"Parmas" Motor
Because of the previous hack the thread was lost and since the project is coming to a finish I am considering to update as far as I can on how a modified 1NZFE can perform.
The motor was bought from Jess (TurbineTech) which was owned by Bruce (TurboEcho2005). During the time discussing with Jess he pointed that a different transmission is needed to get the most out of it. I agreed to buy a C160 6spd close transmission with LSD used on stock Corrolla GTs (4AGE engine). When the motor arrived a full internal check was made and we think that more than 200Hp could be obtained. Recently the setup was installed into the car. The transmission needed a spacer since it was hitting the chassis and the turbo exhaust mainfold custom made by Jess was only for left hand drive. Now the car is prepared into the garage for a new stainless turbo mainfold and str8 exhaust to be completed for the next days. Will update more as soon as I get some further news! |

Btw is there any Platinum spark plugs for the 1NZFE?

Who said Yaris was slow?

I don't think Platinum is the best choice for boost applications.
You need either the cheaper copper ones or the expensive Iridiums. Must people use the coppers for the tunning period and once the engine is all set go to the Iridiums for daily usage. And yes, there are Denso's and NGK's for the 1NZFE in several heat ranges. |

But for your engine you need to go 1 step colder. Perhaps even 2 steps colder if you are going with high boost (you shoud ask this to your tuner). On NGK the next step colder would be BKR6EIX On NGK, the higher the number , the colder the plug. Heat range 6 is one step colder than a heat range 5. side note: On Denso is the other way around... The Higher the number, the colder the plug. Those should be easy to find on your local auto parts shop. Just go and ask for Yaris Iridium plugs, and then go for one step colder. Just stick with either NGK or Denso. |

Hey man I checked out a thread on scionlife about the intake mainfold made by user castrex (not sure if is the same person in this forum) and it seems interesting. Do you know if it is for international sale and if it fits the first gen yaris?

Yeah it was me... but If I were you I would not wait for that manifold.
This is been going on for months and months and months... The company that was supposed to manufacture the intake, scrapped the project early this year. And the guy doing the design has not posted a thing for several weeks now. |

I think you can now call it the Parmas motor project -- after this work, it is really yours. Awesome!

Very nice
It looks great! And I think it's about time you called it your own project! I also have no doubts that you will make 220-240whp. I was making around that before the 4age swap. Good luck with the project. I look forward to following this thread. Btw I think the mods should change the title!

I got some news and got some pics for you to check out!
The new exhaust mainfold is ready (the stainless one) now remains the intercooler piping which should be ready within the next days. Btw the last picture shows that due to the engine not levelled the bellow of the shaft seem stressed and not in order. We will try to make it levelled as soon as all the stainless work is ready |

Btw I am trying to match two bov which are;
http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=792 The HKS SSQV http://www.blitz-uk.co.uk/Product-182.aspx The Blitz SuperSound BOV Which of them you suggest me to choose? why? |

I would go for the HKS Super sequential... but that is just for personal preference.
Both are quality units and will get the job done! And agree with Cali, for the wastegate look for Tiaal, that is good stuff. That is if you are not using and internally wastegated turbo... BTW, what turbo will you be using? And what kind of driving would you be doing with your car once done? Are you using the Yaris drive shafts on the c160 tranny or something else? If you are planning to do some drag racing, or hard launches and still have the yaris shafts you should be looking for upgraded units. |

The intensions are mainly low class drag racing / car shows and sunday cruises. The shafts will probably need to be upgraded until then I prevent hard launches from stop signs :) Regarding the BOV each Blitz & HKS are a quality brands. The difference is that of the price difference though |

Those are both good -- I like TIAL products myself. What wastegate are you going to use? Don't forget I'm a Blitz dealer so if you choose that let me ship you one!
