Thoughts on 1jz non vvti setup

[.:2DR-FTU:.]

Hey all,

I have purchased a jzx90 1jzgte to put into my s13. This is solely a track car, which will be mainly for drifting, with the odd track day/ hillclimb. I have some thoughts on what i would like engine wise, but want to get some input from you guys as i know many of you have had these for years.
Basically i'm going for a basic setup which will offer not too much lag as id like the car to be competitive to a degree, so am thinking the following:

Haltech PS2000 ECU with racepak and flex sensor

6x ID 1000cc injectors

E85

Garrett 3076 twin scroll with a kelway manifold, unknown size of external gate: thoughts?

UNDECIDED on cams.. BC step 1 264's or input please?

ROSS balancer

1NZ coilpacks

I know i havent listed anything regarding opening the engine, its been stock its whole life as it came out of a mates car from japan. Would the headstuds and headgasket be a wise move doing before getting it in, or shall i leave it until i need to?
Any input would be great as to your thoughts... and what sort of power i could roughly expect to see. Thanks in advance.

what gearbox are you planning to run with this?
Planning the same sort of setup but leaving the cams standard, i'll worry about that if it ever pops a headgasket, when that happens a bit of headwork and i'll worry about the cam.

i run a similar set up,

1j
stock cams
gtx35 turbo
1000cc injectors
autronic and cdi - factory coils
ross balancer

mine makes 530rwhp...
the smaller turbo will drop the top end, but boost the low end, and e85 gives you a mountain of torque in comparrison to 98...

my advice would be to go with a gtx30 turbo - the billet front wheels are much better.
i would leave the top end alone till you have driven it....
if you want more power, do the cams then - but remember, cams generally move your power band around.
as for head gasket, worry about it if it becomes an issue, they seem to be pretty good.

Cheers
