turbo project continued...

[cali yaris]

are you 100% always a dick? :frown:

I said that oil cap came from AEM -- which it did.

[33OH]

Plus, since he's wondering where to get one.. your best bet would be with a company who still sells them, don't you think? :iono:

[ChinoCharles]

I like turbeeeees!

[cali yaris]

You should! :smile:

[BLAZINBLUEVITZ]

sucks when shoes on the other foot huh???

[SweetRS]

wow, what did i start?? my bad....

[cali yaris]

you didn't start anything... Andy just has a certain "way of being".... unfortunately for the rest of us.

[ChinoCharles]

^ That is called "poking the bear." :laugh:

[cali yaris]

LOL... and ewww at the same time. I'd probably be irritable if I poked bears, too. :smile:

[cali yaris]

UPDATE 5/21

Couldn't figure out why 550cc injectors would be maxing out at 8 psi in the upper rpm ranges...definitely enough fuel pressure.

Turns out they are 200cc, not 550cc...oops :eek:

More injectors on order and the tuning continues.

[AlexNet0]

oh damn, lol

Dam :eek: that's a big differance , :help:

[Brad D]

wellll.... dammit, no start today. Everything seems to be wired up correctly, but the coils aren't delivering a spark. One more (hopefully?) hurdle for Art to work through - OFFICIALLY OVER MY HEAD... hehe... :wink:

It was actually nice just to sit in my car today, even if I wasn't being much help... :smile:


i take it you got it going? when a AEM does not fire first thing to check in if Stat Sync turn on while cranking...

And what are you using to fire the coils? Twin fire? Dis4?

Is that a honda AEM wired up?

Love the setup, would like to play with my yaris more but its just for going to and from work:redface:

wich motor do you have on your yaris???

[03Z33]

wich motor do you have on your yaris???

LS1

[AlexNet0]

^:laugh:



I cant wait to see the built motor go VROOOOOOM!!!

[CtrlAltDefeat]

no more info? it's been almost a month...

[cali yaris]

that's cause I've been really enjoying the car and doing some other stuff (extended wheel studs, etc.).

It goes in for the motor swap on Thursday 6/25.

[Treyz]

Yeah I wish I had money .. my project in terms of the car in general is put to a halt until I can get $$$. Set me back a whole lot even to the point where I'm ready to sell all on the car and put it back to stock. I really don't want to get to that point though.

BTW ... check out my new site hahaha ... www.ambientlifestyle.com

Sorry, had to plug it in.

[cali yaris]

site looks really great :smile:

[Parmas]

Hey garm what transmission do you intend to use on the build motor?

[cali yaris]

^ Stock 'til it breaks.

We start our tear-down today, guys!!

[Tamago]

^ Stock 'til it breaks.

see you in a few weeks ;)

[ROCKLAND TOYOTA]

see you in a few weeks ;)

always the optimist.....

[Tamago]

always the optimist.....

i'm on transmission #3 and i didn't even break 160whp

[ROCKLAND TOYOTA]

damm scion transmissions:laugh:

[Tamago]

damm scion transmissions:laugh:

last one i broke was an ECHO transmisson :laugh:

[cali yaris]

I drove at 183 whp for 9 months, and now I'm at about 210 -- trans is doing just fine.

But thanks for the sarcasm, anyway.... I'd probably ask you if you were feeling all right if you stopped doing it. :wink:

[Morgan]

AEM makes this sweet water/methanol set up, with progressive nozzles and a super easy control box... you should get it! :biggrin:

Good luck!

Lookin forward to this build :)

Don't know how much more popcorn i can eat....

I asked you this because I heard that stock trans don't hold much bhp (been told near 150-170bhp) although that depends how you drive the car. If you are willing to drag race it frequently on high revs at about 300Bhp than that is another story.

[cali yaris]

Parmas, where did you "hear" this? I see this kind of information posted all the time, and it's never traceable to real life experience. Tamago, on the other hand, has actually blown transmissions, so his experience does count as data.

[Kaotic Lazagna]

WHOA!!!!!!!!!!!! 210 whp? That Monster must fly!

[cali yaris]

well, it's all coming apart now, so I'll take some progress pics for you next week.

[eTiMaGo]

WHOA!!!!!!!!!!!! 210 whp? That Monster must fly!

people must think Garm has had Botox treatment because he has that huge grin stuck on his face every time he's in the car... :laugh:

Last year when I was in good contact with Jess of TurbineTech during the approach to buy the engine from him, he told me that to be safe it's better to invest on a 4age transmission. I don't know if he knows how much the yaris trans holds but I would prefer be in the safe side.

I think turboecho2005 could tell you more on this...

[Treyz]

Wait, so you're saying that the 4AGE bolts up to the 1NZ?

which 4AGE transmission? please tell us lol, there is no such thing as a 4AGE transmission

[Parmas]

which 4AGE transmission? please tell us lol, there is no such thing as a 4AGE transmission

The 4AGE engine is used on Toyota AE111 Levin/Trueno which combines with a C160 6speed transmission with limited slip differential.

This transmission happens to be the one I am using with my 1NZFE!!. Matches perfectly and the stock yaris links match up. It is sure way better than the stock one and capable to withstand higher power than the yaris trans.

[cali yaris]

Jess is knowledgable, but I think he only had the car on the dyno.

[turboecho2005]

I have no doubt that the c160 transmission is stronger. it was designed for a car that has 170hp and revs to 10k.... unlike the 1nzfe that was used in an economy car.

But don't expect the c160 to give you a better quarter mile time. its more suited to the track as far as gearing... if you wanted 1/4 speed then you would have been better to stick with the 5 speed.

although the 160 is geared more towards track use... i would say its the best transmission thats a direct swap for track/road use. The LSD is a plus also.

Plus its a cheaper solution then buying an LSD and fitting into your stock yaris transmission.

I am excited to see this project :) Hurry up!!! :thumbsup:

[cali yaris]

ha, I'm working on it!

Art only has thursdays and sundays so those are our working days on the car. then we'll (finally!) schedule dyno time to properly tune this thing.

ok lol so C160 transmission not 4AGE transmission lol

[eTiMaGo]

the 4A-GE ('s most commonly associated 6-speed) transmission, there, jeez :biggrin:

[cali yaris]

500 mile break-in is completed -- dyno tuning scheduled for Sunday Aug. 23. Wish me luck

[Galavoxx]

This is going to be good, whatever happens.

[cali yaris]

yeah, it will be YouTube worthy, either way... :eek:

[Tamago]

4AGE went in many many different cars. the MR2 didn't get a 6spd :( neither did the ae92GTS


and good luck garm!

[Tamago]

yeah, it will be YouTube worthy, either way... :eek:

did you swap motors?
if so.. wich motor do you put in that little monster?:evil:

good luck with that!:thumbsup:

[cali yaris]

^ built motor, head work, AEM management, fuel upgrades, motor/trans mounts

[Sabretooth]

please god, dont use your cellphone this time...unless your using one of them Samsungs with a 5MP camera...at least then it will be half ass worthy...lol

[cali yaris]

ok ok, I'll use a decent cam.

Lost cylinder 3 today, possibly a cracked plug (it's not the cylinder). Will post again later.

[TheRealEnth]

not decent... HD camcorder man... =) they are cheap and work amazing

[1NZYaris1]

Just a thought , now that the yaris is a hot hatch and thirsty :redface:
it might Qualify for cash for clunker's :eyebulge: :evil:

sorry just joking :respekt:

[cali yaris]

[1NZYaris1]

[Kaotic Lazagna]

hahaha, it was a one-way stream. It was cool. I remember studying and checking in the stream every now-and-then.

[TheRealEnth]

[lilredrocket]

Pick people on here. Haha j/k I love this community

[TheRealEnth]

man you're spoiled LOL

IF you got a digi camera snapshot ones, take video recordings from that, its pretty decent
