Alex Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 The Main O2 has to go back into the exhaust. The other plugs should be just tied out of the way..i left the VSV's attached as I thinik ODBII gives errors with them off. Not sure about your ODBI ECU.

mikeyb10supra Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Sorry for the Hijack Dibbs Alex how hard is it to fit a single kit by yourself...this is something I am considering when I move flats and have a bit more space in my car port?? obviously I will need to get the thing mapped etc which I cant do....but in terms of fitting the turbo, injectors, fuel anciliries etc, is this hard for a fairly confident individual??

I got a tall friend to help with long arms So I managed to skip all the nasty parts of the build... It's much easier that way It also helped immeasureably that the same person had had a sequential system off and on a few times and fitted a Single kit to his own car....and then written an FAQ... Ian C - wrench monkey and mapper extraordinaire! But it is fairly straight forward once you get going - just needs strength and bloody mindedness.

Branners Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 JohnK also did a full write up on his self install on a UK spec. It can be done but you need to know what you are doing with a spanner. I wouldnt even contemplate it, but then I wont even fit my import spec rear clusters cos I could toss it up. JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veilsideTT Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Wayne, if your ODBI, like me, then just tape the spare connectors up and tie them away in a safe place. Heater Hose Mod is here, this is for LHD but I'm sure you will get the gist of it. TBH i managed to use my existing hoses buy cutting them to the correct length (a quick fix until you can get some new hose) ABSXXX IAC hose can do one of two things. If you have the nipple on your air intake pipe then you can route the hose to this. If not, then get a K&N filter on the IAC instead (this is how mine is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supradibbs Posted December 3, 2005 Author Share Posted December 3, 2005 has anyone got pics of this mod for a J spec appears to be diffrent:help: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeT Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 has anyone got pics of this mod for a J spec appears to be diffrent:help: the jap spec is no different, its just that on supraforums they are left hand drive so the heater hoses go through the firewall at a different point. just connect it up the best you can with the hoses you have. just make sure its not too close to the downpipe. iirc there is a metal pipe with a dogleg in it? turn this upside down and use what rubber hoses are left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB Its on my website, If you are competent with the spanners, logical and have the time it isnt that bad a job. I have quite a few pics from the job (more than on my site) so if anyone needs a pic of something in particular drop me a PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
