^^^wow, good to hear. No im getting mine done hopefully soon by my friends friend(german guy). Lol. I have a second guy from md, i can send u info if interested.

Deftec · 04-19-2012, 09:25 PM

Really all I want is rebuild specs/info or a rebuild manual haha. I don't want to send it off to get rebuilt as I can do most of that myself, just need the damn specs.

CDD200 · 04-20-2012, 04:40 AM

I did my r154 it was not that bad, I printed a fsm from online for mk3, also bought a fsm on cd for a mk4 off eBay, I will try to find the site info

2muchboost · 04-20-2012, 01:23 PM

I did not buy the Dakota setup as I know someone running one of the MC VSS units and said there was no modification needed. I am hoping he is right because the VSS is already at my house

I believe BabillaRacing (Omar) also used the VSS unit and he is one of the most knowledgeable 240-2jz guys.

I guess I got lucky because I purchased my MC rebild parts about 4 months ago and everything was available. Waiting for NY winter to pull the trigger on the trans rebuild and serious power adders.

FYI I bought the $200 ebay swap kit just for Schnitz and Giggles and my builder (M&S Performance) said that the kit was actually good quality for the price.

2muchboost · 04-20-2012, 01:24 PM

BTW....anyone running A/C with their setup/swap? I am trying to figure out how much of a headache it will be to get the system up and running. I am looking to keep it because I will be using the car as a daily....most of the time.

Tx in advance.

BadazzSr20 · 04-21-2012, 10:26 PM

hey i need some help here i got a 92 trans mount for my s14 1jz swap. for some reason the mount wont bolt on the trans. it fits on the cross member fine but i cant get all the hole to line up on the trans

am i using the wrong mount or what i dont no whats going on but i can get 2 to line up on 1 side but the other side is off. any tricks i need to know to make this mount line up with the trans?

florante rea · 04-22-2012, 02:42 PM

What mounts do you have?

TrueFreshness · 04-22-2012, 03:16 PM

For the intercooler, Could I just get the godspeed spec V or would I need to get the godspeed twin turbo intercooler if im keeping the factory twins for a while?

19kouki98 · 04-22-2012, 06:53 PM

I have a r154 transmission for sale if anyone is interested, pm me. I know wrong section but I figured there might be some interest here

waste_of_space · 04-23-2012, 04:27 PM

Anyone else using turbodave/TDF mounts?
The kit I got from him (which look suspiciously identical to the ruckus/zero lift mounts) won't clear my sway bar. Where are you guys getting sway bar spacers made/does anyone on here have a set for sale?

florante rea · 04-23-2012, 04:52 PM

Probably the soarer and 7m are different and it wouln't line up. If u need a tranny mount i have a set. I can send u pics. Im getting a newer one so i dont need my old one. Just pm.

1jzs14 · 04-23-2012, 08:51 PM

my sway bar is close but work
i turned the key today to see if i did the five speed swap right and the motor just started wasnt even expecting that to happen

i do have one question on the 1j swaps does your fuel pump
constenly go or does it prime and stop?

BigPawr · 04-23-2012, 09:17 PM

I'm debating on what motor mount bushings to use. I'm going to run the stock aristo engine brackets and modify my crossmember to put it in good position. Anybody doing something similar and what bushings did you use? I'd like to use either stock Supra TT mounts, or something like a urethane, delrin, or solid aluminum mounts. Would even look into making stock nismo mounts work. Didn't know if anyone had experiances with any of these options and what they liked and didn't like. Also looking at best cost effectiveness as well.

im going today to get a mount from Toyota im going to try a 93 none turbo 5speed mount. from what i understand this is the mount i need. if this mount doesnt work then ill have to try the sc300 trans mount i hope this 93 mount works.

the 93 mount is the v looking one i have the U closed one right now. the mount i have right now is so close to lining up its not even funny so i hope this new mount will work out for me ill let you all know.

waste_of_space · 04-24-2012, 07:55 PM

Getting closer (:

BadazzSr20 · 04-24-2012, 09:27 PM

SO AM I!!!!!! LOL SO CLOSE I CAN TASTE IT!!!!

i also would like to know are you guys useing the 1jz stock temp sensor or a Nissan sensor for stock gauge?

also wanted to know what temps are to be expected from my s14 1jz swap?

ill be using the flex-A-lights with a mish...rad?

my sr20det temps with this setup was 180 max with the heat in florida getting to the 90s still was pushing 180 max temp even under woot.

is this what my 1j will be at as well or will it be higher?

waste_of_space · 04-25-2012, 07:57 AM

Use the stock sr temp gauge sensor for your cluster temp gauge to function.

bullfrogg0 · 04-25-2012, 08:20 AM

Stock twin turbo 2jz's run 180, my n/a swapped into my runs 160 with a TRD thermostat

Sweet thanks 180 is perfect temp thats what i was hoping for.

1jzs14 · 04-25-2012, 10:33 PM

My 1j hovers around 190~200 is that bad I have two 12" inch fans and also a mishimoto radiator should I look at a lower temp thermo?

wouldn't be a bad idea. I think mine ran like 190-200 (sometimes 208ish) if it was hot or i was in traffic, upgraded to FAL fans and TRD Thermostat this year hoping for some better results.

1jzs14 · 04-26-2012, 11:54 AM

who sells the trd thermo?/where can i get one

aled · 04-26-2012, 11:59 AM

I have a Griffin 3 core radiator and FAL fans.
In Las Vegas last August, the engine never got above 200 degrees and it was 110+ outside.

Coolant Mix: Water and Water Wetter only.

The only thing I hate about my cooling setup is having to run pusher fans. I'm contemplating modifying my core support to make room for puller fans. Has anyone done this?

Deftec · 04-26-2012, 08:19 PM

I'm running pushers also and my car runs at 180. Haven't had any issues other than sometimes the fans draw too much and blow the fuse, fortunately I've been able to catch it before it's too late lol.

jamg · 04-28-2012, 01:39 AM

thinking about doing a 1j swap..

now i just need to do the research.
