S12 Grand Prix with the FJ20E(T?)!!!

[Kevin]

Update:

Last monday we started with the engine-swap.

We get the FJ20E-engine and the gearbox out of the Grand Prix.
After that we swapped the starter,steering pump, injectorrail, etc etc.

We found out that the FJ20ET has a knock-sensor and the FJ20E hasn't.
Also the ignition is different, we swapped the FJ20E-ignition on the FJ20ET.

It seems that the injectors are all the same, a little bit strange because the NA FJ20 has 143hp and the ET has 190hp.

The ET has EGR and the E hasn't

We gave the ET a new clutch-disc and bolted the gearbox on the engine.
Now it's ready to put the FJ20ET into the Grand Prix, we'll do that tomorrow

Pics come hopefully later today...

Cheers!

Pictures off the ET-engine in will come tomorrow! )

We tried to start the engine with the ET-injectors, but all 4 were broken. So we plugged in the E-injectors. (just to start the engine).

We had some problems with the distributor and the timing, but after many many many hours we managed to start the engine!! We almost gave up!

And we also discovered that the turbo and downpipe FIT in the LHD drive car. I read several times on the internet that the turbo will hit the steering-rack, but it dont!

But we have lots of work to do, intercooler + piping and complete exhaust, so I think the fine-tuning and driving under boost will be about a few weeks....

But we're so happy the car finnaly started after 8 hours off searching what the problem was!

Without this the project is impossible!

The S12 is driving with the new engine about one months now and the FJ20ET is doing very well!

The boost pressure is standard about 0,5bar and it has probably also the standard 190hp at the moment!

In the following weeks we will lower the S12, set the boost pressure to 0,8bar and maybe we will buy another S12 FJ20 for parts.

Update:

We put the FJ20ET ECU, ET Loom and ET MAF in the car!

Sorry, it will be in english in about a few weeks.

We're now trying to set-up the fuel management so we can run at 14 PSI boost pressure!! The A/F-ratio is now above the 6000rpm too lean!

But till the 6000rpm is

Cheers,

Update:

Because of the restriction with the original FJ20ET airflap, we removed the FJ20ET Computer and wiring and replaced it with the S14 SR20DET ECU and wiring. Now the engine runs with coilpacks and the SR20DET MAF.

The S12 is my friends car, I own an S110!



Short spec list! S14 SR20DET engine, converted pitman-steering for custom power steering + rack, AP-brakes, Tein stagea coilovers, S13 hubs, custom subframe, custom adjustable tension rods and brackets and the rest of the sh*t.
