12. Catch can is from Greddy.

Why it is needed? It collects the oil witch goes from valve cover breather to the intake manifold - instead of letting the oil straight to the intake - you connect the catch can between the breather and valve cover, so this way all the oil sits in the can. You get the cleaner A/F mixture.

sorry, a little off-topic, but is oil supposed to come out of the valve cover breather? it was doing it on mine and I thought something was wrong.

Its not what its pure oil - its a mixture of a oil and water (i dont know how this thing is called in english ) this consentrate always gets in the valve cover and its supose to go to the intake manifold, and get burn along with your air/fuel mixture in the cilinders. Under high load, if your engine has some wear, its ussualy some some pressure goes through your piston rings and gets into oilpan, and from there - the pressure lifts up some oil through the oilpan breather canal to the valve cover. So if you are on the boost - the chance of letting some pressure to the oilpan is x2.

Same goes on the naturaly aspirated engine - on high rpms you get the same thing.

Is a boost retarder included in Martins kit, he is gonna need one !

[trd94]

so are you wiring in the emanage your self or having a shop do it as i have one i want to put in my 7afte but i dont want to messup anything

Boost retarder? If you mean Boost controller - then yes, its a Greddy Profec BII.

As for Emanae - im wiring it my self, so i can post wiring diagram.

A boost retarder is a device that retards the engine ignition as the boost enters its treshold, you never used one?
with out it, there can be a chance of preigniton ect. have you never used one???

[trd94]

thanks doGGy the wiring diagram would be great, as far as a boost retarder i have seen them in turbo mustangs and such but i did not know you could use them in a celica , besides the emange should help with that, am i right? doGGy

I *think* the emanage takes care of that.

Why the hell do i need such thing when i have Emanage and i can fully adjust Ignition / Air/fuel maps in any place at any conditions.

Never used such thing - cuz i always try to have as much control over the stock ECU as posible, so instead using somthing like you offered - i ussualy use EMS or somthing like Emanage PiggyBack to have full control.

no megasquirt2? its a full standalone for 1/3 the cost of the EMS.

Ok didnt know it can be used as a stand alone gl then ill be seeing the progress guys

In this case - no MegaSquirt. Ussualy - for all the bigger setups MSQ is the first choise over all the Stand alones. But the problem is what there is only 1 guy who is able to setup MSQ here in Lith propertly. As i said before - i ussualy dont do any tune-ups cuz i know like 3% about tuning all the ecu's So im leaving this operaion to a pros.

In the 7A setup (on a stock internals) there is no need for a Stand Alone at all - cuz 200hp is almost a limit for a 7A, and for 200hp tune up - Emanage is the way to go - Cheap and good to tune up.

good call doggy.
megasquirt is nice, but it can be a bit of a pain to get up and running properly..
good to see the leakdown test results were in order, that is always a good thing.
good work on the fabrication on the ic and stuff!
cant wait to see the results!

[malpaso]

I would agree that unit can handle that "boost business". Although I don't know about that much (what I don't find on web I don't know ), I believe text below answering a lot...

...
cant wait to see the results!

Tell me about that

[doGGy]

Update Got the Valve cover gaskets, still waiting on the main seal where the camshaft and ignition module connects... Still waiting on the Flanges for all the stuff what will need to be fabricated. I think everything will be started tomorow - or at worst case wednesday...

[RoadDawg]

Hey, nice project Is the turbo kit from one of your machines doggy ? I wouldn't mind to get my 7afe turbocharged by you guys, afterall it's only a 8 hour drive for me

Hey Nice to see my old Front bumper

Yes the turbokit came from my Old ST. But it would be easy to build another kit for me actually. So its not a problem at all if you would be intrested, the main problem is time

[doGGy]

OooOoOOK - here we go Finally.

Got all the stuff what i was waiting one, so i thought its about damn time to start works.

Here are all the flanges / oil supply fitting / Fuel Rail:


All these where machined by my friend, so i got them kinda cheap for all the stuff and works i paid like 28$

I decided to rework the fuel rail what the outlet of it had the fitting for the hose, instead of leaving the stock FPR in place and connecting the new FPR from it. SO fuel rail had been rescrewed and new fitting made for it:



Got the fitting for the oil supplie witch goes to the block (stock oil pressure sensor place), it has the place for the stock sensor to bolt in, so the stock sensor will work like it was working before:


All the flanges for the oil supply / oil return from turbo / Downpipe flange / and Bov flange. Still i will need to weld the bungs for the oil supply / return flanges - but this is and easy job


Some piping what i bought at local exhaust shop for the intercooler and downpipe (20$ ) :


Valve cover gasket set (new) cuz valve cover is leaking like crazy on Martins car:


And here is the victim Still just sitting in garage and having no idea what will gonna happen


Ooook as for the start - i removed airfilter box:


It wount be needed anymore - so it goes into the trunk

Next thing was to remove the bumper / inner fender plastics / under plastics (what are under the engine) and the front safty bar (witch is "bent" a little ):


After all was removed - next thing is to remove the header / alternator (alternator removal is a good thing cuz it will give you lots of free space to work with the oil supply fitting and it will be easyer to remove the header)


After header found a place on the ground of my garage here is another target what i was aiming at :




Screwed it out and placed my new fitting in the place:


And put the stock one back into the new fitting:


Oil supply was ready
Next thing was to drain the oil out from the engine and remove the oil pan:


Once the oil pan was out it was clearly visible what some one before me removed it (hmmm maybe somthing was done to the engine before....)

Next target was to clear some space around the Turbo, and the main problem was this box with the relays (US 7A might not have this...):


Well after some thinking - this box found her new place near the ABS module:


Now was time to test fit the Turbo header and Turbine itself:


Hmm it sits in the place Still to make it sit in the place and have some room around i had to make some changes to the Radiator, and to the upper radiator brackets. As you can see in the pics below, on the radiator there are bolting places for the A/C fan, they where hitting turbine cold part, so i just had to go and cut them out (hope marting wount be putting A/C in his car pretty soon )


And i had to redrill the moutning holes on the upper radiator brackets to move the radiator more in front of the car:



And i was reaby for the next step, mount the oil distributor along with the oil supply hoses... But then my wife walked into garage - and said ENOUTH so yea... i had to go out and leave everything as is Anyway, still its a friday - so i have to spend some time outside Keep you updated - cuz tomorow i will be working again on this beast. For now whats it.

not to hijack this thread but, has anyone ever sent you, or have you ever done any work to any nissan's Romas?

Is this would be good enouth Nissan Pulsar GTR 550hp >>> (last summer this Nissan saw a 720hp with NOS and when the main aluminium pulley cracked at 7400rpm on a dyne and went out along with the half of the block...) On this car i'v done most of the interior stuff / exterior stuff. I aint ussualy work with the engines (Only Toyota Engines ), but im working along with the biggest Tuning Company in Lithuania (GroundZero) so i think they can build / help on everything..
