Toyota Supra SZR to RZ conversion (2JZGE – 2JZGTE VVTi)

The last video I’m uploading tonight – the video that started it all for me to get into this supra media coverage/publishing. Now over 120,000+ views on youtube I’m pretty stoked and overwhelmed by the reponse. Although a simple video diary of pictures and seems to hit the spot with viewers. At the time I had no idea about cars or supras but managed to do the conversion successfully with the help of guys from supraforums and friends/family.

Toyota Supra VVTi Single Turbo Walk Around

Walk around of my 1998 Toyota Supra VVTi Single Turbo with Garrett T51R turbo. Larger intake, removal of AFM (When upgrade ECU), exhaust and fuel system to be done. Stock wheels on for now as it will be in and out of shops getting some fabrication and tuning done. This was before ECU and lots of other mods happened!

Toyota Supra VVTi Single Turbo Running

Running and revving of my Toyota Supra VVTi Single Turbo with Garrett T51R turbo. Few finishing touches to be complete before drivable, all the smoke is from the exhaust and squealing is vacuum issue, don’t mind the dodgy clutch control! haha

Toyota Supra VVTi Single Turbo First Startup

Before I started up the VVTi 2JZGTE T51R SIngle Turbo setup for the first time, I forgot to remove a wiring loom holder in front of manifold which caused vacuum leak and very loud squeal noise!

First Startup of my Toyota Supra VVTi Single Turbo with Garrett T51R turbo. Currently ECU needs to re-learn and radiator overflow hose was loose and air was getting through making squealing sound, better video to come once idling.
