97 M3 2JZ n/a single turbo build.

Postby johnson507 » Sat Jun 12, 2010 8:58 pm

I've decided to go ahead and take the 3.2L M3 engine out and swap it out with a 2jzge, going with a 5 speed set up later, just to get the car running tho I'm using the auto that came with the engine for now, engine came with hardness and ECU, engine will be rebuilt, even tho' this engine was pulled from a running car, I'm going to build this thing for some big boost :twisted: , injectors and turbo manifold coming soon with a
GReddy eManage ultimate for the ecu. And a 1.3mm head gasket upgrade.
Will post more when it starts being rebuilt.
As soon as I get the engine in, I'll be having the new drive shaft made.
The M3 engine and tranny is now forsale aswell.

Went with the 2jz for the stronger bottom end over the 1jz.
More coming soon.

Engine is out! :twisted: Engine is sold, it's going to a good home, it's being rebuilt and put in a nice e30.

O anyone have a used t-4 v-band turbo they wanna sell me?
I'm looking for a used one for now just to get the engine in and running, while I save up for the big turbo.
Also looking for a intercooler.
