greeneyes Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 Aha! Now I see why the motor was for sale!~ Does the 1JZ fit in fairly easily, or is it a big chop and weld job?
frylai Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 alright, no need to thanks me so many times Shane ;)...let us know how it gets on dude... Matt :)
Graham D Posted April 17, 2004 Posted April 17, 2004 How's the conversion going? I have a similar one underway and almost finished. The 1JZ bolts straight in with only a few problems. I changed the gearbox to a Getrag V160 6 speed at the same time. Had to shorten the gearchange to suit the location. Graham
?UESTLOVE Posted April 20, 2004 Author Posted April 20, 2004 Not good G, havent started it yet :( Hopefully next week!!
IcepaX Posted April 20, 2004 Posted April 20, 2004 Hope all goes well Shane. Just a question, you doing the conversion yourself or with a workshop? Which workshop if you are?
