Mxdsnny Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Very impressed with your build so far. I have a few probably stupid questions. Are you running this on the standard ECU? If so how?? I have a set k2 throttle bodies sat in my garage and may ha e to ha e a go. I can see your using your standard TPS good mod. And the vacuum line are you running that to the ecu? Thanks Dan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Dan Hi mate I was running it on the stock ecu yes for a few weeks but I had to take them off as the fuelling was terrible and it needed adjusting to suit the itb's with a aftermarket ecu but it did run and drive on the standard ECU no problem. With the vacuum I took it off the 4 runners into a vacuum block and then ran the map sensor line and brake booster vacuum to it and also the fuel regulator vacuum. Nothing to the ecu. But yeah have a go it's a good project :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JDM_MARK Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 I did notice it got up in the revs a lot quicker but I think it could be a lot better with a few other supporting mods. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JDM_MARK Posted January 24, 2018 Author Share Posted January 24, 2018 So not much of an update but I do have a few parts coming together, I made a little spacer ring for the gauge to fit the larger hole in the pod. And I finally decided to go with a ecumaster det3, seems like a few people have had good experiences with using it so I thought I'd give it a go. Not bad: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDM_MARK Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 Right the next thing I have started is taking the spare engine out and started stripping it down. I have had the head on the work bench for the last few months porting and polishing and going rebuild this and swap the head over. I have also been collecting parts for the exhaust manifold which is on the to do list next. The head was a pain to get off managed to round a few of the bolts unfortunately anyway heres where I'm at now. And here's what 25+ hours of work and having no social life for a few months will get you. It's not perfect but I am happy with the way it is. I also port matched the exhaust to the inside of the runner tubes I also done the chambers and smoothed out the step under the valve seats. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
