monsween Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 wow where are you getting your gearboxes from. Tripple or quadruple that price for a 6 speed mate. £2000 at best for bare box I think. Then you need clutch. Keep on dreaming tho. We see a lot of threads like this (na tuning wise) and strangely enough never see the cars again. Wonder why Was just thinking that. Also your claims that a 500+ HP car wheelspins and gets no traction. Bigger/Wider tyres help that, im sure JP/Lee/Jamesy etc etc etc dont have much issue driving theirs.

Neil-NA Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 You are looking at 5k+ to do a full TT6 conversion mate (inc brakes etc) and thats without labour an using unknown quality 2nd hand parts. Sounds like your in the same boat as me and a few other who dont want to go turbo. i will see what i can get for 5-10k, 250-270hp is my aim, will i get there - probably not.

Neil-NA Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I understand you want to do somehting different but to me that makes absolutely no sense Meaning that its a project for the next few years but i can see myself gettin bored and moving on, dont know if its because i havnt had chance to drive the car properly this year or what, i'm just in one of those moods i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monsween Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 How about this for somehting different. Spend your 5-10k on a tt engine + box and put it in something weird like..... an opel manta or something (first car off the top of my head lol) PS sorry for the thread digression Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for bringing them back up, definately ITRB's, would love to go 3.4 but not with my budget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 ahhh 3.4 stroker, now on a serious note would this be a good route if going na-t? or tt pistons the best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Hi peeps, just a random one: what can be done to a 2JZGE engine (non turbo) whats the most power you can get out of it (without any turbo etc - just the way it is naturally aspirated) or if anyone has done it? Doing it now, lots about it in my garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Doing it now, lots about it in my garage. Dave has spent more on an NA than toyota did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I understand you want to do somehting different but to me that makes absolutely no sense I'm the same. If you say it's £5-6k to go NA-TT then I don't see how to justify spending up to £10k to get a slightly more powerful N/A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_k Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Throttle bodied supra would be awsome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil-NA Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I'm the same. If you say it's £5-6k to go NA-TT then I don't see how to justify spending up to £10k to get a slightly more powerful N/A. For me its simple really, i could go down the TT route and then have the same as everyone else, turn up to meets (yeah right) and have 'just another supra TT'. Or spend a bit of cash on an NA and have something a bit different for people to talk about/ give me abuse over. And no need to worry i wouldn't go to the trouble of boring you all with a project thread as i know their is no interest in NA's I would budget 5-10k depending on how far i wanted to go or how long boredom takes to set in, i have not a clue with what i'm doing mechanical or electric wise so more than half of the budget would get taken up with labour, but thats just something i would have to put up with If i dont spend money on the car i will on spend it on push bikes instead and seeing as ive spent over 50k in the last 15 years on them i think its time to do something with cars lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
