    UPDATE! (8/1/2013)
    Sorry for the long break everyone. I just have not had to much time to put into the car the last few months between summer school, being sent to Japan, and other obligations. Ben Freed hasn't been the very free either, hes been working on some big projects. But now I am back and I have more time. The engine/drive train work should be done around the end of August, and who knows when all the cosmetics will be finished, ie. fender flares, rims, tires, gauges, paint job, interior, ect...

    But the parts are all in, and engine is out.

    lol 6F6F making you remember the good old 1f1f times?


    for brain power and management of the 2JZ you should review the electronics setup:

    SAFC (even NEO - I've used it)+ vein pressure controller and standard piggy back box setup cannot handle more than 550rwhp

    Greddy E-manage Ultimate+ JDM Map only ECU can be tuned to about 550-650 rwhp happily; our RHD single turbo MK4 @ TX mile 2009 ran 172mph on pump fuel and street tires. 515rwhp

    HKS uses a slew of F-con units along with the stock ECU; this setup is best left for HKS authorized dealers to mess with as F-con is a PITA for those noob to it.,


    Are you using a USDM twin turbo ECU? or JDM?

    usdm TT setups require an airflow meter; HKS made a VPC a Vein Pressure Controller (discontinued) to allow usa AFM guys to delete the AFM and run on MAP only. JDM 2jz-gte aristo and supra Mk4 TT oem ECU is MAP sensor only; much easier to tune/setup if the goal is big power.


    I built a 2JZ-GTE from naked block and published how to wire up an aristo 2jz-gte JDM Map only ECU for those who want to put on a large hair dryer and make like Tommy Bahn

    Not sure if you or your swap technician have seen my 2009 wiring thread with spreadsheet but it should help whoever is wiring up the 2J in your e30-

    I miss the 2JZ-GTE engine and Q ship factor of this car.

Does anyone know how much power these things can hold safely? where to get one? and what would be a reasonable price for one?...I don't think I am going to just find a e30 m3 in a junk yard lol.

    Looks good man, what shell is it in? Doesn't look like a e30. And is that 1000 on pump or race gas and what dyno?

    Cant wait to get a picture of my engine bay (:
    Not mine haha, I wish!

    It's in a Toyota Supra, 1994 I believe. I don't know the details, just saw it a car show and had to grab a pic.
