Billet main caps you can argue what power levels you need them , as you are already removing the OEM caps it was just something to look into I would go with the advise of your engine builder , I am sure budget is a factor as most of us can only afford to do it right and do it once; to mitigate risk and evade the possibility of a catastrophic build, I would only choose an experienced JZ builder with a proven track record who builds these engines on a regular basis Once you have your short list , I would ring a few customers and verify their engine is reliable , see if you can learn any lessons from their experience, caveats

Mahle pistons seem to be the piston of choice by a few traders on here , I also like the Tomei pistons and H beam Rods, they come with L19 ARP rod bolts, not $$$, not too sure why Tomei is not used more regularly HKS and Tomei cams where on the cam doctor machine , both spot on ; I would get the cheaper of the two I would also look into Billet main caps , might be worth doing especially if you get them cheap during a black Friday sale Or Do Luck do a nice billet girdle and main caps for reasonable money http://www.rhdjapan.com/do-luck-billet-main-caps-with-billet-ladder-frame-supra-2jz-gte.html

thanks Will try speedflow , see what they suggest ; asked a few companies , they keep pawning me off to one another

Hi The reflow connector on the FRP is fixed, you cannot remove or change (M14X1.5); I got a M14X1.5 female to AN6 Male , the fitting does not go all the way up the reflow connector Question: To ensure a good seal , use PTFE tape? or a Dowty seal maybe

LOL I wish I could say I seen it all now but I am afraid there is yet more to come

He got back the FPR setting is indeed incorrect , should be "Manifold Pressure Referenced" not Ambient Said it wont cause an issue, will see what MoTec support says
-
I know , this is what I have to deal with! I just confronted him now , My mapper said he set them that way as it is smoother even though I requested they are set sequentially , had a lengthy conversation pre and post mapping about it; He told me he set them up in sequential
-
Also noticed My Sytec FPR he installed is "Manifold Pressure Referenced" not Ambient Not too sure of the implications of this

Thanks for the help , hopefully Dave gets back @Wez , my mapper did not plumb in the EGBV, said probably do not need it I just wanted my car back at that stage! To be honest I am fed up dealing with him , what to get a new mapper , Dave or Cody maybe EGBV This allows some exhaust gas to bypass the EGCV and join the output of the first turbo. It serves two purposes - one, it prespools the second turbo by allowing some exhaust gas flow through it. Two, it controls the amount of exhaust gas going through the first turbo in much the same way as a wastegate - therefore controlling the maximum boost pressure generated by #1 turbo.

Dont get caught out by the SPEC X , some traders will lead you to believe you are getting a Spec X and charge you accordingly when its a Spec S http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?328829-OsGiken-Spec-x&highlight=OsGiken+Spec Super Lock LSD – Spec X For vehicles that are heavily modified or are participating in specific forms of motorsports, we offer the Spec-X LSD. The custom order Spec-X is available in 1-way, 1.5-way, and 2-way configurations and can be made with custom cam angles, lock timing, and initial torque settings. Typically on a SPEC-X differential there is dialog between myself(OsGiken) and the end user (you) prior to ship out. ALL of our differentials have SPEC-S or US-SPEC Laser etched on the case as standard. SPEC-X Refers a service in which I disassemble a unit and adjust the settings for the customer’s power level/grip. The Custom Tune (SPEC-X) service is at additional cost to your LSD. If you did pay for this service I would recommend reaching out to your dealer again as I do not have record of tuning a Supra diff in the past few months.

I was doing more digging last night in Sequential operation , By no means am I expert in MoTec calibration but it just does not look right to me. the Duty cycle tables control the valves, the Duty cycle tables to me run the Turbos in Parallel Trying to engage with Dave Rowe again, I think Fraser is still in China , even if I can at least get an hour of Dave's time to advise me, if he would be interested in working with the car Hopefully MoTec will respond http://www.motec.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=3412&sid=b19f7fe2eeeaaab8963c6b417a5cabbd

Thats my understanding too, I think the Diagnostic values are not set to correspond to this sensor (default settings); throwing an error

Thanks Wez, I followed up with Motec and John Reed who built the firmware Just on a side note My mapper keeps reiterating "Your partner package cant do a proper full scale calibration for the map sensor as it only has 2 load sites" John said , Good question! Reason I just try and figure out things myself Want to get over to Dave Rowe at some stage , probably cheaper just to fly him over (Problem is trying to get in contact with him, tried for 2-3 weeks, phone, email, facebook ) ; I know a very nice guy over here Martin Tracey with a Dyno room , 30 mins from the Airport

My Mapper said to ignore the warnings , not much help ! Chasing him 4 months now to wire in the traction control , already paid for it too ! Was talking to the US Supra forum guys , posted the above and they where very helpful , as you said Wez easy fix ; not too sure why it is so difficult for my mapper to fix it First, Change the inlet manifold pressure sensor low voltage setting to 0.050V Looking at it myself , I suppose we have 2 options , increase the Diagnostic low limit (Current inlet manifold pressure sensor low voltage setting is 1.513)or as you suggest the inlet manifold pressure sensor low voltage setting ; are there any implications for lowering the inlet manifold pressure sensor low voltage setting ? Current setting Proposed New setting Second; With the key "ON" and ECU powered, press "Q" while on the throttle postion sensor offset value. Make sure you are not touching the gas pedal. Thrid, Under the same settings as above for the key and ECU, select "Scale" value below "Offset". Press the pedal to the floor and then press "Q" again to set this value.

Thanks! Just got a sensor off Dave Rowe , Will install and setup the Bosch FRP this weekend ; will need some time on the dyno with the sensor , and still waiting on mapper to wire in traction control In the notes on the firmware , fuel pressure sensor was highly recommended ; not too sure why it was not installed initially as he had free reign Looking at the map Fuel Pressure default is set at 325Kpa , taught this would be set closer to 280Kpa as I am running off OEM pressure? Toyota GTE Service Specs... Fuel Pressure at Idle w/vacuum hose disconnected is 33-40psi (2.3 - 2.8 kgf/cm) Fuel Pressure at Idle w/vacuum hose connected is 24-31psi (1.7 - 2.2 kgf/cm) Warnings I also have some warnings , Motec said to resolve them , Mapper said to basically ignore ; stuck between a rock and a hard place Motec These are two faults that I would resolve, as they provide crucial information on the engines operation to the M1. The Translation Minimum for the Inlet Manifold Pressure Sensor is caused by the voltage signal being received being below the range of the translation table, this means that the M1 is not receiving a valid Manifold Pressure value, and could be calculating the engines load incorrectly. This will also potentially effect the rest of the engines operating range if the whole of the scale is wrong. The Throttle Position Sensor Diagnostic is caused by the 0% of the pedal not being set, this should be resolved as well as it can effect the engines idle operation, amongst other areas. Mapper Thats manifold warning dose not mean there is a problem it just means that the value went outside the calibration pints but as the sensor is setup up linear its fine. The other warnings are not a problem either. Well then you need to get a full scale calibration for the map sensor which is not available. If the warning is yellow it dose not affect the calibration. If its red there is a problem. Your partner package cant do a proper full scale calibration for the map sensor as it only has 2 load sites as per the John Read package. There is nothing wring with the throttle being closed at 0%. That guy is being pedantic. Throttle Setup - I am complete OEM Interesting to compare settings MAP Sensor -- I am running a non JZA80 OEM Denso Map sensor (need to get model number) Error -- Translation Minimum 4 Voltage is below the minimum site on the Calibration Axis. Not too sure why I am running a Sensor requiring manual setup as opposed to running a GM, Bosch, Denso sensors preset in the drop down

Said I would keep this up to date Fuel Pressure The ECU when fitted with a fuel pressure sensor, fuel pressure is part of the model and will be compensated for. Trying to weight in cost versus benefit, is it worth fitting a sensor and associated costs to take advantage of this feature? I did ask the Mapper to install what he recommended but this was never suggested Trying to research a linear FPR , what companies make them , some general info Motec Forum: Fuel pressure data is a huge part of how the ECU will calculate the final injector duty. With a true VE fueling strategy I feel a fuel pressure sensor is a must., the use of fuel pressure in the VE model is a major part of the fuel volume calculation, as well as the Injector Differential Pressure calculation, so if you do not have a FP sensor, you need to make sure that the Fuel Pressure Default value is correct, and that the type of FPR that you are using is specified. If you use an FPR that has a non linear relation to the change in manifold pressure, I definitely would have a FP sensor installed. Another area that catches people out is the Default value for the Fuel Temp, this can greatly effect the Lambda value if it is incorrect.

Just for anybody else who wants to install one To fit the Reg, ***Buy /Borrow a Circlip pliers with the ability to fit them Internal Remove the two E-Clips from the Adapter , Oil regulator seals, Insert the Regulator until it clicks into place, You only need to refit the retaining e-clip but you can fit the second clip , incase you ever needed it again Still between two minds to remove the M14 IN male fittings ,they are on there tight, not too keen on using a vice to hold it !! the OUT fitting is cast in there , cylinder runs though it , I think you will damage it trying to remove the OUT fitting

Would you get away with M14X1.5 to dash 6, I dont think it will seal?
