Few pics of my jzx100 chaser, from Ireland!

Short spec list:

1.5jz, 2jz GTE bottom end, 1jz non vvti head, bc 272 cams, springs and retainers.

Walton motors manifold, g30-700 turbo, 50mm waste gate

Walbro 450 pump, Bosch 1000cc injectors, 2jz radium fuel rail.

Plenty more I could keep going 😂

Getting sick of the relentless spam in the other sub, glad to see another option pop up.

Since the model specific subreddit is basically dead and only bots post in it.

I have just about 0° camber in the rear on stock arms and blitz coils. Should there be enough adjustment to get some negative camber to dial in wheel fitment with stock arms?

First picture is it in current-ish condition going to detail it this weekend for the nice nice photoshoot, looking for a price range to list it for before tossing on fb marketplace.
Looking to move and can't take her with me(enough to make one cry), she has 90k miles, no issues, sadly an automatic tho. tien flex coil-overs, rays evolution iv 17" wheels, pristine interior even my vents are unbroken, front mount inter cooler with poorly modified front bumper, koyo rad, and roll center adjusters.

oil changes every 3.5k miles or 5k miles(depending on how long it took motul to ship my 10w40) from the original 36k miles i got it with. and oil catch can from radium(useless purchase actually)

Outside the bumper the car has been so loved, used to drive it every day until uh current gas crisis, making an hour drive on 93 every day was nearly wallet murder.

second pic was right after intercooler install on a track day, she looked so mean with just the intercooler out it was a nice photoshoot day.

Factory Tourer V Manual. I’ve had her for almost 4 years now with lots of maintenance and modifications along the way. Brought her to the States in the fall. Currently pending Full BN Kit Type II kit with front and rear fenders when it gets here next month.

Here is my shitbox 🤙🤙

Thought I’d get some more posts in here 🙂

So, who is this person who's made this new subreddit?

Well I'm a bit of a nerd for 90s Japanese cars, I have tons and tons of Option Video DVD's, magazines, and a whole lot of other things from Japan too.

Anyways,

This is my 1999 Factory turbo manual JZX100 Mark II

I imported this car around 6 years ago from Japan, it was mostly stock at the time.

Many many things have changed since I have owned it and many more things to come too!

I currently have the FULL genuine BN Sports kit to go on, currently waiting for some serial nine goodies to arrive too.

Early morning pictures!

It's a Grande 2.5 (1JZ-GE) from 1996 that I imported from Suriname to the Netherlands. She is a little rough around the edges and far from done, but a pure joy to own and drive.

After a lengthy (and cumbersome) import process, I have owned this car for roughly 4 years and have been driving it for roughly 1,5 years.

So what has been done?

- Lowered on HSD coilovers 18k/12k

- Cusco camber FUCA

- a lot of replacing worn bushings and parts

- s2 rear conversion

- custom dual exit rear muffler

- Blitz BRW 08 18"x9,5" ET30

- Replica OE style aero

- self painted two-tone in a horse barn somewhere environmental police won't show up

- factory Mark II C-pillar badges

- a built-in Playstation 2 signed by Sung Kang

- black housing headlights

What plans are on the horizon?

- the obvious 1JZ-GTE swap, but unsure of what figures I want to eventually push. Very likely keeping the gte stock for a good while

- debating between a standard 5 or 6 speed manual swap or an 8hp swap

- Cusco LSD (and the needed Tourer axles)

- Rays Volk GT-V

- full aftermarket suspension arms

- stiffening the car with a rear sway bar, front strutbar and possibly stiffer front springs

- shortening spindles and getting RCA

- a lot of bodywork

- hopefully a Traum bodykit

- new paint

- plus the never ending list of things you want to do to a passion project

This has been my "achievable" dream car since I got my license nearly 10 years ago, so it feels amazing to own it and drive it and can't wait to keep messing with it until it's completely to my liking!

Doing a quick intro post to kick off the new sub.

1999, Chaser Tourer V with the Grand package (so wood finish interior, grey alcantara interior but otherwise the same)

I got it in late 2018 and while it was my daily for a year or two post lockdown it's just a weekend toy now.

Mods are...

A80 rear and TRD front breaks, Mu pads, discs and lines.

HKS HiperMax IV coilovers

Genji Miki exhaust (fairly straight from the cat but sits lower than other brands)

ARC air filter box and intake.

I also have the ARC side mount intercooler but that was replaced with a Golby's kit last year.

TOM's brace kit, so trunk bar, front and rear braces and strut brace

Cusco rear strut brace

BBS LM wheels

and it's got a few dress up bits from Weld, Tomei etc.

I do have a Link G4X, Haltech wideband and some Serial 9 subframe bits in boxes ready to go on at some point.

After that I'll look into the fuel system, clutch and some turbo goodies funds permitting.
