According to babel fish it says "Mr. Woods, stop looking at other engines and go and finish Lilly's V8, now there's a good chap." Spooky eh?

O.S.

[Paul Woods]

strange? does it also say anything about painting some mr2 panels? :)

[Marksman]

No, dont think so! I have the utmost faith in the chap involved with that project, but the bloke doing the V8 seems to keep getting distracted by customers / wives / holidays and the like so Lilly is feeling a tad unloved!

As far as the black panels go i'm thinking of intercepting that package as I think they'll look very good on a certain silver coupe with black roof... Not sure Miss Owen would like that much though!

Cheers Paul,

Owen.

Theres no picture but its one that is made by TRD for the 1MZ:)


Edit: I sent this to someone to get it translated
http://www.twobrutal.co.uk/forum/images/recovered/2006/08/3.gif

They wrote this back


Ignoring the red writing on the top...the black katakana reads

"Powerful and smooth engine (V6 3.0) with a supercharger, highest power at 23 psi, torque 3.5 kg, high performance.

Top Power is 179Kw 243PS/5800 rpm, max torque 338n.m (34.5kg.m) 3200 rpm... "small wagon" called Miniban

...fastest car, most torque made by Estima (car company in Japan)"

The dots before fastest car are because my translator didn't know what the word was translated into English. This is translated by a girl and typed by a guy, both of whom have no knowledge of cars, so its literally done. Hope it help somewhat, or gives you an idea

[Paul Woods]

ya i think thats the current one they do that is the same as phils (MRV6) ,its got a fixed pulley on it when this new one seems to have an electromagnetic clutch drive like a mk1SC has....which i like.

[Zip]

I get ya:)
Check the edit out if you want to know what it says:mrgreen:

[Paul Woods]

holy crap! 23psi!!! how is that possible without intercooling? theres more going on here than meets the eye or the translation isnt quite right.....are you sure you didnt ask for a chicken fried rice by mistake? lol

[Zip]

Im sure:D
If you read the Japanese in that picture you will see the Number 23 in there Followed by PS:)

[Zip]

I got another Tranlation from someone else and this time it comes with the red title:)


23PS up Supercharger that pulls out most potential of 1Mz- FEs (err i dont know much about car stuf..)

by installing this supercharger on this engine(1Mz-FE(v6 3.0l) that is known to be powerfull and smooth, you can get a further 23PS, 3.5Kg.m torque.

max output 179kW (243PC) / 5800rpm. max torque 338N.m (34.5kg.m)/3200rpm which is around a minivans high rev point with maximum performance.
it can get a astonishing torques even at midlow revs giving great acceleration which brings the better estima.

Then he writes this at the end

something like that... hopefully its all right. and yes my english is amazingly bad

[adamh]

mmm 250 lb / ft in standard form, thats a nice engine there, all pretty and vvt'id !

[Marksman]

PS as in almost horsepower not as in PSI. So all of 23ish BHP gain by fitting a SC? Er I'm confused, or maybe not. That would fit in with no IC though, just mini boost to fill in the bottom end... So maybe that's it. Seems like a lot of effort to go to for that though.

O.S.

[Sparky]

I would be thinking that it adds 23PS (hp) to the engine which would be about right for a 243PS engine when the stock 1mz is about 210hp right.

23psi would seriously destroy the stock pistons so unless this is some super built 1mz then I dont think thats psi. but its nice to dream.

hmm 23psi supercharged, how much parasitic loss there :D

edit: damn it I didnt notice the second page of this thread :D

[Paul Woods]

ah right 23ps,thats more like it... i bet thats at 4psi so plenty of room for improvement,i do like the way this charger has the electro clutch on it though.

[Drangdin]

Seems like a lot of trouble for that much perderstroike (PS) You guys would probably be more interested in something like this for horsepower potential.

338

Twin turbo fun factory eh?

[Sparky]

so...
590,000yen = AU$6600 = GBP 2700pounds
750,000yen = AU$8500 = GBP 3400pounds
