Ive talked with Graham about it. its the guy that made the 1jz-gte VVti conversion. Theres alot others that has done this on different forums thou its not complete topics or missing pictures, but to make it easy i can list a few things that u have to do. * 1jz-gte or vvti engine. Gearbox: theres 3 different u can use i think. its the 6speed getrag one that is verry expensive and hard to source of what i know. and theres the r154 and another one. * U will need an 3rd part ecu i think something like autronic, microtech, motec would work nice, surely it depends on what the mappers around u can program. * Custommade engine mounts is a good investment if u want a good weightbalance of the car. otherways u can use the soarer mounts i think. * Intercoolerpiping, exhaust. * mate the propshaft with another one depending on gearbox. Tbh the tricky part is the electrics, the wiring, u will need some wiring diagrams, and some kind of basic knowledge. And its not a walk on roses making these 2 ecu working together, ur dash will look like a disco :) Some guy just switched the fuelpump for a different one and that made the fuellight start blinking, seems the is200ecu doesnt like other parts :) Ive havnt digged so deep into this conversion yet but i know that it will take alot effort and beating to get it working. Thou as Graham and the others say *the electrics, Wiring etc is the fuzzy part* thou im gonna take a really deep look into the diagrams one day to see how the is200 wiring looks since its like 5 computers wired together it might be fun :) (ive heard theres like 18 pages)

Im from Uddevalla about 8 miles north of Gothenburg. what now Mat?

Well um ive got the awnser ive needed about the conversion. anyway as ive said ill post some pics, we got the new wheels on today pretty bad picture thou. anyway next step will be eyelids and lowering springs.

Hey again guys. ive just wondered if anyone of u know any good 1jz-gte conversion topic where i can read about it. Thx :) Btw picking up my rims tomorrow, its the original lexus 17" rims but ive got em coated in black with a little touch of metallic :) and later i might paint the brake callipers in gold ill post some pics when im done :)

Im gonna use an recirculating one. dont wanna try the ssqv im using something different :P

Ye precisly :) that draw is my idea of how to make it work :) and i will put the Bov pretty close to the s/c so the vaccumline dont have to be stretched that far. but as ive know ive been thinking about that the bov might work kinda failsafe that if the vacumline would break then the BOV have to open. so when theres boost it presses the bov closed and when theres vaccum it just lets go and opens. simple as that. but still i dont really know how the mecanics works inside an bov. But still i think this is really efective :)

Ok thanks :) Cannot see thou why not using an vacum controled that is operated by the vacum created in the trottle when its closed. :P Iknow alot using this method or buit in bypass valves in the s/c , its only about not getting kompressor surge right ? but anyway thanks and ill check it out :)

Might be true as u say. mabey i could get my hands on the inlet manifold with the trottle controled bypass gate. But still with an bypass valve suited for s/c i think it should work , but as u say its a bit risky.

Ok. Ive spoken with an company here in sweden that sells compressors that looks quite the same as urs. its an m62 eaton. Thou something i need is the size of the pulleys, the one on the compressor and the one ive have to switch can anyone help me :P Except for that im just waiting for my sallary to arrive before ive order one of these :)

Thanks man :) ill be checking around for an eaton mp62 with built in bypassvalve this night i think and hopefully order one tomorrow :) then the fun begins :)

Hey again! About the supercharger, think im ordering an eaton m62 tomorrow if my wallet allow that. and except for that what is the inlet part called on ur tte charger the one with an trottle controled valve, But as i saw something on an eaton suppliers homepage that they sell some vaccum controlled bypassvalves that close the bypass while accelerating and that and opens it when idle. might work dunno thou how efective that is against the tte one. And u guys think ill be ok with only an FCD connected to the ecu? lets hope the project starts soon :)

Im gonna try get in touch with Bemani.ch Thanks for the help guys. anyway i live in sweden, not sure how many that got this conversion done here. But if i could get my hands on the TTE or something smillar that would be super. If not i think im gonna scrap something else together. Thou i was talking with the local tuning shop about making that kind of conversion, they had some nice ideas, thou im not always that kind of guy that let someon else do the work since i wanna be the one doing it. Last year i was thinking about the is200supra conversion but the trannys are hard to get and they are pricey aswell. Im never gonna get an s/c or t/c conversion leagal here in sweden but who cares. Anyway how come some of the guys got alot more hp on their turbocharged ones then the S/c ones is cus of the conrods and piston that cant handle that kind of substained boost. How much can the engine handle without breaking?

Ok rob :) Any do you know how much u can get out of the 1G-FE with sc, is it possible to get 210hp without forged internals. where can i find an used tte sc kit?

Hey guys! As Ive seen you all getting s/c I wanna do it to :) But my question is.. Whats needed? Im aiming for something around 210-220 with stock internals. Ive found an Eaton m45, running it somewhere around 0.45-0.50 boost would prolly be nice. For the rest of the engine, What kinda Ecu shall i use? Bigger Injectors? I need somekind of Blow off valve right since when ur motor braking it revs high? or should i have some kind of vale that is controled from the throttle? Do u have to do anything with the ignition? anything im missing please tell me. Best regards // Robin
