Last month I started my NA-T conversion on my 1993 GS300 with 234,000 miles on it. It took me about 2 hours to convert and about another 2 hours to bolt up the turbo, downpipe, and temporary intake piping. I am using SSAUTOCROME manifold and I will have to clock the flange to clear the distributor. My turbo is a GT67.
Total cost including turbo was $1,200.

First start by removing intake system up to TB
http://www.supracharged.com/gs300/turbo/begin.jpg
Then remove the heat shield off the exhaust manifold and remove the manifold. Don't forget to disconnect the O2 sensors. Also the lower 2 bolt flange just under the 1st cat. There is also a bracket that bolts to the transmission that will probably need to be removed. The exhaust manifold and cat can be removed through the engine bay. This took me about 30 minutes.

Now for under the car.
Remove plastic dust cover from under the car. You will see the lower portion of the oil pan. The oil pan has two sections. An upper aluminum section and a lower steel sump. You will need to remove the steel sump pan. This can be done without lifting the motor. There is the alterator harness that runs between the pan and the crossmember. There are plastic clips that hold this in place as well as a 12mm(socket size) bolt on top of the crossmember that holds the harness in place. This is where a gear wrench would be nice. Took me 5 minutes just to remove the bolt. Once the harness was out of the way, I needed a couple of short wobbly joints to get the rear bolts. There are 2 that are difficult to get, be carefull not to strip the heads. This part took me 20 minutes(with help of a grease pit).
Once the pan is off, remove the oil pickup tube and the splash shield.

If you notice on the picture above, just to the left of the crank shaft there is a recess in the pan that is a bad example of saturn. This is where the return fitting will go. On the outside, the hole will be directly below the distributor and somewhat behind the lower radiator hose where it connects to the engine. You may want to remove this for easier access to the top part of the oilpan. There are also some tranny lines that will need to be moved out of the way.
There are a few different ways I can think of to do this fitting. You could go with a flanged fitting like on the TT 2JZ's. This would require drilling 3 holes. One bit in the center, and 2 smaller holes in the outer portion to be tapped for bolts to hold the o-ringed flange.
You can drill and tap the big hole for a 1/2 pipe fitting. This is what I did, but I do not reccommend it. I found that the aluminum is much too thin to support the fitting. Although I did get it to work and it could last forever, I just don't trust it. Later I will change it to the next option.
Weld on fitting. Get an aluminum 10AN male adapter, and weld it on to the outside of the oil pan.
Once the fitting is in place, you can connect your return line. Then replace the spash shield, sump, and sump pan.
This took me about 20 minutes.

Oil feed.
The easiest way for the oil feed is through the big bolt that holds on the oil filter housing. This is a 24mm, and you will need a deep socket for when you replace the bolt with the fitting. Cost me less than $4 from parts store.
The end of the bolt will need to be drilled and tapped for your 1/8" NPT to 4 AN adapter. If you don't have a drill press with a vise and some good drill bits and you feel like drilling through over an inch of steel, than I reccommend buying the pre tapped bolt from the dealer. I guess any 98-newer 2JZ model has the bolt already tapped and ready to go. It took me about 20 minutes to drill and tap for the fitting.

Now, after this, you are kinda on your own. It took me just under 2 hours to get this far.
Depending on your turbo manifold, turbo, and exhaust, the remaining time can vary. It took me 2 more hours to bolt on the manifold, the turbo, downpipe, and get it to bolt up to the stock exhaust system. After 4 hours I was had my car running again but now with a turbo.
Happy boosting.

OR ENGINE MANAGEMENT???
At 6 psi you don't need a boost controller, or a engine management. And yes, that turbo is pretty big for stock fuel system....but not yet.
$1200 included the wastegate, and I ran like this for 2 weeks, until I put in some 440cc injectors.
Now, I have 440cc injectors and a MAP-ECU for fuel control. I have a boost controller, just not hooked up yet, and I probably won't use it until I put in my GTE bottem end, as I will just replace my 6psi spring with a 10 psi spring.
I can't run 10 psi until I build my IC system which won't be until after christmas.
My total cost for running 10psi is:
$1200 initial cost plus another $1100 for:
intercooler +pipes and connectors
MAP-ECU
3" exhaust
FPR
fuel pump.
Total investment of $2300 to run 10psi with stock compression. I am not including my wideband in this cost, as it was purchased for another project, so I can share.

Rods and crank are the same. Pistons on the GTE are lower compression and have been treated...although I am not sure if the GE pistons have been treated.

This may be a dumb question, but what does it mean to "clock the flange" around the distributor? Do you have to break it off, then re-weld it at a different angle?
SuperRunner
12-09-2005, 05:30 PM
Welll, cut it off. The SSautocrome manifold is designed for VVTI, so the distributor is in the way. You will need to cut off the flange, rotate it slightly, and you will clear the distributor. I also have another problem that supra and SC guys don't, and that is my ABS unit. I may have to point it up slighty as well to clear the ABS.

Just because it is greasy underthere doesn't mean it is ghetto either...it just means it is greasy, and dirty. But yes, It would have been nice to take it and pressure wash it first. Would have made my life easier.
Reason I didn't clean it though is simple. I only had 5 hours from the time I pulled it into my shop before I had to drive away. Also, next month I will be droppingin a GTE bottem end, clocking the manifold to clear the distributor, SP built auto, 3800 stall, and my IC system. Then it will be cleaned and shiny just how everyone likes to see it.

All new parts...except for the injectors and the MAP-ECU. 440cc injectors are just temporary until I get some 550's. Engine has almost 236,000 miles on it, and I want to see how much it will take to kill it. After I get the IC done, I will probably put on some Meth injection, run some race gas, and see if I can get 12psi without blowing the motor and tranny. Then I will put in my GTE bottem end.

It is a high pressure high temp steel braided line I got from a hydraulic hose place called EVCO.

Ahh, I see your point. I think I mentioned on this post that I will be putting in a GTE bottem end, not sure, I got a couple threads going about this on different forums.
So in January or February I will be putting in the GTE bottem end(rebuilt) and I will go through the head and replace seals, and my brother in law is the port and polish master at a local machine shop, so I get my head work done for free. I have an SP built auto and a 3800 stall. I am looking to get 600rwhp. Only thing that I am really concerned about is the 8" rear end. I have blown out several 8" truck rear ends in my 4runner with only 280rwhp on a 7M.

Research. I did about 8 hours of research before I started. All I had on my way home from work was the turbo, and manifold. On the way home, I stopped by evco and I had created a parts list, to make sure I got all the right stuff, then stopped by a tool place to pick up my needed taps and drill bits. I went home and started.
A couple things that really helped...air compressor, metal chop saw, welder, and the biggest help of all was my pit. I have a 5 foot deep pit in my garage. I don't think I could have done it as fast without that.

yea we are doing mine at south coast acura the lift helps. the queston i have is that i bought the wrong size turbo for the manifold i have the same setup as you. btw the ssautochrome stuff fits great even the wastegate dump pipe cleared the lower control arm so you were talking about cutting the flange and turning it and rewelding. well i bought a flange from turbo city and was wondering if it would ruin the integrity of the manifold if i had a shop cut and reweld the new flange on. the new flange is not shiny chrome like the manifold though what do you guys think and how much should it cost if you do recomend me taking it to a shop

The 1JZ head DOES NOT flow better than the 2J, and that has been proven.
The 2JZGE does flow slightly better than the 2JZGTE, but not much.
The 2JZGE MIGHT have better potential for better flow, but that has not been proven completely, and is somewhat hard to do so.
As for this project, I had a failed oil pump, and the car has sat ever since.

Here is my engine harness. Notice the bundle of wires. All the stuff I removed from the harness. Mostly for the auto which are no longer needed. Then I separated things out like tailshaft wires, igntion, injectors, and sensors. Wiring will be nice and clean on this.

Finally had time to get the motor back in the car. Still a bit more work to finish up, but I was really curious about the custom ignition system, and if it would work.
Sure enough it did. I synced the trigger to TDC(I should probably use a degree wheel), then gave it a little starter fluid, and VROOM fired right up. WOHOO!!!
I hope to get it drivable by this weekend, man I can't wait.

Wires are still hanging out for the ignition until I verify that everything works.

Well, car ran good for a day. I didn't think welding on the head would cause the head to warp as bad as it did, so now I got BHG. Oh well. Also there was some damage on #6 from the previous owner. I had noticed slight damage, but the BHG cleaned things up, and it became apparent that this motor won't be good for my HP goals.
Also, I have been wondering what to do with this spare motor I have sitting here. I mean, it has JE forged pistons, shot peened and beam released rods with ARP 2000 bolts. I really didn't want to use it because I wanted high compression. Guess I will have to deal with the 8.5:1, which totally SUCKS!!!!
Motor will go in sometime this week and should be ready for the dyno by the weekend.
Here is my 3 1/2" downpipe that then expands to a 4" tailpipe

Car made 410rwhp at 13psi and only up to 5600rpm due to an ignition problem.
Fixed the ignition and will be scheduling more dyno time this weekend.

Guess I had better update this thread.
Car made 916rwhp at 30psi on a 74mm turbo through the R154.
I have now ditched the manual and decided to go powerglide for an all out drag car.

I have now gutted the car and have installed a cage. I am about a month away from having this thing on the road again.
