Hi Guys, So I thought I'd start a build thread on the 2J conversion into my skyline incase any of you are interested. Im a fourth year apprentice mechanic at Toyota so sourcing genuine toyota parts for under trade price is handy. History: Bought a 1992 Nissan Skyline R32 Gtst in Christmas 2011 which already had an engine converson for a RB25. Was done a bit on the dodgy side so i spent the time and money fixing it all up to get it roadworthy and running the way it should. After having it registered for only a month I decided to take it to a drift track day up in Mackay to try it out. Had a ball the first few laps but then started smoking everywhere. Popped the bonnet and oil was spewing out of the PCV pipe fittings. Undid the oil cap with it running and the blow-by was rediclous... Took it home and compression tested it the next day to find cylinder 5 only had about 100 psi. Yet to pull the head off the engine to see what went wrong exactly but i suspect a cracked piston or chipped ring land. I looked into rebuilding the 25 or building up a 25/30 but they just werent quite what I wanted. I have always admired supras and the reliability and the power potential of the 2JZ. So I decided im going to put a 2J into my 32 In the end I want a streetable daily that I can drive to work and back but will also take the abuse of weekend drifting events and constant limiter love during late night skids. So first I went off researching what I want in the engine part of the build. Wanting to make over 500hp, not to concerned about power figures cause every dyno is different, etc. As long as it is responsive enough for drifting and fun and games on the street. Being daily driven I want to leave it on pump gas BP98. But in order to make the most of the new GTX range of turbo chargers I want to give the tuner the potenial to tune for reasonably high boost. So I am looking at a meth injection kit to add too the setup down the track. Heres what I came up with: Some of this has already been put into play other parts have yet to be decided on and purchased. Head: Mildly ported head GSC S1 cams Titan Motorsports Adjustable Cam Pulleys Brian Crower Valve Springs and Retainers Genuine Valve Stem Seals - (Genuine Toyota full engine gasket kit including headgasket etc) Ferrea Valve Guides Ferrea 6000 Competion Valves - Std Size Block: Genuine Toyota Headgasket Genuine Toyota Oil Pump ARP Headstud Kit ARP Rod Bolt Kit ARP Mainstud Kit ACL Race Series Main Bearings ACL Race Series Rod Bearings ACL thrust washer set Hastings Piston Rings - Std Size Hot side: Yet to decide between a Garrett GTX3582R or a GTX3076R - either way it will get a T4 Twin Scroll 1.06 rear housing. MXP Custom T4 Twin Scroll manifold - Ceramic coated in black Aeroflow or DEI Titanium Turbo Blanket Turbosmart 50mm Pro-Gate wastegate Custom turbo oil and water lines. Custom Exhaust system - Thinking a Magnaflow cat and muffler Intake: Standard intake manifold Standard throttle body modified to delete traction control butteryfly Fuel system: Standard fuel rail with 6AN fitting tapped into fuel pressure reg port 8AN braided stainlesss steel fuel feed lines 6AN braided stainless steel return lines Nippon Denso 800cc Injectors Aeromotive A1000 FPR Bosch 044 Fuel Pump Custom alloy under car surge tank - or just an in boot setup seeing as you cant buy an off the shelf under car tank for an r32 that I know of Walbro intank lift pump Driveline: R154 gearbox - remote shifter type Custom tailshaft NPC 5 puk sprung center carbotic button twin plate clutch NPC hydraulic throw out bearing Light weight billet steel flywheel As part of this conversion I will be prettying up the engine bay by doing a wire tuck, moving the battery to the boot, moving the washer bottle to the boot, hiden coolant bottle, respray the engine bay and removing alot of unneccessary brackets off the vehicle. Looking at using a Haltech PS2000 ECU with fully terminated harness, boost solenoid, Wideband sensor, and EGT sensor. Standard coil packs are looking at bit sad so they will most likely get replaced with either genuine standard items again or MOJO LS2 2JZ coil packs. List of mods the car already has: Crossmember cut and shut to move steering rack forward, R33 front brakes, Steering rack-end spacers, Hardrace adjustable rear camber arms, Rear subframe collars, Modified bumps stops - ground to near nothing. Other bit and bobs I would like to get as part of the build: 52mm Koyo or PWR alloy radiator, AU falcon thermo fans or Spal fans or similar (will be controlled by the Haltech), Tein super street coilovers, Cusco front strut brace, Ultraracing one peice rear strut brace, Slotted rotors and some decent brake pads all round. Would like to get the knuckles modified to make use of the steering rack being moved forward. Will track down a S13 Non Hicas or R32 GTR rear swaybar. Considering removing rear seats and adding a half cage. Wheels currently on the car are Lenso D1R's Fronts - 18 x 9 +32 wrapped in a 225/40R18 Federal 595 SS. Looking to go up to a +15 offset in these wheels due to currently touching chassis rails at full lock. Rears - 18 x 10 +22 wrapped in a 235/40R18 of the cheapest tyre I could buy at the time cause they just dont last however with this new found power I wont be cheaping out. Will spend the money on a decent set of tyres. Probably semi slicks. Here is a photo of the 32 and the aristo half cut side by side on a typical sunday. Had the fuel tank out of the 32 cause I was using it to run the half cut to make sure it was all good before pulling it apart. Will upload more photos within the next few days

In the process of cleaning out my garage, I have come across a HKB dummy harness for SRS equipped cars. Part number is HKB-HN and is exactly the same as this: http://www.rhdjapan.com/hkb-sports-airbag-dummy-harness-srs-airbag-equipped.html Item is brand new and hasn't been used. $15

Hi All, I posted this in Supraforums, but i was also advised to post in this forum too. After 8 glorious years of ownership, the time has come to say goodbye to my pride and joy. We now need a larger vehicle. I have loved this car to bits and I want it to go to a good home. It is a very well kept 1998 SZ-R. 6sp Manual and factory optioned with Torsen LSD, Getrag Gearbox & larger brakes. Has clocked 107,700kms. It is in great condition. Only the front lip is a little damaged and needs some TLC. The car has always been garaged. Better still - i have kept this car unmodded. If you're into your mods, why not use this as a canvas? I am the first owner since import into W.A. Still drives like a dream and has recently had it's 100k service. I have service history documents since my ownership, which i'm happy to provide. I also have the rear spoiler (taken off). It is in excellent condition. It is included in the price, but comes unfitted. I'm asking $16,990. I think this is a very reasonable price for this rare vehicle. Contact Bobby on 0404 023 010.

Seller Details Name: Michael Location: Melbourne Phone: 0424 141 211 Price: $23500.00 Negotiable Vehicle Details Transmission: Factory 5MT Year: 1998 JZX Type: X100 Chaser Tourer V Colour: 6N9 KM: 123xxx Additional Details After a lot of thought I have decided I want to look into getting a cheaper daily/newer car. This is my third X100 and easily the best one that I have owned. It has been very reliable and a rewarding car to drive on the street and also the occasional track day. I received the car almost stock and all of the mods/parts/services have been done by myself or with the JZX guys @ 612 Autoworks. Many parts are less than 5000KM old. I am putting up the car as a complete package, but am willing to negotiate removal of parts for price adjustment. The car currently has rego up until end of May, however a renewal + RWC can be discussed. Here is a list of specs and some photos further down. Please contact me via mobile for any questions.

Brought these for my r32 but now no longer need them. Brand new never fitted to a vehicle and they come with sliders so will need rails for them. No time wasters please and I'm from Melbourne so no interstate buyers, don't have time to run around geting prices. Contact 0434409548 Chasing $450 but can do abit better. And also got a z32 afm with plug in good condition. $200 is what I paid as everyone sells for that amount or more, didn't get a chance to use it. It's genuine not a copy

Looking for offers around 24k negotiable. 2000 JDM Import 1JZ-VVTI S15 I'm looking at swapping to an Evo X for a more 'work suitable' car. Since I've owned this car, I've funnelled a lot of money into it to make it the best possible street/daily car. It's incredibly torquey and fun & easy to drive. Conversion was done by previous owner however I've spent a lot of time under this car, and the quality of the conversion is damned good. My Mechanic has carried out 1JZ swaps before, and couldn't fault the work done. Car is modplated for the engine & gearbox conversion, road registered and fresh 6 months rego put on 4 days ago. Chassis has 123,000ks on it and is perfectly straight. Engine Engine is stock, and comes on boost immediately. Cruising on the highway in 5th gear, if you touch the loud pedal more than 10% you're on boost. Car was dyno'd by last owner at 265RWHP, but it's the torque that feels amazing. The VVTI 1JZ improved both fuel economy, and a 20% increase to low down torque. Motor & Gearbox has 111,000ks on it, and had new HKS timing belt and major service at time of conversion (previous owner) Oil and filter changed 1000km ago (Penrite 10W40 Racing Oil & Ryco Z418 Oil Filter) Koyo Radiator & twin thermos - New Radiator hose installed last week 23/05/14 R154 5 speed Gearbox, Custom lightweight tailshaft to stock R200 diff Brand new OS Giken Grand Tourer Twin plate clutch w/ hard metal front cover (custom made by OS Giken and took 3 months to get from Japan), rated to 700hp, incredibly quiet for a twin plate and super easy to daily drive, converted from Push type clutch to Pull - This is a $2300 clutch and the best you can buy. OS Giken lightweight flywheel & new high tensile flywheel bolts New Spigot Bearing and Rear Main Oil seal installed at same time. Penrite 75W90 Gearbox Oil 3" custom exhaust with highflow cat (one of the most beautiful sounding cars I've driven) Turbosmart Boost Tee - only running 1 bar. Standard Turbo can run 18PSI reliably and standard 1JZ internals are good to 600-700hp. Upgraded Front Mount Intercooler (unsure of brand but it's about as big as you can fit under the front bar) Exterior 18x9.5 +20 Rota Dished wheels, 245/40/18 tyres all around Guards rolled - no scrubbing New front and rear tridon wiper blades ($100) Stock Body Kit Stock JDM Rear Wing OEM White Paint in good condition. 1 small stone chip on bonnet. May have been resprayed by previous owner. Interior Brand new TRD short shifter & shift knob, imported from Japan - Cost $350 Custom Black painted interior (over stock interior's easily scratched silver) - Sound/heat proofed the trim at the same time Defi Boost Gauge (previous owners - not sure if geniune) Defi Water temp gauge (previous owners - not sure if geniune) Viper Alarm System (LED Pager that alerts you when something goes on with the car up to 1 mile away) - Blue flashing light with sensors on windscreen says "Don't even think about trying to steal this car" - Alarm is freaking loud. Real Carbon Fiber Centre Console (Gearstick & Radio Surround) - Cost $200 Suspension SPL Titanium Pro Caster/Tension Rods ($300) Blitz 32 way adjustable coilovers Also have (not currently installed) Dakota Digital Tachometer adjuster ($180 from the states) (common issue when swapping to a bigger engine and keeping stock dash, tachometer is out by 1/2, this is a plug and play item that adjusts it to the correct RPM) Brand new in box Nismo 280k speedo ready to install ($350 from Japan) Custom black leather & red stitching shift boot, arm rest cover and handbrake boot ($60 imported from UK) Nismo strengthened clutch pedal bracket ($90 from Japan) I have receipts and logs for everything I've spent on this car. Comes with RWC

Regrettably for sale is my 2013 Toyota 86 GTS. I have owned the car since new and it has been an absolute joy owning and driving the car. Car was purchased from NorthPoint Toyota Hillcrest on North East Road in March 2013 and has never had any issues.The 86 was purchased with the colour Pegasus White (Pearl White) which looks absolutely stunning from any angle, especially when in the sun. Other options that were purchased from the dealer, when new, are: - Tinted windows at 35% all round (lowest legal tint), which have a life-time warranty. - Ceramic paint protection, which includes a 20 year warranty against paint bubbling, fading or discolouration. - 3 Year/150,000km Extended Factory Warranty, the car still has 1 year left of its original warranty and once that is complete the extended factory warranty starts and goes for another 3 years or up until 150,000km The car is always serviced on time at the dealer and also had its oil changed at the 1000km inspection service, which was requested by me, as I believe all new engines should have their oil changed at this time due to metal shavings in the oil from wear on new engines. Also at the 1000km engine oil change a magnetic sump plug was fitted to collect and hold any fine metal filings/fragments from the wear of the new engine. The car has only travelled 11,500km, most of which have been highway/freeway kms and easily gets 500km to a tank of fuel. More kms could be obtained from a tank of fuel if driven very lightly. Only BP Ultimate 98 octane fuel has ever been used since day 1. Car has always been taken care of and washed regularly as I treat all my cars like a baby. During my ownership of the 86 I have added a few aftermarket accessories to give the car that extra edge it was missing from factory. The following are the aftermarket accessories fitted to the car: - Invidia N1 Titanium Tipped 2.5" cat-back exhaust (Gives a great note with out being stupidly loud) - Apexi Hi-Flow panel air filter - Grazio & Co matte black Toyota emblem badges - Subaru BRZ side fender garnish/vent - Beatsonic shark-fin antenna (colour coded - Pegasus White) - TOM's clear L.E.D taillights - TRD petrol filler cap - TRD oil filler cap (made from billet steel) - TRD radiator cap - TRD green sound tube - Cusco carbon fibre front strut tower brace bar, with brake master cylinder stopper - Beatrush rear strut tower brace bar (does not need cutting of carpet like other brands do) - Phillips 6000K HID headlight globes (gives a whiter, brighter light) - L.E.D front fog lamps - L.E.D number plate lights - L.E.D reverse lights - 86 steering wheel badge - Greddy magnetic sump plug The above accessories really give the car a unique look and it gets looks everywhere it goes, while the exhaust and strut brace bars really make the car sound and perform much better than factory. I also have a few parts which haven't been put on the car as I haven't had time to do, these parts will be go with the car if sold for the right price: - Centre console arm rest mould (just needs to have leather or alacantra applied to it and its ready to go) - Navigation & Phone lock bypass (Allows driver to use the navigation & phone while driving instead of needing to be stopped) - Clear front and side/fendor indicator globes - Couple black interior bits (was planning on changing silver interior bits to black and carbon fibre parts but never got around to doing it) Also have original parts such as the exhaust, taillights (quite expensive items), antenna etc etc, which can go with the new owner if they want them. Car is priced at $35,000. I am slightly negotiable but please don't bother offering ridiculous offers, I am in no rush to sell this beautiful car. **Please Note** car will not be sold with premuim XX number plates. Standard issue plates will be fitted to the car prior to sale. Feel free to call, sms or email me and inspections are welcomed.
