread on supraforums with a cleaned up treadstone manifold making 748+ whp...

http://www.supraforums.com/forum/sho...-testing-today


I went with the $140 eBay special, so we will see how long it lasts...

* is that a tial 50 mm bov on the hot side piping?

I had to switch over to the cold side on my swap bc of compressor surge...

[Flicktitty]

yeah it's a Tial 50mm on the hot side, i might be switching it over to the cold side too. We will see what happens still with it.

SP's modded cast manifold is pretty badass, when i pick up my new turbo from them in a week or so i'm gonna have a talk with them

[Black R]

I just went back and read through your whole thread: idk how I missed it before!

Anyway, damn you have caught a lot of flack for doing this swap - I can't believe it...

Wait till you guys see my shit rocket - just imagine flick's, without any of the niceties he's performed.
But hey, back in 2009 when I got the swap in and driving, it just wasn't as popular amirite?

Keep up the build bro.

I know you'll be upgrading injectors soon, so you know who to keep in mind...

haha, yeah there has been a pretty big amount of hate with this build, not sure if it's cause of the auto? or the fact this car isn't designed to drift, or if it isn't "Baller" enough like some peoples setups or what, but it wasen't made to make everyone happy just 2 people and the car has done that very well thus far.

[600SX]

It makes me happy...

[shiftdrift]

fuck....i'm a little late on the turbo, i wanted it
