1zz-fe conversion with 4zz-fe ecu and gearbox

[Craig Goliath]

Hey Guys,

 

Craig here from Cape Town, South Africa.

I recently bought a 1zz-fe import engine and did conversion by removing the 4zz-fe engine which has been in since factory in my 2003 pre-facelift RunX.

I've only done 50-57mm exhaust with 2 Speed boxes and full Apexi CAI.

note I'm using 4zz ecu and 5 spd gearbox

Haven't done dyno run yet so I don't know what the figures are like.

currently using normal NGK spark plugs which are recommended for the engine and 15w40 Shell Helix oil.

Is there anything I should be aware of with running this setup? on next service I'm leaning towards 5w40 Shell Helix Ultra , changing VVT filter and using the NGK Platinum Iridium Spark Plugs.

 

thanks in advance...
