1000hp 2JZ Pro Am & Beyond Build..
Well.. Why not make a build thread to document the ridiculous amount of time and money that's went into this thing over the last 8 months.
The car's original intention was to be a pro-am build, but then my irritation with constantly redoing my car to match my driving ability caught up with me and I figured why not just build something that can compete at all levels and go as far as my driving can possibly progress. Alright! I picked up my coupe back in 2012, it was a bone stock shell at the time, completely stripped down as the original owner was planning on doing a crazy pro-am build but no longer had the time. Since getting it, I swapped in a ka24e, drove a lot of events at Evergreen Drift in Washington in 2012, the following 2 years would consist of tons of additional events and gradual changes to the car to match my progression as a driver, including swapping in a 1uzfe V8 motor from a Lexus LS400. Then September 2014 comes around, and I'm wanting to try for my pro 2 license in the 2015 pro am series.. Here's what ensued. For those not wanting to read through the build.. here's the general specs on the car: S13 Coupe 2JZGTE VVTi, 10:1 CP Pistons, Eagle Rods, lots of head work, etc, etc. 1100cc Injector Clinic injectors for leaded 110 fuel. Injector Clinic fuel rail. ATL 10gal fuel cell Radium fuel cell surge tank, aem-50-1000 lift pump, 2 aem-50-1000 fuel pumps. Stock intake manifold with modified mkiv supra throttle body vmount intercooler and radiator GForce GSR 4-Speed Dog Box Tilton triple disc clutch (holds 1,100ft-lbs+ of torque for $300, win!) AutoDeriva flywheel BW S300SX 8375 Turbo Quick Spool valve Tial BOV Precision 44mm wastegate to dump Full straight pipe exhaust Haltech full engine management + RacePak Custom KW coilovers built for our specific application courtesy of KW sponsorship. Wisefab Front + Rear suspnesion arms / kit. Cosmis S5R wheels, running 245/40/18F and 275/35/18R Z32 brakes all around, dual caliper setup, etc. Rocket Bunny V2 Kit Lots and lots and lots and lots and lots more - see pics. ---- How the car currently sits: https://scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram...82681447_n.jpg And now onto the build..

Right now the car is still in need of a tune, and a few other minor things - should be shredding again by the end of the month! |

Great build.... Different wheels in the future?
|
AMAZING MAN!
Everything just happened so quickly.. I feel like we didn't even get to know each other lol.. |
Um....... I just tinkled a little......... at my desk.
|
Why stop at 1,000HP, why not 2,000HP??
|
wow! amazing build> subd
|
wow...impressive build sir!!!! purposefull build with sensible parts selection...great balance between function and form so far. Thank you for posting up.
|
Holy Shit, this is pretty damn impressive.
|
Amazing, looking forward to the next update
|
Holy shit. $$$$$$$$$$$$
|
Man awesome fab and engine work. From first picture i didn't know you put rocket bunny flares and painted orange on purpose then I saw that's the final look, I think it's just the wheels that don't flow maybe.
|
Thanks for the feedback guys!
The Cosmis wheels are actually getting changed out for something different. My fronts don't clear as much as I'd like, so I'll be dropping down to 17's in the front, and swapping out the Azenis for some 245/35/17 Toyo R1R's to make the most out of the angle kit. Not quite sure what style to go with for the new wheels, maybe something dished? Hmm. |
Also, I'll likely be driving the car at FD Seattle - so keep an eye out if you're local!
|
This build is...... How do you say..... "The Tits."
|
I enjoy the fact the wisefab has not pushed your track to infinity and beyond.

Also, hooray for switching wheels. The rest of the car is way too rad for those cheesy-looking Cosmis things. |
hot like fire. Sick car you got!
|
Thanks guys. I should be getting my flywheel within a week or two. Can't wait to get on the dyno!
|
Amazing build and fabrication, i love the v mount setup and the catch can Sick! ugh i want a set of wisefab arms myself.

What bellhousing is that? Did GForce supplied the adapter plate? |

Kit should be around $2,000~ for everything to mate a dogbox and get it working with a 2jz. Here's a picture of the prototype flywheel: https://igcdn-photos-f-a.akamaihd.ne...66599237_n.jpg |
Awesome build. The center exit exhaust looks sick.
|
Some great news.
The car has been dyno'd and is going great. The flywheel came in and the drivetrain and 95% of the car is finished! Here's a teaser video of lighting up the shop's driveway. The car is currently running 28psi on the BW 8375 turbo. This thing comes on like a fucking banshee with the VVTi, quick spool, short piping, high compression and all of the secret bits we've added in. Here's the video, definitely worth the watch! I bet you haven't heard a JZ come online like this one does! https://youtu.be/GFQXU9c2AzE Also, here's the car as it sits right now. Just finishing up aligning body panels and fixing some small things! https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...8d&oe=56122F2E |
beautiful man.
Keep up the great work. |
The guy's giggle in the video says it all. Love this beast of a build
|
This is one of the shortest, yet coolest builds I have seen on here. I need to start coming back more often.
