7mgte in a hilux

[SUPR3ME]

hey ive just finished rebuilding my 7mgte to standard specs except pistons which are ceramic coated and 20 thou oversize, just waiting on the bellhousing to suit w58 box i have in the lux, and just wondering how much boost can i run and wat sort of power levels am i looking at with the setup, i got an electronic boost controller, top mount cooler with thermos on it, lexus afm, apexi safc, bosch 044 pump, and a tial rising rate reg, the hilux is 4x4 and i have the 8" diffs with air lockers going in back and front, also has a custom 1pce tailshaft with oversize uni joints, im hoping to have it going next week to start running it in but havent done much with turbos always owned blown v8's, any advise would be great, cheers

I assume you are using the original g52 box ? (same bellhousing as w58 I believe)
I would say its the weakest link in your setup, may not take too much punishment before it lets go.

Sounds awesome though. PICS !!!

[SUPR3ME]

nah definately not a g52 ay its a w58 had it checked with the gearbox guy here its not the original box, original box was only a 4 speed

[2jzhilux]

I would run about 12-13 psi and take it very easy on the gearbox as enchanter said it will be your weak link.
Power would probably be around 300rwhp.

300 atw would be heaps for me ay as long as my 4x4 beats a standard r33 skyline ill be pretty happy but then i dont think ill be happy til i blow the box anyway lol

does the boost cut shut off injectors or fuel pump

yea man get some pics ups

[SUPR3ME]

heres some pics let me know wat you think

[MezaH]

yea man thats tuff!
i would be quite scared of it when smashing down a hwy or something lol

gee thats tuff mate.. what dash is that out of? i have a 2wd RN41 and wanted to get a newer dash for it

[Enchanter]

Looks like the standard dash to me, same as mine anyway.
That is on awesome looking hilux !!
I would give you some rep if my fking HTC phone would let me.
Damn fine

[SUPR3ME]

the lux itself is 81 but the dash and seats are from a 92 hilux surf fits straight in just sorting out the instrument cluster i just found some 35s for it too, hoping it will be a bit of an animal theres a few guys that live in albany that think that thier standard skyline is the fastest car in town so it would be epic to beat them in a 4x4 hilux haha

Nice work, I think around the 280 to 300 odd RWHP should be doable with around 12 PSI.
I'm very curious to see how the W58 mates up with the transfer case, as normally people have to stick with the original G52 (or assume G42 in your case). Any chance of some details of the swap?

[SUPR3ME]

ill put up a big post once i get it finished with pics of the whole build just gotta find a flywheel then i have everything needed

Awsome hilux, might need to look at airflow to radiator when the hot motor goes in, if its making the horses it eating the chaff and making the heat.
Gl with it!

[SUPR3ME]

yeh i got a rad out of a 2jztt i gotta fab the front and i got twin thermos for it so hoping that will keep heat down
