Toyota AE86 4AG 20v + Adaptronic e420d ecu

A customer would like to replace the old 4AG 16v engine in his AE86 with a newer 4AG 20v,but as the 20v is from a front wheel drive Levin/Trueno,when it being fitted to rear wheel drive format,the distributor will hit the firewall,there are 3 solutions to this,which is knocking the firewall for the distributor to clear,make a distributor relocation kit or use a Standalone engine management system to convert the ignition system form distributor to wasted spark or direct fire (individual coils).

A better alternative is the third option which is using a standalone engine management system.R.N.R Autosport have suggested the owner to go for direct fire coil on plug ignition system.In this case the coil used is from Nissan SR20 S15 Silvia.ECU of choice is the Adaptronic e420d.This little ecu is packed of features for its relatively cheap price.

Put the car up on the Dyno Dynamics Chassis Dynamometer

 

The result of the conversion.The engine is totally stock standard except for extractor,coil on plug converision and the custom made trumpets.A good result considering its a RWD car which has a higher transmission losses,not to mention this is tuned on RON 95 petrol.The fuel consumption is greatly decreased,more than 14km/L on highways (as reported by the owner). Ecu running flawlessly everytime,no matter cold or hot start.

Congrats to the owner,a rare classics,AE86 is a gem.This project is will not end here,the owner has a few more plans for his baby.So watch out this blog guys.Thanks.

New Projects by R.N.R Autosport

New projects at  R.N.R Autosport

 

 5 new units of Adaptronic e420d for R.N.R Autosport customers,various projects including RB25 and 4AG 20v. A cost effective ecu that has proven itself as a competitor to the well known brands in aftermarket ecu world. I believe with its price and features,Adaptronic will gain popularity among motorsport enthusiasts,especially in Malaysia.

First hand experience on Link G4 Extreme ecu,this ecu features is massive.It's the top end ecu from Link.It will be installed in our customer Toyota 1JZ GTE VVT-i with HKS T51R turbo.

Watch this blog for an update on the LINK G4.

Happy motoring.

Toyota Corolla SEG + 4AGE Silvertop + Blacktop ECU + E-manage

Hi,recently done a E-manage Ultimate installation and tuning on a 4AGE Silvertop 20v with Blacktop ecu. Engine is stock except for trumpets and exhaust adjustable cam pulley. Engine is not at its best performance due to some leaks and this car is on 16 inch wheels.

On Dyno

Results,the orange line is before tuning and the pink one is after tuning.Car goes much stronger and the fuel consumption is decreased.



JZX90 Auto To Manual Conversion

Here is some details on the transmission tunnel for those who like to get on the Auto to Manual conversion on a JZX90/GX90

This is the R154 gearbox on the stock GX90 auto chassis. Look at the rubber boot and gear lever hitting the chassis. The gearbox mount is far away to be bolted to the chassis.

Some measurements are made and chassis are cut.At this point the front shifter linkage still stuck under the tunnel,hencc the gearbox mount could not be bolted.

A further measurements and cuts are made to clear the shifter linkage. Now it is clear and gearbox mount could be bolted down.

To cover up the gaping hole,a piece of Manual JZX90 chassis tunnel is cut and welded to the Auto chassis,now the gear lever gaiter can be fitted on to the new tunnel.

Project JZX90 started!

The R.N.R Autosport JZX90 conversion project have started,it is on its way to finish now.

Engine dismantling process, out goes the good old 1G-FE with 4 Speed Auto box

Dashboard change If you guys notice on the transmission tunnel there is a black plate on top of it. This is becasue the GX90 Auto chassis is different from manual chassis,hence to fit the bulky R154 gearbox, i need to cut the tunnel to clear the gearbox and weld a piece of transmission tunnel from the JZX90 halfcut. Will show the details later on this part.

The 1JZGTE twin turbo engine,all things are stock,so i'm not expecting much kick in the butt..
