Getting ready to order a driftmotion 60-1 turbo kit this week and get everything else to get the motor in the car.
|
Wow that Coupe looked like shit & you made it look pretty damn good...I would of looked at it & looked the other way for another shell lol, but 1JZ's are good engines & you wont be disappointed...Welcome to the Club!
|
looks like you're off to a good start, can't wait to see what you end up with.
all these jz swaps are making me super motivated to finish mine haha. |
Nice start, the 1j is very budget friendly compared with a 2j haha glwb!
|
Thanks. I almost didnt get the shell when i first went to look at it. Under further inspection it was in to good of shape to pas up. The underside of the car was in great shape, no rust and just a couple dings on the body. I am sure i wont be dissapointed in the 1JZ . I chose it over a rb because of reliabillity and parts availability here in the states. Updates soon.
|
i like this build, clean too. not some shitty drift missle build. A for you sir.
|
I like where this is going! Props on reviving that coupe shell!
|
This looks like its gonna be a nice build
|
Thanks for all the compliments . I should start having updates soon. I will be ordering almost all the rest of the parts I need Monday .
