MarkR Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Right, I've decided to take the plunge and am starting to buy all the parts required for my small single conversion. I've listed the parts that I already have (collected over the last few years), and will list what I'm planning to buy below. As usual, advice would be great. Solaris S6GP ECU HKS turbo kit from T04Z with GT35R turbo Power Enterprise 650cc Injectors Bosch Fuel pump AEM Water injection SSQV BOV & weld on flange Defi EGT gauge & link II controller HKS Valcon plus intake cam & controller (VVTI) Blitz LM Front Mounted Intercooler with hardpipes New O2 sensor Innovate Wideband O2 sensor (LM1) and gauge (XD16) RSR EXMag GTII Exhaust Driftworks Oil Cooler 6 speed conversion Solaris Boost solenoid Solaris 3bar Map sensor Anti Surge housing for GT35R Southbend Clutch and new flywheel Turbo Blanket from Kyle TRD gearbox mounts Whifbitz catch tank Unorthodox Racing pulleys Brembo front brakes UK Rear Calipers DBA 4000 disks all round and braided Goodrich hoses Bilstein Shocks & Eibach lowering springs NGK Plugs New Cambelt, Radiator Cap & Thermostat New Top Secret Rear Spoiler APR Carbon fibre radiator cooling plate Leather facelift seats Titan anti-roll bars The guys doing my single conversion are SPC in Horsham. Great bunch with good skills. http://www.spchorsham.com/ Edited September 3, 2009 by MarkR (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Personally with such a small turbo I would opt for a top of the range piggy back, keep the stock cams or opt for UK cams, al on arnouts manifold or similar, maybe even use a GT30 turbo.....thats my opinion though, I am sure many others would disagree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkR Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 Already got the HKS VVTI intake cam... see above. Thanks for the comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nicholas Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Interesting build, you're missing leather seats though Whats the maximum power the tiptronic box can cope with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkR Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 Interesting build, you're missing leather seats though Whats the maximum power the tiptronic box can cope with? haha Shameless hint! The box is the same as the auto box if you believe the serial number, so I reckon up to 500bhp'ish. I'll go 6-speed eventually but for now it'll have to do.

Ryan.G Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Fuel upgrade - undecided Either: From Nic HKS 680cc Injectors HKS Fuel Rail Kit Fuel Lines made up the same as his Aeromotive FPR (sourced seperately) New fuel pump (undecided as to what to get as I'd like one that's not too noisy) OR PHR stage 1 Fuel kit PHR 17.5mm (-10AN) ID high-flow fuel rail Twin Walbro GSS341 in-tank fuel pumps Aeromotive EFI fuel pressure regulator with liquid-filled fuel pressure gauge Fully assembled and pressure tested -6AN Stainless Steel braided fuel lines hi-flow fuel filter Siemens 720cc fuel injectors PHR quick release injector clips and all hardware necessary for a complete install including a sheet of a space-age polymer used to wrap the fuel pumps to prevent magnetic interference. OR Titan Motorsports Fuel Kit Titan Fuel Rail 720cc Injectors Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator Braided lines with Aeroquip fittings Additional Supra Pump (couple with existing pump) Twin in-tank fuel pump kit All connectors, pre-cut wiring, instructions, Relay etc. Or..... Just Set of PE 650cc injectors - cleaned and flow tested Walbro fuel pump For the power you want dont waste money on aftermarket rails, FPR and lines which are just not as reliable as the stock toyota, denso and bosch parts.

MarkR Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 Would I need to do the 12V fuel pump mod as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Would I need to do the 12V fuel pump mod as well? Not if you are running a standalone. The 12v mod is generally considered bad as the pump would continue to run in the event of an accident if there power still going to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Run whatever ECU your mapper can use to control the VVTi...then I assume no need for an HKS VALCON controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Unless you have future plans for a bigger turbo (in the next years), I agree on the fact that you should not waste your money on a complete fuelling kit. Just use drop-in injectors and eventually upgrade the pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just use drop-in injectors and eventually upgrade the pump. You'd definitely need to upgrade the pump on a J-spec, a single Walbro 255Lhr (GSS342) pump would be sufficient.

Wez Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 If when you are ready you are still in the market for a fuel pump you might want to check out the possible group buy http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=156040 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a resonable replacement ECU controlling them 800cc should be fine, also leaves head room to expand later if you want.

Nic Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Cheers Wez... my name has been added. While I'm here... Will PE 800 injectors be too big for this project? The PE 650cc injectors would be adequate, I run HKS 680cc injectors at low 80% duration. You could fit 800cc ones if you perhaps wanted to fit a bigger turbo later.

MarkR Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 I just noticed some for sale which was why I was asking..... Is there any downside? I seem to recall something about idling being affected by larger ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I just noticed some for sale which was why I was asking..... Is there any downside? I seem to recall something about idling being affected by larger ones. Only really affects certain ECU and injector combos. I have seen perfectly fine idles on 1000cc injectors when setup properly. What ECU are you planning on using? The advantage of the PEs is they negate the need for a resistor pack or peak and hold driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee P Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Not if you are running a standalone.

Use the signal wire from the ECU to control the relay then the pump would run like stock but 12v. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When using aftermarket ECUs like the AEM they run constant 12v anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What ECU are you planning on using? The advantage of the PEs is they negate the need for a resistor pack or peak and hold driver. Not sure of the ECU yet. Still undecided as I don't have enough info on the subject. I've searched like mad and have so many conflicting ideas. My issue is the VVTI/auto combo, mixed in with the lack of HKS tuners and new products coming onto the market (RyanG knows of a new ECU that he'll let me know about). The new ProEfi looks awesome but I have yet to find a wealth of info on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new ProEfi looks awesome but I have yet to find a wealth of info on it. VVTI/auto Bit of a nightmare as you have to control the VVTI, drive by wire and the autobox. The AEM can control the VVTI and auto but not sure about DBW. I would go with what ever Ryan suggests Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee P Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Its always a good idea to put a relay in the back for the pump or pumps as they do draw some power and the cabling can get a bit warm if they are running hard for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
